    Starting with Beta 29.7.1 the Rearrange dialog got a separate dedicated feature, currently called 'Align Manually'.

    With it disabled, artboards get positioned instantly in the center of the canvas, as it behaved previously.

    When this is enabled, you will enter the positioning mode after pressing OK — to allow rearranging only some artboards, to address this request.

    With more than 1 artboard selected (but not all), the mode gets enabled automatically (and becomes locked).

    Why does Adobe feel they constantly have to make what works better? That is why your programs have been so prolific and stand the test of time.

    This is an awful feature. "Upgrade" ... this significantly impacts the workflow. So your team messed up badly. Change the feature back, or start giving the options to stay in legacy modes.
