    Done (Available in Beta)  ·  AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) responded

    This problem is reportedly fixed (finally!) in the latest Beta Build 30.5.0.18. You can update and test if it’s truly gone.

    However, please not there are some known issues with this particular build:

    • Opening recent files from Home Screen Recent section is not working (opening recent files from File > Open Recent Files works fine).
    • Generative Expand does not open its own HUD when used after Generate Vector, Generative Shape Fill, or Sketch to Vector. Instead, the previous tool's HUD is displayed and Generative Expand remains inaccessible. Workaround: Ungroup the generative content first, then apply Generative Expand.
    • Half of Astute Graphics plugins can’t get loaded. Both teams are now aware of the problem.

    Any updates on fixing this bug, Adobe? It was logged SIX YEARS AGO, it has more than ten votes (the criteria for fixing), and it's on the bugs backlog, yet there's still no sign of a fix, or even an update. Why is this not being fixed?

    As per the comment, the most accessible way to create multiple artboards is to draw multiple rectangles with required dimensions and positions, followed by the Convert To Artboards command.

    There are multiple ways to create several rectangles fast: Transform Again command, an expanded blend, Split into Grid command.
