    As you probably know, Illustrator today allows to change this behavior with a dedicated option in Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display section.

    However, it’s not that accessible, especially when you are already move and copy your artboards.

    If you wish this option to be more exposed, consider upvoting this request: Display Move Locked and Hidden Artwork with Artboard option in Control panel and Properties while using Artboard tool / mode

    Thanks Neeraj, good to see movement on this. Is there a way I can update to the beta version when it comes out?

    This was a very poorly thought out feature.
    If Adobe introduce changes like this, why not include the old behaviour as default, and have a simple toggle in preferences if users want to switch to the new behaviour? (or the other way round even, just give people the option.)

    As a workaround for those who need access to the old behaviour, it's possible to download an older version of Illy through the adobe creative cloud manager/installer and use that instead. You can access the manager by clicking Help > Updates
