    We finally got the control over the active artboard border color.

    In Beta 30.1.0.89, in Preferences > Selection & Anchor Display, in the new Artboard Display section, we now can choose the color and the border width in pixels — black, 1 px by default, as usual. We can set it 4 px maximum

    The border tries to get aligned by center, but stays pixel-perfect, so choosing 3 is safe. Color choices are the same as we get with layers’ colors, with a custom option as well.

    There’s no way to tweak inactive artboards’ borders. Please comment if this solution is working for you and if there’s anything you need to have it perfect.

    Event with their good intentions for HiDPI, I think it's imperative to give users customized options now that the team has changed the boundary.

    The latest Beta Build 29.6.91 introduces first changes to the way how recent font section works. Now Ai tries to find the position of the currently chosen font in the main list.

    There are several known issues.

    • If you deselect a text and select it again — Ai will still jump to the recent section’s font when we open the dropdown
    • The recent section is not fixed and gets scrolled while navigating the list, making the access to recent fonts harder that it is now in the General build

    Please try to test it and leave comments.

    The font list always starts at the top when you expand the menu. If you type "M" to jump forward in the list you can only view those "M" fonts before you scroll back to "A" (top of list). If you type "My" you can only see fonts with "My" and nothing else.

    The old versions would always expand the menu so that you would be at the font you have currently selected. I would love this feature back.

    I explore fonts a lot, the current situation with the menu is really debilitating.
