    An indented way to achieve this now is to create a simple action.

    1. Create an action

    2. Select some art

    3. Create a new Layer with a button in the Layers panel

    4. Object > Arrange > Send to Current Layer

    5. End recording

    Actions are great for automating various routines we have in Illustrator, and this is just one of them. If you think it still should be a native operation instead (or an action to be included in standard Actions pack) — please vote and comment.

    Hello here. This is 2019 and I love how this idea came up 3 years ago. I would like to support this idea more if it is possible. I was trying to create tree ideas of a logo on a three art boards which I like to do as it helps me in exporting them as individual pieces. Then I thought what if I could have the assets of the first Artboard's layer copied on the second Artboard's layer? but wait is that even possible in Illustrator? Then I found out that the Adobe team did a good job incorporating an Artboard panel that allows to see artboard lists and selecting to switch from one to another easily. But what about the assets that are on the Artboards, can we see them in that same panel? Well I am not sure. So, why not have that option to copy or move assets from one artboard layer to another but specifically on layer that is parented on the specific artboard? I apologies for any grammar mistakes. Thanks
