Activity Forums Adobe Illustrator Two art boards created when one selected

  • Two art boards created when one selected

    Posted by John Rich on December 20, 2018 at 1:17 pm

    I got CS5 many years ago but I just noticed that when I selected a video preset (HDV 1920×1080) and one artboard in the initial window, that two artboards were created, one 14400 px square and the other 1920×1080. I was wondering if this was a bug and had been corrected in later versions, or whether there was some purpose to this. I don’t see any harm in deleting the second artboard.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hmm. Never noticed that. 14400 pixels sounds like the maximum extents of the drawing area. No harm in deleting that artboard, if it interferes with something in your workflow (such as exporting with artboards).
