- [Instructor] In this movie,
I'll show you how to navigate between artboards
as well as how to change the order of the artboards
here inside the Artboards panel.
Now, I'm going to start off by just messing things up
a little bit and I'm going to use that using the Artboard Tool,
which you can get by pressing shift+O.
Then, I'll go ahead and select artboard A right here
and drag it up to this location
and then I'll drag artboard six down like so.
I'm just moving things fairly randomly at this point.
I'll drag artboard eight down.
I'll move five down as well.
I like to move B over a little bit,
bit if I do, I end up snagging artboard two.
I don't want that so I'll go ahead press control+Z
or command+Z on Mac to undo that change.
Then, I'll just scroll up using the scroll wheel
on my mouse and I'll grab artboard two
and I'll move it up and out of the way
and I'll make sure that these other artboards
are out of the way as well,
then I'll move artboards B and A over like so.
And now, I'll go up the View menu
and choose Fit All in Window
so I can see all of my artboards
at the same time.
And now, I'm going to change my letters and numbers
so that they're all numbers and they're in order.
And I'll do that by switching to the Type Tool,
the one that looks like a capital "T".
And that will also take me out of the artboard editing mode.
And then I'll just go ahead and drag over the A
and change it to a five,
I'll change the B to a six,
the six to a seven,
the seven to an eight, the eight to a nine,
and finally, the five to a zero.
And then, I'll just go ahead and press the escape key,
in order to return control to the black arrow tool.
All right, now, at this point,
with the Artboards panel on screen,
and as you may recall, you can get to that panel
by going up to the Window menu
and choosing the Artboards command.
But I want you to notice something here.
If the command has a check mark in front of it,
and you choose it, then you will hide that panel
as I've done in this case.
And so, to bring it back, I will go to the Window menu
and chose Artboards once again.
And now, I can double click
on any artboard to zoom in on it.
So I'll just double click on a empty portion
of artboard one, and that will zoom me in on that artboard.
Then I'll double click on artboard two,
artboard three, artboard four, and so forth.
But notice when I double click on artboard five,
that I see that it has a zero on it.
So, I'm going to go ahead and rename this artboard
by double clicking on its name,
which will go ahead and light up that name,
so that I click after the five and replace it with a zero.
Then, I'll double click on an empty portion of artboard six
in order to navigate to it.
It's got a seven on it,
so I'll just go ahead and change
its name to artboard seven.
Then, I'll double click on artboard seven,
it's got an eight on it,
so I'll change its name to artboard eight.
Then, I'll double click on artboard eight,
it's got a nine, so I'll change its name.
And I'll double click on artboard A.
It's got a five, so I'll change its name accordingly.
And finally, I'll double click
on artboard B an empty portion.
It's got a six, so I'll double click on its name
and change it to artboard six.
All right now, another way to navigate between artboards
is to press shift along with the page up or page down key.
So, if I double click on artboard one,
then I will go ahead and navigate to it.
And then if I press shift+page down,
I'll navigate to the next artboard,
which contains a two.
If I press shift+page up, I'll navigate
to the previous artboard, which contains a one.
Now, you also have the option
of clicking on this Next button,
down here in the bottom left corner of the document window.
So clicking Next is the same as pressing shift+page down,
whereas clicking Previous, this guy right here,
is the same as clicking shift+page up.
If you want to advance to the last artboard
in the document, you can click on the Last button.
If you want to go to the first one,
you click the on this First button.
Or, you can take advantage
of a couple of additional keyboard shortcuts.
And so, if you press control+shift+Page down
you will advance to the last artboard,
which in our case is artboard six
because it's the last one in the list.
And if I press control+shift+page up
that's going to be command+shift+page up on the Mac,
then you advance to the very first artboard
which is the one at the top of the list.
All right, so let's say I advanced to artboard four
for a moment here, and then I press shift+page down,
I'm going to advance to artboard zero,
and that's because artboard zero is the next one
in the list here inside the Artboards panel.
So, in other words, it really doesn't matter
what the artboard names are.
You can call them whatever you want.
But their order does matter.
And so if you want to be able to advance
from artboard four to artboard five,
then they need to be in order
here inside the Artboards panel.
All right, so I'm going to click in the paste board
to deselect that zero.
Just because, it's bugging me.
And now, I'll click on artboard five
and shift click on artboard six
and I will drag them up the list
until they fall immediately after artboard four.
Another way to work is to select an individual artboard,
such as zero, and then you can take advantage
of these Move Up and Move Down icons.
So if I click Move Up, then I will move artboard zero
between artboards five and six.
And if I click Move Down, then I will ultimately
move it to the end of the list,
which is exactly what I want.
So now, if I double click on artboard four,
in order to navigate to it,
and I press shift+page down,
will advance to artboard five,
followed by artboard six, seven, eight,
nine, and finally, zero.
Meaning that, all of my artboards are now in order.
And just so that we can see all of them at the same time,
I'll return to the View menu
and choose Fit All in Window.
And that is how you navigate between artboards
as well as change the order of the artboards
here inside the artboards panel.
