      Saw this Instagram reel video that shows how you can click on the art board tool in the vertical tool panel and then select on a design and it creates an artboard trimmed right to that size. Really handy. Also like the export multiple option as well right after

          I would prefer double-click, and it could work for multiple selected objects — select 5 objects/groups >> double-click the Artboard tool >> artboards under each one.

            @b77 yes, totally agree. That would make it more useful

              @Boldline This is very interesting, and it looks simple.
              The click will not work if there is an artboard underneath.
              Added this to the backlog.

                I agree - there would need to not be an artboard underneath in order for it to work. I like the dual option of double-clicking on the unselected item to create the perfect artboard fit and also what @b77 suggested with selecting multiple items and getting artboards for each at one time
