Saving selected elements - please help! :)


hello, have illustrator artwork , want save different elements on artwork new files without saving whole artboard?

 

i can't seem find simple way this? have tried copying selection, opening new document , pasting still have adjust artboard fit super fiddly.... (not in photoshop sizes artboard size of copied selection).

 

am missing simple?! have heaps of little elements need save separately (without huge artboard behind them) , think might go crazy if need create new specifc size artboard each of them.

 

pleasehelp me not go crazy...

select artboard tool (shift + o), in control bar @ top of screen presets menu choose fit selected art. have in mind artboard doesn't matter unless save pdf used in other programs or want clip artboard when exporting raster images. press shift + ctrl + h hide , there no artboard bother me , don't care @ size. @ end size of printer paper determine frame, or pixel size if creating screen graphics. if know output size before creating graphics use artboard frame artwork, if don't know output, framing objects artboard waste of time.

 

edit: forgot there 1 useful function size of artboard during work ctrl + 0 frame artboard in window. if doing reason makes sense.
