Custom screen size presets

Im currently doing some UI/UX for a product that is expected to have a small 480x272 screen due to cost reasons. I can of course make this in XD, but if I close XD, it will not remember the custom layout, and every new artboard is one of the presets.

 

How can I create a custom screen size template to get around this issue? Thanks.

edit: I'm specifically talking about custom artboard templates. I'd like to add to the list. And, by new artboard, I mean when creating new ones with the tool. My existing artboards are fine.

    Currently you cannot make a preset, but you could create a blank artboard with your desired size and then copy and paste it to make new artboards. You can Opt/Alt drag to make copies, or use Cmd/Ctrl-C to copy and Cmd/Ctrl–V to paste.
