How to replicate Artboard dimensions and make it a custom "permanent" option ?

Two parts (that are sort of related):

 

1) How do I replicate the dimensions of an artboard to another artboard (without having to copy the entire contents) ?

2) How can I setup a "permanent" new artboard size that will be avialable when creating a new artboard.

 

Any help appreciated, I cant find out how to do this via help doco. 

Thanks

Hi @kamen rider deibiddo , let me answer your questions with the information I have:

1- I'd just copy & paste that artboard and delete the contents to create a new & empty version of it by selecting artboard (by clicking the artboard name at top left or easier, selecting the "select" tool (with the shortcut "V") and double clicking to an empty part of the artboard and just ctrl/cmd-c and ctrl/cmd-v. Or, with the artboard selected, holding shift-alt and dragging the artboard to anywhere I want my new artboard to be positioned. 

2- As far as I know this is not possible yet, someone might correct me if it is, meanwhile, you can upvote this feature request: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007-adobe-xd-feature-requests/suggestions/13337769-add-custom-artboard-size-preset Hope this helps.
