Bug Description

  Hi all, I am asking for an option "only selection" in the "Save as..." menu. When checked, the saved graphic:

  1.- will only contain the selected items in the drawing

  2.- will have a page size/abutment box that exactly fits the selected items

 In question #46784 I describe a pair of scenarios where (I think) this option speeds up design flow.

  Best regards.

Based on the discussion in the mentioned question 46784 [1], this feature request is mostly about exporting a selection to other vector formats (PDF) - proposing to link as duplicate to bug #168627.
