Easily resize/snap Artboard edges to match content bounds
Working on a landscape prototype version of a site, and to simulate the scrollable pages I bring the assets in, place them, and then adjust the height of the Artboard to match — but it would be really nice if there were Smart Guides when doing so, so the Artboard snaps to the height of the assets on the page.
Size of artboard should fit content exactly.

@Peter, still though, it would be nice to be able to quickly adjust the artboard size to fit the content bounds.
My current workflow (e.g when I want the height to snap to a footer element) is to select the footer > calculate Y position plus footer height > select artboard > edit artboard height value.
This could be easily circumvented by having smart guides for content bounds in combination with artboard resizing.

If you want to create an artboard whose initial size exactly matches some selected artwork on the pasteboard, please see https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/13223664-create-artboard-matching-size-of-selected-elements

When I drop artwork onto an artboard, and the artwork extends outside of the artboard, I simply want to adjust the bottom of the artboard to snap to the bottom of the artwork so that I can quickly define the scrollable canvas.

Looking for something similar to Illustrator that resizes the artboard to artwork bounds.
