Is there a way to use actions to "set artboard to selected" and transform artboard "+6"

[@ryanj2235]

I've asked around but it seems what I want to do with actions is not possible. Nobody seems to have an answer. I can do it manually but the last step doesn't want to record. If I have a rectangle and want to modify the artboard to constrain to the artwork i go Object/Artboards/Fit to Artwork Bounds or Fit to selected art it records Select All but doesn't record anything else. Doesn't actions work with artboards?

Thanks for the comment Ryan, yes it looks like adjusting Artboards isn't something that can be recorded via Actions unfortunately. There a re a few things that can't be recorded like applying effects for example and from trying it myself it looks like Artboard adjustments are the same 😞 Sorry I couldn't be more help on this
