With this method u cannot save real vector image

@BoQsc Thanks for pointing that out. I also noticed it because the resulting file had the same size as the source file.

I'm looking for a method for saving a selection into a different SVG file without saving the other objects. I would really appreciate if anyone could tell me how to accomplish this.

In 2019

There was an effort to make Save as Copy dialog window to have Export selected objects only checkbox.
https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/867

Something went wrong, as these changes no longer are included in the latest master branch, therefore the latest Inkscape program.
I suspect, recently, the author of the source code simply rewritten all functionality of the Inkscape Save Dialog and lazily forgot about the need to re-add and rethink the idea of Exporting selected objects to .svg file.

So we don't have it anymore, even if we had it for some small period of time as the above merge-request suggests.

this step "Select "Resize page to drawing or selection" saves me after 1 hour looking for a solution. Thanks !

AAA TYSM

I mean, I just copy-pasted the selection to a new document and went from there. Works perfectly. So the steps are:

1. Select object.
2. Copy object (Ctrl-C).
3. Create a new document (Ctrl-N).
4. Paste object (Ctrl-V).
5. Resize page to selection (Ctrl-Shift-R).
6. Save (Ctrl-S), select the Optimized SVG format and customize the setting or leave as is and click OK.

Just Ctrl+Shift+E : it will open the export tool, with tabs for "document", "page", "selection" and "personalized" scopes, no need for obscure tricks this time.

Thanks bro!
It's the best answer I've found.
