Measure via text baseline
Generate specs to be to the end of the last letter vs. the actual text box
It would be nice if the developer can see the height of the text based on the baseline rather than the text box itself. Sometimes text boxes are much longer than the copy inside of them (if the designer forgets to reduce the height of the box), then the developer will not get an accurate reading of padding between elements because the box is oversized.

See file/layer structure in design specs
As an added feature, similar to what Avacode and Sympli provide, it would be nice to display the layers panel in design spec mode. The user can select a layer and it will highlight in the document art board.

Click the label and copy the hex color code as a simple code snippet
Currently you can see the hex color code and copy to your clipboard (i.e. #ffffff). To save a step in programming, it would be nice to copy a code snippet instead (i.e. background-color: #f0f0f0;).

Character styles—order by size, color, weight (similar to Zeplin)
I think it would be helpful if the Character Styles were listed in groups in order of the font that has the largest size. Since devs are usually programming things by defining the biggest to smallest (H1 > H2 > H3 > P), this would help us to see what we're up against. Next, if we added in a second font weight with a variety of colors, we would collect by the size-1st, color-2nd and weight-3rd (favoring the lighter weight to be listed first).

Design Specs Screen View – Screen Scrolling Option
This request is from my developers. They asking if it is possible to have scrollbars on the individual screen views instead of the just the panning. Their complaint is that when the screens are really long, it takes a while scrolling with your mouse scroll wheel versus grabbing a scrollbar and dragging it to the bottom or desired location much quicker.

Clearly denote when design specs have comments associated
There's no way of knowing if there's a comment added to design spec unless you actually click the comment icon - and that icon is not very visable or explanatory. Would be nice if there was some sort of visual cue marker letting me know if the spec file contains comments or not. I checked with several developers both inhouse and externally and none of them knew I had placed comments cause its totally out of sight and mind when there's nothing warning them - like a red icon or a marker somewhere for instance? As it is now I…

Arrows in XD Design spes
It would be nice to have an arrow feature to show the visual flow. I know you can see the flow, but it would be nice to have more of a visual arrow flow.

Widen Scroll Bar on Layers Window.
The scroll bar for the layers window is narrow and takes precise mouse work to select it on a laptop or high resolution screen. Double the thickness so it is easy to select and drag. Great app.

Overview of styles for entire Design Spec
It is not easy to manage all the colors and styles in a design in XD
There is no overall design specs for all artboards in the design specs nor in XD, making it hard to review all design styles in 1 place.
Colors and Character Styles in assets can't be use as style guide/ in app design specs, the current version is not favoring this functionSomething similar to this suggestion is needed but with more function

"Hide Layout grid" shouldn't turn it off in Design Spec
When you hide layout grid in Design mode, you don't just hide it - you turn it off completely. That is a problem, becaouse when you do it, it disappears from Design Specs. So, either rename the command to "Turn off Layout grid" (because that's what really happens) and add another function for just hiding it, or allow its visibility in design spec even when its turned off.
Point is that when you do design you often hide the grid for better visibility. But - when you publish your design spec, you must remember to turn it on in all…

Publish Design Spec on Save
Design Specs have quickly become an integral part of our workflow. It would be incredibly helpful if there was an option on Save that would allow you to Publish a Design Spec at the same time, thereby making it so every time the designer saves, the developer can have updated Design Specs.

PDF design specs
We need to be able to output design specs to PDF - not all of our clients can access the design specs URLs due to security constraints on their networks so being able to email static PDF design specs is essential to what we do.

Customize HEX color code rules in Design Specs
When I copy HEX color codes to clipboard in Design Specs, I can get the color code like this:
FF12BF
FFFFFF
But, sometimes I want to get the color code like this:
ff12bf
ffffff
Or like this:
ff12bf
fff
Or like this:
FF12BF
FFF
So, I want to choose HEX color code rules in Design Specs.
I think that engineers will support XD by responding to various coding rules.3 votes -
word count
Going from UX to UI I need to give my client a general word/character count so a copy writer can write to what the design is. Would be great to have a "show word/character count" somehow integrated. I currently copy paste everything into a word counting tool, and then document the word counts in a PDF. Super time consuming.

Browser notifications on specs link update
It would be nice to get a notification when a specs link has been updated. This could be a browser notification or another way.
Because now when I make a change tot the design, I have to send everyone a email asking to them to refresh their browser to see the changes.

Px to Pt Converter
For people using Xamarin to develop Mobile Apps we need a Px's to Pt's conversion on the design specs. We are doing a lot of work converting those numbers when developing. Seems to me that a converter would be fairly easy.
