Wish list
Love the new XD, some ideas below that have come to mind.
Export mock styleguides for Devs to follow (or not follow). Could be similar to InDesign packaging export
Built in colour contrast analyser
Screen reflowing like Edge Reflow, so the designs don’t adhere to device sizes.
More shape options
Smart fields auto complete for text etc
Paragraph styling like InDesign for fast text application (make this global across all art boards)
Link to a pattern library and Adobe Kular
Able to annotate and add notes to prototypes
XD can export good clean CSS/HTML
Cheers

Dear all,
Please find my wishlist listed here:
Option to select all unused components, and delete them.
Selecting more than one component and change the state all at once.
When I open a file, I don't want the layer/component panel open by default.
Option to hide the left and right panels.
When I select a line, I should be able to use the eyedropper to pick a color for it. -

Additional blur value. RIght now Figma has a much stronger blur option and because of that making smooth backgrounds, visuals are much more appealing there. It is simple step but I think it would bring a lot
