Integration with Adobe Animate CC

If i create an artboard in photoshop, illustrator, etc i should be able to import those artboards into XD without having to access the original file to make edits such as text changes, images swaps, vector shape edits...

also, i should be able to use animations from flash/after effects to bring in loading screens, sliders, reveals, popups, etc that work within XD (and iphone)

    It would be great to import from Animate to XD as a video but MORE IMPORTANTLY, it would be amazing to import boards from Adobe XD to Animate. Currently, Illustrator layers can be imported into Animate. Why not XD???

    I've recently joined a marketing team working on animated banner ads and it would have been so ideal to import XD boards. As a UX/UI designer/digital director, XD is my tool of choice and would pair extremely well integrating with Animate.

    Consider the market for digital advertisers, could be BIG!!!!

    Idea 1: It could use the component system where you can round trip a state animation from Animate CC (Active, Hover, Press)

    Idea 2: Allow animated symbols to live inside Shared Libraries. Enable the ability to choose the trigger to start and stop animation. Perhaps using the Overlay function.

    Idea 3: Make a component and an "Open in Animate" in the contextual menu to add a timeline animation to the component.

    All in all, adding this integration will give Adobe Animate a HUGE boost in use.

    It would be helpful to be able to take a DX layout and import/export the entire layout into Animate CC and when doing so have the option to add the elements to individual or single layers.

  • utkiupe commented  ·   ·  Report

    not sure why this is still not done but at least a copy past that would keep the element as a path would be a minimum

  • Alan Trebeschi commented  ·   ·  Report

    If I copy a path should be very useful to copy it in Adobe animate like a path, not an image

    Animate CC should have better integration with Adobe XD!!

    1st option of Integration : Adobe CC Library can help us in resolving this issue, If it can also support animated symbol inside library, then we can integrate Adobe Animate CC or Adobe After Effects for may be complex or micro-interactions as per the use case.

    2nd option of Integration : Similar to the integration of Animate + Indesign OR Dreamweaver via OAM package file support, smoothly synchronize with the animations built in the Animate CC. More on they could add a timeline triggers into this to control the animations.

    I guess both the methods do have their pros n cons but ADOBE has done great things earlier this year. wishing them luck :)

    Might be useful import animate symbols to xd for micro animation or import complete stage for animation. Then we can export on preview these animations.

    I was just intending for it to work seamlessly with other products... Like opening photoshop files in XD, being able to animate in flash and bring it over to XD, etc...

    Please add Adobe stock integration for it so that you can add profile picture to a circle or add a background to a square object etc
