Features That Will Really Improve The Workflow
So, I have been using XD since the start of this app and I really enjoy it, but as I was previously using Sketch app and when I shifted to XD. I usually get stuck in doing many things. Below is the list of features that XD should add:
Text Gradients
Adding text gradients is very necessary as sometime we want to give a 3D look to our text using gradients and it is very difficult to do it in XD. I think it would be good to have a same dropdown as for shapes.Multiple Fills
That is another very important feature and it should be addedScissor Tool For Vector Shapes
Creating charts have been often a request from clients and boolean operations in XD are good, but we should have a scissor tool through which we can easily cut the part between two points on the pathRounded Corners of A Border
When we crop a circle in half with a rectangle, there is no way to make its border edges rounded.Typography Tools
Add some more tools to the text, i-e: Uppercase, Lowercase, First Letter Cap, Bold & Italic buttons for those fonts that don't have these types.Gradient Postion Handles Inside The Color Picker
I was trying to adjust the position of a gradient today and it was really hard as I had many gradient points and even the keyboard arrows weren't working fine. There should be a bar with points inside the color picker and number field to enter the position manuallyEasy Export Assets
Place a button near the layers button for exporting assetsBuilt-in Customizeable Grids
Tool for adding and customizing gridsControls For Path Points
Easy options to convert a point/handle into different types of points/handlesAbility To Add Extensions
We all love extensions as the really improve our workflow. So must add the prior to the final release so that we can all make some custom functionalities
