Basic functionality present in Sketch but lacking in XD
It would be nice to be able to achieve some of the things I can so in Sketch but not in XD
For example, It would be nice if I were able to do some very basic image editing within XD, without having to open photoshop, such as colorizing, objects (icons) and images on the fly.
Also, it would be super awesome if it were possible simply to eliminate backgrounds and create transparencies on the backgrounds on raster based objects within the Adobe XD application.
Some might say that these functionalities are over the top, but after having some of these abilities in programs like Sketch I can tell you that it's a major load-off as a UX/UI designer and it contributes to the work flow, to be able to more rapidly apply some of these functions within the app itself.
Not being able to do some of this has proved to be a legitimate pain-point for me.
Also, let's get those bullet points working! :)
