1. Expand Stroke / Create Outlines (convert stroke to separate filled path)

   In Illustrator, I can draw an object and then use Expand to convert the strokes to a fill.

   I would like to be able to do this in XD

   Hi,

   I am happy to let you know that once with release of XD 41, we’ve also shipped the Outline Stroke feature.

   https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2021/06/08/inner-shadow-outline-stroke-angular-gradient-xd-styling-tools.html#gs.2ub0ul

   Happy designing!

2. Add multiple states inside symbols / smart objects / components / animation / interaction

   What do you think about something like this:

   Design mode while smart-object selected can show one more tab at app header with smart-object name. In the appearance panel at the right adds some fields while smart object is selected.

   To edit smart-object you should open tab with it and work as before, except that artboards name is the name for different state

   And You can place another smart object in a smart object ;)

   Dear XD Community -

   I’m glad to announce that we have introduced the ability to add Interactive Component States in XD 24. This means that you could now add and manage your component states variations from a single component while enabling you to define Hover and Tap interactions between them.

   We also preserve those states and interactions when you use those components across other XD documents. This means that you could have a single source of truth (Sticker sheet) for all your design system components with motion and interactivity baked into them. Any changes made to your master components in your source document will propagate to all linked components in all your projects so that your components are is always in sync.

   To learn more about component states and how to get stated with them please check:
   https://letsxd.com/states

   Watch out for many more improvements in this area in the coming months.

   But in the meanwhile, please give it a try and share with us the areas that you would like us to further improve upon or invest in.

   Thank You,
   Sherif

4. Flip vertical/horizontal

   I am trying to create icons in XD and want to make sure they are symetrical but there is no flip option in the edit menu.

   I tried to use the width, height and coordinates to do this but without guides, or the ability to unlock the ratio this does not work either

6. Sync colors in assets to fill/border swatches

   I am able to add colors to my assets panel, but when I click on those colors it changes the color of the fill without an option to change the stroke. It would be awesome if these could sync to the fill/border color palette. It's annoying when the color is in your assets but not in your swatch and you have to fill a shape just to copy the hex code to change the color of the stroke. See video.

   You can already do this! By default, you click on the assets panel to apply it quickly to the fill. However, if you want to apply the color to your border, you can right click the swatch in the assets panel and select “Apply to Border.” Hope that helps!

7. Color Themes support for XD CC Libraries

   I'm on W10. The library doesn't work at all. When I open the Xd my library items are absent. The only thing I was able to retrieve was some of my color library but all my vector files and color schemes is not available. I actually get sections I have never ever created! Like a section named Shapes. In the library item section I get the text "unsupported elements".

   So is everything I have in my CC library unsupported in Xd? I thought the main purpose of the library was to be able to use the items cross apps? Seems like everything is unsupported.

   Hi Everyone!

   We’re excited to announce that with XD May release, you could now create a single source of truth for all your colors, character styles, and components in an XD cloud document and reuse all your assets in your XD documents.

   With the linked assets feature, you can easily share and consume not only components — or what was formerly known as symbols — but colors and character styles as well. This is incredibly handy if you are sharing sticker sheet with your team or reuse design elements across projects.

   Linked Assets complement the workflow of linked components. When you modify a linked asset in the source document, all the consuming documents with those linked assets receive update notifications. From there, you can choose preview and accept the updates.

   To learn more about this feature check out:
   letsxd.com/whats-new
   helpx.adobe.com/xd/help/linked-assets.html

   Please give it a try and let us know what you think.

   Thank You!

11. The possibility of changing the fill color of each member of group object by changing the color of that group object

    The possibility of changing the fill color of each member of group object by changing the color of that group object

    I have the full subscription to all Adobe Cloud products and applications.

    Now I can change the color only of the single object, but if I group it (by pressing CTRL+G) the fill color of that object becomes unchangeable.

    That is VERY-VERY inconvenient, because that is VERY-VERY unintuitive.

    Why is that VERY-VERY unintuitive?

    Ok, just have a glance on it.

    Imagine that I've have selected 10 separate objects, and that each of them is not a group, but a single object.

    After just having selected those 10 simple objects, I can change their fill color without any problems.

    So, I tell myself: "Well, guy! It's VERY-VERY convenient in Adobe XD, because I can change the color of the whole group of 10 objects. Great!"

    Now, let me press Ctrl+G.

    After that simple and very-very intuitive key combination, all those 10 objects will be... converted to the group object in Adobe XD.

    Great?

    Yes. But...

    Well, but that's not great with the connection to group behavior in Adobe XD.

    Because now, after having grouped those my 10 objects, I BECOME UNABLE to continue changing the color of the newly emerged group object the same way that I have been doing that when that group object have been 10 still not grouped objects.

    So, it seem like grouping by Ctrl+G, because of some unknown reasons, punishes me for grouping objects, and also deprives me from the possibility of changing the fill color of the group object.

    That's VERY, VERY-VERY unintuitive, guys, and that really frustrates.

    But that is not only frustrating.

    That is even creating the mechanism of frustrating me and thus creates the strong feeling of unfairness.

    And that user-unfriendly feeling of unfairness inevitably emerges because the fill color of each object of the group of 10 simultaneously selected objects can be changed without any problem.

    But, just only a moment after pressing that magical Ctrl+G keyboard shortcut, the fill color of those same 10 objects (that all have just revently become a part of the group object) cannot be changed the same logically consistent way.

    So I need to ungroup those 10 objects.

    And after that I need to change their color.

    And after that I need to group them again...

    And I need to repeat that again and again.

    Time after time.

    I've calculated that I need now 3 or more times longer GOMS-path than it could have been in case I could have the possibility to change the fill color of each member of the group object by simple changing the fill color of the group object.

    That will speed me up, according to my own calculations and estimations, up to 3-5 times, which is VERY-VERY substantial in big projects, because every big project is the case when I need to massively change fill color of group objects.

    If I could be an AI or a robot, I could plan everything, so I could beforehand color all the members of all group objects by the same predefined color asset.

    And in that case it could be very convenient and quick for me to change the colors of all the group objects in my project by the simple editing of that color asset.

    But I'M NOT A ROBOT, guys :)

    And I'M NOT AN ARTIFITIAL INTELLEGENCE :)

    So, I cannot plan everything.

    So, it happens often that I need to quickly change the fill color of many group objects.

    But... but it's very uneasy in Adobe XD.

    It would be great if you have resources and will to change that as soon as possible.

    In MS Visio you can change the color of the whole group by a single click, which speeds all the projects up substantially.

    Have good luck!

12. Display style name in Creative Cloud Libraries

    Hello,

    The Creative Cloud Libraries are a great addition! Thank you for that. We're looking forward to seeing more of the assets usable.

    However, there seems to be missing the NAME of the style/color. Each of the assets in my (very extensive) library has a coded name and is shared with many designers and the name of the library asset is essential for the understanding of what asset is what (especially for character sizes)

    Thanks!

    As multiple people have mentioned, undo is one of those critical features that we’ve had in the product since the first day. On Windows, you can right-click on the canvas to get the context menu and undo, or you can Ctrl+Z.

    Hope that helps.

16. Change color for all artboards

    If you have a color palette and need to change a color a little you need to change the color for every layer with the old color again.

    It would be nice to have a set color palette and if you change one of these colors all layers with the old color get updated.

    You can now do this with the assets panel! Add the color to the assets panel and edit it from there to edit globally.

17. Image cropping / repositioning within shape mask (after dragging bitmap into a shape)

    Provide the ability to reposition/move images within masks.

    If you make a mask via Object > Mask With Shape, then you can double-click into it to reposition the image (or other content) within the mask.

    However, if you drag an image file onto a shape, it gets masked by the shape and you CANNOT reposition the image or adjust the cropping. It is auto-cropped to fill the shape when you resize it, but you don't currently get full control of the cropping.

    I’m happy to say you can now use symbols in the November release of Adobe XD!

    Thanks to everyone who voted on this — it honestly does make a difference in making this happen sooner.

    There are lots of ways we could expand on this initial set of symbol features. Please let us know your opinion by upvoting follow-up suggestions like these:

    • Different text, color, or other properties in some copies of the symbol (like editing text in a Repeat Grid, for example): https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/13675224-override-text-color-etc-on-a-symbol
    • Different size for some copies of the symbol: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/16939339-scale-resize-symbols-individually
    • Interactions/wires on objects inside symbols: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/16943800-allow-interaction-wires-links-from-objects-inside
    • States the symbol can switch between (like a UI component): https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/13031871-add-multiple-states-inside-symbols
    • Reorganize your list of symbols: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/16933993-label-and-reorganise-symbol-library
    • Share symbols across documents or within a team (via CC Libraries, for example): https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12930321-cc-library-support-share-symbols-assets

    And as always, feel free to file new suggestions if you have other ideas that aren’t posted in UserVoice yet!
