All new objects should create at the same Z-order as selected object
New layer positioning
Detrimental for a workflow as anyone spending hours per day knows.
When creating a new layer of whichever type (vector, text, rectangle, pasting an image), the position of the layer needs to be above the layer that is currently selected or within if it is a folder.
If no layers are selected than the new layer should be on the top.Current behavior: the new layer is always created at the top except when I isolate a group of layers.
It is time consuming as we fiddle with hundreds of layers, and mouse dragging it every time…

Define default symbol paste position
Symbols should have the option of being applied to an artboard with their position matching a predetermined xy position, thus having the newly applied symbol appear in exactly the same place as it was when it was created.
Currently, the workaround requires copying / pasting from some kind of master artboard — which is tedious and unnecessary.
There should be some option to apply a symbol in a predetermined place, or position it manually if desired.

Reorder objects within a repeat grid in the layers panel
When designing complex widgets that are reproduced as repeat grids I oftentimes need to rearrange the z-order contained layers within the repeat grid.
Unfortunately this is not possible at the moment. If this is not supported as a feature the interface should indicate so. Now the contained layers look like regular layers outside a grid, but behave otherwise.24 votes -
Option to disable fold line by default
I'd like a setting to disable the fold line by default when I'm editing preset artboards.
[original] Nobody asked for this so it may not be a popular request, but I find the fold line annoying and unnecessary. Would you consider giving us the option to disable it?

Add a bit of snapping lag when moving objects with a tablet pen
I've been using XD with a wacom tablet (Intuos 5) for several weeks and I have the same problem as with other design software: the pen input is too sensitive to movement!
Often times I click with the pen to select an object and I accidentally move it at the same time (a few pixels) which is really annoying and sometimes I don't even notice it if I've very zoomed out.
In Paint Tool SAI, which ironic is not even a design tool, there's an intentional lag snap when dragging stuff so you don't move things accidentally. Maybe something like…2 votes -
Embed color data in property inspector
Please expand the dat that the property inspector shows to include color codes, transparency percentage and the option to select (maybe even edit) this straight from the inspector screen instead of having to open every individual color box if you're specifying colors for a design.
Kind of goes hand in hand with earlier requested "blue print" modes to make it easier to share designs with developers.

Ability to apply object blur on a group
Would be nice to select a group (or several) and be able to assign object-blur to all objects within, rather than having to select individual objects first. probably also applies to other common properties.

Tag Layers for Specific Releases, Ability to Present Designs Per Release to Devs
Problem:
I often need to design with the future in mind, I need to be considering the product several releases ahead of dev. When it is time to share designs with the dev team we often spend a good portion of our conversation going over what the requirements are for the current release. Developers need to make sure what is required of them for the next release and it seems there is no way around this conversation except to spend time just removing things from the designs which I never do because, well, time.Example:
1. My designs might include…9 votes -
[Windows] Match other Adobe apps' canvas scrolling keyboard shortcuts
Adobe (or someone) has set the standards for scrolling art spaces for years, PS, AI, ID all do this:
• Scroll = up and down
• Ctrl + Scroll = Left and right
• Alt + Scroll = zoom in and out
• Adding Shift to any of the above options modifies the action to larger increments of scroll/zoomCurrently in XD (Windows 10)
• Scroll = up and down (meets standard)
• Ctrl + Scroll = zoom in and out (out of standard)
• Alt + Scroll = zoom in and out (meets standard)
• Shift + Scroll =…3 votes -
Find most recent update override to a symbol
In Design Mode, we override symbols in multiple places - but sometimes forget to Update All Symbols along the way. Later, when editing the document, we can not find the latest update to a symbol, which we would like to use to Update All Symbols to the override. Feature needed: "find most recent update override to a symbol."

Bootstrap and web layout UI Kit
Basically, I think it would be great if you had general web buttons/tabs/text/form fields eg. bootstrap themed kit. that gave you elements to drag and drop would help speed up process. Also pre-set layout themes of basic simple web page that has already been laid out and can edit from there. eg.. Simple one page webpage layout with header.. nav.. footer.. and gallery section.. etc. Would really help get someone off to good start with a concept built instead of having to build it all from ground up.

Import color swatches from Photoshop and Illustrator
Introduce a new feature that lets you import color swatch libraries from photoshop or illustrator.
125 votesI’m leaving this open for now, but if you’re interested in using color swatches from Photoshop and Illustrator, you can export them to a CC Library and use them in the Assets Panel directly within XD. Hope that helps!

Paste relative to group X/Y
Sketch has a feature where it remembers the relative positioning or XY of objects within a group. So if you copy / paste from inside one group to another group you can paste items into the exact same position.

Keyboard shortcut: Rename layer/group
Would love to have a menu item at the very least, that I could assign a keyboard shortcut, to rename a layer or group. I'm on a big display and it wastes so much of my time, dragging my mouse all the way to the top left to also double click a layer.
Thanks!

Snap to nearest graphically-balanced position on arrow movement
The ability to (key+arrow) move an item directly to a spot that makes sense, according to certain preset values.
Eg. you could move an item always 10px away from another item, or directly center an item between two other elements nearby with just one (key+arrow) combination.
See example below. Thanks!

Move the symbols and layers icon somewhere else
Could it be possible to rework the placement of the Symbols & Layers toggle buttons ? They are not where i expect them to be. I'm forced to learn shortcut to switch.
I don't have the solution but you could maybe moving them on top on the screen.

Find & Replace to confirm other overrides when "Update All Symbols"
As a designer in design mode, when applying "Update All Symbols," I wish to keep some update-overrides. But they can be hard to find. A find-and-replace feature, like in modern spell checkers, would help me to find and confirm, or skip, some of my other symbol overrides.
