BUG: When an image is placed in a rectangle with drop shadow, it can't be repositioned or resized
BUG: When an image is placed in a rectangle with drop shadow, it can't be repositioned or resized—when double-clicking it just jump directly into editing the shape, and no image is shown in the layers panel.
(XD 42.1.22.4 x64 Mac OS)Please fix this
1 voteHi Vlad,
Thanks for the additional details. I was able to reproduce the issue and I have opened a bug to track this.
Meanwhile a possible workaround here will be to convert the shape to a path, and after that the resize/reposition should work.
Thanks,

Escape button consistency
When I type in a text box on the artboard and I hit escape it keeps the text I just changed and takes me out of editing mode with the cursor.
When I type in a layer to change the name of it and I hit escape it removes the changes I just made and take me out of editing mode with the cursor. To effectively keep the changes I must hit return on the keyboard.
If I hit return on the keyboard while editing a text box on the artboard I get what I would expect -- a carriage…

XD Jira Plugin - Leverage JIRA Filters on Shared XD Boards
Enter a custom JIRA Filter ID either in the XD Plugin interface or the JIRA App Management.
This would populate the Filter by drop down in the JIRA XD Plugin interface.
Benefit: Leverage JIRAs powerful filtering to group Stories that need design and allows design teams to see the same group of Issues being worked on.
Note: For shared XD projects/boards.

Color asset edit should work for component instances in different documents
When using a component instance in a different document, changes to the linked color asset (in the new document) should update the instances.
There seems to be no reason for the current behavior. I work with multiple products with the same base UI differed mostly by color.
It actually looks more like a bug, but this ticket says otherwse: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353010-adobe-xd-bugs/suggestions/38063995-linked-components-not-reacting-to-edit-fill-color

Import SVG with preserved viewBox boundary
Many icon sets define a specific (often square) area that represents the boundaries for all icons. In the SVG format, this boundary is specified by the SVG viewBox attribute. Individual icons will have varying measurements for their vector shapes, e.g. a "minus" icon's vector-shape will have a larger width than height. When scaling icons, if you can rely on the viewBox size, you can scale all icons to consistent sizes (e.g. 24x24 or 48x48).
Currently when importing an SVG icon into Adobe XD, the object will have the vector-shapes measurements, so that scaling multiple icons from the same icon set…

Dark Interface (overall UI including side panels) / Dark mode
The option for a darker interface like Photoshop and Illustrator would be great, especially when working at night.

Multiple pages (separate sets of artboards)
Sometimes, for 1 design project we need to make several options and to do so currently we need to create new files every time and name them with versions. So I think it would be really cool if we can create multiple designs within the same file and then be able to have multiple prototype links also based on different options, that would organize stuff and make it much easier.
Thanks!1,262 votesWe’re planning to support pages in XD. Stay tuned!

Intersection is misaligned
When using Intersection in 0.6.20.7 Beta, the resulting object is misaligned from the two shapes position. See GIF below:
Thanks.
3 votesHi there,
Thank you for getting in touch. This is currently the expected behavior, though we are hoping to improve it in the future. When you create a boolean group including an image, the image then becomes a fill for the resulting path. The image will be scaled to cover the path, similar to the css background-property value “cover”.
If you want the image to stay in place, I would suggest using a Mask instead, which will keep the relative size / position of the image intact.
You might be interested in checking out two topics over in the feature request forum:
More flexibility when using images as a fill:

Some SVG gradients are missing
SVG gradients are not rendered correctly when importing this image in AdobeXD.
See the reference file with embedded bitmaps to see how it is rendered compared to how it should be rendered.22 votesSVG gradients that rely on `gradient-transform` don’t import well yet. Other gradients, including most gradients created in AI, should import just fine already.

Repeat grid - move next row down when adding content makes items bigger
I don't know it's considered as a bug or if it's beaucause it's not final yet.
0.5.0.4 Beta
Having a repeat grid with content in it already. Trying to add new element within the groups of the grid (which because of the logic of no layers, adds the object in each duplicate). Finally, move the whole group (normally considered as the reference object for the grid) to adjust the spacing in height of the content.
I was hoping when I drag the repeat grid handle down, the following content would take in account the respacing.
It does not.
Video attached.
16 votesHi Winnie,
Thank you for your feedback! We already have a feature in the backlog for adjusting the cell size based on the content and that will solve the issue you describe. Currently the size of the repeat grid cells is fixed and only their padding adjustable.
Kind regards,
Florin
