Preview of fonts
Please make it possible to preview fonts!!! It's a program dealing with text and layout. New user and imagined this to be basic. Would make everything so much easier and better. And end products coming out of this soft wear surely nicer ;)

Let artboard grow with content
If a stacked group grows vertically, then let the artboard grow with it.

Allow 'stack' feature for an entire artboard!
Allow 'stack' feature for entire content of an artboard! This would be amazing! Now I have to put everything in one group to do that – this wouldn't be necessary if we make the entire artboard to a vertical stack!

Menu to select specific layers under your cursors click-position
I would love to right-click on a spot and go to a layers-list and see all layers underneath my cursor so I can "dig deep" and even select locked layers by simply right-clicking on them, go to "layers" and then see a hierarchy of everything (even locked items) and select the one I want and change it/remove it. See screenshot for further explanation (As in Sketch and Figma).

Built-in iOS Library
Having an online/built-in library for iOS, similar to the Sketch iOS library, that is synced with a library created by Apple. This library generated by Apple is constantly updated with the latest design patterns and components. This will enable us to be up to date on the iOS designs, and be in sync with the master file.

default stroke
Enable preferences to turn off default behavior of stroke being "on" and applied to everything. I rarely ever use it when create UI elements. I saw forum requests for this but it seemed like folks where directed here to create a feature request. i didn't see anywhere to +1 the idea - or any feature requests w/ this.

Use ALT/Option key + click and drag to duplicate object in stack.
As an Adobe Xd user that uses many stack groups, I would like to quickly duplicate individual items within a stack.
See video attached for example:
1. Outside of stack groups the default behavior of holding ALT/Option key while clicking and dragging an object is to duplicate it.
2. Holding ALT/Option key on an object within a stack group does nothing.
3. (Workaround) Copy / Pasting an object within a stack group with Command+C & Command+V duplicates the object in the correct location.This is 1 of 2 minor bugs I've found with stacks, but I think I'm only finding…

Pasting object into stack group should align it with the rest of the stack instead of its original location.
As an Adobe Xd user that uses many artboards & different stack groups, I would like for pasted items to align with the rest of the stack group when adding more objects instead of pasting in the exact same coordinates that it's pasted from.
See video attached for example:
1. I copy an object that I want in a different stack (this can be any object on any artboard)
2. I double-click into the stack group to paste the new object.
3. Paste the object
4. The resulting object is pasted at the exact coordinates that it was copied from…2 votes -
Element rotate animation
It is hard to circular rotation using auto-animation. We need rotation time and speed input field.

Application frame toggle for XD
Application frame for Adobe products are great stuff, I been using since years, I love this features across most of Adobe products specially Illustrator and Photoshop. Please give the same feature in Adobe XD too, that will be very handy and increases usability of the application specially if we are dragging assets comparing different XD widows/projects, creating user flow and persona/flow charts and many other features.

Default CC Library to open view by group
I have created group folders for my assets in the library file but each time I open I have to choose to view by group as the default is by type. And sharing the lbrary with the team also presents the same issue. Whichever state the library was last saved in should be the default.

Default folders to collapsed in CC Library panel
When opening a library file it would be good to have the folders collapsed or have a choice of collapsing all at once. Otherwise its complete overwhelming as a starting point.

Direction control of the "Stack" feature
The "Stack" feature added recently is very useful, it helps a lot when designing components, but it is still limited.
Today the default behavior is always to push the elements to the right, and this is not the correct thing every time.
The resource could have a way of defining which way the elements will be pushed, similar to the responsiveness control.
Example: In a navbar I have buttons that are fixed on the right, when updating the button text, alignment on the right is lost.

Parallax scrolling feature
this would make vertical scroll groups smooth in mobile preview.
In case we would want to scroll through a particular section, while allowing the section fill the viewport height.2 votes -
CC library as separate file that can be edited
In Axure you set your library up as a file on its own. You edit the elements there and they are available to use on any file when you open it. Can we have libraries setup like this.
- It woud then make it a lot easier to edit elements rather than deleteing from the library and readding them.
- all assets could be linked to a library instead of tied to a document where they were created making it much easier to manage assets in once place than figuring out which linked asset was in which file.1 vote -
Dividers in CC library window
Abilty to have dividers or grouping of folders in the library file. Currently I have a lot of groups of things in one long list i have created folders just as dividers so i can better group folders of content but having built it dividers would solve this.

Add icon category in assets
Instead of creating components, Icons could have a separate category in assets. This could help organize the project and could be used to generate a separate zip file for download for the developers.
