Update design spec when publishing prototype
Use case:
Developer asked me for a link for specs, and when I gave it to him he found out that screens differ from prototype. It was because I forgot to update both links.Proposed Solution:
Enable automatic update whenever prototype is updated, via some kind of toggle button/ checkbox.My thoughts on problem:
Since I cannot directly edit specs link, it makes sense to update it only when I edit current state of prototype - the prototype is current, valid state of app. Therefore it makes sense to give us some kind of automatization for this process.Thanks, you're…
8 votesThanks for your feedback! You can now publish a single link (design spec), which includes a prototype as well. Both will update when you republish your design spec.

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.
1 voteYou 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!

Pinning a comment after it's been submitted
When writing a comment on a prototype it's really easy to hit "return" and submit the comment. After the fact I actually meant to pin the comment to the artboard. Presently I have to copy the comment, delete it, then paste into a new comment then click "Pin to artboard". It would be nice to have a button in edit mode or next to the edit button where I can pin the comment to the artboard after I've submitted it.
6 votesThanks for your feedback! You can now add and edit pins after you’ve submitted your comment. Let us know how it works for you!

Export/Import Saved Assets (Colors, Character Styles, Symbols)
Saved Assets need to be able to quickly copy pasted between multiple .xd files.
79 votesHi All -
We’re excited to announce that with XD May release, you could 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.

Long artboard name in spec link
The new Spec link is awesome. But my teammates can't read the full artboard name if the artboard's width is short eg. Android or iPhone artboard. A simplily mouse over name would solve this problem.

Mark changes and comments on the publish preview
I'm missing an option to mark and comment on the online (published) preview image. this feature can be very useful in the design and develop meeting when other members of the team comment on the mockup design.
1 voteThis feature already exists in the published prototype. Click on the speech bubble in the upper right corner of the published prototype to be able to comment (and pin comments) to the artboard.

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…

Select all artboards that are used (or unused) in prototype / connected by wires
Hi. I'd like to be able to select all artboards used or not used in a prototype.
I would use this in a couple of ways:
I want to clean up my artboard layout, so that "current" artboards are in one area and older or reference artboards are off to the side. The current ones are the ones linked up in the prototype. I'd like to select all artboards that aren't in the prototype—don't link from or to the home board through any path—and then move those all with one gesture to another area of the workspace, leaving only the…
4 votesWith the new flows feature, you can now name and manage an entire flow. Selecting the flow name will select all artboards connected to the home artboard. Learn more about it here: https://letsxd.com/videos/multiple-flows?rq=flows

Unbury the Update Link command
I use the Update Link command a lot! It has now been buried under Publish Prototype; more clicks away instead of fewer. I believe that his command is a signature experience for this application, and so it should be brought forward rather than buried.
It would be great for me to have a dedicated control that let's me update my prototype with one powerful click.
Please look at the attached image I which I have capture my thoughts around this feature.
If anything, the previous design should be put back in place.
2 votesWe’ve completely revamped this so that Update Link is the primary control in Share Mode once you have a link. Hope this helps! Feel free to share more ideas if you’d like us to iterate more on the experience.

A text with multiple styles only the first one is show on design specs
For an example, when I have some bold text inside a paragraph, the design specs for that paragraph should state that not only that text is Arial 12px but also has some bold inside.

Preflight check to ensure all artboards are connected
Currently, there aren't any safeguards to ensure that all pages are accounted for and each button directs correctly.
It would be really helpful to be able to specify a button with a target at the outset, so that upon publishing a quick preflight check would ensure that everything is linked correctly and no pages are missing from the site architecture.
2 votesYou can now do this preflight check through the new Share Mode, which will highlight the artboards that are linked. Hope this helps!

Export to JPEG @2x (JPG)
The title says it. Since the original request for "Export to JPG" (https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12942069-export-to-jpg) was completed, though not fully, I'm adding this request to add exporting of JPEG @2x resolution.

Since version 5.0 – february release – you can export JPG at 2x as well.

Add discussion feature to Design Spec
Developers and designers where I work would love to get a place on the new Design Specs feature where they would add comments against artboards or even an element on a page.
Maybe even code snippets and links to external systems to look at feedback from a client or user group.
78 votesWith XD’s most recent update, Design Specs now has the same great commenting feature as prototypes. Developers can comment on specs and you’ll be notified. Any updates, changes, or replies you make will automatically show up when they refresh their browsers.
Thank you for upvoting feature here in Uservoice. Request you to please play around with this feature and as always keep the feedback coming.

Return the Fill eyedropper to its previous location and add a keyboard shortcut
I rely heavily on the color picker, and it is now two clicks away instead of one. Furthermore, there's no keyboard shortcut for it. Returning the color picker to its previous collection and/or adding a keyboard shortcut will save me a lot of time in the long run.
This is a crosspost of "Color picker now 2 clicks away" under the Bugs section: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353010-adobe-xd-bugs/suggestions/32248015-color-picker-now-2-clicks-away
91 votesHi, everyone – this feature unfortunately has two different parts to it. As you probably noticed, we moved the eyedropper back to the property inspector a couple of months ago. We have a separate request tracking the shortcut to activate the eyedropper, which if you’re interested in, you can upvote here: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/13029870

Make Design Spec publicly accessible
At the moment, my development team do not have an adobe subscription, and I often work with external organisations who also do not use adobe either.
As a result, I need the ability to share a public link to the design specs so that they can access it.

Show the layer names on design spec mode
When the developer clicks an element, the layer name is not shown. Today he can only see the type of that layer ("Rectangle", "Text", "Group", etc). If the layer name was shown the designers could append information on that layer like the asset name or the color variable that should be used on that element.
69 votesWhenever, you click on a layer in design specs, the layer type and name are displayed in the Design Specs properties inspector

Get assets on design spec mode
On the design specs mode, I should be able to direct developers to where a specific asset is. Sometimes I want to attach a link to an asset (if it's common use, a logo hosted on S3 for an example), sometimes the dev needs to be able to download the asset (be it an image already scaled to 1x, 2x, etc or the code of an SVG to embed into a page) and the third case is that I need to attach some free text (for example a path on our local server or the icon code on font awesome…
190 votesHi All,
With XD’s 11.0 release (which happened moments ago), we’ve made this feature live.
You can now save time and give developers the ability to extract and download assets from Design Specs. Mark layers as assets for export and send as a Design Specs link. Developers can download all the assets in the file format they need
As always, please do let us know about what you think of this feature and feel free to log the improvements that you’d like to see in this workflow as new requests at https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007-adobe-xd-feature-requests?category_id=323330

Single link for design specs and prototype
Great to see design specs working! Will add some ideas for it here. The first of them is:
As a designer, I need to send to developers a link with the working prototype and another with the design specs. Would be great if I could share a single link and design specs and prototype worked as tabs on that page.
107 votesThis is now available in the latest design specs links published from XD 21.0 onwards.
Now you can share a single design specs link with developers that includes both prototypes interactions and design specs. This saves your developers time as well as enable you to better communicate your design intent.
