Adobe XD: Feature Requests
We love to hear feature requests for Adobe XD from you! UserVoice works best when you file a single idea per submission, but feel free to file as many submissions as you’d like!
Please include:

Style Grouped Elements - How to do it?
I saw that you can grouped elements, and then make one change that applies to all. I don't know what are the steps to achieve this? Could you show us how? I couldn't find a tutorial on the Adobe Help page.
1 voteIn the past year, we’ve added the ability to apply styles to the group and have all applicable styles apply to the elements within them.
-
Title name for character styles
There must be an option to call what kind of text style I have created.
Currently, it just shows what the font type, size etc., but user should be able to create his own style name or predefined user interface styles.Like in Adobe InDesign for paragraph styles.
That way I can easily identify what kind of generated style I want to use to the text component I have created.
11 votesAs we haven’t heard back from anyone in five months, I’m closing this feature as completed.

Resize artboard
Every now and then I find myself juggling with layout settings as soon as I change the width of an existing artboard and want the layout to stay the same.
Especially when designing for the web.
Suppose I have a design made on a canvas with a width of 1280. The design is vertically centerd on the artboard. When I change the width of the canvas to say 1500, the design doesn't stay in the center, but positions itself relative to the upper left corner. And the Grid Layout adapts to the new width, meaning that column width and gutter…4 votesYou can now do this by turning on Responsive Resize on your artboard. Select your artboard, turn on Responsive Resize in the property inspector, and then adjust.

Make Styles panel collapsible, or add fullscreen mode in Design Specs
When viewing design specs on smaller screens, the top, right, and bottom panels take up too much space. I recommend making the right panel collapsible, the bottom panel shorter, and the top panel transparent like the bottom one.
9 votesThis feature is now available in all design specs links published from XD 21.0 or above. You can now collapse/open the styles panel by toggling on the specs icon on the right side bar

Eye dropper fill tool
Why did you move the eye dropper tool inside the fill dialogue box? It now takes two clicks to access it instead of the original one click. With a tool that is used so frequently this is not a good thing.
2 votesWe now have a color picker in both the color picker and in the property inspector.
-
Edit Symbols
I'd love the ability to edit an existing symbol and have it populate to all instances (ie. Navigations, Headers, Footers, etc.)
This would make editing content and global changes SO much easier.
1 voteSince we launched XD, you’ve been able to edit the symbol by double-clicking into it. Style changes will apply to all instances, and text and bitmap overrides can be propagated to all instances by selecting “Update All Symbols.”
Here’s an article that might help: https://medium.com/@Jonthanjosh/working-with-symbols-in-adobe-xd-6363a999a1d

Paste Appearance command
Paste Appearance command should also work on folders. Lets say I have some multilayered flat logo 'A' in 'Folder A' and I want to past the attributes on all layers inside. It will be great. Currently I have to select all layers seperately.
1 voteWe were missing the ability to apply styles to groups before. Now that we can, you can paste appearance, and it will be applied to groups!

tag comments
hi, me and my team (UX) would like to have the ability to share the XD presentation online with dev or PMs on view mode - now they need to have an adobe account to view our presentations- so that's a problem :/
2 votesSorry, this seems to have slipped through the cracks! You can already share publicly (or add a password) with your PMs and devs. They don’t need to have an account to access your work. Hope that helps!

Display informations for developers
When I send my mockup to developers, they need all informations about size, font, etc. It would be nice to have an option to display those informations :)
4 votesWe haven’t heard back from you in over a year, so we’re closing this as delivered.

Copy one element and paste it in multiple views
I'd like to be able to copy one element (i.e: a top navigation bar) to multiple views by copying the element, selecting all relevant views, and pressing cmd + V.
1 voteYou can now paste to multiple artboards! Simply copy your object from one artboard, multi-select artboards, and then press Cmd+V – your object will then copy across all selected artboards!

hello team,
while importing assets it should not be directly load into art board . but instead first it load on assets kind of tab at top most bar of XD. when click on that it should toggle our imported assets and we drag them out whichever we want onto the artboard for project. not at once i mean.4 votesThanks for your feedback! We now have a feature called linked assets, which enables you to do exactly this! To find out more about this, check out this link: https://letsxd.com/videos/linked-assets

1 click exporting of assets
Currently if I design mobile app assets at 1x I have to rescale individual assets at different sizes to export them seperately per platform.
I'd really like to see a one click export for both platforms from a 1x designed screen. 1x screesn are key when testing and there isn't an option setup a project at different scales.
Majority of my assets are vector, especially for the all important app iconography.
Photoshop has something like this at the moment be great to see something like this in XD.
Thanks
45 votesWe currently have this feature built into the export in Adobe XD. You can export, select the device type, and then click on export for multiple versions. You can also now batch export by marking an asset or a group for batch export, then select Export > Batch.

Make design specs password protected optionally
Description:
The generated url to a design spec should be password protected optionally .Value:
It is important that the customers data is handled properly. A password protection for the exchange of design specs can be an argument for or against the use of a layout software.A feature liek this would provide further arguments for using Adobe XD.49 votesThis is now available in XD 8.0 version. Please update to the latest XD builds to see this in action. More info at https://www.adobe.com/products/xd/features.html

Design Spec Beta: Developers open the link but think they need an Adobe account
I have change log set up on confluence and I've been wondering why non of the developers have been clicking on the link to see the spec, but instead have been downloading the XD file instead. And when the fonts failed to load on the file, they often slack me what the font weight is and etc.
And when I refer to them spec link, the first thing they said to me was "they don't have an account". I had to show them they can just click "Sign In" and then hit "Google". And then they were like OOOHHHH..
But…

Select and change the shape of the same color to another color together, instead of select shapes one by one again.
When I decided to change the whole prototype design from one color palette to another. I cannot change the same color of all the shapes together. I need to select same color shapes on each page one by one. This is so slow.
2 votesYou can already do this by using the assets panel. Simply add the color to the assets panel, then edit the color in the assets panel to apply to all shapes using the same color.
