Support math operators in number fields
It will be nice I can use that 200/2 = 100 directly in a numbered field just like any other Adobe App. (/ and - and * and +)
As of our June release, you can now use math operators in numeric fields! If you don’t see the update, open the Creative Cloud desktop application, select the … in the upper right corner, and select “Check for App Updates.”

Sometimes i re-download XD only to check if this function is in, if yes ok, if not delete -

Unlike other CC products, XD lacks the ability to use math in the transform pallet. For example if a box is 100 px wide being able to enter + - / or * to change the value. And then being able to chose what anchor point it transforms from.

Adding a feature like Illustrator to modify the size of an element, in the meantime in XD it takes only a number for the input. while Illustrator's input can be like this: 1200/4 (if I needed to divide an element for 4 blocks) in XD won't work like that.

+1 for this - an absolute must, especially coming from other adobe products this is such a natural thing to try and do!

I have to set object-1 50px from right of the object-2. So I align the object-1 to right of the object-2 and discount 50px from X pos value. Sometimes I have to calculate: X pos value - 50px. So, will be possible to I set the position of the object-1 like: X pos value - 50px. And the X pos value will be calculate.

If a width field has the following value:
"350"
You can type in the field:
"350+16"
And at enter it will calculate the width to:
"364"
It can really speed things up especially if you want things to be precise.
Same functionality for height, x position and y position. -

This is very much needed feature. I hope this can make its way through in future updates.

Since I've been using XD, this one thing wastes so much time for me over a work week. Thanks!
