Align to key object
One of the most convenient alignment features in illustrator is the 'align to key object', which Sketch doesn't support, making it difficult to align objects quickly. Please add that feature for XD.

Yes, please add along with a more accurate spacing/distribution feature (i.e., plug in 10 px between objects, etc.). From a UX standpoint, why make XD so different than all other Adobe programs?

Is this feature still not available after 2 years since the request has been posted? I just started using XD and I find the lack of this feature annoying. The objects aligning randomly.

I would say, not just 'align to key object' but also 'align to artboard' and 'align to selection' would be very useful as well.

like already said in the request description and other comments - like in Illustrator

It would be great if we could use the align tools much more in line with Illustrator's current tool. Automatically keying objects to each other is really obtrusive and the moment.

I love how clean the interface for XD is, and I understand not cluttering it up, but this doesn't even need a button on the menu. Just the ability to select two objects, then click on one to make it the key object, like in Illustrator. Saves so much time and headache!

I have been missing this feature and is very much needed to create pixel perfect web designs. Please add this feature to the product.

Very VERY needed… please Adobe… we need precision.
Aligning to a specific object like in Illustator or Indesign is critical for layout design. -

As a Designer with fine motor challenges, the ability to use 'align to key object' is essential to keeping my ideas flowing onto the screen. This is a major accessibility feature and should be considered.

I want this feature right now. This tool changed Illustrator for me years ago, and I never looked back.

Yes please! As below, the Illustrator align to key object interaction would be perfect in XD. This is one of the most obvious gaps in the system thus far - really looking forward to it being implemented!
