Expand Stroke / Create Outlines (convert stroke to separate filled path)

In Illustrator, I can draw an object and then use Expand to convert the strokes to a fill.

I would like to be able to do this in XD

    It will be useful if we convert the Outline to to filled. (So the purpose of the tool is only for Prototype?)
    eg. If we create a icon in XD in 10px, Resize to small the same icon will be in the same 10px,
    what is the use of this? hope other tool have options right!!

    Another surprise from XD - it has no elementary things from Ilustrator, Flash, Fireworks, AE, Dreamweaver, etc. It looks like XD is made by absolutely another corporation and inventing everything from scratch... and don't even look at competitors. Protopie has it all. Adobe - good morning!

    XD I really need to be able to outline stroke or path ... please make this possible in XD. It's really a hassle jumping back and forth between illustrator and XD.

    It seems like a small thing to add with a hughes value for us users.

    really? this isn't possible either? that makes no sense why this was left out. instead i have to copy from XD, paste in AI, outline the path, copy from AI, paste into XD, ungroup AND THEN i can do something with it.

    any chance you'll add some of these basic functions?

    Hey Adobe XD team! I was doing prototyping today in XD and really could have used this, anything to get me out of having to switch between Illustrator and XD to perform simple actions.

    That or allow me to add gradients to strokes, that's mostly what I need it for?

    Please add an ability to convert strokes to fills. This is extremely useful when creating simple icons oк component elements.

    Obstruction for creating a design system including icons in multiple sizes. We've got a pathfinder and can convert fonts to paths, if we could do this on strokes we can actually draw and use icons in multiple formats in XD. As stated below, this is also an important feature towards the exporting of icons to svg for use in an iconfont which seems common practice these days. +100
