Line height: should function as it does on the web
On the web, i often use line height to determin the height of the types container. Therefore the text should sit vertically centrally to its line height. This is different to how line height works in print.
I also use line height for vertical rhythm. see more info on this here:

vertical rhythm is a huge factor when I design for web

C'mon, Adobe! This should be a no-brainer! We need this fixed asap!
I'm using a 8pt grid and this needs to properly align to the line-height of the text - but it's not because of this bug.

Adobe please fix this. Feels like hell to always explain this to developers and to try to align text properly. Thanks

I love most things about XD, but this line height issue is extremely frustrating and really needs to be fixed asap.

Is there any update on this? XD is the only webdesign tool that ignores html text web behaviour.
We waited so long but will switch to figma no, because using (big) design systems and having this text issue is a dealbreaker. -

Can anyone from the team respond?
Maybe 250 votes are not enough but I believe you guys value quality over quantity. With this improvement, you will end up the war between front-end devs and designers :) Please do your best to fix this. -
