Color Management (set color profiles)
XD should be a color managed application.
I'm not sure what the full context of color management is within the UI/UX industry is, or if it's something that many pay attention to, or if it's just left un-managed.
Currently a vast majority of designers are using high gamut displays to design. Our final output will however differ greatly without some proper color management implemented. If color managment is implemented, we can at least visually soft proof our design and colors to specific devices (ie: New iOS devices that support P3 color gamut), or older sRGB devices.
At the same time sRGB images used won't expand to the display's high color gamut, making them look over saturated.
(Currently using Windows Beta Version: 0.6.8.6)

Didn't have this huge problem on windows, i moved on mac and now have it. Can't get an explanation why Adobe didn't fix it yet. 2 years i work with XD and i'm about to jump back on Sketch for this. Can't believe it.

This is a must-have. I was quite happy with the product until I exported my artboards. Huge disappointment. Please fix!

I'm changing programs until there is a fix for this, as it's not possible to use it with this issue in professional settings. It adds far too much time to re-create assets or branding in another program

Colour Management should also include the ability to MERGE two colours into a new #HEX colour.
I have many projects where I need to reduce the number of colours and merging them it will keep my assets clean. As for no I have the same black 2 times in assets since some elements use one and some use another One is a design system linked another is local - which should be replaced by the Linked colour. Is double the work to update Black in my workflow...

People work hard to perfect the colors only to be disappointed and frustrated with the export. What's the point of this application Adobe? 276 people raising their voices since 2016 and we still have to deal with this. Clients are getting disappointed with us thinking we can't get a god damn color right.
Thanks Adobe.

Tragic that this is not even under review. As more of us switch to new devices like the M1 macbooks this is going to factor in more and more.
At least on my previous macbook, I didnt notice that the color output being so drastically different. Kind of absurd that something so fundamental is being ignored.

I can't imagine how the app went out without resolving this. The color difference is terrible and adjusting the saturation on my UI is tedious and almost impossible to get right.
Please resolve this!!!

It's impossible to bring useful images into Adobe XD because they're completely oversaturated. I hope this is a priority to fix because it's a major flaw of this software. Please FIX IT!
