Show scroll bar in published prototypes
When you share a prototype with a client, it isn't immediately obvious that the design is scrollable. I have had a couple of instances of clients not knowing that the designs continue below the fold. An obvious scroll bar added to the prototype view when shared would solve this.

Here's what I don't understand... Why restrict the window as if it's loaded in an iframe at all, but If your going to do that, we need scroll bars, bare minimum so it's obvious to the people we are presenting interfaces too.
I often times send my prototypes off, to steak-holders in other parts of the world, and can't always walk them through things do to the time zone differences, and even when I tell them things are scrollable, they often miss that, until I have personally shown them.
Frankly it's exhausting and embarrassing having to continually explain the UX issues with my UX tool LMAO

This is not a feature request... this is a bug report!

I can't believe a user experience design product would overlook such a basic and essential part of creating a good experience for web application users!! Fix this ASAP Adobe!

Still waiting on this essential, table stakes functionality. Unreal.
This issue negatively affects user testing scenarios and if I it were up to me our enterprise would no longer use XD due to this issue. It is that significant: it affects testing results.

Hey Adobe, this is a major UX issue, the scrollbar is already there but has a opacity set on 0.01 please!! don't be lazy and remove that css property ASAP

Completely agree, scroll bars are needed in web browser please, only being able to scroll if you have a wheel or track pad on your mouse is not helpful for those of us with clients who cannot scroll prototypes in this way....and there are plenty of them!

In our remote user tests, participants sometimes have input devices without scroll wheels. The lack of scrollbars prevents these users from scrolling in the prototype, or even to discover that it's scrollable.

Almost every user test I run though results in the participant asking why there isn't a visible scroll bar. If you can establish component states, a scroll bar should be well within reach.

Figma and Sketch features for sharing on the web are pretty neat when it comes to this Adobe Xd's missing scroll. Here's a prototype from a Sketch prototype link the Admin can go to for gathering the best of it.

I have this problem too. I need there to be a visible scrollbar whenever the design is scrollable as I am not using a touch-enabled monitor. Scrolling using my mousewheel seems a bit impaired and the scrollbars would improve the situation. (I have to roll the wheel a lot more when I use Adobe XD on the web than on most other webpages).

I get this complaint from clients daily! Everyone asks why they can't scroll. We have generated detailed instructions for our clients on how to work around this problem. Unfortunately, users without trackpad or mouse wheel simply can't view the mockups, so we have to schedule screen shares, walk them through, and take feedback over the phone. Why is this still an issue? It's not a feature request, this is a bug fix!

Funny thing is I went into the DOM and added "Scroll" instead of auto in the CSS and it shows the bar and works flawlessly.

Today i shared with a cliente a prototype, but he uses a laptop and he was unable to scroll the prototype..... IT'S JUST A SCROLL BAR!!!!!
How can Adobe not put it there yet? -

I don't normally complain, but our clients NEED to be able to scroll without a mouse. As of right now, if they are just using a trackpad on their laptop, they cannot scroll to see the whole page and we have to send PDF's. Guess I'm going back to Invision.

Adobe, if you don't want people to use this product so badly then why not make the whole app invisible ?
