Set scratch disk

Adobe XD needs to allow users to set a custom scratch disk. XD has no preference settings and, as far as I can see, no way to change the scratch disk from the primary drive.

As such, when I am working with large XD documents, I quickly run out of drive space on my primary drive, as it's almost full.

All other Adobe applications, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, allow you to set a different scratch disk, or even multiple scratch disks, which I have a 60 gb SSD for this sole purpose.

    Adobe has no consistency whatsoever when it comes to cache / scratch disk preferences between creative cloud apps. It is an utter nightmare for professionals trying to keep their workstations clean and organised. I too have a dedicated drive for this purpose. I want control not just over which drive is used as a scratch disk, but I want to be able to specify the folder too. I also want to be able to schedule a purge so I don't get inconvenienced at random points in the future.

    This feature is really needed! I just saw that XD created a 35GB folder in "application support" that used my drive space.
