Paste SVGs from Sketch files correctly
Paste SVGs from Sketch files correctly. Right now you can't paste an icon from Sketch directly into Adobe XD. What you get is the rectangle with the bounding box, not the actual SVG you wanted.
3 votesIn our July update, we will have direct copy/paste from Sketch to XD via PDF on the clipboard. SVG import will likely still give you better fidelity going from Sketch to XD. We have made improvements to the import with every release, so, please try it again.
1) In Sketch, do “Copy SVG” from the context menu
2) Paste into XD. -
BUG: When an image is placed in a rectangle with drop shadow, it can't be repositioned or resized
BUG: When an image is placed in a rectangle with drop shadow, it can't be repositioned or resized—when double-clicking it just jump directly into editing the shape, and no image is shown in the layers panel.

Why won't this svg open?
All the icon svg paths in the polaris icon system won't open in XD. It seems to be valid svg and renders in the browser just fine. It also won't open in Illustrator.

Use ALT/Option key + click and drag to duplicate object in stack.
As an Adobe Xd user that uses many stack groups, I would like to quickly duplicate individual items within a stack.
See video attached for example:
1. Outside of stack groups the default behavior of holding ALT/Option key while clicking and dragging an object is to duplicate it.
2. Holding ALT/Option key on an object within a stack group does nothing.
3. (Workaround) Copy / Pasting an object within a stack group with Command+C & Command+V duplicates the object in the correct location.This is 1 of 2 minor bugs I've found with stacks, but I think I'm only finding…

Make non-apple devices first class citizens too
The first thing I see on XD is a choice to create a new design. The predefined items have a multitude of Apple devices and a token "Android" or "Custom" option.
The real world mostly use non-Apple devices. There are many different sized android phones & Tables, Chromebooks, Windows Surface etc. It is about time Adobe products recognised this and treated non-apple hardware as a first class citizen and not an after thought.
Support what our customers need, not what you personally prefer.
2 votesWe’ve shifted our presets, which balances out the devices a bit more.

Outer Margin for Groups and Components
The new padding feature is cool, but a little too limited. I’d like for it to be able to adjust padding for the outside of groups/components in order to help with building design systems.
For example, when I build a website, a page is often made up of smaller sections (components). I would like to be able to define margin on those components so that each one has an even amount of spacing between the next. That way if I update the height of any of those components or change content that affects its size, components around that one will…

Direct selection must ignore invisible layers
When you Ctrl+click to do direct selection then you also select layers with 0% opacity, which means that you are not selecting what you see.
With Auto Animate I have begun to place layers on top of each other, and in next artboard move them into final position to simulate foldout. This will also transition from 0 to 100% opacity, which is why I don't simply hide the layers.
This makes it difficult to edit what is visible and layered behind the top layers of 0% opacity.
E.g. if I then want to edit a text field then I cannot…2 votesYou can now cycle through layers in direct selection, which means you can select behind your invisible layers. Hope that helps!

Ability to designate font points vs. pixels
Since our developers code our websites in pixels, we need the ability to change the font style from points to pixels.
2 votesIn Design Specs (which this screen shot is from), you can select “pt” or “px” or “em” from the upper right hand corner of the “Text” section, which will then convert for you.

XD Character Style/Colors Swatch Hit Area too small (Assets Panel Grid View)
Currently you have to select the Colur icon/block or Ag style icon to apply character or Colour style, if you click anywhere else in the character style block it does not apply!!!
The more intuitive and i think previous versions had this, is to make the entire character style capsule clickable. I run a 5k screen setup so the icons are pretty small.2 votes -
Ability to label assets within XD
It would be helpful if you were able to label the assets (symbols, colors, fonts) like you can in the Library panel so that you can easily tell which asset is for which feature in your project. For example, the ability to label a font choice as "Header" or "Subtext".

Eye dropper fill tool
Why did you move the eye dropper tool inside the fill dialogue box? It now takes two clicks to access it instead of the original one click. With a tool that is used so frequently this is not a good thing.
2 votesWe now have a color picker in both the color picker and in the property inspector.

Select and change the shape of the same color to another color together, instead of select shapes one by one again.
When I decided to change the whole prototype design from one color palette to another. I cannot change the same color of all the shapes together. I need to select same color shapes on each page one by one. This is so slow.
2 votesYou can already do this by using the assets panel. Simply add the color to the assets panel, then edit the color in the assets panel to apply to all shapes using the same color.

Unbury the Update Link command
I use the Update Link command a lot! It has now been buried under Publish Prototype; more clicks away instead of fewer. I believe that his command is a signature experience for this application, and so it should be brought forward rather than buried.
It would be great for me to have a dedicated control that let's me update my prototype with one powerful click.
Please look at the attached image I which I have capture my thoughts around this feature.
If anything, the previous design should be put back in place.
2 votesWe’ve completely revamped this so that Update Link is the primary control in Share Mode once you have a link. Hope this helps! Feel free to share more ideas if you’d like us to iterate more on the experience.

Highlight objects that use a selected color in the assets panel
I want to select all the objects that use a particular asset like a color or font. If my design has gone crazy and I have assets that are close, like 23px and 24px titles that I want to merge it would make that easier. With colors, I may not want to edit the Asset, I may want to change all the corporate red to the corporate blue. It would help with finding fonts in a file too, like in Illustrator.

Recenter and zoom to an artboard from the artboard list
I want XD to recenter and zoom to an artboard that I select from the artboard list.
Why is this valuable to you?
I currently spend a lot of energy manually zooming and panning between artboards. What if we simplify and streamline all this activity to just a couple of clicks?2 votesThanks for the followup! Closing, as the feature already exists.

Add multiple symbols from the panel to the canvas
Would be great if we could add multiples symbols at once rather than adding one by one. Maybe let grouped items be imported to the symbols section altogether.

Direct selection tool for nested objects
In Illustrator, the direct selection arrow allows me to select an object inside a group without having to select the group. When I have nested groups this can become a laborious process. This should also provide a way to select individual objects contained within different groups.
2 votesYou can already direct select by holding down Cmd (Mac) or Ctrl (Win) while clicking using the Select tool.

shortcut to switch between two window or cancas
It would be nice to have shortcut key for switching between the two windows when open. for example when i have one project open and then i open for some iOS and android UI it opens in new window which is really annoying to switch between the the two window.
for example in photoshop when i press (cmd+ ~) it switchs between the windows without using mouse click.2 votes -
Vectorize Text
I noticed that the text box around text can be centered/aligned itself, but the text inside it is always at the bottom of the text box and not centered, making it hard to center/align text with other objects.
For example, if you create a rectangle for a button (see image), and add in a text box with some text that says something like "button," and center both together vertically and horizontally, the text will be slightly lower than center because the text is not centered inside the text box.
Some have already posted the idea of adding alignment tools, but…
