Windows Features
Adobe hello, please, the following features that improve the functionality of Adobe XD
1. First, please, add the FTP function in the export menu. The finished project should be able to send assets to FTP server.
2. It will be useful to greater choice of visual effects transition elements such as animation hiding bar, push effect. Every element loaded on Website Design should be an additional transition settings.
3. Please add blur effects, and the possibility of cutting elements, as the case OSX.Best reagrds to all Team :)
12 votesUnfortunately, UserVoice works best when you only have one request in each entry, not multiple. As Joan mentioned, we recently shipped blur effects.
Please feel free to upvote the following for your other requests:

Import from other Adobe tools
You already have powerful design tools. Hence, please don't try to re-invent the wheel by providing a 'Design' tab. The right direction for Adobe to go would be to just enhance the current prototyping ability by just letting people import design from other tools from your suite. Currently it breaks really badly when you copy/paste stuff between tools and is quite painful.
9 votesI’m closing this story, as we have specific stories about importing from specific Adobe Apps. For instance:
- Adobe Illustrator: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12869052
Thanks!

Zeplin Integration. Show/Hide Grid
Will be great to see such a thing. It will be very helpful and save a lot of time.

Good import for easier migrating to the platform
What is also crucial whenever a new platform comes is a transition to that platform. What if I have 100+ files in .psd or .ai or .sketch and I really like the new XD platform. That's almost 100% chance. For now, no platform have at least average solution for that. I have files in .ai but I want my team to migrate to .psd or .sketch... and it's time consuming mechanistic manual monkey job.
It would be great and ease the transition if XD will have:
– Import to XD from .psd, .ai, .sketch with all the artboards
– Import…5 votesThere are several different requests here, and I think a bunch of them are already tracked as their own individual suggestions:
- Import full comps from AI: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12869052-import-illustrator-ai
- Import full comps from PSD: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12869040-import-photoshop-psd
- Import full comps from Sketch: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12978909-import-open-sketch-files
Please upvote any of those that you need, so we can get a better picture of which are the most important.
You can already bring content into XD from all three of these tools by copy-pasting individual elements/layers. Some of the issues listed in the original request here seem to be related to poor fidelity or other problems when importing content this way. If you’re hitting issues like that, could you please file a new UserVoice bug report with as much detail as possible? Ideally, please share screenshots or even an actual AI/PSD/Sketch file that shows the problem.
Thanks!

Simply make XD full Adobe CC ecosystem friendly...
Well... after trying many times XD and giving up frustrated after every try, I’ve reached some thoughts about why its still unusable for my “particular” user experience:
1. I’ve been doing user interface mock-ups with Illustrator for at least a decade, so my skills are focused on be productive with it and import image assets from Photoshop when needed. Then, I haven’t time to face a learn curve on a new design tool. I want to keep using Illustrator.
2. Being an Adobe CC long time user, I’ve grown with a deep understanding of Adobe CC ecosystem. Each program cooperates…

Shadows lost when copying from Illustrator
When i copy an artboard in from illustrator into xd, shadows get lost and are not imported. That style should be carried over instead of having to recreate it in xd

(Near) Seamless Integrations
Think about it - Xd+Dw, Mu, Ps, etc. I am not talking about all in one (Although, that would be extremely awesome!). In Comp, we have the ability to "Send to InDesign." We should be able to, by the click of a button, send a project (with all layers editable) to other programs that have the ability build websites, UI's, etc.
2 votesIt would really help us if you could let us know which products you’d like us to integrate with to help us prioritize which products to integrate first! There’s already an export to Muse story:

Over Flow plugins
Hi i just wanted to ask when the overflow plugin is going launch for Microsoft
1 voteOverflow plugin is already available as a plugin for XD on both Mac and Windows. You can navigate to the plugins menu under the hamburger menu. For more information on this: https://blog.overflow.io/adobe-xd-overflow-a-divine-connection-ba6908043dcf

Select all in common
Referring to Premiere Pro, it would be good to have an option to Select all clips with a certain aspect in common.
Similar to the "Select all Matching" function, which allows you to select one clip and then find all other clips that are from the same source file. "Select all in common" would allow you to match clips based on different commonalities.
For example, you would choose "Select all in common" and it would take you to a pop up window with different options, such as "Effects" "Label" "Length" etc.
So I could select "Effects", and in there would…

Dynamic content hosted outside of XD
It would be awesome if we could ensure design files and copy docs were in sync as copy changes are made. What if there was a google sheet that could serve as the copy source of truth and any changes were synchronized. Or you could make copy changes in XD as you lay things out and synch those changes with a copy file of some kind. https://www.contentsync.io/ and https://kopie.io/ are two tools that are thinking about this problem in different ways. Maybe there is room in XD for something like this?

Lock Aspect Ratio of Shapes Made Using the Drawing Tool - PDF X-Change Editor
Allow user to lock aspect ratio of a shape user has drawn so that when the scale needs to be changed, the shape proportions remain constant. I outline the shapes of land parcels using PDF X-Change Editor and the shape goes wonky when I try to reduce the size. This feature is built into Microsoft Word where you create the shape and then check a box to lock the aspect ratio. As you can tell, I am not a tech person, so I am trying to describe this in real life words.

Make options for Windows
This software will never be really enjoyable for Windows users until you ADD ALL THE FUNCTIONALITY TO OUR SIDE. For now it feels easier to design in Illustrator. Stop building out the Apple version and work on building the Windows version already.
1 voteI know it’s frustrating. We’re building on a very new version of the Windows platform (UWP), and when things are very new sometimes they take a little longer than expected.
We are very actively working on Windows support in XD. To help us prioritize that support though, we need you to upvote the specific individual features you are missing on Windows (rather than just filing an “everything” request like this one). For example:
- Zeplin integration on Windows: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/33045610-zeplin-integration-on-windows
- Preview window recording: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/18890884-record-video-from-preview-window-on-windows-like (though note the Windows-G shortcut lets you do screen recording in any app on Windows 10!)
- Live mobile device preview: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/17453770-tethered-usb-mobile-device-preview-on-windows -
Audio account storage.
I am offering a 'self-help' teaching for the voice. Client needs feedback on progress.

More tool such as Photoshop
I'd like to have more tool and options that I usually find in Photoshop such as using gradients, creating styles and text styles. Most of all I'd like to create guide lines and guide lines layout, so that I could create my project only in Adobe XD.
Thanks.
1 voteThanks for your feedback! Unfortunately, UserVoice works best when you only have one suggestion per submission. The good news is: all of these requests are already in our database. You can upvote here:

Also, linear gradients are already available on the Mac – you can drop down “Solid” from the color picker for object fills and select “Gradient.”
