When exporting artboards as jpegs in XD (for social media buildouts) Currently, users can only export the artboards as "whatever their artboard name is.jpg". When your file has as many as 10-15 sizes (artboards) and you might create 10-15 sets each day, file naming is a crucial part of my (our) workflow.
I currently use Illustrator, and use a .ait file as a template; Each artboard is named as the size. So I have artboards named 1000x500, 1080x1080, etc. So that when I export the saved .ai file, it will export as "COOL_new_event_1000x500.jpg, COOL_new_event_1080x1080.jpg, etc. So that the only naming I have to do is when I save the .ait file as a .ai.
My social media department needs to be able to distinguish between all these event assets, and currently, I don't see a way to easily name my files. This is preventing me from using XD and on your public forum, other users have expressed this same frustration and I don't believe the professional responding understood the concern, those of us in the trenches of creating thousands of assets a month would love to be able to rename our files upon exporting. Thanks!
