Settings and activity

This might be dead in the water, because InCopy was originally developed exclusively for InDesign, as the name suggests, and because no one from Adobe has acknowledged this feature suggestion in 5 years, but this would be tremendously useful.

Actually, really good copy management is one of the ways XD can gain on Figma.

+1, it's highly unintuitive that the artboard tool only draws new artboards. My artboards are long, so I often can't interrupt my flow to scroll to the top left corner of the artboard, or move a background element to click on the artboard directly.

I'm a little shocked to have purchased an M1 iPad Pro with a 13" display, which runs Illustrator and Photoshop for iOS well, as well as every other app I've tried. Except one. Adobe XD.

After 5 years of using XD, I'm forced to consider either switching to Figma (which works really well on all platforms), or returning this iPad.

1. Is a full-fledged XD app for iPad iOS at least on the roadmap? (If so I can at least aim to hold out for a little while and use my 12" Macbook when portability is required).

2. Also, if such an app is in development, will it include newer features such as co-editing? There are several members of our design team with whom I work on files simultaneously.

This is even more relevant now than it was in 2017, when the feature request was originally created. Since then co-editing in XD became a feature.

Co-editing is an incredible feature that I'm so happy to have. However, now that there's many of us working at the same time on the desktop XD app (within the same cloud-shared files), it's become a pretty big hindrance to not be able to annotate and share information without publishing a link and commenting there.

What would be ideal:

1. An option for comments or threads of comments, attached to an artboard (like they're absolutely positioned relative to the artboard) would be amazing

2. Also, the ability to toggle this comment/annotation layer on/off in a dedicated place, like toggling the grid

There should be a search or at least filter input field on the XD home screen for finding documents.

At this point I have hundreds of cloud documents in the "shared with you" tab, and I can never find what I'm looking for because there's just too many items.

I can find my own cloud documents in Creative Cloud's own search, but this does not include documents that have been shared with me.

This is more of a bug because it works in design mode on the desktop application, but does not appear in a shared XD link on web.

Presumably there is an encoding issue with emojis. Other unicode symbols (like unusual arrows, symbols, stars, character from other languages, etc.) work.

The issue appears to only affect emojis, and only for published `xd.adobe.com/view` links

It also affects all fonts, even if I set the text to a default system typeface like Helvetica.

This is really important because it allows you to work on a particular brand across multiple files.
After a certain point, too many artboards with large assets cause XD files to be too large.

It also means that grid and gutter setup, and adding color swatches and components doesn't have to be done for each file, which is an annoying setup process.

Will mentioned a pretty cool trick by setting the blend mode of the image to luminosity. And it's much appreciated. But it's kind of a hack to get this to work and a far cry from an actual filter.

Even Apple's Keynote has this feature. I'm surprised it isn't in XD yet.

I'm kind of shocked that this isn't an existing feature. Even non-design apps like Apple Pages and web apps like Google Sheets have it..
