Adobe XD

I don't know where to put this to let Adobe know so I figured I'd just put it here. Has anyone else seen this YouTube video on Adobe XD? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIno2VAB5ssIt's the same thing as https://helpx.adobe.com/xd/how-to/web-mobile-app-ui-ux-design-basics.html which is Adobe's tutorial for beginners. The only difference is that the YouTube video has a new narration but all the images and the actual tutorial is the same and then if you want the full tutorial the guy on YouTube has it behind a Patreon. If you look at when he resizes the canvasess the pixel count is the exact same. Since there is no link to Adobe's website for the video I think there is some piracy going on. Not sure if Adobe allows people to rebrand and sell their tutorial videos or not but I just had to say something somewhere.

I've got an urgent question. I've developed my Android UI for a 1080*1920 xxhdpi Google Pixel. (since we perceived the user base won't be using old phones) I've used the "Sharing for Developers" feature to share the prototype. Selected the "dp" unit option for the developer. Incidentally, the font size of the "Heading" i.e. "72 pt" is exactly the same in display pixel units, i.e. "72 dp".Now, we urgently need to develop a mpdi version too. Would we need to scale the "72 pts" down to "24 pt" to achieve the "24 dp" on a 360*640 artboard? Would "24 pt" be same as "24 dp" in XD and for Android Studio? I've heard the Adobe XD uses a: " a virtual pixel for most of its measurements (including font size), which should be the same unit of measure as a CSS pixel, or most measurements in iOS."I can develop the XD Android Default 360*640 UI Kit too, just need to clarify my concepts to avoid this issue in the future. Thanks in advance!Helpful Link: https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-xd/which-unit

I installed the latest version of XD on my iMac and when I tried to open it I get a message saying 'Adobe XD cannot be opened because of a problem' I updated the OS (10.15.5) incase this was a problem and also tried to install earlier versions of XD but still get the same message. Can anyone help?

I have found XD to be extremely slow since the 30.0 update. I have been working on a new project that takes 3~5 minutes to open and another 3~5 minutes to save. XD often freezes for minutes at a time when I am making just simple changes or zooming in on an artboard. The file is also very large (over 100mb) even though I only have about 20 artboards. I am using both linked components, scroll areas and stacks for the first time so I don't know if any of these new features is affecting the speed or file size. The design system that I using (Salesforce Lightning Design) uses a lot of nested components and a new component for every icon, but I have built similar setups in XD files before and, even with 10 times the number artboards, often the file size is no more than 25mb. Older projects still seem to work fine its just this new project that is an issue. Really not sure what is causing the difference in performance and file size. Any help would be greatly appreciated! XD Ver

Is there a easy way to add a phone silhouette, when you're sharing your screens in Presentation mode? For eg. I've created a bunch of mobile screens on default artboard for iPhone X/XS/11 pro. So, when I create & send out the link in presentation mode, it should give me an option to automatically surround the screens in an iPhone X/XS/11 pro silhouette?

hi sirwhen i create a developer link it show errorplease give me a suggestionthanks 

Im currently doing some UI/UX for a product that is expected to have a small 480x272 screen due to cost reasons. I can of course make this in XD, but if I close XD, it will not remember the custom layout, and every new artboard is one of the presets. How can I create a custom screen size template to get around this issue? Thanks. Mike edit: I'm specifically talking about custom artboard templates. I'd like to add to the list. And, by new artboard, I mean when creating new ones with the tool. My existing artboards are fine.

Is there a way to add anchor links to positions on the same artboard on an overlay navigation? This is common UI with most apps and I'm surprised that it's not obvious how to do it.   <The Title was renamed by moderator>

Hello Xd!It's been great so far but I noticed that when I'm in prototype mode, there still isn't a feature (correct me if I'm wrong) that allows for whoever's going through the prototype to know which regions have been made clickable by the designer, in a guided manner from the software. I looked it up on the forum and saw that the last post on this was made in 2016, and would like to ask, is there any possible progress on this feature from the adobe XD team? It'll be extremely useful and feature (if added) for designers who have selected XD as their tool of choice, as it'll make presenting prototypes and interactivity in user testing loads better. Thanks!

Hello,  Some of my developers are unable to see pin location on Adobe XD screens while in design review mode. However, other developers can see them on the same file. I have confirmed with the ones who cannot see them that they are on the design review tab (not specs) and are in the split panel (not full screen). They can see the annotations on the right-hand side of the screen, but not where the accompanying pin is on the mock up. Is there some sort of sharing setting that would affect this? Thanks!

Downloaded XD file doesnt show artboards. The same file from same source in sketch format if opened in XD shows some of the artboards. but sketch app opens the sketch file perfectly and show all the artboards. Updated XD, gpu drivers and windows to latest already. Other files are fine. 

On macOS Catalina 10.15.3 During the saving of a new file, I created the local folder and entered the text field to create the Document name and XD became unresponsive. I can drag the windows around and switch between files open but that is all. MacOS is not reporting XD as unresponsive?    Thank you for any suggestions.    <The Title was renamed by moderator>

When I open XD it doesn't open and I get the message: --- XD quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple. --- I tried to unstall and reinstall, also tryed to install older versions, but same message... I'm on a MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017) with High Sierra (version 10.13.6) Thank you!   <The Title was renamed by moderator>

Olá. Como ver as especificações de design dos componentes? Ao compartilhar com o desenvolvedor,  não aparecem todos os estados 

Hi,My colleague sent me a XD file but I was not able to open it on the XD on my laptop which is already the latest version.Any tips will be great! 🙂 Cheers,Jonathan

Hola! no puedo utilizar otras fuentes en xd, que no sean las que me aparecen en la solapa... como agrego fuentes? Tengo un administrador de fuentes pero lo abro y tampoco se me cargan en xd (solo con xd tengo el problema) Saludos!

The design looks correct in preview mode, but when I export a shared link - it breaks some elements of the design. A dark striped background turns light and looks like it has a pixelated pattern (This is not an image, it is just a standard solid rectangle with a dark grey fill). And white boxes become transparent - they do use drop shadows. I have attached an image of what it should look like vs. how it looks in the shared link.  It's a mobile wireframe that doesn't use any images and is around 400 px wide. Thanks,   

Hi,Anyone knows how can I create a master button, that already has two status (On & off), that trigger the status of other elements in the same artboard? Should i Create a new artboard or I can have multifuncions for the same component?In attach there's a reference image. I would like to switch to grey all the circles once I push the power button (that also turns gray).Hope it's clear and somone can help me!Thanks

Hey,With latest XD update, I have noticed that I cannot access my saved files on my MacBook Pro from the 'Home' screen anymore. That option does not exist?Options available:- Cloud documents; 1. Shared with you. 2. Deleted I've already uninstalled XD once and re-installed it on my MacBook to make sure. Is it a bug, or what's the deal here? Cheers 

How do I copy artboards from one open XD document to another without having the assets included? The latter only creates huge issues cause I'm not able to delete the components from the new documents at all. They are there with no delete option. Can't delete single assets or multiple assets. I'm stuck with them sitting there. This has been an ongoing issue for years now. All I wanna do is to copy arboards with the design but NOT get the assets included at all in the new document. No colors, no componants, no character styles etc. This is something I'm in need to do all the time when making the transition from a lofi to hifi iterasjon. I just wanna start from scratch on the layout and create new assets from there in a seperate document cause its going to be shared seperatly as well. In other words: PLEASE make this possible.

How do I manage files that are published in CC into folders? Right now they are all just laying in an open structure and I can't see any way of adding them into sepereate named folders like I would do with my cloud documents. Have I missed something?

My links do not show up in XD - wires appear to link only to a blank grey page on XD preview or shared web view. The wires are all there and I've redone a few just in case I had not linked correctly, but still no links show up - in web or in preview. I just get a grey page with a line through the middle for all links. I've never experienced this before.

I am having some issues with XD, Sometimes there is a bug to rename components and xd not letting.I have for example 10 component instance and when I am editing master component of instances it is freezing and I need to wait about 5-10 seconds just to move the object inside the master component. I try on both last two versions of XD and result is same.My computer profile if needed:MacBookPro15,16-Core Intel Core i92,9 GHz32 GB RAMRadeon Pro 560X 4 GBIntel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

I have four buttons, for example, I am grouping them and resizing and I can't keep fixed space between. Is it possible with XD or not?I tried the new stack feature then it is not letting resizing.You can find in attachment image about my problem. ( I would like to make it also for more than 2 elements as well )Thank you in advance for the help.
