No :-). The problem is that this is a simple transparency "Settings" that is hidden in "File > Document Settings". Common sense always had me look in "Illustrator > Settings..." or at least in the same place it should be next to "Transparency Grid".   As said, it's in "Document Settings"... not the most intuitive place, as there are many similarly named "settings" menu options spread out within the menus. ...

Hey! Thanks for your quick response... I've actually been trying to solve this problem for years... but always within "View" or "Settings" since I assumed it was a UI configuration setting. Searching Google and YouTube I only found answers on how to remove checkerboard backgrounds from images downloaded from the internet. ... View more

Ok... 4 years later, something so basic isn't there. No doubt Adobe bought Figma. ... View more

That's why Adobe has been all these years without any kind of serious improvement on XD. They were saving (our) money to buy Figma and get all the XD refugees back home. ... View more

Well... "quickly updating". 262 words to describe 6 steps that implies yet more sub steps, managing components and dragging-dropping, and all that prone to errors. In Adobe's own Illustrator or inDesign, linked images are authomatically updated after you edit them externaly. Simply let say that XD is a perfect example of bad UX and extreme cognitive friction. ... View more

And please... don't tell me that ridiculous workarrounds of uninstall or deleting CC libraries from my disk and reset whatever thing. I'm a designer, not a developer. (even don't say "we apologize... we are so sorryy... blah, blah" we pay for working solutions, not excuses) ... View more

Oh!... only those four steps? Really, we XD users complain about any insignificance. Anyway... left Font Awesome behind many years ago, when I saw there wouldn’t be any solution to that. Now simply copy paste the glyph converted to curves and paste right at the text’s side. It's a waste of time of course, but hey, there are still worst things on XD that makes burn your time (and patience) multiplied by 1000.     ... View more

Yep!... thanks. I've tried to leave the "vice" of working with XD, but you know... face learning curves in the middle of important projects is not the thing I want. Anyway, I'll take seriously your suggestion... really I don't need perfect gradients or flourishes that I rarely use, I only need a tool that I can trust it, an can do what I have in mind. Now it's a Russian Roulette, I can't make project’s accurate budget calculations, because it can be from hours to months. Simply look how this left menu exploted in my face, when updated just in the middle on a crucial presentation to stakeholders, of a very big air line...    ... View more

Haahahaha!!!... just voted, I'm the 9th!!! Awesome to see that common sense has to be voted. Anyway, even to vote or write any opinion, I've to login each time I need to get in in this community or uservoice (why two different places to ask simply for justice?) In every web app, forum or whatever place I go, I can get in seamessly... Adobe commounities/uservoice is the only place that sistemathically asks me to log in, no matter if I've been there yesterday. With such practices, I can understand why only 9 votes of a such basic thing (among hundreds of others that barelly get the 100) Even, it's a good barometer to see the real amount of "serious" XD's users. ...

"It looks to me like this feature is working the way it was designed"... so 3 years ago, it "looked to somebody" that this absolute design failure and waste of time is working the "way it was designed". So obviously, the "Correct answer" came from somebody that hasn't any idea about Usability, even nor about XD in itself. 2022, and stil wasting 100's of hours only clicking the component to memorize his structure. It prones to a stressing session of broken components, losing states, jumping from state selector  to the component, expanding it, fix the eye on it, and see it again close. Sure, that was the "way it was designed" according to a personal opinion of somebody that should to hel ups, no send us links to places that nobody reads at Adobe. Simply, XD is an absolute shame of product. Even it fails to work as is intended to do as an UX design tool. Angry, frustration and impotence about all those thousands hours Ive lost since I made the wrong decission to try it: Create a simple collapsible menu, three or four states, with another component inside... a week to test and make it work after hundreds of failures. Came a small change from customer... a week more.  ... View more

Hey, just made it a pair of times, now seems works right. Anyway, the new grouping system by slash doesn't work perfect, some items doesn't group right. Anyway, that's another story, so suppose other users will write about that in the future. Many thanks Edu ... View more

Ooook... so, after hours working on a design system, my customer decided to change the base type of font, and the color. I've made at least 20 different character styles. Does it mean that I have to multiply by 20 all the time invested to edit manually each individual text style? It means for sure more than 30 minutes... Tediously manually setting the font by searching through the infinite dropdown list, and write manually the color (no way to select it from your swatches), is done at least in one minute. Even prone to errors, as with this high contrast and minimalistic XD interface is cognitive difficult to distinguish anything after your fifth change. As usual, XD is still a buggy beta app. ...

Worst here... created a component Library in XD. I'm the only owner, so I could add more assets from other apps, as Illustrator. But not! It appear in Illustrator as a "linked " library, an can't do nothing with it (for example, add vector illustrations to the library. Instead for example, I made another library in XD (the one named "Jettainer DS + Compopnents"), but this isn't not linked and can be edited and added new items. I've been one week trying to figure it out what happens... and I assume it's simply UX bad conception, limitations and usability. Too complicated to manage assets between libraries and always bugs and conection issues depending on which tool you are using. ... View more

No... each time I move from my Mac to my PC I've to sign out/sign in to get the missing fonts. Normally there are some fonts that doesn’t work anymore, so I've to manually delete and re add it again... an absolute frustration and waste of time. Anyway... there are two different issues here, that combined with XD bad usability makes things harder.   Adobe CC and Creative Cloud App fonts management: Is a real pain, all apps from Adobe suffers the same issue. Illustrator, XD, And InDesign being the ones I usually use. Constant issues with missing fonts between different computers and OS. Even, it lacks an efficient way to manage the sometimes hundreds of activated fonts. No way to organize, no filter, only manually look one by one. Even worst with my own installed fonts. Terrible and unpractical. XD itself... It lacks any glyphs management tool, I have to type it in Illustrator, copy them, and blindly paste in XD (glyphs renders as a square while in text mode) This app, is still nowadays a beta-ish version of a supposed Usability Design program, and lacks the basics of any well-designed interface with Usability standards. I won't list again the hundreds of bugs and the lack of any basic UI design principles, we have already over this community messages as far as 2016 asking for elemental implementations, that are still waiting in the "backlog" (as the classic “dark mode”).   I’m sad I couldn’t write any “good news”… but really, after some years using exclusively XD, I still waste a high percentage of my working hours simply to manage bugs, crashes and find workarounds to overcome the limitations and bad usability of it. Really, I lost important customers because of it,  health and money.   ... View more

Ok... I'll try this weekend. As you can imagine, after the years, we users have acquired aversions and panic to face endless random tests. Not only is Adobe CC that are in the variables, also different Operating systems and different machines. As tested last years… sync in CC is more or less working, but fonts are an entirely other story… even when I have OpenSans activated from Adobe… always errors and missing fonts when open in different platforms Mac/Win (and iOs for XD to visualize mocks) I’ll tell if something changes, although I lost faith long time ago… ...
