Adobe XD 2020 Book by Brian Wood -> General Questions

Has anyone read this book and completed the examples?

 

I like that this book is offline but there isn't a more modern version (coming fall 2021).

 

XD has changed alot since this publication. I need some answers about the changes.

 

*Any comments get liked and the answer added.

 

My question(s) on this post:

 

1. Is there a way import Colors, Characters Styles, and Components in advance for client purposes?

 

Building/configuring those things take hours. I would prefer to push that to the customer before I start work so I can just work to deliverables.

I can't reproduce a coping bug. It pasts on all selected artboards.

Hey there. Haven't read / heard of that book, but I'll try answering your questions.

 

1. Import from where? You can import styles from CC Libraries, so if you created a styleguide or something else in illustrator, you can easily import them into Xd.

 

2. Pasting between artboards - it should be working fine, but there are some problems which may appear, depending on what you're copying from and how it's been set up. It would be nice to see both the source and the destination, so we can pinpoint where the issue is coming from.

 

If you can give us a close-up screenshot for one artboard that didn't copy properly, with the layers panels open, that would be nice. Even better - upload the file somewhere and share it here or via PM, so we can take a look at it and see why it isn't copying/pasting properly.

2. Pasting across artboards? Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't

 

Is this a bug? I selected 4 boards and it missed 1 completely, hit 2, and 2 were pasted off the artboard. See screenshot (XD_PastingAcrossarBoards)
