Adobe XD animated GIF support

As this is a UI/UX design package and UI/UX designers create animated GIF's (with Adobe packages) because they eliminate the need for cumbersome/heavy code and they have limitless animation capabilities - coupled with the fact that Adobe ditched their best html/css animation package in 'Adobe Edge' which enabled designers to create amazing UI examples - you would think it would be somewhat of a priority to accomodate animated GIFs thus allowing a tried and tested form of adding joy to any website to be used.

ADOBE - PLEASE inject support for animated GIFs within XD.

Kind and hopeful regards

I was able to create animations in XD without auto animate. Or plugins. Take a look. Ivanstudios.com

In general great to bypass autoanimate but nevertheless it`s unbelievable that Adobe XD does not support simple animation import. It would have been realy simple.

Yes please say this for everyone. I made an entire site for golfing company with amazing animated gifs that completely dont work in this program. Theres super realistic moving grass and ultra realistic clouds moving and a golf ball that bounces off one of the graphics and reapears in another on timed to fall into the golf hole and everything would have been completely ground breaking. T.T
