Can't export components, can't zoom

Hi!

I can't export selected components I created after updating XD to 39.0.12.12

The only export option that works is the batch option, which exports all components, but not the ones created after updating XD.
My workaround is to export selected artboards to svg, and get the elements I need from there, which is time-consuming to say the least.


Also, zoom doesn't work reliably using the Ctrl + spacebar, nor with Ctrl + "scroll". Something seems to get stuck, and I can mostly get it working again by CTRL + "+" or CTRL + "-" but it does hinder work.

 

I uninstalled, installed a previous version, and reinstalled the latest version to no avail.

 

I browsed earlier threads about similar issues, but it seems to be a recurring problem in different versions. Please advise.

    I am able to export component and artboard.

     

    My steps are:

    1. Select component 
    2. Mark for Export (Shift+E)
    3. Export-> Selected (Ctrl+E)

     

    I am on Win 10 with latest XD version

    Thanks Ares,

    I got confused by the workflow, it's been a while since I used the application. Thanks for making me taking a second look.

     

    I expected 'Export Selected' to export all selected components in the asset panel.

    But 'Export Selected' only works for items selected on the canvas.

    I was able to export the components one by one,

    by right-clicking on each item,

    clicking 'Edit main component',

    and then Ctrl + E to save a single svg.

     

    Marking an item for Export with Shift + E ensures that they are exported when using the File > Export > Batch function.

     

    Issue resolved.  I expect the zoom problem to be addressed in future updates, so will refrain from using the cloud cleaner tool for now.
