Hi, everybody!
I have an issue with showing character styles names in xd link which is very convenient for developers.

I'll attach a screenshot if you can see how it looks to me. I have text many styles set in my xd document  (H1, Body1, Subtitle1) but there is only 1 or 2 which appear properly.

    Hi @dennizax ,

     

    I'd be happy to help you with your issue. There are a few things you can check to make sure all of your character styles are properly visible:

     

    1. Check that the character styles are actually applied to the text: Make sure that each instance of text that you want to be visible to developers is actually styled with the appropriate character style. You can check this by selecting the text and looking at the Character Styles panel in XD.
    2. Check that the character styles are properly named: In order for character styles to be visible to developers in an XD link, they need to have a unique name. Make sure that each of your character styles has a distinct name that accurately describes the style.
    3. Check that the character styles are properly published: When you publish your XD document, you have the option to include or exclude certain elements (like character styles) from the published link. Make sure that you have selected the option to include character styles in your link.

     

    If you've checked all of these things and are still having issues, would you mind sharing the file & the development link with us through DM for testing? You can add the file to a shared location and share the link by clicking on my name.

     

    Regards
