    In a simple test it just worked for me, so it's possible there's something more complex about your layout/graphic. SVG is a coded format, so it's possible XD is coding the SVG in some way that Photoshop doesn't understand.

    If it's a vector graphic that you want to move from XD to Photoshop, you could export it as SVG and place that into Photoshop. It would not be editable in Photoshop, but it would be vector and scalable.

    Hi detowulung,

    I suggest posting your bug with details, and if possible a copy of your file on Adobe XD Feedback : Feature Requests & Bugs for the team to investigate your issue.

    Thanks,
