Holding down SHIFT key makes object flicker in Adobe XD

Hi there, 

I've been experience these two strange behaviours:

- Holding down SHIFT while dragging will make the object flicker.

- Trying to select several text elements with SHIFT doesn't work anymore.

 

Any thoughts?

After yesterday's outage, XD is working just fine once again. 
I don't really know what brought it back to normality, but... here we are.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. We will need to test this on our end, so could you please share a few more details like:

 

  1. The version of Adobe XD and the exact version of the Operating System.
  2. Does this happen on a specific file or multiple files?
  3. If it is happening on multiple files, please ensure that your Graphics card is up to date as per the manufacturer's website.
  4. Do you use an external monitor? If yes, could you test this without an external monitor and on the primary screen?

 

Regards

Rishabh

Hi Rishbah, 

Thank you for your prompt response. Here's what you asked for:

 

Adobe XD version 29.0.32   (Uninstalled, and re-installed just in case).

 

Operating System: 

Graphics card (updated just now)

 

This is happening in multiple files. I have 2 monitors connected through HDMI and HDVI>HDMI. It happens on both, and also, I've now detected that holding down ALT won't switch Zoom In to Zoom out, so it's definitely not a graphical issue, it's something to do with keys. And it doesn't happen in, say, Illustrator. So, it's XD specific.

 

Let me know if I can share anything else to help you with this.

 

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing detailed information, it's really helpful. Will it be possible for you to just test it once without any external monitor?
