Horizontally Scaling Type in XD

Question

Is there a way (or plug-in) to horizontally scale type (using %) in XD, similar to Illustrator, InDesign and Photshop?  If not, they should add.   thanks

Scaling typography is a BASIC, and I do mean a BASIC, requirement for any design profession based on graphic design.We should be able to scale typograpy the way Photoshop, INDesign, and Illutrator allow us to do so. Why do they allow that option?, because Graphic Designers and others doing similar design work us it.It is a very basic need and should have been addressed long ago. Please add this functionality to Adobe Xd, Adobe. I know, "Unfortunately this feature is not available..." etc., BUT it should be. Illsutrator, Photoshop, and InDesign have this functionality...the justification for it is pretty obvious....people should not ahve to request it if it exists in their other programs.
