Question

How do you mimic an expanding canvas?

I wish for the canvas to "grow" as selections are made. 

 

So, the user scrolls to the bottom, clicks a button choice, and then the canvas expands downward, they can scroll down further, and make more selections. 

 

How is this simulated in XD?

 

Thanks!

    My initial thought would be to use additional artboards. When the user taps on the button, navigate to a new artboard that has the additional content on it. Not the cleanest, but it should get the job done. If you are not familar with scroll groups, this also will probably be part of the solution.

     

    Good luck!

    Thanks. This was my only thought too. However, I think the status of components won't transfer between the artboards. So if the user has interacted a fair bit above the point where they make a decision that expands the webpage downward, those properties won't flow to the new artboard I don't think, so it breaks the experience. I could be wrong though... I'm new at Adobe Xd
