How to create an overlay anchor links in XD?

Is there a way to add anchor links to positions on the same artboard on an overlay navigation? This is common UI with most apps and I'm surprised that it's not obvious how to do it.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. If I get it, you are talking about adding an anchor point on an overlay to target a specific object on the same artboard? If yes, I am afraid that option is not available as of now, however, it does sound like a great feature request. Please post a request on Adobe XD UserVoice: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007-adobe-xd-feature-requests

 

This is the best way of communicating with the Engineering and Product Management teams regarding issues and suggestions so they can be implemented in future releases.

    I am also having an issue with the overlay feature. I create a separate artboard with the image I want to overlay and in prototype, I link the elements I want to interact with overlay artboard and then the green outline and center arrow buttons show up at the top of the artboard and I cannot move it down or anywhere else on the artboard. Please advise

    The left image is the mobile version of the site. The right image is the overlay. I'm unable to link the nav items on the overlay to specific spots on the left artboard.
