Question

I like XD but there is one huge black hole

I can't place objects from other adobe applications like I can in Illustrator or photoshop. I basically have to move them to the cloud library and then access them from XD. This is a huge nightmare since it takes to sync anything slowing my workflow down by a factor of 3. A lot of files I add to the library are quite large which makes syncing slow.  Right now I have been more than 10 minutes to sync a file. This is unacceptable.

 

It is time for Adobe team to stop pushing the Cloud Library workflow and go back to the old proven Placement method. 

 

Besides, moving everything to the cloud library is a huge management problem. How do I archive the XD project with all the assets in the Cloud Library? I can't keep them forever, I'm going to run out of space.
