Hello!

I want to do a drag type animation in my music app prototype but not in a horizontal way but more like a circular way .. same like the bbc radio app when you change the channel ...  how is it possible to do that?

Do the following:

Create a circle with the icons on it in the first artboard and group it. In the second artboard, copy/paste the group you created and rotate it 90º clockwise. Rotate the icons inside the circle -90 clockwise. Auto-animate these artboards. The circle will turn and the icons will follow it.

      You should be able to achieve the circular rotation look using the auto-animate feature, where you set the images to cycle through and have the assets placed in a position which gives the impression of circular motion.
      I don't think you would be able to drag and rotate in XD at the moment. Could be worth experimenting with the auto-animate options in connection to dragging though.
