Question

XD Cloud save breaks text tool interaction entirely

As the title reads, if I have the misfortune of writing something in a text field or even attempt to double-click into a text field to edit when a cloud save happens, XD stops all responses from text inputs. The only way around this is to change tools willy nilly and re-try the text field, yet, that rarely helps as other tools also tend to bug out as well.

 

Neither does waiting for the Cloud save to finish, if the bug happened prior. This issue has persisted for about a year now.

 

Please please please someone tell me the community already knows this and how to avoid it? It can't be right that you have to instinctly react to the top "cloud save" indication and suddenly treat the keyboard as if it's glowing red hot?

 

And if that's the case, could you perhaps develop an XD plugin that emits a huge flashing red triangle some time before the cloud save happens? Or would it just be better to never use anything cloud-related with XD?

Hi antonl,

we are sorry that you are experiencing problems with Ade XD. In order to help you, we need more information such as the version of Adobe XD you are using, which OS it runs on, and whether this problem occurs with all files. Thank you.

All files as far as I can tell.

Never mind, it seems the bug persists.


Still a thing.

 

It isn't reasonable to having to restart XD because of the feature cloud save state.

It's old tech. I just don't understand why all of the canvas but especially text fields must be destroyed. It's a state. It's a save state -- it's already happened. I don't understand how sending that saved state MUST destroy objects on the live canvas.
