Working on a mock with over 100 artboards. Moving between them, zoming and looking for desired artboard consumes very time and generate frustration.

Could it be possible to make a small navigation pane with a small view of all project to move fast between aryboards? Even, some smart way to pin focus points to jump between them.

Hi There,

Thank you for writing to us, Please can you try to switch to the artboard by going to the layer panel and double click on artboard name. It will bring focus on that specific artboard.

Please let us know if this what you are looking.

Thanks,

Vertika Gupta

Not usefull... with more than 100 hundred artboards, many of them with similar names, or even not meanuingful ones, the act of search something is very time consuming and un-intuitive. When at last I find what I was looking for, I forgot why I needed. Is like to search components in assets... hundreds and hundreds of small icons with no hierarchy, too much cognitive effort that breaks de work flow and focus.

XD needs a meaningfull and user friendly way to manage vast amounts of "things", as usual we found on a normal project. My projects usually end with hundreds of proposals, user cases and alternatives, and uncountable components.

Sketch solved very easilly years ago, with folders to organize components. It is as easy as follow "atomic" design guidelines... each component is in a logical hierarchycal tree, you can find quick whatever you need using only common sense.
