Hello everyone! The Adobe MAX update (Update 24) is bundled with a great set of features that allow you to readily collaborate with your team members, create interactive components, define alternative scenarios, and manage your assets in Creative Cloud libraries. Allow me to explain my excitement.
Real-time collaboration on documents: The feature that you have long been waiting for is now here! Coedit a cloud document along with your team members at the same time. In the end, you have a single document that is ready to go instead of having to manage multiple versions of a document from various designers. For more info, see Collaborate and coedit designs
Revision History: Did I say versions? Adobe XD saves versions of your files at regular intervals as you keep working on it. If you aren't happy with the changes, you can open a previous version and copy changes to the latest version. There isn't a rollback option yet, but hey! this is just the first iteration of the feature. There are more exciting enhancements to this feature coming up in future updates. For more info, see Manage design revisions
Interactive components using states: It's time for another Hurrah! Another request that was top of your list is now here! Create interactive components such as buttons, toggles, check boxes, and so on that reflect their behavioral aspects in real life. No more having to create multiple artboards or duplicate components to achieve these effects How neat is that?! For more info, see Add multiple states to components
Set multiple triggers: You can now set more than one trigger for an object allowing you to reproduce complex or alternative scenarios. For example, if you wanted to showcase a feature where clicking a button or pressing keyboard shortcut Cmd+N leads to creating a new document, you can now prototype that behavior in XD with ease. For more info, see Wire up your screens
Custom presets simplify and expand scope of sharing options: Popular presets are now available for sharing your documents for review, development, presentation, or user testing. These presets have settings baked into them that serve their intent and purpose. To go beyond and choose settings based on your requirements, use the Custom preset. For more info, see Share designs and prototypes
Add assets to Creative Cloud libraries and organize them: Assets added to Creative Cloud libraries can be used across Adobe XD projects as also in other Creative Cloud applications. In short, you can work with Creative Cloud libraries in the same way that you do in other Creative Cloud applications. For more info, see Creative Cloud Libraries for Adobe XD
Improved workflows for plug-ins and Sketch: Easily discover, install, and manage plug-ins from within Adobe XD. Import Sketch libraries as Design Systems in XD. For more info, see Plugins for Adobe XD

It totally is! Enter the component and select the object you want to be the trigger. Then set the transition, but when you do, select the next state in the destination in the property inspector. I've attached a really quick recording I made to show you how it works:
It's a bit confusing to remove some triggers when there are multiple ones. I'm used to drag the link away from the destination and the interaction is lost. When there are multiple triggers, I lost all of them doing that.
It's a bit messy to delete a single trigger. None of the configuration fields must have focus and then I can delete it with the "delete" or "backspace" buttons. It'd be nice if there were a "x" icon to remove the trigger from the list.
Started having an error with the components feature. I am able to add the default component style. But when add a state, It is becoming a master component too. So it is not showing any hover state or any other state. Thereby not allowing me to create different states. It functioned well but somehow today it stopped working. Please help soon on this as I have to train my team on this feature. Attaching the screen shot, where the hover state also shows a filled triangle like the master component. I have restarted the application and my system too. Pls help on this.
