[Component States] wont work when shared for review/development links are viewed in browser in XD.

I am working on a project and the new states are absolutely amazing. However, when i add states like hower effect for a component and share it for review/development with my client and when the client opens it on web the hower states just wont work. So there is no point of states if it works only in app preview. Is there a fix to this or am I doing something wrong?

    Correct answer David Alcala - Adobe

    Hover interactions will work in the browser in Design Review mode, as long as a Home artboard has been set in Prototype mode. Select the artboard you want to be the Home artboard, and then click the "house" icon. For States support in Design Specs mode, please add your vote to this feature request:

    With the introduction of states it is now easy to create hovers. But how/where can a developer see those specs of the hover when the file is shared for development?

      Yeah i'm having the same problem, we've been testing this today;

       

      • No spec in the dev share for the interactions - components do not show colour, character style or any of the hover or interaction code.
      • Colours are not pulling through from the assets generally
      • Character styles are not pulling through to the dev share generally
      • Share for dev feels quite broken and is not sharing all of the assets, even those marked for export.

        Not exactly sure I know what you mean here, but could it be that you're watching it in "design spec mode" and not preview? (You can switch between them in the top right side of the preview).

         

        I myself find it quite sad that you can't see the different states in design spec though. Makes the states kinda worthless for the developers... or maybe I missed something to?

        So when you generate a link to share your artboard for design review/development, and when you open the link on a browser the hover states won't work. The whole point of states becomes useless because you can't see the states in development preview or design preview. So is the only use of states to use it in desktop preview? Is there a workaround to this?
