[Design]-XD Overlays don't show up in the browser.

I'm trying to use the overlay feature on a prototype but it won't show up when I preview in the browser.

Images below show the view in the prototype function as well as what I see in the browser preview.

 

I'm using a XD on a PC running Windows 10, just updated to the latest version.

Hi Harshika,

thanks for the quick response. I figured out what the problem was. The position of the overlay preview when in prototyping mode doesn't seem to affect where it shows up when previewed in the browser. I just moved it to the top of the prototype and it shows up in the preview now.

Hi Drew,

 

We are sorry to hear you are having trouble viewing overlays in XD. Would you mind confirming if it's happening with all the files or with a specific file? It would be really helpful if you can share the screenshot of your about XD page.

 

We will try our best to help.

 

Thanks,

Harshika
