I'm designing on a prototype that uses a camera. I've researched how to do it but I got 0 result. I don't know how to show that when you click the camera button the next artboard will be an action taking a photo.

I hope you're getting what i'm trying to say. Please help me.

First, grab a screenshot from the device you want to mirror with the camera active. Deconstruct that image into the sub-elements in XD. Replace the camera image with something contextually meaningful. Then wire up those sub-elements as you need them to.

XD won't allow actual access to the device's camera. You will have to fake that action completely.

Thank you for the response.

Oh I see. How can I fake it? do you have an idea? I'm new to XD.
