Scrolling while using Overlay Action in Prototype Mode

Is there a way to allow the user to scroll on a page while using the overlay action in prototype mode? For example, if working on a mobile form and a keyboard slide in with overlay, there is no way that the user can still scroll on the page behind the keyboard. This is possible in Marvel where the keyboard is open but the user can still scroll and see all the form fields listed on the page and not just the ones that are within the exact scroll at the time the keyboard came in view. Here is an example of what I am trying to accomplish: examples - YouTube

This would be so helpful! Thanks

    You can kind of fake it by duplicating the Artboard and adding the keyboard with fixed position, then transition between the two Artboards. Admittedly it's not a real solution though. Advanced Overlay Positioning/Artboard controls – Adobe XD Feedback : Feature Requests & Bugs

    Thank you! I was able to "fake" it as you suggest it. Hopefully soon the overlay tool will become more powerful
