Unable to use overlay and scroll in XD

I am trying to make a prototype where i can scroll and use an overlay. I read about it not being able to scroll with an overlay but it was a topic from 2018 so i wonderd if it is fixed but i just can't figure it out. I have now made the prototype non scrollable because that is the only way the overlays do work but is looks so bad. And the prototype is really blurry/ you can not zoom in or out so setting the scrolling to none is also not really a good sollution. 

 

( i hope this made sense, there may be some misstakes in the language since i speak dutch and may english may not be the best but you get the point)

Hi @Robinkm, as for now, it looks like the best workaround is the one that's mentioned on that conversation ( I guess the one you mention is this https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-xd-discussions/scrolling-while-using-overlay-action-in-prototype-mode/td-p/10185878 ) by @Kenneth Kawamoto , duplicating the artboard with the one that has the fake overlay (which is a fixed element on the artboard) and being able to scroll, I'd do like that. If you haven't already, you might also want to upvote that feature request: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007-adobe-xd-feature-requests/suggestions/34610959-position-overlays-using-the-keyboard-arrow
