Blurry image when viewing published prototype in the browser (still not resolved)

[sdfcasdfsdfsdf]

Stop marking my question as Answered. The issue has not been fixed and I have no ETA on the fix.

All my prototypes look blurry when viewing them in the browser. They only look fine when I go full screen mode. Please fix it asap as it blocks my daily activities.

See example below:

Hi there,

Would it be possible for you to share your files with us for testing? You can upload them to a shared location such as CC or dropbox and share the URL with me over a private message. To send a private message, click my picture and use the message button.

We will do our best to help.

Thanks,

Hi there, I have been working on this case on Preran's behalf. I would like to inform you that the image looks fine when published on the browser.

I have tested it on both Windows and Mac OS. Could you please share the version of your and the browser that using?

Thanks,

Hi, thanks. I am not sure what's going on, but I am having this issue in both IE and Chrome browsers:

This is what it looks like when I open it in either browser (look how blurry everything is, basically unreadable):

btw, I think I noticed this happening after you updated the layout Adobe Creative Cloud

Thank you for the information. I am not sure as to what could be causing this issue. Let me check if the team has heard of this issue. I couldn't find anything in Uservoice as well Adobe XD Feedback : Feature Requests & Bugs

Feel free to file a bug in UserVoice, and I will have the team look at it.

jayh: If you can share your prototype link here or over a private message, we can test it for you. To send me a private message, click my picture and use the Message button.

I published your file, and I don't see any issue with the published output being blurred in the browser in a non-full screen mode.

Is there anything I should be doing to reproduce your issue? I am viewing the published file on Safari (Mac OS). My colleague tried viewing it on Chrome (Windows) and he could not see any blurriness either.

Thanks,

Preran

I have exactly the same issue, this is happend since the last update. Very blurry on chrome, firefox etc in any other size other than full screen.

[sdfcasdfsdfsdf]

Did you find a work around by the chance?

[Preran]

I opened the file that Jay shared on my computer and it looks perfectly fine on Chrome (Mac OS). I have no idea as to what's going on.

I would like you to use the UserVoice link that I shared with you to report. I can have the team take a look.

Thanks,

Preran

Please investigate as this prevents me from doing my day to day activities. Thank you

Hi there, thanks for your  using Adobe XD and sharing feedback. I would request you to vote for this bug: - Second monitor blurry prototype – Adobe XD Feedback : Feature Requests & Bugs and share more information in comments.

Thanks,

I have found out this might have to do with a second monitor setup.

The prototype on my main macbook screen is perfectly sharp, but when I drag or open this same prototype on the second monitor, it all becomes very blurry and bad.

I will post a bug for this to be investigated.

I have the same issue with blurry prototypes, I'm on a mac seems to be random...some layouts it happens then not on others. Also doesn't seem to matter what browser I use.

The prototypes are so buggy in XD, I refuse to send links to clients...end up sending JPGS — which defeats the purpose of this app! Crazy frustrating.

[elainecc]

Are the images or the vectors pixel snapped?

[davidr55142013]

Yes, as in "Align to Pixel Grid".

BTW:

My dark bg layout is previewing much worse than the lighter layout....

i.e. white text, or icons are blurry on top of a photo or solid black background.

[elainecc]

Sorry for all the questions, but it’s going to help us narrow down what’s going on. Are any of these blurry object fractionally sized?

[davidr55142013]

Questions are good, I want to use XD...it's quick for layout, just have to get the prototypes working!

Everything on the layout is blurry, the text, shapes, photos so not limited to anything sized.

[AbolBahadori]

I am experiencing the same issue.

[davidr55142013]

This is not a monitor issue......I've done tons of testing. It's a random bug with XD

[canuckd]

This is getting ridiculous. There is clearly an issue with publishing prototypes and seeing low quality images. My team is experiencing this still. It happens when you publish a prototype, not when you just preview in XD.

Time to switch over to Figma as they get how this tool should be used.

Hi there,

We're sorry for the frustration and we understand it could be very annoying for you. If you will look at the status of the feedback page here: Prototype blurry and squished – Adobe XD Feedback : Feature Requests & Bugs it shows "Bug fix in progress".

We'd request you to please submit your feedback and update the discussion.

Thanks,

Harshika

Hi,

I have also been experiencing this issue. I have imported large jpegs of my designs into XD and know that the quality of the jpegs is fine. When I preview the prototype within XD (by pressing the play button) my prototype and images like fine, sharp and crisp.

However, when I export my prototype (Share > Share for preview) and generate a URL link, once I few this in browser, any long pages in my prototype go completely pixelated. The shorter pages are ok, its all the long pages. They are completely unreadable.

I have found a work around currently, and that is by slicing any long jpegs into sections and piecing them together within XD. For long pages, this can be up to 10 slices in order for the designs to not look pixelated! So it's very time consuming.

Hope this helps resolve this issue, as I am also having to spent three times as long on creating my prototypes by following this slicing method!

Thanks

Thank you for sharing the workaround solution, Alysia. We really appreciate your efforts. Please feel free to reach out to us in the future for any query related to Adobe XD. We'd be happy to help.

Thanks,

Harshika

This is not an acceptable workaround, Adobe you are charging insane amounts of money for your products and this is table stakes for a product like this. How could you not have tested this?
