Hi - new to XD so need a little help!
I have 5 x  icons on an artboard in seperate blocks and need for them all to scale together, but as they are all different, I have made them all seperate components. I realsise this is wrong because if I scale one component none of the others change. Is there a way of linking the components together! There's an example attached. Any help appreciated!

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Could you please try to group the components and turn off responsive resize and then scale and let us know how it goes.

 

Regards

Hi - thanks for the reply.

I've tried a couple of ways.

1. The top Component with all the icons will scale but each component is not in a fixed position when scaling (which I need)

2. If I group the individual Components and scale the same things happens, if I select on component from the group it scales on its own.

3. 2nd screen grab is what I need to happen.

Help!

I'm not 100% sure exactly how you want them to scale, but I think you want them to scale all together proportionally. If that's the case, group them first (important), then hold Shift as you resize them and all the components should scale. 

 

If that's not want you want, maybe you can be more specific of how you want them to change?

Dan, but it doesn't... And whats the purpose of grouping a component? A component is already a group. This is really the worst! It should be a basic thing to scale proportionally!
