Horrible experience importing from Illustrator to XD

[DanielBlazquez]

I have upgraded to the latest version and copying from Illustrator and pasting to XD is a nightmare

Can't paste gradients. Even the simplest ones.

It generates a lot of useless elements

The text boxes are broken

☹

Illustrator 25.0, XD 34.2.12

Hello Rishabh. I tried that solution and it doesn't work. 

It stopped working when I installed Illustrator v25. It happens with any kind of shape, including the simplest ones:

Hi,

Is the problem isolated to the copy/paste from AI to XD? What happens if you open/import an AI file from local file system?

Cheers,

M.

Only when copy and pasting. In the previous version it worked seamlessly.

Text import from AI seems to work well too.

More and more bugs...

Illustrator 25. Left a box with a simple gradient. Right the same box in the library.

Adobe XD import (not copy&paste). This used to work perfectly.

I have lost a week of work because of these bugs. 😞

Hi @DanielBlazquez ,

Sorry for the trouble this caused you. We've prepared a fix and it will be rolled out in XD 35.1.

Thanks,
