To me this is just another unhappy UX decision: To navigate the sidebar by arrow keys. its a common action for me (and i cant be the only one) to select a layer in the left side menu, and then try to move the elements position in the canvas trhough the arrow keys. Cant do that anymore, now its a nightmare, all it does is it just navigates the lef side menu. now why would i want to do that?? cant select the layer directly in the canvas because its behind another layer. i'm stuck like for the past 10 minutes trying to figure it out. please remove that feature, so frustrating. im getting tired of these horrible UX decisions.

Hi, I just wonder if you are using MacOS? Because on Windows there is no way to navigate through layers by the arrow keys.

It's the same for Mac so it's not designed as such - reinstall XD, perhaps?

It's happening to me on windows.
If it's not a desired feature, then it is a bug. I'm attaching a gif with the issue. Should I post it somewhere else?

Do you happen by any chance to have your accessibility controls turned on? This looks like it's moving from control to control, which is not the default behavior.

I'm not sure about that. how can i check it? is that related to the windows UWP standards? it started to happen only recently, probably with the last XD update

Hi guys!
I'm having exactly the same problem. It's super annoying.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!

Same here, it's one of the issues that's been lingering around for more than a year, along with the keyboard input freezing bug. I've just learned to live with it.
It's temporarily fixed if you click and drag the element you want to move with the mouse. Then the arrow keys go back to nudging instead of switching layers. Unfortunately, it keeps coming back randomly.
