Copy link to clipboard
Copied
I took an icon, copy pasted it to create a linked copy Then I changed color on original. It did not update on copy. Also nothing happening in assets panel to indicate a change was made. How can I get my linked assets to update? Is that feature in latest XD? I am learning XD through Linked in learning and they might have older version...When I make it a component though it does update...so confusing for beginners!

Hi,
To create linked elements across documents, you have to use components. If you converted that icon to a component and copy/paste to a new document, it will create a linked component. At this point, any changes you make to the component in your source document will trigger an update to linked component instances of that component.
