Adobe made several updates for its Experience Design CC, commonly known as Adobe XD. These developments came about two months after the app's Windows beta was launched.
Here's a quick sneak peak of the Adobe XD updates rolled out:
The updated Adobe XD now has the ability to host pinned comments. Those who are signed in could directly pin comments to the art board and email notifications. To add one, simply write your comment and click "Pin to Artboard."
Users can now easily share prototypes to the web that can be opened and viewed both on desktop and mobile. The update also allows users to configure upload settings (commenting, icon, and prototype name), upload to the Creative Cloud, and then obtain both the URL and embed code for sharing. Commenting for shared prototypes are also now activated.
Another feature that brings the Windows 10 application a step similar to that of in the macOS is the Start Screen. The button allows quick access to recently use files, artboards, links both the UI kits and in-app tutorial, among other shortcuts.
Another important feature rolled out is the ability to create scrollable artboards. This can be done by simply dragging down the bottom part of an artboard or selecting the artboard and modifying its scrolling properties via the Property Inspector. This could also allow users to export assets and artboards as SVG.
Every Adobe user should get acquainted with these two new features. The Background blur could blur anything behind an object, while the Object blur does the opposite, that is, blur the object itself.
As it could be noted, most of the added features are meant to bring the Windows 10 app to feature parity with the macOS version. Mac users, on the other hand, will have to be more patient as Adobe said it is currently working on productivity features "that are taking a little longer to bake."
Stay tuned to know more about the updates Adobe will be rolling out over the next few months.
