In my 5years of using KZbin i've never commented on anybody's video but if am going to comment am glad its your video This video is a life saver thank you so much

[@maddybeardUX]

Awh thank you!! That means a lot :)

[@TheUsworldwide]

Dear Maddy i just discovered this channel you are amazing! thank you

[@casspirburns]

Refreshing to see a tutorial that gets straight to the point

[@lisageigercarroll3788]

you're a lifesaver. I've been trying to make working components for an embarrassingly long time. you're fantastic. thank you

[@kate-lynnseverino2442]

Wow, I loved this. I am dipping my feet in the Adobe XD world and would love to learn more about it. Your videos are so easy to follow. Please make more using this design tool-so valuable. Thanks for sharing, Maddy!

[@Pndchris]

Simple, clear, nice examples and straight to the point. Great job Maddy

[@fluffymaverick]

Thanks Maddy and to your soothing voice while teaching. This would really help me.

[@maddybeardUX]

Wow thank you so much! :)

This is a great informative vid with great explanations. Merging and subtracting shapes would have worked better for the scan button at 10:23. What font is "scan"?

HI maddy Just started learning XD last week! This component feature is very cool, exactly what i need and you explained it very well!! Also I just learned from your video about a billion cool things all in one short and sweet video!!! This will keep me out of trouble ( or in trouble??) for some time!

Hi there, thanks for the video. I have a main component but am trying to insert a new element into one of the states - is this possible? I am really struggling to do this. Any help would be greatly apprecitaed! thanks!

[@jameshofton]

Very good, thanks for making a great tutorial. So well explained

[@Law260]

Great tutorial! Thanks a bunch!

[@Rana48250]

This was great,But i was waiting for the second part to know how to let all the components move up as well when the first item is deleted, even if it was second, 3rd or 4th.

[@laurenkoch5382]

Thank you so much! I'm new to XD and glad I found your channel! Great explanations!

[@arnegovaerts8822]

Hi Maddy, thanks for your great videos! As a beginner I struggle with one thing, once I've created a component, how do I add text or other stuff in general to it afterwards? Thank you and best of luck 🖖

[@maddybeardUX]

You’ll have to do that on the main component level! And then if you want to disable anything on an instance, you can do that either by hiding it on the instance level or by creating an “on/off” Boolean variant which lets you show and hide different elements within a component using a toggle switch :)

[@arnegovaerts8822]

You are awesome for taking the time for this clear answer

[@csongorlosonc6640]

thank you. Really usefull

[@littletrashhumans4955]

Thank you for this video! Such great information. What sort of website platforms do you use to make these designs? I never know if people are doing everything with coding or if there's a platform to easily transport these types of projects/website designs.

[@maddybeardUX]

Hey! So for websites I usually build them in Webflow, but when it comes to my app design work, I’m always working with developers who actually code them :)

[@alejandraavendano6480]

Very useful and well explained ! Thank you so much for creating this content.

[@mywrath2421]

nice cursor control

[@IT-cl2pd]

Can we link any of these components (buttons, toggles..etc) hyperlinks like in designing a website scenario, or should we just link them in prototype mode, then export everything using Web Export plugin? Thank you so much, and keep it up 👍👍

[@sabreanicole2114]

As always, everything is super. Waiting for new cheats from your side

[@zoeroberts2991]

So helpful! Thank you!!!

[@wuzz5703]

just use enter between sentences

[@nphoenixcrimefighter]

Well done. no judgment. :)

[@Martina-rc1vf]

thanks for the video! :) I have a question when I create a toggle: how can I link the two buttons with images that are activated depending on the button choice?

[@Marlou622]

Helped a lot! Thanks!

[@mujahedhany9499]

amazing video , follow you from Palestine

[@maddybeardUX]

Hey, thanks!

[@rucharaje8806]

Thank you, it was very helpful!

[@teilzhong5680]

how did you add trash sign into component, I tried several times but didn't work

[@maddybeardUX]

First copy the trash icon, then click INTO the component. This may take a few clicks, or you can command/control click. THEN paste the icon in :) You can also use the layers panel to do this!

[@saschajarick8579]

Thx so much for precisely explaining it to us in your way. Can't stress enough how good your precise style is for explaining. I'm looking forward to learn a lot from you

[@maddybeardUX]

Wow, thank you! That really means a lot :)

[@bx_legende0760]

Thank u for this ❤❤

[@offwig]

This was a great video on helping me understand components and prototyping states, but how do you personally account for the notch in the screen of modern phones in Adobe XD? I made a test design and tried it on my phone, and the notch was actually in the way of the drop down menu I was creating.

[@maddybeardUX]

Yes, you should always account for the notch! Scroll to the end of this post to see the guides you can add to your artboards to make sure you’re staying within the safe area with your designs :) (TLDR it’s 44 px on top for the notch) instagram.com/p/CP5wS76gMji/?

[@shaunazar]

Nice job!

[@ezzchiTV]

So hopeful. Easily digestable.

[@botshelomoalusi1569]

My XD does not show “component master” option, what could it mean? Or what should I do? 🙊

[@maddybeardUX]

Command or control click on a component and then you should see an option that says "edit main component" :)

[@smilli6415]

i was looking for ux ui roles , most of them ask for adobe creative suite knowledge , i am good with ui design tools but not with adobe suite.. when and what do you amazing ui designers use suite for ? whats are your main tasks ui designers do on suite ...thanks a lot ..

[@maddybeardUX]

In my experience, as long as you know the basics of ANY ui design tool (Xd, Figma, sketch) then you’re totally fine when it comes to programs!! Don’t not apply just because the job posting says Adobe suite :) They’re all so similar, you’ll learn the company’s tool of choice as you go!

[@maddybeardUX]

But to answer your other question, I use Adobe suite because I do lots of things other than ui/ux. I edit photos, videos, design logos, etc etc. :)

Does Figma have something like this?
