How to Use Auto-Animate for Prototypes in Adobe XD | Adobe Creative Cloud

Draw paths to animate:

2. Click the artboard name, then use alt (or option) + drag on your keyboard to duplicate the original artboard.

Tip: To animate objects in Adobe XD, the layers must have the same name. Duplicating an artboard also duplicates the layer names.

3. Double-click one of the wavy lines to convert it to a path. Drag each point to change the shape of the path. Repeat for each of the three wavy lines.
4. Duplicate the updated artboard and change the path of the wavy lines on the newest artboard. You should have a total of 3 artboards now.

Animate the paths:

1. Go to Prototype mode and click on the name of the 1st artboard to select it.
2. Drag a wire from the blue arrow to the 2nd artboard and choose the following settings:

- Trigger = Time
- Delay = 0s
- Action = Auto-Animate

3. Drag a wire from the 2nd artboard to the 3rd artboard. XD remembers the previous settings so you don’t have to change anything.
4. Drag a wire from the 3rd artboard back to the 1st to create a looping animation.
5. Choose Desktop Preview, Cmd+return or Ctrl+enter, to test your prototype.

That's it!

nice and easy, it's like sketch + principle in one place

THis is like the best song I've heard!

What happened to this Trigger: Time feature?! I have the most recent updated version and it seems. The way you upload to the app is totally different from all the tutorials and there are missing features!

[yuyutalks]

I want to animate (or transition objects) on the same art board. What do i do?

[cssmonkey]

You guys removed the TIME Trigger function? Its no longer there, I can only see TAP > DRAG > KEY & GAMEPAD > VOICE.

It says you have a delay of 0s yet mine won't go below 0.2s even if i try to input 0. Am I missing something? My animation is choppy instead of smooth.

I still did not understand how the prototype went into that phone? How do I make animated mockups? Been looking for this for an hour now.
