blended.io: Product Innovation & Engineering

@Scrumdotorg @jeffsutherland @andreehuk Why make a distinction between "product backlog" (a) and "sprint backlog" (b) but then make no distinction between the items when in either a or b. Why not apply the same logic, for easier understanding!? Their granularity is certainly not the same, either. #scrum #agile

@blendedio @jeffsutherland @andreehuk You pull Product Backlog Items into the Sprint Backlog to work on them, however they are still PBIs and remain PBIs. You work on PBIs, etc.

@andreiganci @dantuhoarca from our designer: when the layer panel is open and switching between component states, the layers always show as collapsed. that's such a pain apparently as the designer would need to click/click/click to open up everything again

@blendedio @dantuhoarca

@andreiganci why do text fields do not have an 'ellipsis' feature? #xd #css

@andreiganci @dantuhoarca We were just told that after deleting other missing components, those that were not deletable beforehand, can now be deleted. Seems like #bug in #xd.

@andreiganci @dantuhoarca also, why is it not possible to delete a component for which the link is broken? #xd

@andreiganci @dantuhoarca something else: we understand that it takes time/resources to figure whether a component is located somewhere on the canvas, though, why does the context menu say "Highlight on canvas" if there is no duplicate on the canvas? Why say so directly.

@andreiganci @dantuhoarca Stacks also don't stay right-aligned, even if set within responsive resize. e.g.: 3 buttons in a stack (A-C), right-aligned. Designer hides button C, stack does stay right-aligned, button C just disappears. #xd #wip #prototyping #ui #design

@tuhoojabotti @Atlassian @github @gitlab There seems to be tons of legacy markup everywhere + the behaviour of text fields is different across the entire web application, which is such a pain. It's been like that for years. #bad #ux #veryMuchIndeed #fail #atlassian

@blendedio @Atlassian @github @gitlab AFAIK that's the legacy markup, now they only have a wysiwyg editor. Which is arguably even worse.

@AdobeCare #Mac

@blendedio Hi there, sorry to hear about your experience, that's certainly not what we're striving for. If you are willing, would love to know the OS platform you're on, and it'd be really helpful if you can share a short video capturing the behavior over a PM? Hope it helps. Thanks! ^HV twitter.com/messages/compo…

Feedback from a few weeks of using @AdobeXD: - Very promising - Feels more lightweight in terms of performance than @sketch - A handful of bugs still show up frequently We are looking forward to what's coming next! #uidesign #ui #visualdesign

@AdobeCare Update on the latest versions: Working with cloud files is a real pain. Having 2 files open, one being a Design System, copying + pasting components is so slow. When switching it takes ~10s for XD to react. So slow. #design #pain #designtools

@blendedio Hi there, sorry for the delay in response. We understand the restrictions of this situation, would it be possible for you to create a sample file and share it with us? We would also appreciate if you could help us with the steps to reproduce the issue. Thanks. ^Atul

@AdobeXD @sketch - Performance isn't great with #XD cloud files on 2017 Macbook Pros. We face the issue that working in bigger files, switching between them makes #XD freeze for 5-10s. Not sure why that is but could be due to saving aaaaall the time to the cloud. #nervewrecking

@andreehuk @andreiganci @GalleKyle @AdobeXD @arunkaza Why does #xd not support vertical-alignment:middle in text fields?

@andreehuk @andreiganci @GalleKyle @AdobeXD @arunkaza Something else from the team: When a component gets copied from artboard A (768) to artboard B (1366), why not change the size automatically? #makingXDgreater #ui #ixd #design

@andreiganci @andreehuk @GalleKyle @AdobeXD @arunkaza Some more from the team: Why we do manually need to increase the height of artboards? Why not make it happen automatically when the content overlaps below? Thank you. #makingXDbetter #UI #IXD

@andreehuk @blendedio @GalleKyle @AdobeXD @arunkaza

@andreiganci @GalleKyle @AdobeXD …and table-like structures for repeaters, e.g. see how @axurerp does it; or a native integration with Google Sheets or @airtable (properly done)

@andreiganci @GalleKyle @AdobeXD by the way, awesome to have would be simple excel-like formulas in e.g. text fields #xd #onFire #ui #process #dry

...and the same goes for #user #experience #design, very strongly by the way. #ux

@GalleKyle @AdobeXD We cannot share the file though.

@GalleKyle @AdobeXD From the team: XD bug (supposed to snap to the grid)
