Unexpected UI behaviour of export all

Web Export
1

some strange UI related things that confused me a lot when starting to use this plugin:

-“Export Multiple” does not work when no artboard is selected
-“Export Multiple” button opens a window with the name “Export All”
-the “Export All” window still has the artboard selection in the top right corner. the export settings depend on the artboard, although i am exporting all (i would expect per-file settings, not per-artboard).

  • the export folder is not remembered after closing the programm. when clicking the folder icon, i have to navigate one folder up, then enter it again before i can click “select folder”
    -“export All” still names the html after the currently selected artboard, i was expecting it to be the file name.
  • sometimes the formatting is messed up when exporting, i will try to find the cause and make a example file.

overall, still a very useful plugin!

using webexport 2.7.1
xd 21.0.12
windows 10

Thank you! More improvements are coming in version 3.0.2.

Export Multiple Artboards has been renamed to Export All Artboards in version 3.0.2. There may be a Export Selected Artboards or some combination in the future.

The original version only exported a single artboard. Multiple artboards was added later. It might be possible to have a single project setting. I can look into it.

The folder not being remembered is a limitation of the environment. It has been noted that people would like persistent file references. For now, you’ll have to select the export folder each session.

Examples are helpful!
