Sketch 78 is here! With this release, we’ve got some neat UX improvements to make your life easier. We‘ve fine-tuned the Documents window — now called Workspace window — to include a new List view and an improved Recents view to help you find the documents you need faster. Plus, with sharing badges, you can see extra information about your documents, and stay on top of what your team is working on.

Elsewhere, we’ve made it easier to navigate layers and work with deep group hierarchies. For example, you can now use the Enter and Tab keys to move through the layer hierarchy across multiple selected groups. You can also navigate layers with Tab and ⇧Tab, even if you have nothing selected.

And, as always, we’ve squashed some pesky bugs and improved performance based on your feedback.

Version 77 of the Mac app is out now. With this update, we’ve made it faster to drill down into groups in your documents. Now, after you’ve double-clicked the first group on the Canvas, quickly following up with single clicks will dive down deeper.

Elsewhere, you’ll find new Apple device presets in the Artboard selector. And did you know you can use math in most of Sketch’s text fields? Well, we’ve now added support for exponents (aka powers) with the ^ sign.

We also heard you loud and clear when it came to the export bar that appears at the bottom of the Canvas when you export a file. Now, the bar will automatically disappear after 10 seconds, and we’ll never show more than one at a time — so you can focus on the work on your Canvas.

And, as always, we’ve squashed some pesky bugs and improved performance based on your feedback. We hope you enjoy the update!

Version 75 of the Mac app is out now. With this update, we’ve added a new Workspace switcher to the Documents window. Now you can use a drop-down menu to switch to any other Workspace you’re a member of Guest of, and you’ll only see that Workspace’s documents and Projects.

The latest release also makes it easier to share prototypes from the Mac app for any document that lives in your Workspace. It’s as simple as clicking the Share button in the toolbar while you’re testing a prototype from the Mac app.

Elsewhere, there’s a new shortcut to quickly access all your Document Settings in one place — just hit ⌘⇧, — as well as an option to lock or unlock the ratio of Slice layers from the Inspector, and some other small improvements. And, as always, we’ve squashed some pesky bugs and improved performance based on your feedback.
