    Reorder layers in a Smart Distribute selection

    If you’ve selected multiple layers with even spacing between them, you can grab and drag the center of one of those layers to change its position within that selection. The surrounding layers will reorder themselves and snap into place to make way for the one you’re moving. The best part is, it even works with Artboards, so you can keep your documents looking neat and tidy.

    Better Boolean Operations

    We’ve done a lot of work to improve the way we handle Boolean Operations. If you’ve run into any Boolean Ops bugs or odd behaviours in the past, there’s a good chance we’ve fixed it here.

    Improvements (6)

    • If you use the arrow keys on your keyboard with the Rotate tool to adjust a layer, we’ll now hide the selection handles and show the right values in the Inspector.
    • Sometimes it’s difficult to distinguish between solid and gradient presets in the Color Popover, so we’ve given them their own headings to make it easier to find what you need.
    • You can now paste rich text from the Clipboard directly into the Canvas by choosing Paste as Rich Text in the Edit menu. Previously, we only enabled this in text editing mode, but now it’s always there.
    • We’ve changed a few arrangement shortcuts. Send Backward is now ⌘ [ and Bring Forward is ⌘ ]. Send to Back is now ⌘ ⌥ [ and Bring to Front is ⌘ ⌥ ]. If you’d like to use the old shortcut or something totally different, you can create custom keyboard shortcuts in System Preferences.
    • We’ve made it easier to work with very large grids. Scrolling around them, moving them and changing colors should all feel faster and smoother.
    • You can now set a default layer style from the Layer menu in vector editing mode if you’ve selected a single path or shape group.

    Fixes (14)

    • Fixed a bug where you might see the wrong cursor if you hover over Inspector labels with your language set as Chinese.
    • Fixed a bug where the Layer List would scroll to the top if you hit Undo in a document with a long list of layers.
    • Fixed a bug where Smart Distribute handles could look squashed if you launched Sketch on a Retina display then moved the document to a non-Retina display.
    • Fixed a bug where you wouldn’t see a proper preview of your work in Quick Look in the Finder.
    • Fixed a bug where where you couldn’t insert an image by selecting one from your Photos Library in the Finder sheet. This might mean we’ll ask for permission to access your photos if you haven’t granted it already.
    • Fixed a crash that could occur if you tried to apply an Outer Border to certain paths.
    • Fixed a bug where an Artboard might lose its preset if you converted it into a Symbol.
    • Fixed a bug where a landscape Artboard might unexpectedly switch to portrait if you held shift and dragged to resize it.
    • Fixed a bug where images might not be properly included as part of a group if that image overlapped with a nearby Artboard.
    • Fixed a bug where inserting a line while holding shift wouldn’t always respect pixel rounding.
    • Fixed a crash that could occur when you try to print or adjust your print settings.
    • Fixed a bug where pressing Control and Option keys at the same time wouldn’t correctly show the distance between a text layer’s baseline and another text layer’s cap height.
    • Fixed a bug where a Cloud Library update would fail because of an incorrect version/compatibility number. We’ll also be clearer in telling you when a Library is incompatible.
    • Fixed a bug where you couldn’t set any border position other than inner as part of a default layer style.

    Edit text overrides on the Canvas

    We’ve made it easier to work with text overrides by adding the option to edit them directly on the Canvas. Simply double-click on text in any Symbol instance and start typing. Stay on the Canvas, stay in the moment and speed up your workflow.

    Smart Distribute Upgrades

    You can now use Smart Distribute to control the spacing in grids. You can easily adjust the vertical spacing between rows of layers, as well as the horizontal spacing between each layer in a row. We’ve also introduced a new ‘Tidy’ button to the Inspector. It quickly aligns a selection of multiple layers into a neat grid, making it even easier to create and manage complex layouts.

    Save your documents to Sketch Cloud

    There’s a new option to save documents to Sketch Cloud by default in Preferences. If you choose this, you’ll still have the option to save local documents via a separate menu item and shortcut. You’ll also be able see and open your Cloud documents from the Welcome Window.

    Improvements (7)

    • Say hello to some new faces in our Data plugin. There are 102 new people to include in your designs.
    • You can now choose whether a text layer will auto resize horizontally or vertically to fit its content right from the Inspector.
    • We’ve moved a few things around in Preferences to clean up the General tab. Nothing’s missing, it just has a new home in one of the other tabs now.
    • We’ve added a new Select All in Artboard command to the Edit menu so you can quickly grab all of the layers on any Artboard you’ve selected. We’ve also given the different Select All commands their own sub-menu.
    • Measurements between layers should look a little cleaner when you zoom out. We’re removing the least relevant ones if they overlap to keep things easy to read.
    • Menus in the Inspector are now a little wider, so if you’ve got Symbol with long names, it should be easier to pick the one you want.
    • Along with the big upgrades, we’ve given Smart Distribute a boost with three handy improvements. It now works with vertical lines, supports negative spacing (so layers can overlap), and using it on layers inside a group is now as simple as clicking on the group itself.

    Known Issues (1)

    • macOS Auto Save may not behave as expected and you won’t be able to access document versions via the Revert To menu. We’re currently working on a fix for this.

    Say hello to Smart Distribute

    We’re introducing a whole new range of tools to make working with multiple layers quicker and easier, starting with Smart Distribute. Select a column or row of layers, grab any of the handles that appear between them, then drag to adjust their spacing evenly. For now, Smart Distribute only works in one direction at a time but there’s plenty more to come.
