Sketch 53 is now live! Major improvements in symbol overrides managements.

#Sketch #Releases #Productivity

Sketch 53 has just been released! The productivity improvements are in the way overrides are now managed.

  • Override Management
  • You can now manage which overridable properties appear directly in the Symbol’s master.

  • Overrides
  • Overrides in Symbols can now be selected via the Layer List, and in the Canvas when the Symbol instance is selected.

Plus tons on other performance improvements. Some of my faves below:
  • Added the ability to navigate directly to a nested Symbol’s master from the Inspector
  • Color presets added to Document Colors are now included in Libraries
  • Grid and Layout visibility can now be toggled for all selected Artboards
  • Support has been included to view color values in HSL
  • Solid color presets are now visible when viewing the gradient picker
