“Get an overview of how Smart Layout can supercharge your Symbols and turn them into reusable, responsive components that resize to fit their content.”

“Smart Layout in Sketch 58 is damn powerful, there is a lot you can do with it. In this article I’d like to show you how to set up Smart Layout for your Navigation & Dropdown Menu design.”

This is the most important feature since Symbol Overrides. Finally, you can make Symbols that behave in the same way as its final implementation — everything thanks to Smart Layout. In this story…

- ProtoPie 4: Crazy easy interactive prototypes

- Torch AR for iOS: build AR experiences directly on your iPad or iPhone - no coding skills required.

I’ll post more details about the location soon and might vary depending on interest.

Sets the size of Symbols, Instances, Text Layers, Artboards or Groups to the size of their contents:

👉 Artboards & Master Symbols

👉 Symbol Instances
👉 Groups

👉 Text Layers

✨ For Text Layers it resizes the text box to the correct height based on the line-height value.

📐 Applied to Symbol Instances it resets them to their original size (the Master Symbol’s size).

📂 For Groups it fixes an issue 🤕 where folders don’t match the size or position of their contents!

Enjoy!

Should what a founder wants to build take priority over what the customers want? Well, for Pieter Omvlee, CEO of Sketch, it was really one and the same. Sketch was created to solve a real problem he and his co-founder were experiencing. While the company has grown in response to its users' high demand, they have been able to stick to their original goal - solve their own problem by creating a better product. In this episode, you’ll learn how the best products are built and how to have a growth reluctant mindset, which may sound counterintuitive. Yet, this mentality could be the reason Sketch has found itself growing rapidly with a community of evangelists (Innovatemap being one of them).
