We’re continuing to improve on our experimental feature - Smart Layout in groups. Finally, you can quickly rename another selection of layers using the last renaming pattern you used via Edit > Rename with Last Format (⌥⇧⌘R). You can also use Edit > Rename All (⌥⌘R) to rename all the layers on your current page, with the option to filter for specific layers to rename. Multi-Layer Renaming You can now select multiple layers and use Edit > Rename (⌘R) to rename your entire selection, with support for modifier tokens and optional matching of portions of the layers’ names.
You can also change the default save location and dialog under the General tab in Sketch’s Settings. You can still save locally to your Mac via the “Save to Your Mac” button in the Save dialog, or via File > Save to Your Mac. This is now the default way to save in Sketch.
Redesigned Save Dialog We’ve completely redesigned the Save dialog for Workspace documents, with a better experience for organizing documents and full support for the new Collections feature. You can create a new Collection from the new save dialog, and organize existing documents and Collections in the Workspace window. Ever found the number of Projects in your Workspace a little unmanageable? Having trouble sorting through loads of documents in a Project? Collections can help. With Collections, you can group documents inside of Projects in just about any way that suits you and your collaborators. Collections We heard your requests for another level of organization inside your Workspace, and with this release we’re introducing just that.
We’ve listed all the individual changes and improvements below, but it should feel easier and more predictable to select layers by clicking on their visible parts and move layers by dragging within their selection box.
Selection Improvements For this release, we’ve spent some time focusing on selection - and improving all the little interactions that might bug you or feel inconsistent.
