Not just a milestone—but a massive update that improves every part of Sketch's performance & experience. If you're designing, you owe it to yourself to check all the good stuff and great things we added and improved since the last time you tried Sketch.
Scrolling areas in prototypes You can now make any group of layers scrollable vertically or horizontally (or both) in prototypes. You’ll find the Make Scrollable option under the Prototype tab in the Inspector when you select a an existing group or multiple layers (we’ll even group those for you).
Hover, press and toggle effects in prototypes You can now show or hide layers on hover or press, as well as toggle a layer or overlay’s visibility on click, in prototypes. You can also trigger Overlays on hover or press. You’ll find all these options under the Prototype tab in the Inspector when you select a layer or Hotspot.
Command Bar Press ⌘K in any document to quickly access almost any action you’d find in the menu bar or activate with a shortcut — including those from your favorite plugins. Over time, the Command Bar will learn your preferences and bring your most-used actions to the top of the results.
Discover in the Mac app You’ll find a new Discover tab in the Workspace window, giving you instant access to our latest product news, guides, tutorials and more.
Permissions Groups Admins on a Business Plan can create groups of Workspace Members, making it far easier (and quicker) to manage who can access projects and documents.
Archive projects Admins on a Business Plan can archive projects in their Workspace that are no longer active, making it easier to find and focus on what’s in play.
Pin documents and projects You can pin Workspace documents in the All Documents view and projects in the sidebar. Pinned documents and projects are private and personal — so you can use them in a way that makes sense to you.
Canvas Minimap We’ve added a handy Minimap to make it easier to find your way around a large Canvas. Whenever you have layers outside your current view, the Minimap will appear in the bottom-right corner. You can click on the Minimap or drag the highlighted section to navigate around the Canvas, or hide it altogether by pressing ⌃M.
Bad business decision to vastly limit the market by having it available on few platforms and no free teer. I hope it's not reflective of the narrow talent capabilities.
Love that you keep shipping amassing shit at an equally amazing cadence. Also can never get over just how much better the design of Sketch itself is than competition. Figma looks like an unfinished wireframe to my eyes whereas Sketch is a beautiful gem. 💎😍
This Sketch update truly seems like a game-changer for designers. The addition of scrollable areas in prototypes, hover effects, and the Command Bar for quick access to actions are notable improvements. The Permissions Groups feature and Canvas Minimap also offer practical enhancements for project management. Worth considering for optimizing design workflows. Upvoted.
On another note, we're launching Shockwave, a social media marketing platform on Saturday! Our mission is to help brands and creators significantly increase audience engagement through gamification mechanics and social farming.
We'd love for you to join us by clicking 'notify me' on our coming soon page. Infinite thanks to everyone who will do it.
Ever since I became a product designer, I've been using Sketch, and it's been almost 7 years now. I'm honored to have been part of the growth journey of such a great design tool. Congratulations on the release of v100—a milestone in design tools! These past years, coincidentally, I've also been working on a design tool for the AI era, and I look forward to exchanging ideas with you!
By the way, a little side note: I'm thrilled to see the many enhancements you've made in the advanced prototype features in this version. I remember when I used Sketch for prototype design and had to rely on other specialized tools for some effects and transitions. It seems the new features can seamlessly solve these issues. I'm happy for your release!
Sketch is a great program and this only makes it better. This is why the CI HUB Connector is integrated into it.
The whole Sketch team can be proud of this.
Congratulations on the launch! 🎉
Wish I had known that Sketch had all of this, I would've definitely given it a go to make the prototype of my product!
It looks really great!
It is nice to see that Sketch is still in the game. Since the last changes on Figma with Dev mode, progress is in design and development I can say interrupted. Now if you want a proper Inspect mode it cost additional fees. I hope Sketch will continue upgrading its features so we can have good alternatives to Figma. Web UI looks fantastic. ⭐️
The web app UI will get Sketch a lot more new users.
I wonder if the next step will be to compete with Figma!
Just hit that upvote button. The promise of smoother prototyping and a shiny new web app caught my eye sounds like you folks have been busy bees.
but how's the learning curve on the new updates for someone who hasn't opened Sketch in a hot minute?
Props for the hustle!
