So many of these features seem wildly useful. But honestly, I'm probably most excited about exports respecting Sketch artboard order. The amount of times I've had to sit there and reorder 40 new screens...
Well done!
This right here ☝
Duplicating art boards, inconsistent values and random crashes. I wish you've ran a proper QA on the new version. And tbh, my boss doesn't cares that I like zeplin or not. He just wants the stuff done without hearing devs blaming designers of their blockers caused by their funky tools.
Too expensive
No, it's not.
Clearly someone doesn't value their time
Or maybe someone has an alternative choice which is far cheaper.
We’ve just released Zeplin 2.0, so excited! New features include components, renaming assets, full-size thumbnails in Dashboard.
You can now export symbols from Sketch (the same way you would export an artboard) and they will be listed under the new Components tab of the project Styleguide. When you click a layer that’s inside a component you’ll quickly see the component name and a link that will take you to it.
Please add sub-sections to sections!
Oh god yes!
Can't want to test this tomorrow! Quick question for now:
We currently have situations where the same component is used on two different screens, but in different forms because we always adjust the component's content through overrides.
How is this situation treated inside Zeplin now? Do we end up having two different components in the project, having the same name but having the two variations of content?
Hey Codin! I believe that depends on the way the symbol is setup. Do you mind sharing an example of this symbol and the different forms you use it in to support@zeplin.io? I’d love to take a look at it!
Great work, guys! Posted on PH, if you don't mind https://www.producthunt.com/posts/zeplin-2-0
If you rename an artboard within Sketch and sync it with Zeplin, Zeplin creates a duplicated component instead of updating the existing one. Thats a nightmare and a real deal breaker for our company!
I'm confused... where do you actually download 2.0?
Are you absolutely sure?
Maybe "It's an ugly and poor UX crap" - and that's why you can't find where to download.

Never forget.
Colour reordering! YESSS!
Not sure why am I so happy about this, but I am. Thanks Zeplin!
I often turn my screens into components so that I can design for multiple screen sizes at the same time (working on mobile app targeting low-end-markets with small screens). Another use case is to illustrate an overlay on top of another screen.
With this update, all my screens will end up in the components section unless I make new copies for the sole purpose to export to Zeplin :(
Anyone else experiences this? Any ideas on how to improve my workflow?
This is an amazing update. Definitely going to help my design workflow hugely. Big applause to the Zeplin team!
