Posted to States— Sketch Plugin. Just like layer comps for Sketch., Jun 27, 2016 Posted to Want to Prototype in Sketch? Craft has got your back, in reply to Kris Kim , Jun 01, 2016 I experienced the same. Have never experienced Sketch this slow before :( thinking about reverting back to the old version of Craft. It's not always problem free being an early adopter
Posted to Sketch 3.8, in reply to Xavier Bertels , May 19, 2016 I had hopes for in-context symbol editing. Seems like we'll have to wait for Sketch 4.
Posted to Sketch 3.8, in reply to Sander Visser , May 19, 2016 +1 to high CPU & not possible to scroll new in browser new sketch mirror. I'd love a fully working Sketch Mirror in the browser, where you could get a true in-browser experience of your designs.

Posted to Will Bohemian release a bug free version of Sketch before the community runs out of goodwill?, Nov 02, 2015 Sketch has been more and more unstable since 3.0 imo. Zooming in and out on boards with a lot of bitmaps is horrible, even on a 16gb ram MPBretina. Does anyone know what the most stable version was? I want to go back :(
Posted to Disappointing Mailbox update. Looking for new Mail client!, in reply to Tom Hare , Aug 20, 2015 second that. anyone know what happened to the sparrow guys? still working at gmail?
Posted to Why all the hate against Open Sans?, Jun 01, 2015 Probably because it's used a lot, as it's one of the more clean looking sans serif fonts on Google Fonts. Popular stuff tends to be hated on over time, when it gets overused. Then the hipsters find new cool stuff, and start hating the previously cool stuff.
Posted to Colour - Scroll around and find your perfect colour, in reply to Devin Hunt , May 05, 2015 can you explain the color theory behind the tool? can't find any info.
