    Export Presets

    You can now define Export presets, containing multiple scales and filetypes to be applied to slices and exportable layers with a single click.

    Touch Bar Support

    Sketch supports Touch Bar on the new MacBook Pro – allowing you to quickly access tools and features straight from the keyboard.

    Enhancements (17)

    • The maximum zoom level has been increased four times to 25600% to allow more precise pixel work
    • During vector editing, clicking the first point will now close the path
    • Slice layers can now be hidden along with any other layer type
    • Sub-paths can now be hidden and are thereby excluded from boolean operations
    • Multiple corner radii for rounded rectangles should now be specified using the semi-colon separator, not the backslash. Because of this, the corner radius text field now supports math functions as well
    • You can now select multiple Pages at the same time to delete them
    • We’ve updated our About window with a brand new look
    • The Flip controls now show an active state when a layer has been flipped horizontally or vertically
    • The Save as Template dialog now pre-fills with the document’s name
    • Holding the Option key in the vector editor no longer hides all points
    • When dragging a vector handle control point, you can now hold Shift to lock it to the direction of the opposite control point
    • A path consisting of only two points will add points to the start of the line when the first point is selected
    • The menu for swapping Symbol instances now respects the same grouping and sub-menus that appear under Insert > Symbol
    • Reduces memory usage while using Mirror
    • The File > New From Template menu has been restored
    • Improves performance when combining many non-overlapping shapes
    • Improves performance when editing Symbol instances in large documents with many (nested) Symbols

    • Fixes a performance bug where the Layer List could be refreshed too many times after a selection changed
    • Symbol instances are now properly exported at the right size in SVG
    • Fixes a bug where Command-dragging a handle control point would hide the vector handles too

    • Fixes a few scaling and rotation bugs when importing an SVG
    • Fixes a number of SVG importing bugs
    • Fixes a bug where a hidden or locked layer would break the layer selection cycle with the Tab key
    • Fixes a bug where some SVG shapes would be imported with black fills
    • Fixes a bug where Artboards could be drawn with reduced opacity inherited from a certain default style
