What's New
RELEASED 11 FEBRUARY, 2022:
Bug Fixes • This release includes a handful of bug fixes. If you sent in feedback about any of these — thank you!
What’s fixed
• Fixes a bug that wouldn‘t respect your previous document‘s window size when creating a new document or opening your document again.
• Fixes a bug that could cause masked layers to display incorrectly if you were using a layer with opaque outside borders as a mask.
RELEASED 09 FEBRUARY, 2022:
Bug Fixes • This release focuses on fixing a number of crashes and bugs. Thanks for all your reports and feedback!
What’s fixed
• Fixes a bug where custom Artboard size presets wouldn‘t appear.
• We’ve fixed a bug that could cause the Mac app to crash when clicking on a filtered layer type in the Layer’s List search bar.
RELEASED 08 FEBRUARY, 2022:
Corner Controls and Styles • You can now adjust the corner radius of rectangles on the Canvas: drag a corner handle to control all corners with the same size, hold ⌘ to control a single corner, or ⌥ to control all corners at once. We’ve also added four individual input fields in the Inspector for each corner in the rectangle. Finally, we’ve introduced new Corner Styles: in addition to Rounded and Smooth, you can now use the Angled, Inside Square, and Inside Arc styles.
What’s improved
• You can now style corners on triangles, stars, polygons and closed paths directly from the Corners panel in the Inspector. These shapes support our brand new Corner Styles too — try them out!
• We’ve given the segmented controls in the Inspector a makeover. They’re no longer colored and instead match the appearance of buttons, making them less distracting.
• You can now set Artboards as click targets in a prototype. This way, you don‘t have to add hotspot layers anymore when you just want to show a simple flow or presentation.
• When creating exportable layers or slices with prefixes, we now give you more control over the prefix’s placement in the file name if the layer name contains a slash (/). With the new Primary Prefix option, the prefix will appear in front of the full path instead of the last path component only.
• In the Recent documents view in the Workspace window you can now search a document by the author of the latest version. Of course, you can still search a document by its title.
What’s changed
• Version 83 is the final Mac app release to support macOS Catalina (10.15.0). When we release version 84, the minimum system requirements will change to 11.0 (Big Sur).
You can download previous versions of the Mac app (with support for older operating systems) from our updates page.
What’s fixed
• Fixes a crash that could occur when leaving vector editing mode after unhiding the Inspector.
• Fixes a bug where we would remind you to embed fonts when saving a local document in some cases.
• Fixes a bug where you wouldn‘t be able to perform a Union operation on adjacent, but not intersecting, shapes.
• When adding a prototype link on the Canvas, we‘ll now show you target icons next to your Artboard so it‘s easier to link to the previous Artboard or to another page.
• Fixes an issue where we wouldn‘t give you the option to embed fonts when saving a Workspace document via the Collaboration toolbar item.
• Fixes a bug where saving a Workspace document you had opened for the first time would prompt you to embed fonts even if all fonts were already embedded.
• Fixes a bug that could ignore Text on Path when performing boolean operations.
• Fixes a bug where you couldn‘t Command-click to select masked layers.
• Fixes a bug where the appearance of shadows with non-zero spread values on lines wouldn’t match the line’s end cap type.
• Fixes a bug that could cause a rotated layer using a background blur to render the blur in a washed out way.
• Fixes a bug that could display the Style section in the Inspector incorrectly if editing a vector with the Inspector hidden.
• We’ve matched the miter limit for outside and inside borders to that which center borders use. This way you’ll see more predictable results when working with shapes or text with pointy edges.
• Fixes a bug that wouldn‘t respect the Fix Size setting when using Smart Layout.
• When opening or creating a document, we’ll now place the Mac app window in the center of your screen.
• Fixes a bug where angular gradient fills wouldn‘t be included when exporting to SVG.
• We’ve improved rendering accuracy for shape layers used as a mask with center or inside borders so that you always see the right opacity.
• Fixes a bug where we would not show the distance value for the spacing between selected layers in the Inspector if the selection included a line with another layer that was positioned along the same axis as the line.
• Fixes a bug that could cause the tabs in Preferences to show unexpected window sizes.
• Fixes a bug that wouldn‘t let you delete Components in the Components View when filtered by a search term.
