I made a quick finger drawn version of Helvetica (Handvetica ;) for that purpose. If you want it, get it here: http://2ttf.com/MUFzWAw2
Principle also gained hovers recently.
The precursor to Sketch was called DrawIt, you can actually still download it from some sites, and it still runs on El Capitan. Only problem is you won't find a serial number any more. :\
We use https://zeplin.io to translate designs to engineering with great success. It publishes Sketch files and specs via mac app or web.
Yes. Thanks, that's helpful!
The Sketch constraints plug-in could come in handy here: https://github.com/bouchenoiremarc/Sketch-Constraintshttps://vimeo.com/140962822
Slightly related, I'd love to be able to escape a layer when selecting items inside it. Currently tab and shift-tab cycle through the items inside layers, but breaking out of the layer always requires the mouse. What is a conscious decision to limit that behavior? And if so, could you share why you decided to do this? Thanks.
I don't think that feature exists (yet?). I use a mix of text shared styles to make up for this. It's definitely more work, because you have to assign fills and strokes in different sizes and change all of them if you want to swap colors document wide, but at least you can can get there part of the way.
Q: I am really itching to know why you guys decided to sort artboards in chronological order in the layer palette?
(Thanks for everything you do!)

Not sure where you are but in the us you can get unlimited data with personal hotspot on T-Mobile for two lines for $99 flat. I regularly burn 12 gb mobile data without being slowed down.
