Sketch 72

What's new in this version:

New:
- Rendering and performance improvements: This release includes a whole host of rendering and performance improvements. Lots of them are subtle, but they all add up to a better experience. You’ll notice things feel more responsive when you move Symbols and Nested Symbols around the canvas, as well as during exports and saving documents to your Workspace.
- Data improvements: We’ve added a new option to the Data menu to choose whether data you insert is picked at random or not. If you uncheck this Insert Data at Random option, Data you insert will follow the order in its source file. We’ve also added support for nested data within Linked Data (JSON) sources. Nested data from a Linked Data source will appear inside a group when you add it to your canvas.

Improved:
- You’ll now see image shadows at all zoom levels, where previously they’d disappear as you zoomed in close
- We heard from a few of you who really missed the dedicated zoom controls in the Big Sur toolbar, so we’ve brought them back! You’ll be able to add them by Control-clicking on your toolbar and choosing Customize Toolbar….
- We’ve added an @3x option for flattening bitmaps to the Layer preferences panel
- Fixes a bug where a layer with a blur with a 0.5 radius would appear unblurred
- We’ve added a new set of shortcuts for aligning layers. ⌃⌘ and your arrow keys now align layers left, right, top or bottom. ⌃⌘V or ⌃⌘H align layers vertically or horizontally. Add the ⌥ modifier to any of those shortcuts to align layers within an Artboard.

Changed:
- We’ve given the Assistants UI and layout a fresh lick of paint for Big Sur
- Hey night owls, we’ve made a few tweaks to some colors in dark mode. Nothing major, but subtle things that add up to a more pleasant experience. Enjoy!
- We’ve made some changes to how we generate outside borders which improves things for complex shapes
- We’ve tweaked the copy in our notifications to make it clearer when Library and Component updates are available
- We’ve increased the size of Artboard names on the Canvas so they should be easier to read from a distance now

Fixed:
- This release fixes a number of bugs that caused issues with Component and Library updates. This includes seeing a Component/Library update notification when there were none available, not seeing a notification when there were updates available, and being unable to update Components/Libraries. Thanks for all your reports and we’re sorry for the impact that this has had on your workflows!
