What’s new

• Styling for Artboards You can now apply a range of style properties to your Artboards (fills, shadows, rounded corners, etc.), create Layer Styles, and set your own default style for them. You can also choose whether or not Artboards clip their content from the Inspector. Artboards no longer include shadows by default, giving your Canvas a cleaner look.
• An even better Command Bar We’ve added new ways to search, browse and insert Symbols (⌃ Y), Text Styles (⌃ T) and Artboard Templates (⌃ A) from the Command Bar. Each of these options has its own dedicated shortcut to make things even quicker. You can also swap Symbols, Artboards and Text Styles using ⌃ ⌘ R if you have one selected. Finally, you can search, insert and swap Layer Styles and Color Variables from the Command Bar, too.

You’ll see rich previews for each component type, along with full keyboard navigation. There are also shortcuts to navigate in and out of groups in your Libraries.

• Markdown support in Symbol overrides We now support basic Markdown-like syntax in Symbol overrides. You can use this syntax to apply *bold*, _italic_, and [underline] formatting to any text overrides.
• More flexible Text Styles You can now exclude alignment and text color from Text Styles, which can reduce the number of styles you need to create in your Libraries. You’ll find options to exclude these properties both in the Components view, and in the More menu under the Text Style selector in the Inspector.
• A better Comments overview The Comments toolbar item now includes a detachable panel, showing comments, authors and replies. Aside from giving you a quick way to see all the comments in a document, it includes a way to filter and focus in on unread comments, as well as an unread count in the toolbar item itself.
