Sketch 2.2.4 – Vector drawing application

Sketch is a innovative and fresh look at vector drawing for the Mac. Its intentionally minimalist design is based upon a drawing space of unlimited size and layers, free of palettes, panels, menus, windows, and controls. Though simple to use, it offers powerful vector drawing and text tools like perfect Boolean operations, Symbols and powerful Rulers, Guides and Grids.

Greatly improves the speed of resizing layers and groups
Fixes a color crasher when picking non-standard colors
Copy-pasting objects between Artboards should be more predictable now
When copy-pasting bitmaps with rectangular marquee, colours no longer change
Fixes a bug where resizing a group after moving its contents could have it jump back to its original position
Fixes a bug where the layer list wouldn't update after dragging in an image from the desktop if you were in the slice tool
Fixes a bug where duplicating pages in the Pages sheet would not refresh the canvas properly
Fixes a bug where some text layers could appear cut off or appear to move slightly on export
Layer selection is now preserved when switching back and forth between pages
When 'Zoom on Selection' is turned on, it now also zooms in/out on bitmap's selections properly
Pressing CMD+D inside the bitmap tool now duplicates the selected area instead of the entire layer
Right-click 'delete' on a slice in the layer list now works as it should
When Vectorizing a stroke with a gradient, we now also transfer the gradient over
Duplicating or Copy-pasting now has Sketch make sure that the slice name isn't in use already
Undoing a layer insert will no longer put a thick grey band on the screen
Better slice and artboard snapping at different zoom levels
Flattened layers no longer appear at the top of the layer list
"Center Selection" is now disabled when there's no layer selected
Fixes pasting via layer list and in canvas; layers no longer appear in semi-random places

Fixes a bug where blended layers in artboards wouldn't show up correctly
When selecting objects, Sketch now properly shows their combined width/height in the toolbar again
Resizing a group after transforming its contents no longer makes the layers jump unexpectedly
Zooming out no longer centers on the artboard. This was particularly annoying with larger artboards
