Learn Sketch shortcuts interactively
- skilled 7y agoAnother site I recommend is: https://shortcuts.design/ https://shortcuts.design/
- RoboTeddy 7y agoI want apps to progressively train me in their shortcuts. An app could track which actions I take manually, in order to learn which shortcuts are most valuable to teach me. Immediately after I manually take a frequent action, it could inform me of the shortcut. Perhaps I can then even undo the action and redo it using the shortcut, to build muscle memory. Once I've mastered the shortcuts for my most frequent actions, the app could move on to teaching less-frequent ones... perhaps up to some threshold.
- Cthulhu_ 7y agoIIRC Intellij had an option or a plugin for this, highlighting the shortcut for you when you mouse around. It also will often show the shortcut right next to the command of course. What I dislike about editors is that there's just no default shortcut set for a lot of actions I commonly use, and I have trouble coming up with new ones that aren't already in use.
- tomsmeding 7y agoTo be fair, the fact that it's hard to come up with good, unused shortcuts for those actions is probably the reason why they don't have one yet in the first place. :)
- Jarred 7y agoRequest: Figma shortcuts would be nice
- rgesulfo 7y agoExcellent recommendation. I'll make sure to add Figma shortly.
- samsolomon 7y agoWhile it's not exactly a shortcut, I'd highly recommend https://sketchrunner.com/ https://sketchrunner.com/ to any product designers working in a large design system. If you know the name of the icon or component, you can begin typing it into the runner bar and place it instantly. No need to hunt through all your nested symbols. It also works wonders when needing to replace existing symbols.
- rgesulfo 7y agoI second this recommendation. Such an incredible Sketch plugin. Thanks Sam for sharing it.
