What’s fixed or improved in Craft?
In August, the Craft team addressed two bugs and improved contrast for better accessibility:
- Contrast corrections: If you have the Increase contrast checkbox selected in your macOS Accessibility (
) settings, all Craft plugins will now respect the intended behavior. Previously, a couple of bugs were preventing these Craft plugins from increasing contrast as expected:
- Inspecting exported symbols: You should now be able to inspect symbols that have been exported from Sketch to InVision.
- Pasting hotspots from Symbols Page: Now you can copy hotspots applied on the Symbols Page in your Sketch file and paste them across other pages and files as expected.
Version changes
The version numbers for these Craft tools were updated with this release:
- Craft Manager: version 1.0.100 (Sketch and Photoshop)
Remember, Craft Manager is a separate tool that you use to manage the Craft plugin tool suite; therefore, the version number is different than what you see when clicking Manage plugins in the Sketch Plugins menu. - Craft Sync + Prototype: 2.3.167
