When you select layers inside a Symbol instance, or nested Symbols inside another Symbol, you’ll now see a dashed border around the parent instance, giving you some more visual context and a reminder that the whole instance will move if you drag your selection.We’ve improved the performance of flattening selections to bitmaps and trimmed PDF exports.

We’ve tidied up and improved the Inspector options for editing Symbol overrides, especially when it comes to using Data sources and multi-image selections.Enabling this will preserve that nested Symbol’s space if you hide it, meaning that the dimensions of the Symbol that it’s nested within won’t change if it has Smart Layout properties.

When you select a nested Symbol inside a Symbol instance, you’ll see a new Preserve space when hidden option in the Inspector.We’ve improved the rendering performance of previews in the Insert window and menus.When you preview an overlay’s position on the Canvas, we now show you relevant content (like shadows, for example) that falls outside of the overlay’s Artboard bounds.

You can learn more about the feature (and its current limitations) and share your feedback, over on our forum. We still have work to do, but you can enable it right now as an experimental feature via Sketch > Experimental Features.

Smart Layout in groups (experimental) We’re working on bringing Smart Layout to regular groups.

Resolved annotations aren’t visible by default, but you can show them via the View menus in the menu bar or toolbar, or by pressing Control-Shift-N. You can re-open a resolved annotation in the same way.
