Fluid not working inside symbol #134

Open davetatch opened 6 years ago

davetatch commented 6 years ago

When I make a symbol with a text field that has auto sizing, then add text that adds extra lines, update layout doesn't take those extra lines into account. Am I doing something wrong or does fluid not support dynamically entered text?

I'm sorry to report Fluid isn't really actively maintained. Regarding this particular issue, it's likely that some part of Sketch's text layer code changed and Fluid would need to be updated in order to address it. I plan to update the README with a notice about the lack of maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience. There's a few alternatives to Fluid that do the same, or function similarly, that I can point you to if interested.

Yes, I have been encountering the same issues. @matt-curtis really like the tool but understand time constraints all too well. would you mind pointing us to some alternatives? Thank you!

Here are two that I'm aware of (there are more, but I'd have to look them up.)

AnimaApp's AutoLayout plugin: https://github.com/AnimaApp/Auto-Layout Paddy: https://github.com/DWilliames/paddy-sketch-plugin
