Grid view in the web app now comes in three sizes — small, medium, and large. Go small when you want to scan a lot of documents at once. Go large when you need a proper look at each thumbnail before you open it.
To change the size, click next to the grid view button in the top-right corner and pick Small, Medium, or Large. It works anywhere you can switch between grid and list view, including All Documents, Libraries, Templates, Trash, and your projects and folders. We’ll remember the size you pick.
If you prefer to stay on your keyboard, you’ll also find these options in the Command Bar (⌘K) while you’re in grid view.

This update includes all the great features in our Florence release, enhancements for macOS 27 Golden Gate, along with minor improvements and bug fixes.
Requires macOS Sequoia (15.0.0) or newer
For our third major update of 2026, we’re upgrading Stacks with more sizing and layout options, and expanding support for effects and shadows in more places.
We’re calling this update Florence. It requires macOS 15 Sequoia or later, which allows us to keep building Sketch with the latest Apple frameworks and APIs.
Based on your feedback, we’ve added more sizing and layout options to Stacks, along with several smaller improvements.
By popular demand, you can now set minimum and maximum sizes for stacks and stack items. You can also give stack items a relative (%) size, so layouts stay proportional as content changes.
Spacing between stack items can now have negative values, and there’s a new option to choose the z-index order of overlapping items. You can also choose whether Stacks include borders in their layout calculations.
Finally, Canvas controls and overlays for Stacks are less intrusive and more consistent.

We now support effects and shadows in more places. You can apply blurs — layer, motion, or zoom — to groups, add multiple drop shadows to frames without fills or groups, and apply glass and fade effects simultaneously to any layer.
When you apply a fade effect to a layer, we now take into account its existing opacity. We’ve also improved performance for rendering multiple shadows and effects at the same time.
Requires macOS Sequoia (15.0.0) or newer
Introducing two big productivity boosts for the web app — a Command Bar to help you navigate and work faster, and an all-new notifications experience to help you stay on top of what’s happening in your Workspace.
You can now press ⌘K (or Ctrl+K on Windows) to open a Command Bar in the web app. Type to search for commands, press Enter to use them, and work faster without leaving your keyboard.
Viewing a document? You’ll find options to toggle canvas modes, export layers, copy CSS, and manage document settings. From the All Documents view, you can navigate workspaces, move or archive documents, and search by name.
Over in the Inbox (more on this in a moment), you can filter by notification type, sort, mark all as read, or jump straight to your most recent unread — all without touching the sidebar.
Commands can also open submenus — useful for things like filtering by notification type, where you might want to toggle a few options before dismissing the Command Bar.
We’ll continue adding actions the Command Bar, so if you’re missing something specific, let us know!
We’ve given notifications a significant overhaul — the updates tab is now called “Inbox” (which matches its URL) and has a fresh design and plenty more functionality.
In the new inbox, you’ll see a notifications list that you can filter, sort, and pin to the top. New notifications also arrive in real-time — they appear at the top of the list, and we’ll show a floating badge if you’ve already scrolled down.
Selecting a notification gives you a rich preview on the right. Comments and mentions show a document breadcrumb and the full annotation thread. Downloadable assets show file count, size, format, and a Download button. Workspace invites show who invited you and you can accept them right from the Inbox.
We’ve also expanded on the notifications we show. Workspace invites, accepted invites, and archived folders all have a notification now. Some of these only sent an email before; others didn’t notify at all.
This new notifications experience lays the foundations for more bigger improvements further down the road — we’ll have more to share soon.

This update contains all the great features in our Edinburgh release, along with minor improvements and bug fixes.
Requires macOS Sonoma (14.0.0) or newer
Our second 2026 update — Edinburgh — introduces multi-paste, perceptual and vibrant gradients, big performance improvements for symbols and replacing Libraries, and some handy prototype player options.
You can now use Paste, Paste Over, and Paste and Replace across multiple selected frames, groups, or layers in a single action. This makes it faster and easier to copy content across containers, paste one item over many existing layers, or replace multiple layers across a document.
We’ve also made paste behavior more predictable. Pasting into a group now centers content within it, instead of preserving coordinates from the original frame. Pasting onto the Canvas (outside of a frame) places content in a more intuitive position related to your selection. If your copied source is out of view, we now place pasted content closer to where you’re currently working, rather than an off-screen location.

There are two new interpolation options for gradients: Perceptual (Oklab) for smooth, natural-looking transitions, and Vibrant (Oklch) for punchier, more saturated work. Both are based on human color perception, unlike Classic (RGB), which uses raw values and can produce muddy or desaturated midpoints.
We remember your most recent interpolation method and that becomes the default for new gradients. Copy CSS include
