Compatible with Sketch 43.1

This plugin eases working with typography in Sketch. It enables displaying font metrics, aligning text-layers to text-layers or other layers relative to baseline, x-height and cap-height. Baseline grid reference layers can be extracted from text-layers or build with custom configurations. Text-layers can be split into several columns with specific gutter widths.

1. Create Font Metrics
2. Align Text
3. Create Baseline Layer
4. Count Characters Per Line
5. Columnize

Extracts font metrics from text layer fonts. Creates a reference layer displaying the fonts baseline, ascent, descent, x-height and cap-height as well as the default line-height relative to the font-size used ( blue ). Furthermore the x-height and cap-height center get displayed ( red ). Metrics get extracted for the first line of a text layer. width equals text-layer width.

Aligns selected text-layers and non-text-layers. Alignment is based on a metric reference, e.g. centering all layers on a shared baseline or aligning all layers at the x-height top.

Creates a baseline reference layer either from text-layers or from configuration.

Counts characters of all lines within a text layer. Shows the minimum and maximum amount of characters, the line indices for both values as well as the total amount of characters.

Splits a text-layer into multiple columns. Number of columns, gutter width and column height can be specified.

Sorry, no hyphenation at the moment.
