UI3 - Show Layout Properties (Width/Height/Fill/Hug)

If I select an auto layout element, I can’t see the height and width directly, as I now have to hover over fill/hug to see the height or width of an element. Makes it more complicated to quickly see the values. Please separate the height / width and auto layout setting again in UI3

Please think about having a separate input in the new Beta UI so you can always see the Width and Height. It is super annoying that you have to hover over the input to see height and width.

omg… I dont want the new UI at all.

Hey All, thanks for the feedback!

We’ll pass this onto the UI3 team for future consideration. Don’t forget to vote up top, if you haven’t yet! ☝️

The team uses votes from the community to gauge overall interest and prioritize.

The issue Danny addressed is not limited to height/width. In many area’s it requires a hover or an extra click to unveil information that I need to know on a regular basis. To sum up a few

• Corners - If the corners are not all equal it shows… but it doesn’t show the values, so extra click to see or edit
• Positioning - For ignore autolayout the nice align-tool is hidden
• Clipping - If i want to toggle the clipping to “snow content” i have to select from a dropdown, but switching between to values now requires two clicks, while back in the days it was just one
• state - In the context-menu while in prototypemode you have to open some fold-out part of the menu to see two extra fields… that could have been shown all the time anyways.

It would be lovely if these extra clicks would be removed; I rather have a bit more ugly UI than one that requires clicks and hovers to know the system-status or toggle some values I often edit

I appreciate that you want to reduce vertical space in the right panel but there is TOO MUCH hiding of options.

I really need to see the pixel width and height when I am manipulating an element even when its in auto layout.

Hiding the width and height values is annoying as hell. I have way too many clicks when manipulating layout properties for elements.

Good try, but you went a bit too far trying to save space on this particular area.

So far I life everything else.

Thanks for the additional context, @Direct_Access!

I’ll pass this onto the team as well.

Fully agreed, also for me, auto layout allign square picker is not square any more its stretched horizontaly like rectangle and it’s much harder now to pick Allign bottom left, middle and top because they’re too close to each other.

" Make Auto Layout Allign Box Square Again! "

I agree with @Direct_Access. I can’t even find the positioning tool for where a frame is anchored. You can barely see the icon.
