Hi @Sinan_Karabulut, Thanks for reaching out to us about this. I totally understand your concerns.
Currently, if you’re on the Professional plan, we don’t have a standalone Dev Mode option. However, for those on the Organization or Enterprise plans, Dev Mode is available as a standalone seat. Dev Mode for admins
As you’ve observed, the full Design seat comes with all the Dev Mode features and access. At this time, I’m afraid there isn’t a way to limit a Design seat to only the Dev Mode features.
But here’s a little insight into what developers can do with viewer seats on your team. While they won’t have access to Dev Mode features when they switch Dev Mode on in the toolbar, they still have a few handy inspect options available. They can:
- Export assets
- View properties
- Copy code with a right-click
- Measure using redlines
For a deeper dive into what’s available, feel free to check the following resource: Can developers still inspect designs without a Dev Mode seat?
I totally get that this may not completely meet the requirements of your developers.
If that’s the case, you might be interested in a feature request that’s been gaining some traction in our community at Add Dev Mode To Professional Subscription separately from design seat. Our team has taken note of this request for future consideration, so your input there is more than welcome!
Once again, thank you for getting in touch.
