Set default autolayout values

Often I’m adding autolayout around a frame/component/element, and the default vertical and horizontal padding is 10px. As well, the gap applied is 10px.

It would be amazing to set the default padding and gap to auto-layout elements. This would help with keeping your files clean, but also, to ensure that redundant CSS properties are not added to dev mode output.

Clearing and resetting these properties takes time and often the gap is not cleared due to the property not having an affect on single children.

Thanks!

I just cannot figure out who decided that the default for anything should be 10px.

No grid anywhere is gonna be base-10. Not done by a designer.

The default gap between items being 10 is absolutely annoying! Having to delete that and make it zero every time is a waste of my time. And the fact that not everyone on a team WILL be that proper to clear it…makes working with others more challenging.

Yes to this.
