: Resize/transform text in Sketch? For some reason Sketch removed text resizing some time ago, but I'd say I need the feature quite often. Currently you can change text size only via size window/shortcuts

For some reason Sketch removed text resizing some time ago, but I'd say I need the feature quite often. Currently you can change text size only via size window/shortcuts which is kinda inconvenient for me.

Is there a hack to transform text layers size via dragging like in Photoshop?

Cmd+K (or clicking Scale on the toolbar) seems to be the only option.

If you hold Option while dragging the text bounding box, it will increase the type size.

Hope this helps.

You can make a shape of text by right clicking the text layer then select convert to outline. It will give the same resizing experience as Photoshop but you will lose editibility of text.
