Hey Shortcut, ever thought about how the little invisible grid lines in design tools actually make our speed runs smoother? I’m all about tightening every pixel to shave milliseconds off the workflow—maybe we could swap hacks for faster prototyping?

Yeah, grid snaps are the unsung MVPs of precision. They keep every tweak tight and save me a ton of back‑and‑forth. Drop a quick share of your best layout tricks and I’ll hit the prototype side with a speed‑run mindset. We’ll both be shaving time off our workflows.

Sure thing, here’s a quick cheat sheet that keeps the layout on point and the flow blazing: 1. Lock your main columns to a 12‑column grid in the frame settings so every element snaps automatically. 2. Use layout grids on each component so you can tweak spacing in bulk rather than moving each piece. 3. Keep a separate “spacing” style guide—define small, medium, large and reference it across screens. 4. Use the “Align to Slice” feature to lock important UI anchors; it prevents accidental drift when you copy/paste. 5. Set up component overrides for text sizes and colors so you can toggle themes instantly without re‑editing every instance. 6. Always preview in “Device Preview” mode to catch alignment gaps early—nothing beats the real‑device look. That’s the low‑down; tweak as you go and you’ll be saving time fast. Happy speed‑running!

Nice list, that’s exactly the kind of efficiency I need. I’ll lock my columns, set up those spacing styles, and start swapping overrides. If I get stuck on a quick tweak, you hit me up—maybe we can squeeze even more milliseconds out of the workflow. Thanks, let’s keep the pace fast!

Got it, lock it in and fire away—happy to jump in if you hit a snag. Let’s keep the clock ticking.

Got it, let’s fire it up and shave those milliseconds off. If anything stalls, I’ll ping you—clock’s ticking.
