Keyboard Shortcut for Inserting Components
In order to work quickly and efficiently, I want to be able to insert components via keyboard shortcut.
This is made possible in Sketch thanks to its Runner plugin: https://sketchrunner.com.
You can see it in action in this quick video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXXVQlfOpo4
How it works:
- Use the keyboard shortcut Command-' to pull up the Runner menu.
- Type "insert [name of component]" to filter the components library.
- Hit Enter to paste the component onto the artboard.
All without needing to navigate and click with the mouse!
Having something similar to to this XD would be a considerable improvement to my workflow.

I agree that this is a rather interesting idea for implementation, which in some situations will significantly reduce the time spent. In the same way, sod boost https://epiccarry.com/wotlk-classic/wow-classic-discovery-boost-carry/ is used to reduce time and enjoy the game completely.

Hey PlugIn Developers, I PAID REAL $$$S for Runner for Sketch just to support the product.
It is the critical missing feature in XD - Runner for Sketch is like Spotlight for MacOS - you just start typing what you are trying to do and it autosuggests every available command across ALL plugins and Sketch itself.
I cannot imagine using Sketch without it and it is absolutely such a valuable tool.
