    The Artboard tool seems to be a case of "one of these things is not like the others"

    When I click on the artboard tool with nothing selected, I can choose at the right from multiple artboard default sizes (e.g., Apple watch, Surface Pro 4) and this becomes the default setting for the artboard tool when clicked on the canvas. This artboard default is maintained even if I have a different sized artboard selected when I click the artboard tool onto the canvas. No other tool behaves this way.

    Example: the rectangle tool with nothing selected always draws the stock gray-bordered white rectangle, with no way to set its defaults at the right like you can for the artboard. Also different: if a differently styled rectangle is selected while drawing a new one, the rectangle's default style is ignored and it draws with the selected one's style. Not true for the artboard tool.

    Shouldn't all tools use the same model? E.g., conform to the selected object's style when an instance of that tool's object is selected regardless of default; allow resetting of the tool's default when no such item is selected.

    You can direct select elements by holding CMD when clicking on items that are part of groups. Marquee selecting anchor points is landing very soon, so that you could select parts of your rectangle. Do you expect a different behavior? Did I understand your request right? Thanks for your feedback.

    Yes - Sketch's direct selection method (holding down Command then clicking) is a hidden UI, but once you know it, you know it. Saves a lot of double-clicking to get down to an item 4 groups deep, and keeps the toolbox uncluttered.

    Of course you could use it for months and months and never discover it...

    Here’s how it works currently:

    • If you drag a single image onto a Repeat Grid where all grid cells show the same image, the image will change in all the grid cells.
    • If you drag multiple images onto a Repeat Grid, you will set up a repeating sequence of different images. For example, if I drag in 5 images at the same time, the first 5 grid cells will show different images and then the pattern will repeat (e.g. every 5th grid cell will show the same image).
    • If you drag a single image onto a Repeat Grid that already has a repeating sequence of images, you’ll replace all copies of the image you dropped onto. For example, if you had a sequence of 5 images repeated 3 times (15 total grid cells), and then you drop a single image onto one grid cell, you’ll see 3 copies of that…
