Taking this as an opportunity to ask questions to other Pixate users: until there's a proper Sketch export feature, are there any tips and tricks you have in your workflow between the two apps?
Pedro Wunderlich
@raveeshbhalla Sadly, this is one of the main frustrations with many Pixate users. I export from Sketch to a folder (replacing edited assets), then drag and drop into Pixate. It's not a nightmare scenario, but it's definitely a flow that needs improvement.

Waited months for this update. Happy they finally shipped it. Initial impressions: it does feel faster, from adding layers to moving stuff around. Everything is just smoother. Merging prototypes is also crazy fast. The initial release seems to be breaking some prototypes though, so back up your prototypes before downloading.

@pddro I was so frustrated with Pixate initially, because their tutorials are not nearly exhaustive to master even the basics, and there seems to be very little user generated tutorials on youtube. Principle feels like a way easier to use alternative. Should I give Pixate another try with v2?

@romanzadyrako @pddro Pixate is kinda intuitive compared to its range of functions. Though, I agree that a timeline-based tool like principle is sporting an even lower entry barrier, but principle is also more limited. Still, Pixate is pretty easy to learn on your own in a day, despite the lack of UGC, but the UI did not change compared to v1x - hence there has nothing changed for you.

@romanzadyrako @pddro Hey Roman, I recommend you check out Jared Lodwick's Pixate tutorials. He's done some sick work with Pixate, and now that v2.0 is faster, I think you should definitely give it a try: http://www.jaredlodwick.co/tutor...

Looks great - but can this export to a format that you can turn into an actual application, or translate into actual UI elements?

@lynnfredricks Hey Lynn, you can't export into a format for developers, but that's definitely something we've talked about doing. You can of course pass them the Pixate file and let them inspect the values, but we don't have a specific inspection view.

Trying out Pixate but as a newbie, it definitely has a steep learning curve. In what ways is Principle limited?

This looks so nice and polished. Will have to give it a try. cc: @mscccc

Been a Pixate fan since this summer, only complaint is that some repetitive tasks are a pain with the drag-and-drop interface. It's great for prototypes that you want to remote user test. Overall, very solid app.

I've read a lot of wonderful posts, but yours has left the biggest impression on me. As a thank you, I'd like to suggest shell shockers and subway surfers. They will assist you in having a fantastic time.
