Animator’s Magic Trick
YouTube video by Alex Grigg // Animation for Anyone Animator’s Magic Trick

I used two icons. Wanted to stick with our existing icon system instead of making a custom one for this. I swap the icons at the fastest part of the animation so it hides pretty well. Borrowed the idea from this traditional animation technique www.youtube.com/shorts/82tbH...

Messing around with input validation styles. Can't decide if I like animating to normal state or shifting to success better.

I like how the glass becomes frosted when the menu opens to increase readability

I recently started too. That's a beautiful first try πŸ‘πŸ˜„. Can't wait till I get something like this.

Mobile version of a web app I've been working on. We tried platform specific versions for iOS and Android but ended up going with a unified design to keep a consistent user experience and simplify development. #uidesign #designsky

Tried it without icons but felt like it went too far. Opted instead for something in between by deemphasizing the icons. Still lets you know what happens when you click these without competing for attention with the main action items.

No, I hadn't thought of that. I'll give it a try. Thanks!

whoops, just discovered SF Symbols aren't verified on build. If you use a newer symbol name that isn't support on an older iOS version, it just doesn't render. No errors or warnings 🀷

This drives me nuts too especially when trying to reduce built in line height. Never found a solution. Hopefully someone chimes in with one 🀞

Wow, Appstore Connect now auto generates shareable art. Kinda nice but total overkill for my minor bug fix release πŸ˜„

Spent the weekend on some UI design updates to Stakburn. Made it a little more kid friendly so my son could work on his sight words. Added swipe actions and the ability to tap to hear the word aloud. He likes to cheat though so I had to disable the correct swipe if audio played πŸ˜„ #ui #designsky

You can also do this with Apple Shortcuts and then access it through Spotlight. Think you can also assign keyboard shortcuts too.

I use Keyboard Maestro to run Apple Script

tell application "System Events"
tell application process "Figma"
click menu item "Set Width to Hug Contents" of menu "More Layout Options" of menu item "More Layout Options" of menu "Object" of menu bar 1
end tell
end tell
