Updates to PSD Lens and Parfait
Today most of the major updates happened elsewhere and there are some fantastic new releases of Muse and Dreamweaver that have a ton of features for web designers. But last week there were a couple of small things that happened that are worth sharing.
One, “Project Parfait” added support for relative measurements for font sizes. They’ve also started adding support for preprocessors and frameworks so you can copy code that works with Sass with Bourbon and LESS and Hat. To use relative measurements you just select the relative measurement you want to use, set a base font, and your fonts will be automatically converted to rems or ems.
The other thing that happened last week is that my team provided an update on the “PSD Lens”/comp to code tool that NJ showed at MAX last year. I’ve been working on that project the past couple of months and I’m really excited about sharing more over the next couple of months. The video is below and we’ve got a survey where you can sign up for the private beta that we’re hoping to roll out soon.
