When there is only one software available in the world, what is your choice?
90% of designers would choose Photoshop without hesitation!!
Because, whether it is painting, composition or rendering, PHOTOSHOP can do it!!
In short, PHOTOSHOP is more powerful than you can imagine.
But often walk in the river, where will not wet shoes! I opened Photoshop this morning and encountered the first problem of the year:
To ensure that the computer is not overloaded;
I started jumping back and forth between PS and AI.
Of course, the results are predictable!!
After so many fights, I feel more and more impatient…
Until by colleague amli a so-called online design artifact – copy guest DT, AT the beginning I still do not believe, think is like beautiful picture beautiful show can grind skin thin face only, but the result after opening is however…
After opening the interface is like this, at first glance almost feel very familiar… I thought Adobe had developed a free online design tool to compensate designers for their consciences!
I used it to test its usefulness and finished a page of UI in less than 10 minutes.
Woo!!!!! The overall experience is still very smooth ~
I heard that there will be support for file import in various formats, such as XD, Sketch, etc.
But there’s more to it than that!
For example, when you meet party A who wants to see the source file but can not open it, you can directly send him the project link, click to preview.
Copy guest DT whole interface and a few mainstream design tools do not have too much different, part of the shortcut keys are exactly the same, if you are also fed up with PS often collapse, and suffer from not to find the latest crack version, you can open this online design tool to experience.
Without further discussion, as usual we use PS will use a lot of fonts, in the copy DT here of course no problem, this software conscience built in a number of copyrighted Chinese and English fonts, even if there is no own commonly used, you can also upload the local font through plug-ins.
In addition, vector editing, mask, Boolean operation… It has all the basic functions!
But copycat DT has two differences with Photoshop. One is that the saving format is less than Ps, but the commonly used formats are there, such as PNG, JPG, webP, SVG, etc.
Second, because of the web version of the relationship, the source file is not saved to your computer, but saved in your cloud account, and support real-time automatic saving, crash this kind of thing, in its here, is not met.
By the way, since it’s an online design tool, here are a few treasure trove features that will definitely blow your mind.
01. Dynamic layout
One of my favorite features is dynamic layout, which simply means fixing the margins around elements to make the page adaptive.
When you change the size of a page, the elements contained in it are no longer violently stretched, but regularly scaled, shifted, or kept in constant size and position.
With it, you can reduce a lot of repetitive work, can be called a designer’s magic weapon.
02. Components and styles
Components are elements that can be reused in design, such as status bars, dialog boxes, and so on in UI design.
If the designer needs to use a fixed component style, the component can be created by copying DT. If necessary, the component can be directly dragged out of the left component library and used without repeated drawing.
This can help designers save a lot of time.
03. Share a resource library
As an online design tool, sharing is naturally the most convenient, and resources like those created above can be shared to the team with one click.
Help design standardization, improve team design efficiency, no longer worry about team collaboration due to poor information and errors.
04. Multiplayer online editing
This is a big feature that must be saved for last.
Because you can finally say goodbye to revising your design
Mick DT supports simultaneous online editing by multiple people, which means that teams can work in parallel and modify a file at the same time, greatly improving design efficiency.
Designers only need to share a link, so that products and development can be accessed directly, and all changes are updated in real time, without having to repeatedly upload files to synchronize progress.
Write at the end
In fact, many non-design professionals also have bulky and bulky PHOTOSHOP on their computers, and often use less than 1% of the functions.
Copy guest DT as an online design tool, the whole platform is applicable, for this part of the students, can completely meet the needs of the use of PS, no longer have to go online to search for unknown risks of pirated software, it is a magic tool!
