I used to manually align every single icon in my UI mockups until a coworker showed me the grid tool in Figma.

@mitchell.shane I'm curious - what made you stick with Photoshop for so long instead of switching? The grid tool in Figma is nice but I've heard people say it makes things too rigid if you're used to eyeballing layout. Was it just habit or did you find something the newer tools messed up?

Yeah, I did that in Photoshop for years.

My buddy tried that Photoshop trick @mitchell.shane and it totally wrecked his file.
