The crazy thing is, I could watch and especially listen to your tutorials all day. And your progression is impressive!
One point about Auto Layout and "Space between" I have to activate the menu first and then use "cmd x". Otherwise I cut out my object, right? I use the "double-click"

Thanks for sharing all the tips and tricks. Some of them I knew before, but some were new to me.

The boolean mode trick has phenomenal implications on responsive layouts if the modes are freed up for width. Really great tip.

Hello, I have a question -> Is there a trick or workaround for wrapped text? Text-over-flow? Example. I have a card with an image and a text block to the right of it. The text in the text block is clearly higher than the image. I would like the text to flow into a new “row” from the bottom edge of the image. This then runs across the entire width.
I hope you understand what I mean
