Join Chris Converse for an in-depth discussion in this video Nested symbols, part of Sketch: Prototyping an Image Carousel.
- [Announcer] So now we're going to make a symbol…of the nav dot that looks like it's selected.…So this will be the way we indicate to our users…which page of the image carousel they're on.…So on the symbols page here,…I'm gonna select the nav dot symbol.…Hold the Option and Shift key.…Click and drag to create a copy.…Then over here in the layers panel,…let's come in here and rename this to…nav - dot selected.…Press Return.…
Now let's zoom up here a little bit.…Let's come in here to the insert menu.…Let's choose the oval tool.…And I'm gonna get my cursor right in the center, here.…And then once I'm right in the center,…these smart guides will show up.…I'll hold the Option and Shift key and click and drag.…And I wanna create a circle with the diameter of ten pixels.…So once that's in place,…let's come over to the inspector panel.…Let's turn off the borders.…Let's go to the fill color.…Let's set this to white.…And so with that in place, I'll zoom out a little bit.…
I'll pan over here a little bit…so we can see all of the artwork together.…
