Fast Text Transfer is a Sketch plugin that adds lightning fast copying, pasting and swaping text.
Stop wasting time "entering" text layers, selecting all text, copying or pasting text selection followed by "exiting" text layers, sometimes making a mistake and breaking things. This plugin does all that and more in a single action. It's like "copy / paste style" for text.
Works with Sketch 46 or later.
