This Sketch plugin provides a preview command (⌘⇧P) that will export the currently selected Artboard at a configurable preview size (⌘⌥P) and open the resulting image file in Skala Preview.
You can now toggle Auto Preview mode on and off with ⌘^P to automatically preview the current Artboard whenever certain changes are made.
You can always initiate a preview by changing the current selection or directly
via the Plugin menu or ⌘⇧P.
Download or
clone the latest version of this project, and open SketchPreview.sketchplugin.
The Sketch auto update feature coming in version 45 is supported as of
v0.11.0.

There are now several scaling modes intended for iOS design. These modes either change the output size to 2x or 3x based on Artboard dimensions, or they attempt to scale the preview up to simulate the Display Zoom or compatibility modes available on the iPhones 6. The simulated modes are not currently accurate, and the final image will be 1 to 2 pixels off in the smaller dimension.
This plugin has been used successfully with the following versions of software.

If you find any issues, you can try to reproduce them with the files in the test
directory of this repository. You can also check the Enable debug logging
option in the Preview Setup and look at the output in Console.app to get a
better idea of what is going on. Please open an
issue if there is still
a problem.
