I came across this incredible discovery on Twitter (yes, I'm well aware, the platform is now referred to as X). It's an amazing addon for logo designers. I was wondering if there's something similar available for Designer, or if we could potentially create it ourselves using our internal tools like macros. I'm really curious to know if achieving this is within our reach.

Or rather, its official name is now X, but many people still refer to it as Twitter.

The Twitter logo was carefully constructed, unlike the 𝕏 logo which (very lazily, in my opinion) is nothing more than the Unicode character U+1D54F, known as MATHEMATICAL DOUBLE-STRUCK CAPITAL X.

We don’t have any way to create plugins, so that route isn’t available to us at the moment.

I wouldn’t be surprised if someone here can point the way to achieving it with the existing features in the app.

Great to hear that! Personally, I'm not a big fan of plugins either. So, I view this idea as more of a fantastic feature. With the addition of the amazing shape creator tool, it will truly become a perfect combination. Just imagine the endless possibilities! When you select this tool, envision a button conveniently located at the top that allows you to effortlessly choose a grid. It will be nothing short of magical!

I hope so, it will save time during the creation process. I mean, I love taking my time to build a logo, don't get me wrong. It's just that a helpful tool like this one will boost productivity to another level.
