## What it is
A Sketch.app plugin that creates buttons with fixed paddings regardless of the text they contain. Users type padding values in a text layer name and press Cmd+J to auto-resize the button background.

## Use cases
- create buttons with fixed padding in sketch
- auto-resize button background when text changes
- convert text layers to buttons in sketch
- apply css-style padding shorthand to sketch buttons
- update multiple button layers at once in sketch

## When to choose
- you design UI in Sketch.app and frequently make text buttons with consistent padding
- you want a lightweight plugin to automate button resizing

## When to avoid
- you use Figma or another design tool instead of Sketch
- you need a maintained plugin for recent Sketch versions, as this was last released in 2016
