Figma is simply crashing it by getting better and better every single day ❤❤❤❤❤❤

🎉

I think the thumbnail didn't got the attention it deserved. A powerful way to implement that it is easy to follow! Nice

Спасибо Figma, что ты есть!

This looks great for mixing Figjam and Figma files. Often we have research in Figjam to reference for the work being done in Figma. For splitting two Figma files though, it's way too cramped. If you could resize that UI more to make room it would be nice. Maybe an easier way to work on master components in one file and see the outcome in another.

This would be more useful if there where a shortcut for publishing/updating libraries, this way you could have a view on one side with the UI hidden and change components on the other side, publish/update on either side and view changes in "real time".

Your tutorials and product are incredible. I'm not a designer but Figma is slowly changing that.

Nice feature 👌

this is beyond science

I think I can consider dual screens now. Just for dual screens.

Yes, I'm interested in a deep dive when to use variables vs styles.

Hi! How did you manage to get your face popping out of the hexagon like this? Can I do this using OBS?

Can you make the plugin run outside the Figma window? This would be very useful

Great! Been needing this for a while

Awesome. those are in deep in product designing with team, trust me even these tiny things matters a lot. Thanks Figma.

My default is still opening up the file in two separate windows so I can spread it across two desktops so I can reference components on one page while building on another

Did this by mistake before coming across this video and I initially thought my Figma was broken.

Awesome. This is going to make choosing a component from a seperate library file a bit easier and quicker for me.

Guys please add page reload shortcut to the desktop, its annoying by doing it right click :/

I suppose this works more for people who design with one screen

I think you should remove old videos that don't reflect the current ui.

it’s would be good if we can resize those left and right panels tho

Ahh yeah this now is a good one 👌

@figma needs to be more touch friendly. Sometimes I need to use it in my tablet, and its terrible

Looks good. However, I'm still eager to see the scaling of stroke sizes for components nested within other components. Do it, Figma!

Should have the feature to open in a new window that can be moved around just like a browser window

One of the best tutorials ever that helps me a lot. It's like a reference for me.

This is just mindblowing!

Good tutorial. But the ux for this tool is so bad, its completely un intuitive, its upsetting, who made this mess?

This looks like it wouldn't work with a component library that already has variants that are used for general builds.

To do this I can't use autolayout on the "body" frame?

I completely understand the frustration of some of the voices here complaining it's all becoming too heavy but as as a designer/developer working on rather large/more complicated projects with design systems, I highly appreciate all these changes because it's making my work more consistent and maintainable. So thumbs up. And those who don't want to use these feature can simply skip them. The UI didn't change in a way that would be make doing simple tasks more complicated 😊

Great explanation and walkthrough! really glad to see that you went beyond the most basic example and showed how to handle more complex ones as well!

So cool!!.... This helps so much... Pushes UX and UI designers to think a bit more as developers and blends that line... is the right way to be more involved a good product creation process..

Fantastic video. Thanks for making it ❤

This is a great video to show Figma users how to publish and user variables natively. It seems they are similar to styles within Figma.

Wow

i'm having a really tough time making components that are essentially paragraphs and then when i make children of it in autio layout, having the different quantities of text be respected

When will autolayout properties be packaged as styles?

This tutorial is too advance.

This seems needlessly complex compared to something like Axure. Yes, Figma’s UI is worlds easier than Axure, but with Figma’s attempt to include things like variables for prototyping, it feels like their interface is being heavily weighed down and losing its initial advantages.

What are you most excited about with variables for typography: This is a great start! Having relative line-height as we do in CSS with just 1.4 would be ideal, and if not a float, then 140%. But having variables for HSL color type things - and for gradients would be much higher on our list. HSB(@hue, 60, 100) etc. EDIT: looks like we have the ability to use color variables in gradients now! : )

Typography variables are BROKEN, as it does not accept % values for lettering space or line-height! Very frustrating :/

And this whole wonderful system fails when I have a h6 of 14 pixels in the mobile version (such a specific font), and my body text is 16 pixels in both the web and mobile versions. Cascade system of text styles for different resolutions still looks much easier and clear to use and support. Wish Text Styles tool could be more friendly in Figma UI (larger window or separate selection panel, ability to copy groups, visible parameters when selecting font layer etc.).

lol at some of these comments. Figma finally releases this sick, new feature and we're already complaining and wanting more 😂

Great!!!
