How do you make an Auto Layout in Figma
Introduction:
Figma is a powerful design tool for creating website designs, user interfaces, and other visual elements. It also offers a powerful Auto Layout feature to help you quickly and easily create complex layouts. With Auto Layout, you can quickly and easily create responsive web layouts, user interface layouts, and other complex designs. In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to use Auto Layout in Figma to create beautiful and responsive designsWhat Is Auto Layout
Auto layout is an amazing feature of Figma. Using Auto Layout, frames and components can be created in a very lively way. Height, Width, and positions of the elements can be adjusted automatically in a magical way using this amazing feature.
Auto Layout Properties
Frames with auto layouts have entirely different properties than regular frames. When you apply auto layout, changes appear in the right sidebar panel.
Alignment
Alignment is a powerful feature that allows you to control how child objects are aligned within a frame. With alignment, you can choose how your child objects are positioned and resized within the frame. You can also choose whether or not alignment settings are applied to all children or just specific ones.
Constraints
The Absolute position item allows you to set constraints on any of its parent containers. A constraint will determine how, and how much the item responds when resizing its parent frame.
Resizing Auto Layout Layers
If you want your auto layout frames to be completely fluid, we need to apply the fill width property to our text layers. Fixed-size text layers won't resize to accommodate our text changes, which will cause overlap between layers in an auto layout frame.
Strokes
In this option, you can set whether the strokes in an element will be inside the box or outside. For example, if you design a button with a stroke, you can choose whether it will be inside or outside the frame.
Fill Container
Objects in an auto layout frame set to Fill the container stretch to the width and/or height of their parent frame.
