Hey @figma users who use Auto Layout, what comes first: the frame or the children?
Do you create an empty frame first then add children, or gather a bunch of frames/instances and wrap them in a frame?

We’ve been using tokens with modes in @figma for over a year now. It’s been fun to see how close our internal plugin was to what finally shipped at #config2023.
Back then I was so unsure if this was a good idea!

Q for #DesignSystem folks:
So our typography tokens include variants based on breakpoints.
Ex: "heading-1" maps to different props (size, line-height, etc) on mobile vs desktop.
Has anyone tried this and run into issues later on?

Here’s a peek into how we are making tables in @figma
We leverage our internal plugin to add custom capabilities to components in our design system. We are essentially creating supercharged variants!
What features would you add to this Table Component?

We're using the awesome Create Figma Plugin library for most of the UI in this plugin. h/t @yuanqinglim

📣 Runner v1.2 with compatibility for Sketch 84 is out now!
This update also fixes drag-and-dropping components, shortcuts, navigating via RunBar, and misaligned icons in RunBar actions 🐛🔥
With this release Runner Pro also became free for everyone! 💸

I know I’m late to this party but I just published my first @figmadesign plugin 🥳 (org-only so can’t share yet)
@yuanqinglim’s create-figma-plugin library made building the UI so easy and helped me focus on the logic instead.
Highly recommended!

Finally 😅 cc/ @Sketch_Runner
3/ Quick Components. To top if off, we've created a new shortcut. Use Shift I (as in igloo) to open a menu and get the components you need faster.
A native Mac app with powerful tools. A web app for feedback and handoff. A single Workspace to bring all your people and projects together. A platform for the entire collaborative design process.

Can @figmadesign still only run one plugin at a time or am I missing something? Seems weird that running a plugin just closes another one.

I don't use Figma, but this makes me so happy! I no longer need to respond to all the "are you planning to make Runner for Figma" messages we get every other day
🥳😍
Menu search got a visual refresh!
Press Command / (Mac) or Control / (Windows) to access your recent actions, Figma plugins, menu items, and more from the center of your canvas.

If you're looking for an easier way to add SF Symbols into your @sketch document, do try the new plugin: Francisco!

Note: you’ll need to have the SF Pro font installed.

Looks like the @_midnightsketch plugin will not be updated for @sketch 70, so I’ve started porting over some of its other useful features into a new plugin called Tweaks!

🔆High-contrast Vector Handles
The default handles for vector editing are a tad difficult to see on gray backgrounds. Tweaks replaces those handles with high-contrast handles that are clearly visible on all backgrounds.

Tweaks requires @sketch 70 or above, running on macOS Catalina or above.
The plugin includes a universal binary for M1 Macs but I don’t have one to test with, so please let me know if you run into issues.
github.com/abynim/sketch-twe…
Enjoy! 🚀
