It's unfortunate that you have to create so many workarounds in Figma in order to be able to create something as simple as a dropdown list. Imagine how much connections you'd have to make if you wanted a dropdown with 10 items! When it takes less time to actually code the design instead of prototype in Figma, that's a sign that Figma is inefficient for prototyping purposes.
@DesignXstream

Yes, agree on that! Figma is just for basic prototyping. For Advance prototyping I prefer Protopie or Framer! or even AzureRP.

Apparently interactive components are useless and impossible without this elusive "beta". I have NEVER in my LIFE seen something that's DESIGNED FOR UI DESIGN, be so user-hostile. This is ABSOLUTELY stupid, and NOTHING ANYBODY shows in any tutorial - with multiple methods I might add - makes sense OR WORKS. GIMME a STUPID way to do it and I'd like that more than the fucking shitstorm of a steaming DUMPSTER fire of confusion and contradicting methods/solutions/tutorials. I work for a company that the beta isn't sanctioned for. How the FUCK did people do this BEFORE the beta??? Was it just impossible? EVEN if that were the case it would be more satisfying than what feels like chasing the FUCKING wind for a GHOST who's part of a LEGEND that I THINK I heard some drunk guy WHISPER to a GOAT at a bar 30 million years ago - when I was wasted too. Fucking jesus christ.

Great stuff, and very polished! If anyone is out there lol I'm getting snagged on a few things with a modification I'm making to this (I added two items to the dropdown list). 1) the first item in the dropdown list automatically selects itself when hovering over it, 2) the last three items on the dropdown list ease into the wrong item when selected, and 3) the none of the selected states are able to revert back to the open dropdown list (with the exception of the last item, which only allows me to do this once). I'm kind of running out of things to troubleshoot at this point.

Hi, How did you get the chevron arrow to rotate? I tried with smart animate but it doesn't rotate when clicking. Thanks

@DesignXstream 2 жыл бұрын
In the open state you just need to keep the chevron at 180 degrees and it should rotate.

If you use too many interactive components the file might lag a bit but other than that I found it works fine just like normal.

I have a vertical menu bar instead of a horizontal one. How can I make it so the dropdown menu will make the items underneath move further down and retract when mouse scrolls elsewhere?
@DesignXstream
@DesignXstream 3 жыл бұрын
Try using autolayout and use while hover animation. So using autolayout will make sure the items underneath move further down on expanding.

Figma is jst a basic prototyping tool. For such full fledged prototypes you should look for other advanced prototyping tools like Protopie, UXPin, Framer, etc. They have real input fields and dropdown lists etc. that yu can use for proper prototyping.

@DesignXstream
@DesignXstream 3 жыл бұрын
Hey Kris, Definitely IPS monitor is much better as it enables you to see your design in good clarity and colors. However, if you are a beginner and cannot afford then that shouldn't become a hurdle to get started... UI design can be done on an anti glare panel as well.

Here is the problem I have with your videos: you start with a number of components already made and do things like "Change data here" and "hide this" but not "Here's how you CREATE these components. I can't follow along as someone who is just getting into Figma. You also don't mention the necessary files at the start of your videos (I understand that they are in the description, but it should be mentioned). You mention not wanting to create these from scratch because that will take too long, but that is what so many of us need!

Just make sure the 'Clip Content' of the frame is on then when you resize everything will be hidden. However, this is an old method, Would suggest you try the new one here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/js-kYJh-q66xaGw.html
