Great info! Quick question since I saw it happen at the beginning - when you picked that button to swap into the dialogue box it got distorted. Does this mean for components you already made (lets say somewhere else in the design system) you'd have to make a custom local component for this everytime?

@FigmaBites 18 күн бұрын

@@JoskaBorbely what you saw there was just me showing a placeholder example of custom content. You should be able to fix any stretching by adjusting the auto layout settings and horizontal and vertical resizing settings. I believe that content was set to “fill” for both. You would only be making custom local components for content you are creating that isn’t already part of the design system. I hope that answers your question. If not, let me know.

@@FigmaBites Yes, thank you that works for buttons, the issue I'm running into is when I have a component set of logos that have different sizes, when the component swaps with the slot it is working as expected but when I toggle a variant it then distorts

I love these sorts of hacks, but also wish Figma would just make interoperability between the apps a little better. Connectors and sticky notes, at the least, should be accessible right inside of Figma.

Does that mean that every single time you want to create a dropdown for example, you can't just use a component, you have to take the component and add floaty links to it?

@FigmaBites 2 ай бұрын

No, you don’t have to use this technique at all. It was a pretty specific issue when there were multiple interactions in the same element. And I think it could’ve been fixed in a different way, too. Are you having a similar issue with your dropdown?

@teegees 2 ай бұрын

This was a really good demo of something I was wondering about doing! I have a slightly different need for calculating the total price though: 1) imagine if the quantity of each dish maps to a different price. So for example if the quantity of beef is 1, then the price is $10, and if the qty is 2, the price is $15. And if the qty is 3 or more, the price is a flat $21. 2) same with pastrami, etc, but the pricing structure may be different So for the total, I’d want to take into account all the different pricing structures. Is this possible? If so, how would one set this up?

@FigmaBites 2 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment. I’d have to play with it to know if it would work for sure but it sounds doable. You would need to set up a bunch of conditionals checking for the quantity of the item and changing the math inside of those. That same conditional would need to be repeated in a few places for total and whatnot. I’d say take a stab at it and let me know what issues you encounter. Feel free to share a link to your file once you get going

Thanks Chris for these videos! Love learning from them. I am wondering if you can also share another that covers selecting images in numeric sequences, for example, in social media photo app sites, you can select a sequence of images to post, and it will reset the order if you start over, or deselect images in the album rolls by showing a numeric order. How can you recreate that in Figma using variables?

@FigmaBites 2 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment! I’ll see if I can work up a quick example for you. I probably won’t do another bite about variables in prototypes for awhile. But I can make a file that shows it working probably

@FigmaBites 2 ай бұрын

Well I played around with it for awhile and I think this particular interaction is too complex for the current state of Figma prototyping. That said, I think it could be possible with a long string of variables and conditionals but I couldn't get it to work during my attempts.

Thanks! And yeah. There are a few options. You can use variables that are published as part of team library and then every new file can have that library on to get access to the variables. You could also use a Google Sheet and some community plugins possibly.

That was a really useful intro. One question I have is, when the layout changed and the tiles wrapped, the last tile ended up a different size. Is it possible to have the tile width adapt but keep all three tiles the same width?

@FigmaBites 6 ай бұрын

Not easily. You could possibly trick it with invisible placeholder component or something. Since these are set to a min/max width and "fill container", they will automatically fill that max width when they can.

Unfortunately no. If you wanted multiple you would have to include those cards in the right side and so some conditional logic to make a 2nd one show up. I will be showing how to increment numbers in an upcoming one
