How Do I Add a Desktop to Figma?

Last updated on December 1, 2022 @ 11:12 am

Figma is a vector-based design tool that is gaining popularity among web and interface designers. One of its main benefits is that it allows designers to work collaboratively on projects in real-time. Figma also has a growing library of built-in components that make it easy to create complex designs without having to start from scratch.

One of the things that makes Figma so powerful is its ability to generate production-ready code for your designs. This means that you can take a design created in Figma and turn it into working HTML/CSS code with just a few clicks. In this article, we’ll show you how to add a desktop to Figma and style text using the < p >, < b >, and < u > tags.

Adding a desktop to Figma is simple. First, create a new frame by clicking on the “+” icon in the left sidebar.

Then, select “Desktop” from the drop-down menu. This will create a new canvas that is the size of a standard desktop screen.

Once you have your desktop frame set up, you can start adding elements to it. To style text, you’ll need to use the < p >, < b >, and < u > tags. The < p > tag is used for paragraphs, the < b > tag is used for bold text, and the < u > tag is used for underlined text.
To use these tags, simply select the text element you want to style and click on the “A” icon in the toolbar. This will bring up the text formatting options. From here, you can select which tag you want to use.

Once you’ve added all of your content and styled it using HTML tags, you’re ready to export your design as production-ready code. To do this, click on the “File” menu in the top bar and select “Export”.

Then choose “HTML” from the drop-down menu and click “Export”. This will generate a zip file containing all of the HTML and CSS files needed to create your design.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that adding a desktop to Figma can be tricky and may not work as intended. If you are unsure about how to do this, please seek help from a Figma expert or support team.
