How Do I Merge Groups in Figma?

Last updated on November 27, 2022 @ 7:40 pm

If you’re working on a team project in Figma, you may find yourself needing to merge two or more groups together. Here’s how to do it:

    1. Select the groups you want to merge by clicking on them while holding down the Shift key.

    2. Right-click on one of the selected groups and choose “Merge” from the menu that appears.

    3. Your groups will now be merged into a single group.

There are a few things to keep in mind when merging groups:

PRO TIP: If you are working on a Figma project with multiple people, you may want to merge groups in order to keep everyone on the same page. Here’s how to do it:

1. Select the group you want to merge.
2. Click the “…” icon in the top right corner of the group.
3. Select “Merge Group.”
4. Choose the group you want to merge with from the drop-down menu.
5. Click “Merge Group.”

However, there are a few things to keep in mind before merging groups:

– Make sure that both groups are on the same page. If they’re not, you won’t be able to merge them.
– Merging groups will combine all of the objects in both groups into a single group. This can be helpful if you want to move or delete multiple objects at once, but it can also be confusing if you’re not expecting it.
– You can only merge two groups at a time. If you have more than two groups that you want to merge, you’ll need to do it in multiple steps.

  • The order of the groups you select will determine which group becomes the “parent” group after the merge. The parent group will contain all of the other groups’ content.
  • If you have objects within your groups that are positioned at different offsets, they may end up in different positions after merging.

Keep these things in mind and you’ll be able to merge groups like a pro!

Conclusion


Merging groups in Figma is a quick and easy way to consolidate multiple groups into a single group. To merge groups, simply select the groups you want to merge, right-click on one of the selected groups, and choose “Merge” from the menu that appears.
