How Do I Use Figma Shortcuts?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 8:28 pm

If you’re anything like me, you’re always looking for ways to be more efficient. That’s why I was excited to learn about Figma shortcuts.

Figma is a great tool for designers and there are lots of keyboard shortcuts that can help you speed up your workflow. Here are some of my favorites:

To create a new frame: Hold down the Shift key and click on the canvas. This will create a new frame that’s the same size as your current selection. You can also use the shortcut Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + N.

To duplicate a frame: Select the frame you want to duplicate and press Cmd/Ctrl + D. You can also use the shortcut Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + D to duplicate a frame and all its contents.

To select multiple frames: Hold down the Shift key and click on the frames you want to select. You can also use the shortcut Cmd/Ctrl + A to select all frames on a layer.

To nudge a frame: Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to nudge a selected frame. You can also hold down the Shift key to move 10px at a time.

Using these shortcuts will help you work faster in Figma and improve your efficiency. Give them a try next time you’re working in Figma!
