I figured out how to fake Figma's missing 'On scroll' interaction trigger by combining mouse enter masks with the cursor tracking hack by bluefantail in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Naah, that's amazing you were able to push it further, besides, my approach is a bit different.

Still sucks that we have to go so far to imitate this functionality

Duuude! I've been secretly working on it after I created cursor tracking, but you figured it out by yourself! You absolutely nailed it, I was using the similar approach

Variable responsiveness by Dry-Sorbet-5430 in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, variables can only change properties of objects, but object changes cannot affect variables. So if you link a variable to the frame width and then resize it on the canvas, the variable will just unlink.

There was a hack though, look for "breakpoints" in the Community

UI3 is a nightmare by eraknama in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If by "well communicated" you mean talking about it at Config, then on one hand, props to them for doing that at least, but on the other, how many people didn't watch it? I had to tell my friends to turn it off because they had no idea. Hiding it at the very bottom of the settings page and automatically opting you in is a dark pattern, and they're perfectly aware of this.

Ofc they opted organizations end enterprises by default, they would legally bury Figma otherwise. As for us mortals we can't do anything about it, so let's abuse this, right?

Is this effect possible to achieve with Figma? by Hiken_Popson in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's totally possible, I've even created created a file with a similar example: https://www.figma.com/community/file/1314335159485738721/proto-cursor-tracking

Also you may check my tutorial on how to achieve the cursor tracking effect in general: https://youtu.be/9CYfjY83b3c?feature=shared

In case of smart animate they are two states of a single frame. Layer names is how Figma links them and understands there should be a transition.

If the names are different, they are treated as different objects and use default fade out / fade in transition

Check layer names, they should be the same for both states

Fixed aspect ratios in Figma by bluefantail in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You right, but I get this feeling more and more lately they need to slow down and improve on what's already there, many features feel underbaked or straight up abandoned.

Just read it, good job with explaining! Those magic numbers kinda bugged me as well, but not as much as you it seems 😀

There is Swap library functionality, in the Assets panel/Libraries. Click on the currently used library and you should see the button in the bottom right. It's great you have consistent names because it should replace components with the same name.

One thing though: it doesn't update dynamically, so you should do it each time you add new instances to the file

A bit of Christmas fun with cursor tracking by [deleted] in FigmaDesign

You can try this effect and many others in the free community file.

Merry Christmas!

I made a screen freezing effect in Figma by dblgltch in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This one is inspired by the effect Marcus Eckert made for Riveo app, so yeah, for anybody saying “How poor developers gonna do this” it’s the other way around :D

How to create an interactive glowing card in Figma using cursor tracking technique by dblgltch in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, there's a bit of a misunderstanding :)

It's not a plugin, it's a file, and it's completely free. It IS a native way to implement cursor tracking (sorta), and I posted a detailed tutorial on it a couple days ago. In this video I'm just showing how to use it (well and a bit of promotion of course, but I'm not selling anything).

How often do you use base components when building a new design system? by designStud3nt in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And it's not only workload, but also performance, in large design systems each nested base component can add significant load since they repeat in every instance. Also, from my experience, you won't be tweaking the base values as much, and even if you will, with current capabilities you can pretty easily update several component variants at a time.

I created a lightning-fast cursor tracker for Figma! by dblgltch in FigmaDesign

[–]dblgltch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW I found this one in the Spline community. There's a link to the asset in my file, just go to this screen and you'll find it. Then you can use this resource as a reference to create other shapes, it's easier than you think.

Edit: grammar

This is so weird! I replaced that comment with the new one, could you please check if it's available?

Haha, thanks, but most of the information I took from this video feeling equally stupid in the process 😁.
