Discover how to connect Figma frames effortlessly for easy navigation in prototypes! This step-by-step guide demonstrates creating interactive, clickable prototypes with efficiency and finesse.
Crafting a smooth, interactive prototype in Figma requires linking frames to mimic how a user would navigate. This technique enables a more lifelike depiction of user journeys and interactions in your design. By tying frames together with interactions and transitions, you can create the impression of a true app or website. Be it for pitching to stakeholders or conducting user tests, mastering frame connections in Figma prototypes can majorly boost the storytelling and practicality of your design. Knowing how to link frames well is crucial for building dynamic, user-friendly prototypes.
Head over to the top-right corner of the Figma interface and click on the "Prototype" tab. This will switch you from design tools to prototyping tools.
Click on the frame that will be your starting point for navigation. This frame will have an interactive element that users will click to move to another frame.
Once you've selected the starting frame, click on any interactive element within that frame, like a button or link. This will make the interaction handles pop up.
Click and drag the circular interaction handle (it looks like a white circle with a plus sign) to the frame you want to navigate to. This will link the two frames together.
After dragging the interaction handle to the destination frame, a pop-up menu will appear where you can set up the interaction details:
Go back to the "Prototype" tab and repeat Steps 2-5 for any other frames you want to link together. Each time, select the frame, then the interactive element, drag the interaction handle to the new destination, and configure the interaction.
Click the "Present" button located at the top-right corner of the Figma interface to enter Presentation Mode. Test the navigation by interacting with the elements to ensure that all links between frames are functional. Adjust any settings as necessary based on testing feedback.
Once you're happy with the prototype, save your work. You can also share the prototype by clicking the "Share" button to generate a shareable link for stakeholders to review. Make sure sharing permissions are set appropriately for viewing or editing.
