Master Figma prototypes with drag and drop. Uncover secrets, explore step-by-step guides, and follow best practices for smooth user journeys.
Figma's drag-and-drop interactions bring a lively touch to prototypes, making them feel more authentic and captivating for users. These features let you mimic the dragging of UI elements, giving a hands-on feel during usability tests or client demos. With customizable drag triggers and actions, designers can craft smooth, intuitive prototypes that act just like real-world apps. This guide delves into the steps needed to set up and master Figma's drag-and-drop capabilities in design projects.
Alright, first things first, open up that Figma file with your design. Make sure you're in the "Prototype" tab on the right-hand side panel. Easy peasy.
Next, click on the frame or component you want to add drag and drop to. It could be just one object or a whole group. Your choice!
If you're not already in "Prototype" mode, switch over by selecting the "Prototype" tab on the right. It's like flipping a switch.
Now, click and drag that little circular node on the component you want to make draggable. Connect it to the target frame where you want it to move. Simple, right?
In the sidebar under "Prototype settings," pick “On Drag” from the interaction drop-down menu. This tells Figma that the interaction will start with a drag gesture.
Choose the animation type you want. Options like "Smart Animate," "Instant," or others are available. Pick what fits your design best.
Tweak the easing and duration settings to get the animation just right. These little details make the interaction feel more natural and polished.
Hit the “Present” button at the top-right corner to preview your prototype. Test out the drag and drop interaction to see if it works smoothly.
Go back to the prototype settings and tweak anything that needs fixing. Adjust the interaction, animation type, easing, or duration based on what you saw during testing.
