Can We Open Figma Files in XD?

Last updated on September 29, 2022 @ 9:04 am

If you’re a designer, there’s a good chance you’ve heard of Figma. It’s a vector drawing and animation software that’s been growing in popularity in recent years, especially among web and interface designers. Figma is known for its ease of use and collaboration features, which allow multiple designers to work on the same file at the same time.

But what about compatibility with other software? Can we open Figma files in Adobe XD, for example?

The short answer is yes, you can open Figma files in Adobe XD. However, there are some caveats to keep in mind.

First of all, not all features from Figma will be supported when you open the file in XD. For example, certain advanced features like microinteractions or animations may not be preserved. Additionally, any linked files (such as images) will need to be imported separately into XD.

PRO TIP: Please be advised that opening a Figma file in XD may result in some unexpected behavior and/or errors. We recommend only opening files that have been specifically designed for XD.

That said, opening a Figma file in XD is a pretty straightforward process. Simply go to File > Open.. and select the Figma file you want to open.

Once the file is open, you can begin working with it in XD just like any other file. So if you’re working on a project with someone who uses Figma, there’s no need to worry about compatibility issues.
