How Do I Add a Menu Bar in Figma?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 10:25 pm

Figma is a great design tool that allows you to create beautiful designs for your web or mobile apps. But one thing it doesn’t have is a menu bar. So how do you add one?

There are a few different ways to add a menu bar in Figma. One way is to use the built-in components. To do this, go to the “Components” panel and drag the “Menu Bar” component onto your canvas.

Another way to add a menu bar is to create your own custom component. To do this, first create a frame on your canvas.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with Figma, we recommend that you do not attempt to add a menu bar. This could result in unwanted changes to your design.

Then, add three rectangles inside the frame, one for each menu item. Finally, add some text inside each rectangle for the menu item label.

Once you have your menu bar created, you can style it however you want. To change the colors of the rectangles, simply select them and then use the “Fill” color picker in the toolbar. To change the font family and size of the text, select the text and then use the “Text” options in the toolbar.

If you want to create a more sophisticated menu bar, you can also add icons to each menu item. To do this, first find some icons that you like (there are many free icon sets available online). Then, upload them into Figma by going to File > Place Image.. Once they’re uploaded, you can drag and drop them into each rectangle.

Adding a menu bar in Figma is easy and there are many different ways to do it. With a little creativity, you can create a beautiful menu bar that will make your app stand out from the rest!
