How Do I Crop Something in Figma?

Last updated on September 29, 2022 @ 10:09 am

There are a few ways to crop something in Figma. The first is to use the built-in cropping tool.

To do this, select the layer you want to crop, then click on the “Crop” button in the toolbar at the top of the screen. This will bring up a cropping window where you can drag the edges of the layer to crop it down to the size you want.

Another way to crop something in Figma is to use the “slice” tool. This tool is found in the toolbar next to the “Crop” button.

PRO TIP: If you are planning on cropping something in Figma, be warned that it is a difficult and time-consuming process. There is no easy way to do it, and you will likely spend a lot of time fiddling with the crop tool before you get it right. In addition, once you crop something in Figma, it cannot be undone, so make sure you are happy with the results before you commit to them.

To use this tool, select the layer you want to crop, then click on the “Slice” button. This will bring up a slicing window where you can drag the edges of the layer to slice it into smaller pieces.

Finally, you can also crop an image by using masks. Masks are found in the “Layer” menu at the top of the screen.

To use a mask, select the layer you want to crop, then click on the “Add Mask” button. This will bring up a masking window where you can drag the edges of the layer to mask it down to the size you want.

No matter which method you use, cropping an image in Figma is a quick and easy way to change its size and shape.
