How Do I Enable Smart Guides in Figma?

Last updated on November 27, 2022 @ 6:42 pm

Smart Guides are a great way to line up objects in Figma. They appear automatically when you hover over an object, and help you to line up other objects with it. To enable Smart Guides:

    1. Select the object you want to use as a reference point.

    2. Hover over the object until the Smart Guides appear.

    3. Click on the object to select it, then click on the Smart Guides icon in the toolbar.

    4. Repeat for each object you want to use as a reference point.

To style text in HTML using < p >,< b > and < u > tags:

To make text bold: enclose the text in < b > tags.

To underline text: enclose the text in < u > tags.

PRO TIP: If you enable Smart Guides in Figma, you may find that some objects become difficult to select and move around. This is because the Smart Guides setting tries to snap objects to a grid, which can make them harder to select.
