Dual column autolayout help please

Here are all of the elements are their relevant constraints/autolayout settings:

Looks like you either have some hug issues or maybe some constraint issues.

Can you post the file itself or else link to the file where we can access it? Screenshots are not easy to determine issues.

Also looks like some extra levels of nesting that you could do without. That might be giving you fits.

Thanks for your reply, how would I do so? I’m just on a starter plan ATM

I think this must be it, as it’s behaving oddly and I think that must be the reason - just stuck ATM how best to attack it further as have reduced it to bare minimum, nesting wise - at least according to my current understanding of Figma.

Thanks a lot @KennLucas I really appreciate your suggestions 🙂

You can export the file as a .fig https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/8403626871063-Save-a-local-copy-of-files#:~:text=Open%20the%20file%20you%20want,file%20to%20your%20downloads%20folder.

Mine doesn’t say save as local file. Mine says Save as .fig since I use the desktop app.

You can upload that file here.

OIr just share the file and give us the link here. https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040531773-Share-files-and-prototypes

I am headed to lunch in about 30 minutes. This should be something I can review and get back to you soon.

Hopefully you can provide the file before then. 👍

Hi KennLucas, this should be it?

Oh.

Your BODY TEXT frame is set to fixed height. Change that to hug.

I also ungrouped your “Frame 1000003998.” You didn’t need that nesting.

It is always that ONE thing that you can never find! The more complex we get, the more “little things” have to be just right on every frame.

I might be able to look more tonight to see more. But at least that solves your immediate issue.

Thanks so much will try this now! 🙂
