I want to create auto layout for multiple selected layers. When I select multiple layers and press Shift + A, it wraps the layers in another frame with auto layout enabled. However, my intention was to apply auto layout for each layer.

Is it possible to achieve this? Because I don’t want to click on each layer and press Shift + A.

Thanks!

You can get yourself Automator plugin and import this automation - Figma Automator script - Pastebin.com

It would wrap every frame in your selection with another auto layout frame

Hi! You can try multiple wrapper

It can wrap together selected child elements individually based on parent as group, frame and auto layout. Also this plugin can change multiple selected groups to autolayout

Is there away to just apply autolayout to each individual parent frame in a selection? I don’t need an additional wrapper for each.
