There are existing plugins which have this functionality. Here’s one example:
Figma
Im aware of that. I want know how to do it through the plugin api.
One of the currently available plugins has their source code available on GitHub. Take a look through there to see how they are handling it.
github.com
he’s only doing a split(‘\n’)
not handling :
- the weird L-SEP char that appear if user does shift+ENTER (known issue)
- natural text wrapping
anyone knows if the Figma API provides any sorts of info about the lines of text generated by the text engine ? i really can’t find anything
@Vincent_Huss hi, do you have any solution now? i have the same issue.
no, i gave up on that feature,
it doesn’t seem like Figma provides any hook for that information 😕
maybe something to consider as a feature request @Figma_Product ?
=> for a text node : providing a list of bounding box for each lines
