Hey Figma community 👋
Question: I have multiple layers in 1 frame, most of which are vector shapes. I have one specific area I want to mask so it can be reused numerous times across our team, if I make the whole frame a component though I seem to be unable to paste images into the mask.
Does anyone know why?
I have found a solution but I’m not sure it’s all that elegant 😬
The solution:
(1) Layers to frame
(2) Frame to component
(3) Select component from the assets panel, detach it, then paste it inside the mask.
This works but I feel it is breaking a lot of Figma conventions.
Keen to know if anyone has a better way. 🙏 😊
