I recently started my Figma journey and learnt about vertical scrolling. I managed to get it to work to scroll down, as in swiping upwards, there will be more information below replacing the information at the top.

 

However, I had an idea that needed the user to be able to scroll up, as in there’s more information above, and said information will replace the information that will be pushed down and out of the screen. 

 

I tried to do it, but the frame didn’t cover the top section of my information, and merely pushed it out of the main frame, so I was wondering if it’s possible or I’m just wasting my time trying.

 

Thanks for the help in advance.

I solved it myself!

 

I was watching a video by Darren Northcott, “Create A Draggable Slide Up Action Card In Figma Using Auto Layout - Figma Tutorial” when he talked about increasing the frame size and aligning the group to the bottom of the frame. I had an Eureka moment watching that and tried out the opposite of what he was doing, turned out to work perfectly! Took some tweaks and trial and error but it’s working great now.

 

If you need the steps:

  1. Group scroll items
  2. Add said group to a frame
  3. Decrease frame size to size of your scroll view section (eg. if you have 3 images and you want to show one at a time, make the frame the same size as 1 image)
  4. Under the alignment tab, make it “align bottom”
  5. Adjust it however you need

 

Hope it helps you as much as it helped me! :)
