Question

trying to open webpages in Figma without it opening a new tab in the browser.


Chelsea Spears

Good day everyone. I hope all is well. I have a question regarding external webpages. I’m trying to open webpages in Figma without it opening a new tab in the browser. I unchecked the ‘Open in new browser’. However, it still opens a new tab in the browser. Basically, I’m trying to open the webpages in the Prototype screen with the iPhone 16. The webpage appears, however, once a link on the page is clicked, then a new tap is opened in the browser. I would like it all to stay in the prototype screen. Can this be done?

Thank you for your time

Chelsea

What kind of link? Like a different url? an anchor? If it’s a different URL, i don’t think that’s possible.

A different URL.

Guess so. Apparently, that’s not possible because the figma prototype uses the figma domain. So what would happen is it would open the link in a new tab if it’s not from figma.
