Hello everyone,


I am following the beginners list from YouTube and I am on Figma For Beginners: Create designs (2/4). At the time stamp 12:15 the auto layout of my “Feed” frame is not adjusting the vertical gap as it should.


As I am a new user I can’t upload photos so maybe a link to my project will help ?

As you can see the text goes onto the next item in the deed even thou the setting for the gap is on and at 8.


I am pretty sure I have followed the instructions in the video to a T and yet there is a mistake somewhere. What could possibly be the issue ?


Many thanks.

Hi, Bart4.


After checking your file, I’ve determined the issues on your file.


Here are the steps to adjust the auto-layout frame you created:




  1. Remove the absolute position of the 3 Post instances in your file.

  2. Set the auto-layout frame Feed’s height to hug.

  3. Set all the Post instances height to hug.

After doing that, the auto layout frame should work.
