When editing a slot property, what does "Set fill as default" under 'Layout' do?

I can’t seem to figure it out. Is this referring to an auto-layout setting? Or something to do with preferred instances?

It sets the content you drop onto the slot to "Fill container".

Note: It seems that if the slot uses Horizontal auto layout, "Fill container" is only applied to the height — and vice versa for Vertical auto layout (only the width is set).

@Markus_Girlinger Ahh, that makes sense and is kind of what it was looking look to me. Glad to have the clarification. They should definitely add this into the help docs and add a hover tooltip to explain, haha.

Thank you!

We need this to support Slot auto layout set to horizontal and children set to fill horizontally. Once again it feels like Figma doesn’t know what features its users need.
