    Hello. You need to use horizontal direction instead of a grid

    Yes i converted to horizontal but is keeping a uniform frame of all object instead of different frame from each object

    Probably it’s because all your text have the same fixed width. Try to change it to Auto width and apply Hug

    No they dont. It was a single text that was duplicated and when i use auto layout it widen the space each frame uniformly

    It's how Grid Auto Layout works.
    You can manually apply horizontal Auto Layout instead of using Shift+A to avoid the grid being applied automatically.

    Perfect! The text are now in a different frame size. Thank you so much. I am a beginner so is a bit hard going through it all alone. do you have any resources or information that would help in my learning process?

    Figma has a lot of its own useful learning materials
