I’m using the layout guide to create columns, but they are failing to show up? I’m currently using the Figma Desktop App version 125.5.6 on macOS Sequoia 15.5.

The problem is that your frame is rotated 90 degrees. Reset it to 0, and the grid will appear.

Hi ​@Eunice Lee,

 

I understand you're having trouble seeing your layout grids.

Could you please double-check if  "Layout guides” is enabled? You can find this option in a few places:

  • View menu in the menu bar
  • Action menu on the toolbar
  • Zoom/view options dropdown menu at the top of the right sidebar.

 

For more details, please check this article: Hide or show layout guides 

 

Thanks,

    This is such a lame problem. How do I rotate a frame if I want landscape while still preserving the layout guides? Do I manually have to change the height and width every time? 

    Idk, seems like a bug to me. not intuitive.
