Question

"Ignore autolayout" not available for components from libraries


Katherine_Olvera1

I’m currently working on a file that includes components from a design library. I see the button to “ignore autolayout” for any components that I add locally in the file, but it is not available for components from libraries.

The only way to get it to apply it is to create a frame or group around the library component instance, add “autolayout” to that frame/group, and then ungroup.

But then, I also can’t remove the “ignore autolayout.”

This seems to be a bug.

Similar problem here. Would love a response from a Figma employee.

Hi! For everyone here (including you as OP ​@Katherine_Olvera1), I have a bug ticket filed to have this looked into, but I’m not sure the timeline on when it will be reviewed. I understand that it may be a significant blocker for your workflows, so I’ll update here once I do hear more. 

 

Thank you!

Hey everyone - just a note that I have not yet received any updates. For full fuIl transparency: I can’t guarantee a timeline just yet, but I’ll still keep my eye on things. Thank you very much for your patience.
