In Figma Slots with auto-layout, text set to width=fill and height=hug won’t resize properly when the parent component’s width changes, because height hug fixes the text’s height. To fix this, try using height=fill, adjust auto-layout settings, or let the parent control resizing. Slots can behave unintuitively, so careful setup is needed.
