Add auto layout to Sections

+1 Must-have, especially now that sections are becoming more important for the handoff to dev-mode

We need this! Fast! 😊

This would make structuring files and especially dev handover with the new dev mode so much easier! I hope Figma adds this soon.

I would love to see this in Figma soon. I find the usefulness of Sections to be pretty limited without Autolayout available for contents within a section, and for handoff documentation I would like to have a standard “intro” component that my team can attach to the beginning of every section to call out user journeys, label the section, and provide dev notes and useful links. If Sections behaved the same as ordinary frames, I would be able to do this easily, and the “intro” component would grow vertically as needed for taller sections.

This would be incredibly helpful, especially with the new “ready for dev” feature of sections.

Use Case: icon library - the section can be the container supporting the name and the release state

+1
This is the main reason I don’t use sections at the moment. I create huge frames within frames within frames to manage my screens, and avoid having to move them around by hand every time I need to add or delete something.

Now that sections are the key to the “ready for dev” feature, it becomes even more important that sections allow us to arrange screens easily inside.

Another +1 here. It would be really really much more easier to use, especially with new “dev handoff mode”. For now I am using auto-layouts manually

This would really help me organize my files. Right now, sections aren’t that useful without autolayout.
