In Sketch, holding Option + Command allows users to drag a selected object from anywhere on the canvas, without needing to hover directly over the object. This feature significantly enhances workflow efficiency, especially in complex designs where objects may be obscured or challenging to click precisely.
In Figma, dragging an object requires the cursor to be directly over the object or its bounding box, which can be limiting in certain scenarios. Introducing a similar functionality in Figma would streamline the design process, reduce unnecessary clicks, and improve overall usability for designers accustomed to this behavior in other tools.
Implementing this feature would be a valuable addition for users transitioning from Sketch and would enhance Figma’s user experience by providing more flexible object manipulation.
