Seriously need this! Managing large design systems in Figma is much harder without this feature. Breaking down a large system into multiple libraries breaks all the component in dependent files, and adds complexity to the process of publishing/updating changes. Page folders should be a no-brainer.
I just Love this idea, i am not sure about performace issues to create this big “projects”, but designers love organise thing so , FIGMA make us happy 😆 😀 🙂 😁
I want to nest pages and sub pages even further. Like an outline or how Balsamiq allows you to collapse children and parents at different levels. It would be perfect if Figma could replicate how Balsamiq works.
I think it would be handy if we had more control over the organisation of pages, often we break up sections of content with blank pages named ‘___________’ but I think this could be solved more easily with the ability to create folders for grouping pages e.g. a folder name might be ‘UI kit’ and within that there might be pages named ‘Components, Icons, Type, Colour’ etc.
The split between Pages and Layers on the side panel is a pain.
i do not think @James_Nisbet was disagreeing with you. i think he was disagreeing with Figma and pointing out to you that lets not continue to compromise; lets split the two panels completely and allow them to be used in a more functional manner because “they are two completely different user intents”.
your mockup is excellent, imo, except that the pages panel should not be displayed at all with layers. appropriate context switching can make the user’s job very easy: if the user starts selecting layers on the page they have selected the (!!!important!!! user toggleable control) tab would automatically switch to display the layers.
I do not want infinitely many page levels but a compact group name (and group drag) would be super nice.
What I have tried:
…to indent subpages → I use “└ Name” or " Name", but it feels like a hack - especially when a whole group needs to be moved, the ‘subpages’ do not follow.
… to make groups → I use "- - - N a m e : " as separator but leaves a trail of unused pages.
Why not can have a add divider when right click on the page?
Because other than using child spacing to organise more users are using hyphen (-----------) to see the pages practically divided with a line instead of page if its been added below or above the line, user can move the divider within the layer panel or can delete the divider, I thought of it more often any people who like this idea??
i’d like to add my support for page folders so that you can organise files in a better way. For example when all the different exploration is done I can dump all the WIP pages into a WIP Folder, create a specific folder for Handoff and put my spec files and assets in there. The ability to share a specific folder with the dev team would be great too, so they don’t get confused with all the other pages in the file.
We really need this!
Adding some color tags can be super useful for organizing larger files.
As we all are also using some colorful emojis but this is not a professional approach.
Files are getting bigger and more complex, we need more control.
