It would be really great if there was an option in an auto layout frame where the frame would wrap the objects to the next line. Like this. Objects would respect the padding set in the Auto layout.

Auto layout is a very useful feature, and I like to use it very much. However, it is still not convenient and smart enough, because it lacks the automatic line wrapping function, just like text, the content exceeds the range and can automatically wrap.

I think you nailed how it should work. Now we just need Figma to implement it as a simple option in the sidebar.

This is some crazy wizardry. I thought I was pretty advanced with Figma, but I have absolutely no idea how this works. Super impressed, even if there’s almost no chance I can use it in my production files.

I also requested this. Here’s an example of how this feature could be implemented:

I would love to see a full flex-layout implementation, including the ability to set grow, shrink and flex-basis values.
