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.

Very much needed for me to stop selecting and creating multiple auto layouts.

Is there a tutorial video for the AutoLayout plugin. I can’t seem to get the elements to wrap to the next row. Ive created tags that can be added to a list from the filter options. I would like the tag to move to the next row once it no longer fits.

  1. Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this

When putting together prototypes to show responsiveness, it is very annoying to have to manually ‘wrap’ a row of components by creating two or more rows. I’d love for the behavior to be similar to the ‘wrap’ flexbox css property where I could select wrap or not and the list of components would wrap to a new row if their combined width is greater than the width of the parent

  1. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.)
    Current Experience (left), Desired Experience (right


    )

  2. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation
    (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc.
    Has anyone found a way to do this??

We’re desperate for this feature, It’s such a basic behaviour of the web. Hope you can introduce this soon!

Adding my voice here. I need this feature. This is one of the few things causing me to look at other tools (like moving away from Figma). We have a robust export pipeline from the API so the handoff effort from design to dev is almost non-existent. Simple things like this cause workarounds and messes that are hard to workaround.

This is great - but I would love to have that data available on the API! It’s not exported 😦
