Hi Figma Team,
I’d like to request a new feature that would allow users to copy a Frame and paste it as an instance without converting it into a component.
This would be particularly useful when creating flow diagrams, where I need to showcase screen frames dynamically. Currently, I have to make each frame a component, which isn't always ideal. Instead, it would be great if we could:
- Copy a frame and paste it anywhere as a linked instance.
- Ensure that any updates made to the original (master) frame are automatically reflected in all its instances.
- Avoid the need to create unnecessary components just to maintain consistency in flow diagrams.
This feature would significantly improve workflow efficiency when documenting user journeys and processes.
Would love to know if this is something that could be considered for future updates!
Thanks,
Sohail
