"Scroll to" objects in different frames

Currently Figma only allows scrolling to objects within the same frame. This makes difficult to hyperlink to a particular location in a different frame. E.g. when making the main navigation menu in a website to navigate to specific headings in a different page

  1. While creating a clickable prototype, I want to enable a button to take the user to a specific scrolled position on another frame/ artboard. Currently, I can only use the “scroll to” feature if it is within the same page.

Would it be possible for the Figma team to solve this by having an added interaction called “Navigate to scrolled position” and allow the user to connect from an item in one screen to another item in a different screen? The prototype would then seamlessly shift between screens and incorporate scrolls.

Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

@anon21722796 Is this feature going to be added? It would be great to link to a specific section in another page vs. just the default top. Let me know. Thanks!

This is a crucial feature! Mobile sites don’t have space for full navigations and require the hamburger menu overlay. How else can one prototype a mobile single-page site?

When is this feature being added?

A work around would be to navigate to the other page(make another copy or else the original page will scroll) and scroll to position from there after delay

That’s what I did lol, but the problem is that I won’t be able to click on that anchor link and scroll again since I am already on that copied page, you don’t want your original page to scroll

Hello, have you tried the after delay interaction? It could solve the need. Once the frame loads (100ms) you can scroll to a specific layer. Good luck!
