"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

How has this taken longer than 2 years to implement?! C’mon Figma Team please build this into the next update!

This is how I used Figma’s newer features to get this to work. It’s a little complex but does the job as expected. Please like and share if you find the video helpful. I’ll dig through the Figma archives to see if I can find similar problems to solve.

maybe not the best way but what I did was duplicate the original frame by the number of links I had on the menu, then I added when tap, navigate to their own frame. then on each frame I added a after delay of 1ms to scroll to the right section… that solved my problem ☺️

Hello all - you’re not alone in this one! Seems like a pretty silly things for Figma to be missing - and a pretty simple thing to fix. Please take this as a vote from me @Figma - pretty disappointing when trying to make a clickable table of contents with what is supposed to be enterprise level software and finding that it won’t work… 😦

Yes got this to work but takes multi-step. Click to and then mouse enter and then scroll to named object. Would be great if this could be grouped into one action without having to break up auto-layout which i had to do to get it working at least in my work around scenario.
