"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

but it’s unbelievable that we need this kind of work around for such a simple thing. Figma should have it built in.

+1 This is easily achievable for development but impossible in prototyping.

You can actually do this quite easily: create the link to your frame and on this frame create an interaction from the frame to the desired object width “after delay” (1ms) “scroll to” …

I have managed to solve this problem with the use of a variable.

You’ll have to do the following:

  1. Create a boolean variable “Status” and set it to false.
  2. The link/button click that navigates to the next frame and specific anchor. ‘On Tap - Set Variable - Status - to - True.’
  3. On the frame that you navigate to add 'After Delay - 1ms - Conditional statement - If Status == false, do nothing - Else Scroll to ‘youranchor’. Also Set the Variable Status to False again.

Hope this helps someone. It at least works.
