Set default frame spacing

I agree on all fronts! I personally use 200px between frames.

It’s been almost 3 years. This seems like an easy feature to implement and it’d be soooooo helpful. Duplicating and moving frames or wrapping them in auto layout every time adds up to a lot of time that could be saved with this feature.

Would be great if that could be adjusted & changed with something like “Set Default Properties” (which is such a time-saving feature for overwriting miscellaneous defaults). ⭐ What does it take to get this into User Stories for the next sprint?

Definitely would like to be able to configure the spacing between new frames. It’s very time-consuming when adding new frames and having to adjust them each time.

Good day!

I’m joining this conversation. Being able to set a default spacing between new frames would be really time saving for me.

Basically :

• Avoiding clustered working files
• Having enough space around a screen to add notes or comments (non native) by default
• When working with a team, file organisation good practices always include a proper space between frames. Embracing this would be a good move.
• I use different spacing for mobile design, desktop, presentation, workshops. Being able to setting up by myself is important to me

Thanks Figma Team! 🙏

+1 Been wanting this for a couple years now

Still waiting lol.
Btw why 40? 42 is the answer after all!

Would be great if this feature is added. 40 is to tight.

+1 from me! I think exactly how OP mentioned, it could behave totally same as the “Nudge amount” feature. Is anyone from the development/designer team seen this thread?
