Add a name for each divider

Great to see the addition of dividers. Would really love the ability to add a name for each divider, because this still doesn’t solve the issue where we need to create an empty page titled “{Section Name}” to call out what the divider is actually dividing.

The new update that adds a divider line between pages is excellent. However, I had an idea that could be even better: the ability to add a label to divide the pages. I created a visual representation of this, and the suggestive image is attached.

Agreed. In most cases, where I need dividers, I’ll still have to use empty pages named something like ‘· · · · · · · · · · · · · · EXPLORATIONS’ rather than the new dividers in order to clearly organize my pages.

Thanks for the feedback, @John_Jackson1!

We’re moving this to its own feature request topic. We’ll pass it onto the team for future consideration.

I agree with adding a name for sections. Today we are adding the divider with section name like (----- NAME -----).
A section with name will be better to avoid empty pages.

Can we get divider labels?

example:
--- 🌈 Label comes displays as ----------🌈 Label----------

Dear Figma!

Think in this… divider with text!

pd… with better contrast, obviously!

When working with large Figma files, page dividers have been a welcome addition. However, it is often useful to name each section of pages (e.g. by brand, or platform).

When naming a page divider, can you add the ability to name the divider?

E.g. Type in — Mobile
to display a divider in the form
----------- MOBILE -----------

Thanks

Isn’t it possible to just add the same functionality as for components, use / in the naming to create a hierarchy and folders?
Then it would just be a front-end rendering thing in the interface.

For example:
project/intro
research/interviews
research/benchmarks
prototype/version A
prototype/version B
archive/…
