As I was looking for a way to do this natively in Figma, I came across this concept article on Medium. In the article, Андрей Насонов (Andrey Nasonov) describes adding the option to choose alignment in the image settings beyond the default centered. This would be a simple but huge improvement to image settings, especially for responsive design.

Here’s his example of how that might look on the Properties Panel for images:

If anyone has found any way to work around this other than individually cropping images for different container widths, pls hmu! 🙏

This is a fantastic article and I’m also very keen to know if there is a solution for this or if there is any traction on this functionality to be added in future releases?

Huge gap for creating truly responsive layouts that can replicate CSS capabilities.

+1 Please add this functionality. It’s so simple, yet incredibly useful.

Any updates on this topic? This is really a missing feature that would solve a lot of problems and spare us to mask every image just to position it correctly inside a rectangle.

Hi, I’m checking in to see if there have been any new features added to Figma to support this or if any methods have been discovered that can resolve the alignment of images.

I’ve posted this idea once, and no one voted, but since you’ve collected some votes, we need to push it!

Please add this! Image fill is basically only half-functional without it.
