Hi there,

Thank you for your post. I’m unsure why the default padding size was set to 200px. However, have you considered implementing auto layout for the component set? This approach would give you greater control over the set.

I’m also open to other suggestions! If you have any questions or need further clarification, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thanks,
Toku

Hi. I have the same issue. When creating a component, the default vertical gab is 50, the default paddings are 100. These values are hidden since I can only see them once I create an autolayout.

I remember a few months ago, I attended a Figma webinar and they “very quickly” showed a fast short cut to change those using a mouse wheel scroll while holding on some key.

I cannot seem to find the way to reset those values back to 10px or 12px so I don’t have to manually change them every time I create a component. It’s become truly an annoyance at this point.

Thanks

@Karim_Lounes padding is a doubled nudge amount size
