Configure Prototype Links Settings in Figma Editor

It would be great if you can pre-set the variables for viewing in the Editor where you can copy the starting FLOW Link, like a accordion showing the settings.

I create full width presentation links and this is almost impossible to share, without editing the link manually, especially if there are start-up animations, as the share button will share the wrong starting point in the animation and then the client complains that the animation wasn’t shown.

  • Now I have to copy the link from the starting FLOW area
  • Paste it into an editor
  • Change the url params “scaling=scale-down-width”
  • Add the “&hide-ui=1”
  • Copy the link & Test
  • Share the link if its correct

That’s a really roundabout way to get links out to clients? At least XD has a setup area where you can specify how the link should work and also allowed you to rename the link to something other than the filename - which in Figma doesn’t include the name of the prototype flow.
