How to detect when user has selected a layer when plugin is running

[Zack_Hong]

Hi, i want my plugin to detect when I select a layer and enable a button in my menu like so:

What sort of event should I be listening for, and where should my handler be implemented ie inside my code.js or the script tag inside my ui.html?

In code.js:

Instantly access figma.currentPage.selection nodes

Use the selectionchange event in figma.on. figma.on("selectionchange", () => { //Your code })

Then use postMessage and get it in ui.html

Please see the developer documentation:

postMessage | Plugin API
