Hey @jalbuquerque can you share some screenshots on what you’re experiencing?

Or a link to the prototype?

Also, you can use anchors to align positioning on prototypes but, the prototype needs to be set as a fixed size for that to happen. That can be done under the prototype tab when nothing is selected on the canvas.

I made an example.

When no frame is selected we should be able to globally set the frame alignment to the “prototype browser”.

This thread explains it perfectly – it’s frustrating when switching between pages which are designed to be 100% width / height (no scroll) and longer, scrolling pages.

Would it be possible to have an option where prototype mode anchors shorter pages to the top of the window? Its jarring to have them jump around.

Please! This would be super useful.

This is one thing I am seriously missing about Adobe XD… In XD my prototype presentations looked like a fully functional web app. In XD your prototypes align top and fill the width, so if your browser window is sized to match your design aspect ratio, you can’t tell it’s a prototype at all… Please make this possible Figma 😉

Any feedback on how to fix this?

Is there not a way to do this? It is confusing to present flows when everything anchors to the center…makes it look like modals or pop-ups or something when just going through flows with varied page heights. I am surprised this was designed to default to this mode of presentation and I can’t find a way to present it to model the actual UX.

Have you tried setting your page or content frame Constraints/Resizing to Top only (rather than Top & Bottom) … that seemed to fix it for me.

Can you show an example of this concept? Perhaps a before and after of what works for you? Thanks

@figma, this is a very simple thing, please make it work

Yes please, still wanting this.

Still an actual topic today!

Yup this is an issue. Need to have an option to anchor the prototype to the top as would happen in a real website or web app, rather than have Figma center each screen as if it was a powerpoint presentation.

would love to have this feature as well!

It’s so ridiculous that Figma ignores their user base, and refuses to add basic functionality like this that every one of their competitors incorporates into their apps. This is the 3rd time this week I’ve run into a problem like this, where Figma is lacking a piece of basic functionality that every other prototyping app has a solution for, followed by going into the forums and seeing that people have been asking them to fix it for 3+ years.

I highly doubt they ever will.

Is this for real? Haven’t been using Figma for a while but today I have a couple pages to prototype, and when I link a card in the first page to the second page, it jumps to the next page in the middle of it. Not in the header! I really can’t believe this is by design, I sohould be doing something wrong.

I’ve just found that “Responsive mode” in the prototype settings will lock the frames to the top, however it also locks to the left edge. Nevertheless, works better than frames bouncing all over based on the frame height.
