There are several discussions on this topic on this site, but most are outdated, so I want to bring this issue back to Figma’s attention.
It would be INCREDIBLY nice to prototype across multiple pages. I’ve been using Sketch for the past 4 years but recently switched to Figma and noticed this feature is missing.
To give you a better ideas as to what I’m referring to:
I would like to place all my master components on their own components page, and separate out all of my website sections into pages for a nice clean file while still having a seamless prototype. For instance, in Sketch, my files were organized like this:
- Page 1: Login and Home page designs
- Page 2: About page and contact form
- Page 3: Symbols/Components: All local symbols
This organization is very clean and allows me to hand off specific pages to the developers or only show clients the pages that are complete.
If I use this same structure in Figma, I’m unable to prototype the site as a whole. For example if I wanted to link the Home page to the about page, I’m not able to. This also means that my imported Sketch files are basically useless.
I know there’s going to be a learning curve when adopting a new software, but I’m growing incredibly frustrated with the amount of features that are “missing” compared to sketch or are just flat out bugs.
