Grid for new FigJam sections


Robert_Bennett

I’m really liking the new sections in FigJam (which I used to have to make manually with shapes) but I’ve noticed that the normal grid dots don’t seem to show up within the sections which makes it tough to align items within them that are farther apart (in my case vertically stacked sections).

Would it be possible to get these added back in? Or at least some way to use/create guides (similar to those in most photo/graphics editing software)?

Related Post: Grid for new FigJam sections

I enjoy using Sections in FigJam to keep various flows organized. I do have an issue with the Sections though… they are opaque and cover up the dot grid, which I am using constantly for alignment and planning what I am laying out.

My current workaround is to create a flow and then create a Section to contain it AFTER it is completed. Then, if I need to edit the flow, I move the Section away, make the edits and move the Section back again.

It would be much simpler and more straightforward if the dot grid would be able to be shown above the Section or if the Section fill was able to be transparent.

Has anyone come up with a solution for managing these opaque Sections?

Please sort this. My team struggles to diagram and keep things aligned once we add some organisation to a FigJam board.
