I love the implementation of Figma Draw! Please keep adding more functionality, because I would love to keep using Figma instead of having to pull in elements from Adobe Illustrator! Here’s my feature request:

Can you add more detailed point manipulation tools in Figma Draw, such as the ability to scale, rotate, transform individual vector points in concert each other relative to a custom transform origin point?


This process is relatively simple in Illustrator currently. I just select my points, select the Scale tool, set my origin point, and then drag/scale. Each point is transformed an equal amount, its perfect. This capability is super helpful for icon and logo design.  

In Figma currently (unless I’m missing something) this is a very manual process: I have to select a vector point, and then key in an X (trial and error that value) and then do it for the other point, which is extremely cumbersome compared to most vector editors.

Hey ​@Ryan_Brown1, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m really glad to hear you’re enjoying Figma Draw. 

 

Great news: this is something the team has been actively working on, part of what you’re asking for has just shipped 🎉
We are adding bounding boxes to vector edit mode. Now while editing vectors, selecting multiple vector points will create a bounding box that you can use to resize, rotate, or translate your selected points.

Previously, you had no mechanism through which to resize or rotate multiple vector points at once, so this update directly addresses what you called out.

If you want to dig into how it works, this Help Center article walks through it: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039957634-Edit-vector-layers.

 

That said, the ability to set an origin point in vector edit mode isn’t supported yet. I’ll make sure to pass along your use case around scaling/rotating multiple vector points in relation to a custom origin point while in vector edit mode to the team for internal consideration.

 

Thank you again for sharing this use case!

@Gayani_S 

This is such a helpful addition to Figma Draw, and to me it seems very well executed!

 

Would love to see the selected vector point origin implemented in the future!
