🎨 Figma Trick You (Probably) Didn’t Know
Hold ⌘ (or Ctrl) + hover over any element → click once.
Boom 💥 you just selected through layers without opening the sidebar jungle.
Perfect for cleaning messy frames like a boss.
@Ashik Prottoy isn't that the basic?
@Ashik Prottoy isn't that the most basic movement you could do in Figma?

@Bram Dekkers @Ashik Prottoy lol 😂 sharp reply
@Ashik Prottoy Couldn't live without this
@Alex Brown Same here!
@Ashik Prottoy Recently discovered this is applicable to illustrator too!!
@Anita Autorino Wow never knew that
@Ashik Prottoy It is insane how so many people still dont know that. I ran into a UX researcher who didnt know this
@Ashik Prottoy an even better one is resizing frames while holding ⌘, which ignores scale and alignment settings of all objects within the frame.
