I wondered how they ensure that the output is accessible, because in the description I only found "#Accessibility features" under "Ready for production", nothing else.
So I wrote them an email asking to elaborate how they tackled #a11y for their product. Eagerly anticipating their answer!
Je trouve ça fou que #figma ne prenne pas en compte les unités relatives.
Genre j'ai un conteneur en auto-layout et je veux que ses enfants fasse 50% chacun.
Bah c'est pas possible apparemment.
Tried to open two Figma projects using Firefox. Found it strange that it was taking too long to load. Decided to open Brave and both projects opened instantly.
Am I the only one experiencing this? #Figma#Firefox
just got my #Figma creator micro, i’m curious to see what people have mapped their keys to. i’m having trouble getting into the swing of things since my hands are already on the keyboard and it’s muscle memory to just hit a single keystroke, so any advanced macros?
I just tried a few AI plugins for #figma and they were all bad. This domain might be a great test for #LLMs . I predict these failings are unlikely to be fixed any time soon:
Layout was poor
They can't create components
Laughably complex object hierarchies (everything was enclosed in a frame)
Of course things will improve, but I expect fixing these deep structural problems are a function of many new constraints, likely beyond what today's LLMs are actually capable of. @simon ?
Any recommendations of software for Android tablets to mock up web UIs? I have an Android device with a stylus, so I would like to use that instead of the mouse of my PC.
Large animations can easily be highly distractive for folks with #ADHD. Being able to pause them individually doesn't make things much better, especially if reloading the page starts them all over again.
It's really disappointing to see a design-focused company like #Figma use that type of purely gratuitous graphics on their #Config conference website, and do so without offering a way to disable them all at once across the site.
That’s a sad lack of consideration for true #A11Y. 🙁🤨🤬
I'm happy to say that ever since I started using Flatpak's desktop #Penpot package, its become one of my favorite programs and I use it every day day now. And it just got a slick new upgrade. So now I finally have a #clojure application in my daily repertoire.
Way better than #Figma, which has become total garbage ever since #Adobe bought it.
If you're a fan of #penpot , and you want to see the latest developments, don't forget you can follow the short video updates from their own #peertube account directly from #mastodon @penpot_app
You know how it is: You start writing one #blog article, but while writing you come up with an idea for another one. And here it is, how to cancel a #figma subscription:
While I'm kinda happy #Adobe's purchase of #Figma didn't go through (I like that there's some competition) I do think there's an opportunity for Adobe to build a Figma-like application that leans more heavily towards graphic design and less toward web/digital product design. Give us Illustrator-class vector tools, better PDF exporting, awareness of inks, etc.
Say I have a path with straight lines, I want to turn one corner into an arc of a circle. Are there any vector tools that allow me to easily do that, with a simple input of the circle radius (e.g. drag up & down to increase & decrease the radius)?
