Useful shortcuts to toggle between Design, Prototype, and Inspect panels.
⌨️ Figma Tip: use Shift-E to quickly toggle between the Design and Prototype tabs, or ⌥8 for Design, ⌥9 for Prototype, and ⌥0 for Inspect.

We've added 8 more layouts (UK, SE, FI, DK, NO, IT, ES, LATAM) so more folks can work faster in @Figma.
It's been fun to dig into ⌨️ quirks with @mwichary @dorothchen @SulaYang1 + Rachel Miller!

Super useful tip: double-click on the icon of an object in the Layers panel to jump to it. (Double-clicking on a name will trigger renaming.)
No fucking way. I’ve just learned that if you double click the Frame/Autolayout/text (whatever it is) icon in the layers panel, Figma will jump to it. 🤯 pic.twitter.com/HmgWoHHCYQ

Middle-clicking or ⌘-clicking on the hyperlink goes directly to the target.
Did you know you can now middle-click on a @figma hyperlink to directly jump to target?

Also If you don't like clicking on the middle mouse button you can also ⌘click on the hyperlink pic.twitter.com/k0TdZWUesO
That’s a pretty badass collection of shortcuts — I didn’t know most of them!
New keyboard shortcuts to make backward and forward actions easier in FigJam. Bring forward: ⌘-]

or Ctrl-[
, send to back: [
.
You can press Shift while clicking on individual publishing checkboxes to select ranges. You’re now able to open library files from the Libraries modal.

⇧A: Add Auto Layout (⌥⇧A to remove)
⌥L: Collapse layers
⇧⏎: Select parent (⏎ to select children)
⌥W/A/S/D: Align top/left/bottom/right
⌘K: Create link from text
Figma set up figma.new and figjam.new domains as shortcuts for creating new files.

A few things I wish I had known earlier on for working in @figmadesign—I hope one or more of these can be helpful to someone out there! 🙏

1) Hold ⌘ + drag a frame to resize it to ignore any of the constraints set for the items inside. ↔️
🔥 @figmadesign tip — on a Mac you can set custom Keyboard shortcuts for your fav Figma Plugins!
— Dave Williames (@DavidWilliames) September 4, 2019
Under System preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts; add Figma and the name of the plugin (as it appears in the menu bar), and whatever shortcut you want.🥳 #FigmaTip pic.twitter.com/xurtBIQtmg
