A new plugin that generates smooth transitions between two shapes by creating intermediate states.

Miggi shows a wildly creative application of boolean groups to vector networks.

Really well-made video tutorial explaining masks in Figma: ​“We answer questions such as: What is a mask? How does it work? How do you use it in Figma? We demonstrate advanced usage and share real examples from our projects.”

Quick Tracing easily traces and converts images into vector shapes directly within Figma.

Vijay Verma made a tiny plugin to simplify the vector editing workflow when working on illustrations. Here is how it started: ​“After releasing UI3, people have been complaining that the boolean task is a bit hard to find. So, I thought, why not create a tiny plugin with some of the most commonly used options for vector work?”

The Lil’ tool for creating pixel-perfect icons in a 16×16 grid, all in vector format.

“SVG Pattern Builder allows you to create, customize, and download unique animated SVG patterns for your web and design projects. Great for Figma, Framer, Webflow and video projects.” Made by Meng To from Design Code with a lot of help from Claude AI.

Miggi applies the new ​“Remove background” AI feature, a vector mask outlining the shape, a hidden ​“Show mask outlines” command (that I didn’t know about!), and a simple prototype to create a popping out head avatar.

An important update to the plugin I featured just a couple of weeks ago — now you can curve your text along any path you draw!

Turns any image into a cool line pattern — an alternative to the Emboss lines plugin.

Stumbled upon this old blog post from 2019 by Alex Harri, one of the engineers behind Figma’s Vector Networks. Fascinatingly deep dive! ​“This post can be thought of as an introduction to a really interesting problem space, and as a resource for people interested in making use of some aspects of Vector Networks for future applications. I hope it succeeds in providing value to both developers being introduced to new concepts and ideas, and to designers interested in learning more about the tool they know and love.”

A nifty plugin for quickly snapping your selected objects to the pixel grid by rounding values. Works with X and Y values, width and height, corner radius, font size, and position of all anchor points.

I didn’t know Cmd-clicking on the nodes of the shape releases the handles — a slick tip from Miggi!

Select two vector shapes and specify how many steps to create between them.

I’ve been using it for years but never shared it before! Great for putting any objects or text on a path.

Evan Wallace, a co-founder of Figma, made this niche plugin 4 years ago, and I just discovered it?! ​“This plugin lets you edit the fill rules of a vector object. Fill rules determine which parts of a vector outline are filled. The fill rules have different behavior when a vector outline overlaps. Why is this useful? Certain export formats (e.g. TrueType fonts, Android VectorDrawable) only support the non-zero fill rule. You can use this plugin to manually convert even-odd to non-zero to make the exporters for these formats work.”

“When you have multiple vertices selected in vector edit mode, you can now type Mixed + [value] into the X or Y input box to add the same value to each vertex.”

Lauren Andres discovers an older feature ​“delete and heal” to create smoother vector lines.

Speaking of aligning layers, individual vector nodes can also be aligned or evenly distributed.
