FigmaTip Roundup 6.0 | Figma Blog (opens in new tab)
The sixth FigmaTip Roundup collects practical techniques and community-created resources for speeding up design work in Figma. It highlights a Material Design System, more precise color editing for grouped objects, and Figma’s support for smoother “squircle” corners.
Material Design System for Figma
- R. Kamushken’s user-made Material Design System includes a fast table constructor.
- The feature was introduced in version 1.3.
- The resource is available for download through Setproduct.
Editing Strokes and Fills Independently
- Figma allows designers to change the stroke color of a group without altering its fills.
- Objects in the group that have fills but no strokes remain unaffected.
- The roundup presents this as a workflow advantage over tools such as Illustrator and Sketch.
Smoother Corners with Squircles
- The post announces a feature for creating ultra-smooth corners using squircles.
- This provides an alternative to standard rounded rectangles for producing more polished interface shapes.
The roundup encourages designers to adopt these community-discovered resources and features to make everyday Figma workflows faster and more precise.
