Wrapping text in a design helps to fit content neatly within a given space, improving readability and layout consistency. In this guide, we will help you wrap text in Figma through a demonstration to get you covered.
Wrap Text in Figma
- Navigate to Figma and sign in with your credentials. Access the design file you’re working on from Recently viewed. If you haven’t started yet, click on the New design file.
- After the new or existing design is loaded, select the text box you want to wrap the text. For demonstration, we added a new text box by pressing T and typing in the text.
- If you notice the Text section of the Design tab, the text box is set to Auto width.
- If you keep adding text, the size of the text box increases, as shown below.
- However, if you set the text box to the Fixed size and type text, the size doesn’t increase. Instead, the text overflows the text box, successfully wrapping the contents within it.
- When you adjust the text box dimensions, the text automatically wraps, giving a clearer view of how it adapts.
Wrapping Up
Congratulations on learning how to wrap text in Figma!
While wrapping text has its benefits, it isn’t ideal in all situations. Hence, we suggest you know your text requirements and set it to Auto height/width or Fixed size. Now that you’ve learned these steps, you can easily manage your text layout and improve your designs.
