Stop rebuilding the very same Figma interactions. Copy an interaction (see guide image, there's a trick to it - you have to target the very very left hand side of the interaction detail - I know, it's weird), select a target frame (by it's frame label) and then just paste. Should find the same object as the source you copied the interaction from. > Copy the interaction > Select a target frame, by it's label > Paste and chill Dear Figma, this has to get easier going forward. The behaviour/action supports interaction consistency and efficiency. Roadmap?

Knowing me you’re probably wondering what’s going on here, right?  🤯 Is Michal sharing Figma plugins now, for real? Well, check out the post first and you’ll quickly understand. I see a big problem in the way people are learning design right now, and if I don’t do something, the paid “design tool advocates” won’t do anything for sure. They like the status quo and their socks and laptop stickers too much. So time for a small revolution of going back to the basics and embracing DESIGN, not FOMO stuff like plugins. I will share MORE from this series with you soon. #ux #uitips #ui

Does your CTA actually negatively impacts the way you talk to customers? Yes, it's true the answer. If your website or portfolio lacks a strong CTA. Your performance matrix is seriously impacted. → Rates of conversation → Length of task Use an easily understood straightforward CTA to get overcome this issue. PS: LinkedIn recently switched their main CTA from "Open to" to "I want to". Your thoughts? I am eager to know. ---------------------------- I am UX Designer, I provide content on FIGMA that discuss both design and increasing productivity.

🔥Hot Take: Figma is NOT the source of truth for your product! Surprised? Let me explain. Figma is a fantastic tool for creating flows, visual designs, and prototypes. But remember, it's not the source of truth for your product - your product is! 🎯 Many designers maintain a specific Figma file with all product screens, thinking it's the source of truth. But this approach adds extra steps and time to the design process. 🕰️ Instead, if you want to understand your product better, use it. It's the real source of truth. 🌟 Do you agree?

Hey LinkedIn fam! Today, I crafted something special: the Juice UI site using Figma. Aiming for a UI that's not just visually appealing but also user-friendly. And you know what? I also took the opportunity to level up my Figma game by experimenting with some of their animated tools. One thing I'm particularly excited about is the carousel feature I implemented. It adds such a cool touch to the site and was a great chance for me to grow and learn. Being able to integrate these new tools into my design process opens up so many possibilities for future projects.

Following up on my previous post about the company asking for Figma links for recent 2 projects with design guidelines.😒 The screenshot below was sent to me by one of my connections and shows the company is asking for everything from user personas to prototypes, but not in presentation format but as Figma file links.🤦🏻♀️ I am saddened to see how many companies take advantage of candidates to use their design without their consent. All these companies need to be exposed so we can be safe.🙌🏻 Beware of such companies! #ux #ui #job #company #linkedin #linkedinconnections

"Easily Convert Prototypes to GIFs for Your Portfolio!" Hey everyone! 👋 Lately, I've been jazzing up my portfolio, and I wanted to add some GIFs of my prototypes. The journey was a bit rocky, though. I tried various plugins in Figma, but most asked for money or crashed on me. 😬😱😭 But here's the good part: I found a super user-friendly website called GIFCap! 🌟 While it's not perfect quality, it's the best solution I've got so far. 😁 I thought I'd share this nifty tool with you all in case you're in the same boat. 🚣 If you know of a better way, please share it with me. 🤔😊 Take a peek at my video to see how it works. Let's make our portfolios shine with ease! 💫 #PortfolioTips #PrototypesToGIFs #DesignHacks #GIFCap #SimplifyDesign #UXdesign #UI #UX

Do you also experience staring at the blank frame on Figma for a long time when you start designing from scratch? Given the time crunch you don't really know where to start. You start designing but then you feel unsatisfied of the first outcome. Feeling that it didn't look good as how you imagined. One thing that helps me is by gathering references first. References are powerful as it helps you get a clearer outcome visually of what you're trying to make. Might be common sense but reality is when I was still starting out in designing UI, I mostly depended on my design eye. Thinking that if it's okay to me it's okay to everyone too, but that's not always the case. I often found myself referencing after I've designed something already then get too lazy to design a new one because I already like what I've made. Gather references--first. Getting good references is crucial too 'cause that where you base your design from. Reference from real live websites. Reference from world class designs that have impact. If you think you can't do what they can do yet, it's still good to know that you want to reach that level of skill in the future. Eventually, you'll find yourself improving a lot and slowly reach the level of those you reference from because you've set a standard in yourself. #ui #ux #uidesign #uxdesign #uiux
