How to use exactly auto layout? – Ask the community


Hi guys, i was looking for a Figma tutorial. During the creation of a landing page, the man is creating a series of autolayout frame and than, he put inside others one. This workflow is a bit messy, so i was wondering, why just arrange in the proper position the elements and than create auto layout for each field ? Moreover i’m trying to figure out if autolayout is necessary and is required to work in an industry workflow, sometimes it seems pointless…

I’will attach a screenshot

Thanks for the attention !

Hard to say how the workflow can be improved without seeing it. But I think your idea makes sense.

Auto layout allows you to create responsive layouts that would adapt to any screen size and content size. That’s why it’s useful.

Hi Gleb thanks a lot for your help.

Lets get right on it, i’m going to attach other two screenshots, hopin it could help.
As you can see, he first created the containers and than created the texts and CTA, but does it work also if you create the text and other elements arranging in to the space and than create auto layout.

Moreover, i know auto layout is handy for responsive design, likewise for ipad or iphone version you must tweak content and not only shrink it, so is like doing another time the work, in this case you should not use auto layout, am i wrong ?

Thanks a lot !
