Styler

With Styler, managing multiple styles at once is made easy by modifying layer properties. You can create, rename, remove, or update styles, and even extract them from one file to another. The plugin allows you to generate styles from chosen layers, or you can detach already existing styles.

Batch Styler

Batch Styler is a powerful Figma plugin that allows you to change multiple text and color styles simultaneously.

With just a few clicks, you can modify the values of multiple styles at once, instead of going through the process of changing each style individually. Whether you need to change 2 or 30 text styles, Batch Styler can help you easily switch from one font family to another, while keeping all font weights and other style attributes intact.

Say goodbye to the tedious task of changing styles one by one, and hello to more efficient design workflows with Batch Styler.

Batch Styler also makes it easy to update all color styles based on the same hue value. Simply make the change to one color style, and Batch Styler will automatically update all other color styles that are based on the same hue value. This saves you time and ensures consistency in your design.

Features:

  • Batch change color styles including hue, saturation, lightness, alpha, and hex values
  • Batch changes typography styles such as font family, font weight, line height, and letter spacing
  • Batch deletes multiple styles at once
  • Batch renames styles with ease
  • Edit descriptions of styles in bulk

Quick actions

With support for Figma’s Quick Actions, generating text using the Lorem Ipsum plugin is even more convenient. By using the keyboard shortcut (cmnd + / (on Mac), or ctrl + / (on Windows), you can bring up the actions bar, type “Lorem Ipsum,” and press tab to progress to select the type and count of text you want to generate. This saves you time by allowing you to generate text without opening the plugin window.

Wireframe

The Wireframe plugin is a popular and free library available for anyone to use. With this plugin, you can easily create beautiful wireframes, user flows, prototypes, and basic structures directly in Figma without the need for additional kits, files, or skills. All wireframes are provided under a creative commons license, and since they are SVG files, they can be easily edited to suit your needs. Simply drag and drop the wireframes into your Figma project and start designing. With this plugin, you can easily manage all your wireframing and prototyping activities to create professional and visually appealing designs.

The “Wireframe Plugin” offers several benefits for you and your team, including:
