Check Character Limit Figma Plugin

Check Character Limit is a plugin to set character limits for text layers and highlight any layers that exceed their limits. Handy for enforcing character limits for copywriting and localization.

Usage

1. Add [CharLimit:XX] to the name of your text layers. XX is the maximum character count for the layer. For example: Description Text [CharLimit:2000].
2. Edit content and run the plugin to check your text layers (see note below).
3. Text layers that exceed their limits will be flagged in red. Check the top of your layer list to locate the flags.
4. Select a flag from the layer list and press Shift + 2 to locate it visually.
5. Edit the text layer to fit your character limit.

Note

If nothing is selected while running the plugin it will check all the text layers on the page. To check a specific layer or all layers inside a frame, select the layers or frame and run the plugin.
