FigSheets creates a spreadsheet for generating designs, right in Figma. It’ll help you create and store multiple versions of a design without the error-prone copying and pasting OR detatching instances when you need to change one keyword or layer.
Using FigSheets is simple:
1. Create a sheet; specify the number of layers, keywords, or entire blocks of content you want to swap out of a template.
2. Add your Master Template to the “MASTER” cell (the blue tabbed cell). This is the design you’ll create alternate versions of.
3. Add the layers, content, or keywords in the appropriately labeled red-tabbed cells.
4. Add the “Override” information in those red tabs. When you “Sync” the sheet, FigSheets will look for the layer names or keywords to create new versions of your Master.
5. Hit “Sync!” Alternate versions should appear like magic.
Tip: If you want to generate Components, just make your Master Template a Component or Instance. The components will inherit the name of the Master Template and append the text in the purple “RESULT” tab (which you can rename).
