Let’s dive deep into what we can do with multi-edit the new way to quickly, edit several different elements at the same time. Join me in the Multi-edit playground.

Within this Figma Playground file, we can test the new features:

  1. Multi-edit starts with selecting the primary item and then using Command-Option-A to select all similar items based on name and similar nesting. They can look different and still be named the same to match.
  2. Modifying in Multi-edit enables you to change color, rotation, size, and more
  3. Editing Text in Multi-edit enables you to change text across several frames at once.
