FigPals: Fun Way to Work Together<\/h4>\n<p>FigPals, a tiny feature that allows users to add adorable icons to their cursors, was introduced by Figma. These icons facilitate teamwork by making it clearer who is responsible for what. It also adds enjoyment to teamwork.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2527\" src=\"https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/03.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/03.png 1200w, https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/03-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>How It Works:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When multiple people are working on a project, each person can pick a different FigPal.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These icons move with the cursor, making it easier to follow actions in real-time.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It adds a playful element to collaboration, improving engagement in team projects.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>2. Collapse Layers for a Cleaner View<\/h4>\n<p>The numerous layers in Figma designs can cause chaos. Users may now conceal excess layers and maintain a tidy desktop with the Collapse Layers functionality. You can find what you need more easily as a result.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2528\" src=\"https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/04.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/04.png 1200w, https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/04-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>How It Works:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the Layers panel, users can right-click and choose \u201cCollapse All\u201d to hide unnecessary layers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This helps organize files better, especially in large projects.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Designers can focus on important elements without scrolling through long lists of layers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>3. Change Corner Shape Easily<\/h4>\n<p>Inline Corner Radius Controls have been added to Figma. This implies that you may now modify a shape&#8217;s roundness right in the settings window. Now, creating rounded, smooth shapes is much simpler.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2530\" src=\"https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/05.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/05.png 1200w, https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/05-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How It Works:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Select any rectangle or shape with corners.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use the new corner radius option in the properties panel to adjust roundness.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can now see changes immediately without opening a separate settings window.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This makes designing rounded shapes quicker and more precise.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>4. Quick Access to Effects and Styles<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Figma will now open the settings immediately when you add grids, effects, or fills. Time is saved and fewer clicks are made thanks to the Auto Flyouts feature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2533\" src=\"https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/06.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/06.png 1200w, https:\/\/engineersahab.com\/project\/engineersahabedu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/06-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>How It Works:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you add a shadow, gradient, or grid, Figma will instantly open the settings for it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of manually clicking on the effect to edit it, the options appear automatically.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This reduces the number of steps and makes it easier to apply styling quickly.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>5. UI3 is Coming: A New Look for Figma<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Figma has revealed that UI3, a new design interface, will be live on April 30, 2025.
