Import Cleanup

What Is Cleanup? Why Is This A Thing?

Sometimes with automatic (or sometimes manual) importing, you might have issues with sizing, positioning, etc. A lot of these issues are caused by this plugin being in early stages of development, so much of the friction now will soon be patched up.

Issues And Solutions

Below are some issues you might run into and their solutions.

Stretched Text

Problem: When exporting text as an image and importing it into studio as an ImageLabel, you might have stretched text.

Reason: This exists because the Figma plugin doesn’t get text content size, and instead gets the element size. Often times, the element size is different than the content size.

Solution: Before exporting the text as an image, flatten it in Figma.

Imported Stroke Value of 1

Problem: Sometimes, automatically imported elements will have the stroke property set to 1 when it’s instead of 0.

Reason: This issue has an unknown cause, but it is an issue on the plugin’s end and not yours. It will be fixed soon.

Solution: Simply set it to 0 in Studio and press Apply.

Shadows Causing Problems

Problem: Sometimes when exporting stuff with shadows, you might get position or sizing issues.

Reason: This issue has an unknown cause, but it is an issue on the plugin’s end and not yours. It will be fixed soon.

Solution: You’ll need to manually adjust your Studio Figma plugin properties to fix this.

Device Resolutions Affecting Position

Problem: When you import interface, different device resolutions (e.g. ultrawide, mobile, etc) could cause your UI to be positioned incorrectly.

Reason: This actually is an issue with UIAspectRatio constraints, and believe it or not, this is expected behavior!

Solution: You can do one of two things: either disable the aspect ratio, or set the alignment to 0.5, 0.5.

Cannot Auto-Export As TextLabel

Problem: There is no auto-export tag for TextLabel instances.

Reason: This is an oversight on my end when creating tags to begin with, and I personally also feel the friction of this issue. This will be fixed with a future update, which will include the proper tag and introduce in-house conversion options.

Solution: When exporting, export without any “type” tags. In Studio, cleanup and then use a plugin to convert the instance to a TextLabel.
