Figma is a design and prototyping tool that has been embraced by developers and designers alike. It allows for easy collaboration, quick changes, and easy integration with other services. But one of the best features of Figma is its ability to break down designs into individual components.
Components are like building blocks that can be reused throughout the design process. This makes it incredibly easy to build complex designs quickly, without having to recreate individual parts from scratch. However, there may be times when you need to make a component not a component in Figma.
The first step is to select the component you want to make not a component. This can be done by either clicking on the component or by selecting it in the layers panel.
Once you have selected it, right click on it and select “Make Not A Component” from the menu that appears. This will turn your component into a single object that can no longer be used as a reusable building block.
When you need to make changes to this object, you can still do so normally as if it were any other object on the canvas. You will also notice that any changes you make to the object will no longer affect any other instances of this component which may exist on other pages or frames in your project.
Figma also allows you to make components not components even if they are part of a master component or library symbol. To do this, simply select the master component or library symbol and then right click on it and select “Make Not A Component” from the menu that appears. This will turn all of the elements inside of your master component or library symbol into single objects that cannot be reused as components anymore.
Making individual objects not components in Figma is an incredibly useful feature that allows designers more control over their designs without having to worry about breaking down complex designs into individual parts every time they need to update them. With just a few clicks, designers can quickly get back in control of their design process without having to start from scratch again.
Conclusion:
Making components not components in Figma is a simple task that can save time and effort when creating complex designs with numerous elements. All it takes is selecting an object or master component, right clicking on it, and selecting “Make Not A Component” from the menu that appears. Doing so will turn all elements inside of your master component or library symbol into single objects that cannot be reused as components anymore.
