InVision and Figma are two of the most popular design tools on the market. They both offer a wide range of features to help designers create amazing visuals for their projects.
However, one question that many designers have is whether or not it is possible to import projects from InVision into Figma. The answer is yes – but with a few caveats.
In order to import an InVision project into Figma, you must first export it as an SVG file. This can be done by going to the ‘Export’ tab in the InVision project editor, and selecting ‘SVG’ as your file type. Once you have exported your project as an SVG file, you can then upload it directly into Figma using the ‘Upload’ button in the top-right corner of the screen.
Once your project has been uploaded, you will need to make sure that all of your layers and objects have been scaled properly for Figma. As InVision and Figma have different scaling methods, some objects may appear larger or smaller than they were originally intended when viewed in Figma. To ensure that everything looks correct, you may need to manually adjust the size of each object.
In addition to scaling issues, there are also some other considerations when importing designs from InVision into Figma. For example, any text layers or symbols created in InVision will not be imported automatically – instead they must be recreated manually in Figma using its text and symbols tools. Similarly, any layers or objects which were not exported as part of the SVG file will also need to be recreated manually.
Conclusion:
So while it is possible to import projects from InVision into Figma, there are a few things that designers should keep in mind before doing so – namely scaling issues and manual recreation of text layers and symbols. If these considerations are taken care of properly however, it is relatively easy for designers to make use of both tools for their projects.
