How Do I Add a Layer to a Group in Figma?

Adding a layer to a group in Figma is easy and an efficient way to organize your designs. Groups are a great way to keep your files organized and make sure everything is in its place.

Adding layers to a group gives you more control over how the group appears, as well as how it behaves when you select or edit it.

To add a layer to a group, simply click on the plus icon next to the group name. This will open up a menu with all of the available layers that can be added to the group.

You can then select one or multiple layers to add. Once you’ve added them, they will be nested within the group and appear at the bottom of it in the Layers panel.

You can also add layers to existing groups by selecting them from the Layers panel and dragging them into an existing group. If you have multiple layers selected, they will be added all at once. You can also drag layers from other documents into your current document if needed.

You can also create new groups by selecting multiple layers and clicking on the “Group” button in the toolbar at the top of Figma’s window.

This will create a new group containing all of those selected layers. You can then drag additional layers into this new group if needed.

Conclusion

Adding a layer to a group in Figma is simple and provides an easy way for designers to keep their design files organized and easily accessible when needed. Simply click on the plus icon next to an existing group, drag multiple layers into it, or use the “Group” button in Figma’s toolbar to quickly create new groups with selected layers.
