Grainy textures are a great way to add an extra layer of design to your Figma designs. They can be used to create a more realistic look and feel, or simply as a way to add some interest or detail. But how do you actually add grainy texture in Figma?
The first step is to select the layer you want to add the grainy texture to. You can do this by clicking on the layer, or by selecting it from the Layers panel on the left-hand side.
Once you’ve selected your layer, select “Filter” from the top menu bar and then “Noise” from the drop-down menu. You will then be presented with several options for noise type, and how much noise you would like your layer to have.
Once you’ve set up your noise settings, click “Apply” and your texture will be applied to the layer. If you want further control over how your texture looks, you can adjust its opacity and blend mode in the Visual Properties panel on the right-hand side of Figma. For example, if you want your texture to look more subtle, try changing its blend mode from Normal to Multiply or Overlay, which will reduce its opacity without completely removing it.
You can also use Figma’s Mask tool to create more complex grainy textures for specific areas of your design. To do this, first select the area where you want the texture applied, then open up Mask mode (by clicking on the mask icon in the top menu bar) and choose “Noise” from the drop-down menu. As before, you will be presented with several options for noise type and intensity – adjust these until you get a grainy texture that looks just right for your design.
Conclusion: Adding grainy textures in Figma is a great way to add an extra level of detail and realism to your designs – all it takes is a few clicks! Selecting a layer in Figma, adding Noise under Filter mode in top menu bar should give access to various options for noise types and intensity which can then be further adjusted using Visual Properties panel on right-hand side or using Mask tool for more complex textures. With these simple steps it’s easy to create beautiful grainy textures within Figma.
