How Do You Drag Objects in Figma?

Figma is a powerful design tool used by many web and graphic designers to create high quality visuals. It has an intuitive user interface and allows users to easily drag and drop objects from one area of the canvas to another. But, how do you drag objects in Figma?

The process of dragging objects in Figma is quite straightforward. First, select the objects that you want to move by either clicking on them individually or using the selection tool.

Once selected, click on the object and hold down your mouse button as you drag it across your canvas. You can also use arrow keys on your keyboard to move the objects if you prefer. Additionally, if you want to move multiple objects at once, you can use the “Shift” key while selecting them so they all move together.

When dragging an object, there are several options available for changing its size or shape. You can resize an object by dragging one of its handles located in its corners or sides. Alternatively, if you want a more precise method of resizing an object, you can use the “Scale” tool which allows you to manually enter exact dimensions for resizing an object.

You also have the ability to rotate or skew an object if desired. To do this simply select it and then hover your mouse over any corner of the bounding box until it changes into a curved double-arrow icon (indicating that it is ready for rotation). Then click-and-drag in either direction around the origin point (the center of the bounding box) until it has reached your desired angle.

Conclusion:

In summary, dragging objects in Figma is very simple and intuitive with a few basic steps. All you need to do is select the object(s), click-and-drag them across your canvas using either your mouse or arrow keys on your keyboard. You also have options available for resizing, scaling and rotating these objects according to your needs.
