- Figma designers preparing interfaces for translation
- Worth noticing
- It treats hug and fixed text nodes differently and marks missing-font cases as unmeasurable instead of estimating.
Field notes
The described workflow scans either a Figma page or a selection against a target language, then streams findings with links back to the affected layers. Its four verdicts include an explicit “Un-measurable” state, and the page says missing fonts are flagged rather than guessed. Translation previews can be imported from JSON or CSV and reverted in one step; the plugin itself is described as coming soon to Figma Community.
