Steps

  1. Go to the bottom section of the toolbar and click the Frame icon to activate the Frame tool.
  2. Click anywhere on the design canvas to create the frame at your chosen position.
  3. Use the handles to resize the frame by grabbing and dragging them until you reach your desired shape and size.
  4. Once all steps are complete, the frame is generated and added to your design canvas ready for use.

📌 Why this matters

Frames are the core building blocks of every Figma design, acting as containers for screens, components, and layouts. Knowing how to quickly create and resize a frame lets designers structure their workspace efficiently from the very first step. This skill is essential for anyone building UI mockups, prototypes, or design systems in Figma. Mastering frame creation accelerates the entire design workflow and reduces time spent on manual layout adjustments.
