Question 1

What is the purpose of 'Slices' in Figma's export process?

To define specific areas of a design for export
To create animated transitions between frames
To organize design files into separate artboards
To apply filters and effects to design elements

Explanation:

Slices in Figma allow you to select and export specific portions of your design, rather than exporting an entire frame or artboard.

Question 2

What Figma feature helps ensure that all team members are using the latest version of your Design System components?

Version history
Library updates
Comments and feedback
Plugins for version control

Explanation:

When you make changes to your Design System library in Figma, other users will receive notifications about the updates, and they can choose to accept and apply these changes to their projects.

Question 3

In Figma's prototyping, what does the 'Preserve scroll position' setting achieve when transitioning between frames?

It maintains the user's scroll position from the previous frame in the prototype.
It automatically scrolls the user to a specific element on the new frame.
It disables scrolling entirely on the new frame.
It resets the scroll position to the top of the new frame.

Explanation:

This setting ensures a seamless transition for prototypes with scrollable content, mimicking how a user would naturally continue browsing from their previous position.

Question 4

Which team permission level in Figma allows editing of design files?

View Only
Can Comment
Can Edit
Can Share

Explanation:

The 'Can Edit' permission level in Figma grants users the ability to directly modify design files.

Question 5

How do you create a new Variant for an existing Component in Figma?

Duplicate the component and rename it.
Use the 'Create Variant' button in the Design panel.
Right-click on the component and select 'Create Variant.'
Drag and drop a new layer onto the component.

Explanation:

To create a new variant, select the master component, and in the Design panel, click on the '+' button next to the component's name. This ensures the new variant remains linked to the master component.

Question 6

Which of these integrations allows you to receive design update notifications in a Slack channel?

Figma's built-in Slack integration
Third-party integration services like Zapier
Manually sharing Figma links in Slack
Setting up email notifications forwarded to Slack

Explanation:

Figma offers a direct integration with Slack, enabling you to connect specific Figma files or projects to Slack channels for automated update notifications.

Question 7

In Figma's text editing, what does the 'Text Align' option control?

The vertical spacing between lines of text.
The horizontal position of text within its bounding box.
The angle or slant of the text characters.
The overall width of the text box.

Explanation:

The 'Text Align' option in Figma determines how the text block aligns itself horizontally within its container, offering options like left, center, and right alignment.

Question 8

How are overlays typically positioned in relation to the content they appear over in Figma prototypes?

They are placed on the same layer as the underlying content.
They are placed on a layer above the content and use absolute positioning.
They are grouped with the content they are related to.
They are placed on a separate page within the Figma file.

Explanation:

Overlays need to appear on top of other elements. Absolute positioning relative to the frame ensures they stay in the intended location regardless of the content below.

Question 9

What happens to an element with 'Fixed' resizing settings when its parent frame's size is changed?

It scales proportionally with the parent frame.
It maintains its original size and position.
It stretches horizontally but maintains its height.
It shrinks proportionally with the parent frame.

Explanation:

Choosing 'Fixed' as the resizing option for an element ensures that it remains unaffected by any changes to its parent frame's dimensions, keeping its size and position constant.

Question 10

What does the Content Reel plugin primarily help you with?

Generating realistic placeholder images
Creating animated prototypes
Populating designs with dummy text and content
Building design systems and component libraries

Explanation:

Content Reel is used to quickly fill your Figma designs with realistic placeholder text, images, and other content types.

Question 11

In Figma, which Boolean operation combines two or more shapes to create a single, merged shape?

Union
Subtract
Intersect
Exclude

Explanation:

The Union operation in Figma combines the selected shapes, removing any overlapping areas to create one unified shape.

Question 12

Which Figma feature is essential for creating responsive designs that adapt to various screen sizes?

Components
Prototyping
Auto Layout
Plugins

Explanation:

Auto Layout in Figma allows you to define how elements resize and reposition automatically within a frame as its content changes or it's resized, making it crucial for responsive design.

Question 13

Which resizing option in Figma would you use to ensure an image scales proportionally when its parent frame is resized?

Fixed width and height
Scale
Left and Right constraints only
Top and Bottom constraints only

Explanation:

Choosing the 'Scale' resizing option in Figma ensures that an element, such as an image, maintains its aspect ratio and scales proportionally as its parent frame is resized.

Question 14

In Auto Layout, what is the function of the 'Spacing' property?

It controls the distance between the frame's border and its content.
It determines the space between elements arranged within the frame.
It sets the margin around the frame itself.
It adjusts the size of the frame's background image.

Explanation:

The 'Spacing' property in Auto Layout governs the amount of space that is automatically maintained between elements placed inside an Auto Layout frame.

Question 15

In Figma, what does setting an export format to 'PDF' preserve?

Animation states
Prototype interactions
Vector shapes and text
Component properties

Explanation:

Exporting as PDF in Figma maintains the vector nature of shapes and text, ensuring scalability without loss of quality. However, it does not preserve interactive elements like animations or prototypes.
