  • In this video I will be using variants and properties to create a fully responsive navigation bar for a mobile app. The recent update to the Figma components makes this much easier.

    What kind of icons were u using here? Cause it seems that many people have the problem that the colors for the icons are not switching correctly. Using the active toggle only switches the text color. The icons stay in its original color state.

      I found it! All the icon names (not the icon components) have to be the same, so the system can recognize it when you change the icon instances.
      1:57 here, he names all the icon 'vector' before naming the icon components.

  • @marvinromerox

    I followed this tutorial and had no problems until I got to the creation of the navigation bar. When I duplicate my icon and attempt to change the icon, it changes it with the original color of the component instead of the inactive color. It says that it is not active, but it doesn't have the inactive color, it has the original color. So when I turn the active switch on/off, the icon doesn't change color, only the text does. Any ideas?

    • @marvinromerox
      @marvinromerox 6 місяців тому +1

      Nevermind, I found the issue. I was using icons from another library that I published to my project. I never detached the instances and therefore was not using pure icons. Also, to be safe, I outlined the stroke for all icons to avoid any stroke/fill inconsistencies and made them all identical. I used the same icons, ,just detached the instances before doing anything.

    Hello, thank you for this video. I have a problem, however :( I don't see the "Icon" property for the nav_item instance, i only see the Text property. Is this because i have a free version of Figma?

    • @TheSmilione
      @TheSmilione Рік тому

      I think i found the solution to the problem: navigate to each member of the nav_item component and set 'Apply instance swap property', respectively 'Apply text property'. I find this really twisted and i don't understand why this extra-step is needed, maybe someone can share the reasoning behind this.

      Yes, you can apply it from the parent component as well, but I find that to be even more confusing.
