    Hey guys!
    Created another video to further streamline the typography process, and it also allows you to change line heights for headings, and font families for the typescale easily (instead of doing it manually)

    Thanks, man. Making the jump from years of using Sketch and I am blown away by how much easier it is to create type styles using these plugins.

    Great tutorial. When making the styles bold (6:20) how do I get the typography sidebar to show the weight pulldown? Do I need to unlink the style? Thank you. Ahhh never mind, you explain it at (9:02) :)

    Hello
    Please can you give me more details about the type scale plugin? I can't find it in my figma community,checked my plugins through but this particular one you used is not available
    Is it okay to use others while I'm learning with this playlist?

  • @andrewkarnauhov8430
    @andrewkarnauhov8430 Před 10 měsíci

    Could you explain how to deal with design systems if your app is multilingual? It means that need to create a separate text style for each language what else better do if we use the updated Figma with all the new feature it has.

  • @gokujmo

    Thank yo so much for providing us such a brilliant thing ❤️. I never knew that figma cmnd or ctrl + b for bold. 😁. I think couple of things we have to do that manually. For instance, the plugin is giving us only one line height for every scale. Sometime we need more for body or extra small and less for heading.

    • @AMDesignAndDev
      @AMDesignAndDev  Před 2 lety

      Yup

    how u mange lineheight

  • @sharpirate2904
    @sharpirate2904 Před 2 lety +2

    Do you think it's a good idea to round the line height to the 8pt grid instead of doing 1.2?

    • @AMDesignAndDev
      @AMDesignAndDev  Před 2 lety +1

      Yes, that is better from a grid perspective, but minor compromises are made on consistency, Which I think is fine

  • @davidokunlola1148
    @davidokunlola1148 Před 2 lety

    Great video AM but it's very hard navigating around the updated typescale plugin
    Compare to when you did video

    • @mohammadbrzbrz72
      @mohammadbrzbrz72 Před 8 měsíci

      It is simple.
      The only thing you need after searching for the plugin name is the name of the creator.
      For example:
      Typography Style Guide plugin => Hiroki Tani
      Do not look at the logo

  • @jinuspotify2281
    @jinuspotify2281 Před 2 lety +1

    how do we plan the typography for a mobile application in type scale plugin , what is the base size we should take?

    • @AMDesignAndDev
      @AMDesignAndDev  Před 2 lety

      Depends on the app, but I would say 14-16 is a good bet.
      I would probably stick to 16px for the base size for most apps.

    hi, lets say i copy my design system to an other project and i want to change the whole font family....is there an easy way to do that...?

    • @AMDesignAndDev
      @AMDesignAndDev  Před 2 lety +1

      You can do that with the batch styler plugin.

  • @roter13
    @roter13 Před rokem +1

    I don't understand why no tutorial is showing how to go from desktop to mobile size. No is explaining how to do that.

    • @AMDesignAndDev
      @AMDesignAndDev  Před rokem

      Probably because those are two separate things. For mobile, the guidelines, the patterns, the grid, the component all may be different from desktop.
      I can consider doing a mobile specific design system course.

    • @AMDesignAndDev

    Hey AM👋
    I came through your channel for the first time and just wanted to tell you that the content you are providing is really valuable. 'SUBSCRIBED'
    Do you have a LinkedIn or twitter? I am self learning ui/ux design from past few months and it would be really great if I could connect and learn.
    Thank you.
