Skip pages and layers

Development

Figma to Qt converts Figma pages and layers into QML types. You can instruct it to skip pages and layers that are not a part of the application. The plugin might ignore your instructions if it needs the marked layers and pages in the code.

The children of a skipped layer are also skipped. For example, if you skip a Group layer, its children are also skipped. Similarly, when you skip a page, all layers of that page are also skipped. To view info messages about skipped layers, select (Issues) in the plugin.

You cannot mark the following skipped:

• A layer within an instance of a component.
• A variant within a component set.
• A layer within a variant.

The feature is also unavailable if you selected several pages or layers.
