Import > Importing From Figma FAQs
why-does-it-take-so-long-to-import-my-designs-from-figma
Why does it take so long to import my designs from Figma?
Are you having trouble importing your designs to ProtoPie? Here are some troubleshooting steps:
Ensure you have the latest versions of Figma, Sketch, and Adobe XD installed, along with their respective ProtoPie plugins.
Make sure you use a fast and stable internet connection with enough bandwidth.

why-have-some-layers-been-imported-from-figma-incorrectly
Why certain layers from Figma were imported incorrectly?
If you notice that some layers haven't been imported correctly, it could be due to unsupported properties. We recommend checking out our import documentation, which provides detailed information on the supported properties when importing designs from Figma, Sketch, or Adobe XD.

What happens with partially supported properties?
Some design properties in Figma are only partially supported by ProtoPie. While they won’t block export, they might not work as intended after import. Here are some common cases:
Multiple fills: These are exported as editable SVGs. If you want more control, consider separating each fill into its own layer or keeping just the top or bottom fill.
Advanced stroke settings: These are also exported as SVGs. To ensure consistency, you can convert strokes into rectangles before exporting.
Layer blur or inner shadow: These effects are ignored during export. If needed, flatten the layer to PNG—just note that this version won’t be editable in ProtoPie.

error-layers-not-supported-import-from-figma
I received a message saying “Not supported” when exporting my design. What does it mean?
This message appears when a selected layer contains elements or properties that ProtoPie doesn’t fully support during export. While you can import these layers from Figma, they might not render or function as expected in ProtoPie due to limitations in feature compatibility.

supported-layers-import-from-figma
What type of layers are supported?
Frames, sections, and most basic layers can be exported without issues. However, some elements like slices or FigJam connectors aren’t supported for export. If you're working with those, try converting them to frames or standard layers before exporting.
