Feature Request: Merge to parent if type is same and 1 child

Ask us anything

I’m a little lazy I’m wondering if we could come up with a solution for this issue. When I import a design from Figma there’s a lot of extra elements being created.

In this image you can see there’s Source Source Image and then the Image. I will most likely manually compare the Source and Source Image containers and then merge them into one. Like I said I’m lazy. I would either like to be able to merge 2 similar type elements together or have the Figma take care of it in a smart way.

Hi Stephen, glad to have you back!

We all love to build fast and efficient, I wouldn’t call that lazy :wink:.

I think cleaning up your figma file is still a manual step among all app builders at the moment.

There might be a plugin that could help you with that, try this one: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/767379019764649932/clean-document

Let me know if this helps.
Cheers!
