Figma plug-in

With the Crowdin plugin for Figma, you can use texts from Crowdin Enterprise in your designs to save time for both designers and developers. Disse kan omfatte originale eller oversatte tekster. Om nødvendigt kan der tilføjes nye (f.eks. dialogtitler, knapetiketter), som kan sendes til oversættere i Enterprise.

Use Cases

• Quickly generate multilingual creative assets.
• Oversætte modelscenarier og teste dem på forskellige sprog, før programmering påbegyndes.
• Stop med at bruge ‘Lorem Ipsum’, tilføj i stedet rigtige tekster fra Enterprise til prototyperne.
• Opret og upload kildestrenge fra egne designs til Crowdin-projektet. På denne måde kan uploadede strenge bruges af udviklere, hvilket reducerer tid brugt på udvikling.
• Upload taggede skærmfotos til Enterprise-projektet.

You can add the strings that are already used in the designs or create and add completely new strings.

Afsendelse af Tekster til oversættelse til Enterprise

You can send text for translation either from selected or all frames from a Figma file. Translators will work with those texts in the list view and use designs as an additional context for even higher translation quality.

In Crowdin Enterprise, a root folder figma-plugin will be created. It will contain a subfolder named after your Figma file with HTML files for each frame inside. If needed, you can disable content segmentation in the plugin Settings so the long texts will not be split into sentences.

For at sende Figma-designs til oversættelse, så følg disse trin:

1. Åbn den relevante Figma-fil.
2. Go to Plugins > Crowdin for Figma.
3. In the Page Translation > Figma to Crowdin section, select content you’d like to send to Crowdin Enterprise. Select All Frames or Selected Frames.

Når kildefilerne er uploadet til Enterprise-projektet, kan bidragsydere inviteres til at oversætte og korrekturlæse dem.

Uploading Translations from Crowdin Enterprise to Figma

You can synchronize texts between Figma and Crowdin Enterprise projects whenever you want to test the translated copy inside Figma or generate multilingual assets.

To upload translated copies to Figma, follow these steps:

1. Åbn den relevante Figma-fil.
2. Go to Plugins > Crowdin for Figma.
3. In the Page Translation tab, Crowdin to Figma section, select the target language you want to upload translations for. You can also select All languages.
4. Select the content you want to preview in Figma. Select All Frames or Selected Frames.
   Note: Page names in Figma can consist of only letters (a-z, A-Z), numbers (0-9), and special characters - _ .

   

After uploading translations to Figma, the modified file will contain a separate frame with translations for each target language. De nyligt uploadede oversatte versioner vil ikke tilsidesætte dem, du tidligere uploadede. Du kan altid slette de oversatte kopier, du ikke længere behøver.

If you’d like the newly uploaded translated versions to override the previously uploaded ones, open the plugin Settings and select Override existing translations.
