Figma beépülő modul

With the Crowdin plugin for Figma, you can use texts from Crowdin in your designs to save time for both designers and developers. These could include original or translated texts. If necessary, you can add new ones (e.g., dialog titles, button labels) and send them to translators in Crowdin.

In this tab, you can add source strings from Crowdin to your designs in Figma in a click. Miután a szövegeket felhasználta a vázlataiban, automatikusan feltöltheti a címkézett képernyőképeket, hogy a fordítók láthassák azokat a Crowdinban.

Using Source Strings from Crowdin in Figma

1. Open the Crowdin plugin for Figma.
2. In the Strings tab, use the Search field to find the specific copy. You can search strings by source text, string identifier, or context.
3. Select the text layer to which you want to add text and click the link icon next to the needed string.

After using the source strings from Crowdin in your designs, they become linked with the text fields, and you can preview translations for these strings in Figma and upload screenshots for them to your Crowdin project.

You can link a single Crowdin string to one or multiple text fields in Figma. However, one text field can be linked only to a single Crowdin string. If you link a text field with an existing connection to a new Crowdin string, the previous connection will be terminated, and a new connection will be established. If you’d like to unlink a Crowdin string from all text fields it was previously linked to, right-click on the link icon next to the needed string.

Adding Source Strings from Figma to Crowdin

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

1. Open the Crowdin plugin for Figma.
2. To add the strings used in the designs, select the whole frame, multiple frames, or the needed strings on the frames. Alternatively, skip this step if you want to add a new string.
3. In the Strings tab, click .
4. In the appeared dialog, fill in the required fields.
5. (Optional) To add labels to the strings, alternately select them from the Label drop-down menu and click Add Strings.

To add the same strings into multiple files in Crowdin, alternately select the needed files from the File drop-down menu.

Clear the Push hidden elements option if some frames contain hidden elements that should not be added to Crowdin.

When adding multiple strings, you may want to select Link new duplicate texts to a single Crowdin string. It’s useful in the following cases:

• When adding multiple text fields with the same text, the plugin will add only one string to your Crowdin project and link all duplicate text fields to it.
• If your Crowdin project already contains a string with the same text you’re adding from designs, the plugin will only link the text fields to the existing string and won’t create a new one.

Added strings will be transferred to your Crowdin project and also displayed in the Strings tab’s list. You can edit or delete the strings from the same list anytime. The respective changes will also be applied to the strings in your Crowdin project.

Adding Source Strings with Plural Forms

You can add strings with plural forms.

1. Open the Crowdin plugin for Figma.
2. To add the strings used in the designs, select the whole frame, multiple frames, or the needed strings on the frames. Alternatively, skip this step if you want to add a new string.
3. In the Strings tab, click .
4. In the appeared dialog, fill in the required fields.
5. (Optional) Add labels to the strings.
   Note: When adding plural strings, the String field serves for adding the other plural form.
6. Click Add plurals.
7. In the appeared dialog, fill in the fields for each plural form. Depending on the source language of the connected Crowdin project, there could be a different number of plural forms you should specify.
   Note: You can add plural strings only to files that support plural forms (e.g., Android XML, Stringsdict, XLIFF, etc.).
8. Click Submit.
9. Click Add Strings.

Configuring ICU Source String Placeholders

When using ICU strings in your design, you can set the placeholders’ values, and after adding such strings to designs, they will be displayed in a formatted view with the preconfigured values.

Once you use the needed ICU string from Crowdin in your design, you can configure its placeholders’ values.

When previewing translations for ICU strings in Figma, they will also be displayed in a formatted view if the values were preconfigured beforehand.

Key Naming Pattern Settings

To simplify adding strings from Figma to the Crowdin project, you can set up the desired key naming pattern for the source string identifiers in the plugin settings. The Crowdin plugin for Figma will suggest the string identifiers for new strings based on the selected pattern. While adding new source strings, you can always edit the suggested identifier to the preferred look.

To select the key naming pattern, follow these steps:

1. Open the Crowdin plugin for Figma.
2. Váltson a Beállítások menüre.

Marketing Visuals Localization

Use the Pages tab to localize static pages, like brochures and banners. In this tab, you can send texts with context for translators to Crowdin and upload translated copies back to Figma.

Sending Texts for Translation to Crowdin

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, 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.

A Figma vázlatok fordításra való küldéséhez kövesse az alábbi lépéseket:

1. Nyissa meg a kívánt Figma fájlt.
2. Go to Plugins > Crowdin for Figma.
3. In the Pages > Figma to Crowdin section, select the content you’d like to translate. Select All Frames or Selected Frames.

When the source files are uploaded to your Crowdin project, you can invite contributors to translate and proofread them.

Látszathonosítás

Even before translations are completed, you can test whether your application is ready to be localized using pseudo-localization. This feature allows you to simulate how the application’s UI will look with different languages to check whether the source strings should be modified before the project localization starts.

Once you send your texts for translation, you can start pseudo-localization.

1. Nyissa meg a kívánt Figma fájlt.
2. Go to Plugins > Crowdin for Figma.
3. In the Pages > Pseudo-localization section, select the content you’d like to test with pseudo-localization. Select All Frames or Selected Frames.
4. In the appeared dialog, configure settings according to your preferences.

Uploading Translations from Crowdin to Figma

You can synchronize texts between Figma and Crowdin 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. Nyissa meg a kívánt Figma fájlt.
2. Go to Plugins > Crowdin for Figma.
