Thank you so much. I am from India and this literally helped to understand where I can start using Figjam. I have neither used Figma nor Figjam before, your tutorial gave me full exposure to the icons and concept of how we can use Figjam efficiently.
Jazak allahu khair for the help.
Thank you so much for this video ! Better than anything I've watched on the actual Figjam channel :-)
Charlie, this video is super helpful for beginners like me who need good foundation with Figma!

Great intro to FigJam! Is there a dark mode or flexibility to change the infinite canvas background color to another preferred color? That huge white canvas is blinding IMO.
Great video, very well presented thank you! (looking forward to my ⭐)
Would help me getting started with figjam ✨🙌
This is very interesting. I’m wondering about the viability of using fig jam to create courses and workshops. Is there a way to record sessions or anything with figjam or are you using something like zoom?
I use Quicktime to record my screen for these videos, but I'd recommend Loom to record a video lesson using FigJam!
I'm 2:55, the margins and padding of the boxes are too large making the text proportionally too small. Anyway to reduce those?
I LOVE FIGJAM
Please use a voice boom filter for recording your voice. Thank you
Hi there , currently looking for an alternative to jamboard and was wondering if figjam can be issued to students to complete drawings etc or is it just used for presenting to a class ?
Can the taskbar be moved??
Hi I have a problem on figjam, I've done a lot of work on a board but now my professor said to scale it to 100%. When I zoom to fit it says 6% and if I scale it everything is chaos. I tried to make a mini version of it but now when I'm in 100% the sections are too little and the text is huge even at 4 pt. Idk what to do. Do I have to start over?
How were you zooming and panning so easily? Do you have some shortcuts for that? I keep needing to click to zoom.
I use a trackpad!
Very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for the plain English!
I am a teacher of kindergarten and first grade. I have to import my jamboards into Figma. Idk why, but now that I’ve imported some, I can’t seem to access them! Please help! Because Figma sure won’t help, ugh.
Damn, how you edit you videos?
it's a bit annoying wireframing on Figjam, when you put the palm of your hand on the screen the app sometimes changes the canvas' zoom 😞
I hear they’re working on that!!
✌🏻✌🏻
✌🏻
Figjam is cool but I’m so glad I was able to tell the you were from New Zealand and not Australia. As an American I’m quite proud.😊
Do use Figma if you do is okay for me to add u on my Figma
Yes absolutely
Can I add this in my figma jam files
