In the modern HTML standard there’s a section about Drag and Drop with special events such as dragstart, dragend, and so on.

Your objects are moved into a grid formation with even spacing. Select at least three objects on your board.You can also adjust the horizontal and vertical spacing between objects and rearrange their order while maintaining their spacing. Use tidy up to rearrange and organize objects like stickies and shapes into a uniform grid of rows and columns. There are six different alignment options: Objects in FigJam can only be aligned to other objects. Figma will determine your layer's alignment based on your specific selection. Align objectsĪlignment tools allow you to arrange layers on the board in relation to one another. Each object has a location on the board, and you can align and distribute them to keep things tidy. When you diagram with shapes and connectors, and leave fire stamps on that great idea your PM Emily wrote on a sticky note, you're creating objects on the FigJam board.
