It’s featuring smart animations, hover states, pressed states and active states. It is also visually appealing with a lot of carefully placed visual effects. You’ll learn how to use components, nested components, variants and smart animations to create a visually interesting tab navigation prototype in Figma. It’s great for website and app prototypes (product design) and guaranteed to keep your Figma prototype organized.

    Thx for the video, i copied your demo exactly, but you made it quite hard to follow along. The details you pretty much skipped and not constructively organized. Plz, take that as constructive criticism. I have one question though, when you change from "after release" to "active",what prototyping did you use for the active state? In what process did the element come into play and how.. Thx again for the video, the content was great.
  • Atlast I find the material that I was searching for.. Thanks for the video 😊

  • @axolson
    Badass. Great design! Thanks for the tutorial 🙌
  • @jamesfrank943
    what if the text goes longer? How can we have the bottom bar adjust to the width of each tab label?
  • @stark8153
    When I select the tab button, the page and highlighter work well, but I can't see the light behind me. What did I do wrong.
  • @leitociocia
    Hey, it doesn`t work for me. When i click on the tabs, from home to page 1, the "active" state disappears.... how can i solve that? thanks!
  • @ScutuRC
    This looks great, thanks for the detailed tutorial. One issue I encounter is that I created my tabs switcher for my Design System prototype and because the tabs used were part of the Buttons page, everytime I go to the Buttons page or leave it the tabs - the menu moves up and down from it's position to where is located on the Buttons page. This can be fixed with no smart animations. but that will defeat the purpose... so anyone any idea? Much appreciated! :)
  • Great Tutorial! Unfortunately, the invisible highlighter didn't work in the tabs. Perhaps this will be mentioned and supplemented in another video
  • @zeuskyst
    Hey great tutorial, thanks for creating it. I’m just wondering why did we need to create an interactive component for tabs? I feel like the way you prototyped it, variants is enough.
  • @jaronkunkel
    Thank you so much for this! I can't figure out how you select multiple elements across variants in order to batch edit them though. For example, when you changed the text in the buttons to "Page 2" and "Page 3" etc. Is there a special plugin for that?
  • Thank you for the lovely tutorial. I followed all steps but the 'Mouse up' and 'mouse down' function is not showing in my prototype function? Am I am doing anything wrong?
