With Figma for Adora, you edit the base creative once and the change applies to every ad size. This page shows how an imported ad is laid out in Figma, and where to make each type of edit.

How an imported ad is laid out

You import a whole submission at once, and each ad in it lands as one row on your Figma page. From left to right, a row has:

Main Component on the left holds the base creative. Any change here applies to all the ad sizes based off of it.
Submitted Image in the middle. This is the image submitted for assembly and is here for reference only.
Resized Ads on the right, where you can apply templates over the base creative.

One imported ad in Figma: 1. Main component, 2. Base creative, 3. Submitted image, 4. Resized ads

Adora names Resized Ads as “AD_” followed by a number. Duplicated or new ads not already in Adora will be named “NEW_” and will export as new ads.

If you want to…

If you want to	Do this in Figma
Fix or retouch the base creative	Edit the Main Component. Every resized ad picks up the change.
Replace the base creative with a modified version from another tool	In the Main Component, select the bottom image layer and choose Fill, then Choose image. Keep the fill mode on Fill.
Expand the Main Component frame size	Expand the Main Component first, then reposition each size, then do touch-ups. Each size keeps its place when you work in that order.
Reframe the base creative in a resized ad	Move or scale the base creative inside that Resized Ad. Hold Shift to keep its proportions. Avoid using right-click actions on the base creative.
Add text, logos or shapes	Place them above the base creative inside the Resized Ad.
Leave room for longer copy	Top-align text boxes and leave padding on the sides, so each line wraps correctly.
Make templates easy to edit	Convert templates to components and use slots for anything that should be movable. This way, you can edit copy changes in one place but still have flexibility to move elements in each Resized Ad.
Add blur, glass or blend effects	Apply them in the Main Component. Drop shadows, transparency and gradients work when applied to either the Main Component or the Resized Ad.
Try another template on the same Base Image	Select the Base Image from Main Components and click Create Template Variants in the Plugin. Each variant exports as its own ad.
Make more changes after a review	Run Import from Adora again from the Plugin with the same submission URL. It updates the ads already on your page and keeps your template work.

Dos and don’ts

These edits look right in Figma but don’t work in Adora. Use the fix in the last column instead.

In Figma	What you’d see in Adora	Do this instead
A blend mode on a template layer	Flat color, or nothing	Set template layers to Normal
Background blur or glass on a template layer	The effect is missing	Apply it to the image in the Main Component
A layer placed behind the image	The layer shows in front	Move it above the base creative in the Resized Ad or add it directly into the Main Component
Color, rotation, opacity or fill changed on the image in one size	The change is ignored, or the crop is wrong	Only move or scale the base creative in a Resized Ad, and make other changes in the Main Component

Keep all sizes for an ad bundled together

Follow these rules so every size of an ad exports back to Adora correctly:

Keep frame names as they are. Every size of an ad shares the same AD_ number.
Keep frame sizes as they are. To change what shows, move or scale the base creative inside the frame.
Replace the base creative only in the Main Component, never inside a Resized Ad.
Keep each Resized Ad a frame. Don’t convert it to a component, group or section.
Keep the ad on the Figma page you imported it to.
