Hello everyone, I am trying to export a figma animation to lottie, but it doesn’t work and I have no idea why.
• I have the same amount of layers in all frames
• I have the same order of all layers in all frames
Consulta Sisben
Can anyone give me a hint? Thank you in advance, cheers George
Here is the link to the animation:
Hello,
To help troubleshoot your issue with exporting a Figma animation to Lottie, here are some common problems and solutions:
Potential Issues and Fixes:
Inconsistent Layer Properties:
Ensure all layers in each frame have consistent properties like opacity, blending mode, and position. Lottie may not handle mismatches well.
Check for any hidden layers or elements in certain frames, as these can cause issues.
Unsupported Features:
Lottie supports a limited subset of animation features. Effects like gradients, masks, or complex filters might not translate. Simplify your animation to test if the export works without them.
Frame Alignment:
Double-check that the animation frames align perfectly (e.g., keyframes should be on exact time intervals).
Export Plugin:
Verify you are using a reliable plugin, like the Figma to Lottie plugin or DotLottiePlayer Exporter. Ensure it’s the latest version.
Some plugins require specific frame naming conventions or layer structures, so consult the plugin documentation.
Component Usage:
Avoid using Figma components for animation layers, as these can sometimes export incorrectly.
Layer Order or Grouping:
Ensure layers and groups are correctly ordered and not nested in ways that the Lottie exporter doesn’t support.
Debugging the Export:
If the export works partially, import the Lottie file into a tool like LottieFiles to visualize and debug.
