Auto Layout
under review
Matthias Grosser
This needs to be implemented. ASAP. Repositioning of elements, even with small changes is a big NoNO. The possibilities with this system to enable a true responsive layout on multiple devices would be a gamechanger. It should work like CSS Flexbox.

Auto Layout or Stacks
Anthony Christie
A little empathy for design teams is where it would greatly help to speed up the workflow of teams to have this helpful feature while designing prototypes in ProtoPie.
FIGMA's AUTO LAYOUT = Lets you create dynamic frames that respond to their content. With responsive components, you can create buttons and cards that automatically resize as their text changes or menus and lists that can be quickly reordered. And, by combining these responsive components, you can create full screens that work across multiple device types.
FRAMER'S STACKS = Is a property that you can toggle on/off for any Frame that you draw. Once enabled, any existing child layers inside the Stack will be automatically positioned according to the Stack properties, depending on the number of items inside. You can change the behavior of the Stack using the properties panel, allowing you to customize how the inner elements are distributed. A Stack is also a Frame with its Stack properties enabled (In ProtoPie, this would be the same as a container with its "stacks" properties enabled).
Thank you!

Any updates on this, seeing marked as under review in Nov 2022? The amount of weird formulas and work arounds I have to do for objects that need to have dynamic sizes is becoming a pretty big time sink and frustration point and is having me consider other tools now sadly.

Ryan Cuppernull: Hello! It's been on our radar for a while, but it's a large-scale development project that requires significant engineering resources. It's on our roadmap, but unfortunately, we can't provide a deadline or an approximate release date at this time. We will keep this page updated!
Garrett Anderson
Can we get an update on the progress of this? It has been "Under Review" for 5 months?
Pascal Alex Holm
Garrett Anderson: Agreed.

Garrett Anderson: Hi! It's in our roadmap for this year. However, we can't communicate an exact release date yet. We will keep this page updated!

We are tired and we are transferring the project to FlutterFlow. There is adaptive and alignment and padding and complex logic. Bye.

It's been about 4 years since this feature was requested!

This will really help us build a scalable interaction library! Our team struggles so much today to make every component auto-resizable based on the content. Thanks for prioritizing this.
Pascal Alex Holm
YES!

Auto layout will be game changer. Need this. Waiting eagerly!

Please add this... its one of the biggest challenges moving from Figma to Protopie. Autolayout was the reason I dropped sketch; making changes to mockups where there are multiple repeating elements in a grid or stacked (like lists) is INCREDIBLY painful after having been spoiled with Figma capabilities. Not having auto layout costs literally hours of revision time for complex layouts or when iterating quickly; which is the biggest use-case for Protopie. Please strongly consider this! In the interim my team and I will only be using Protopie where there are complex interactions that cannot be facilitated with Figma as a result. Would love to use more but this is a big impediment.
