We’ve introduced Magic Draft, your AI writing assistant built to help you draft, refine, and reuse product copy right inside your design files. By leveraging your existing Ditto library and design context, it generates context-aware copy suggestions for everyone on your team.

Generate initial copy drafts and make quick edits using an LLM that pulls from your project’s metadata, style guides, and surrounding design elements.

How it works:

1. Select your text: Select a single text layer or multiple layers within Figma.
2. Open Magic Draft: Click the "Magic Draft" button located below the text field in the Ditto plugin.
3. Prompt and refine: Enter a prompt to generate a draft. You can view alternatives, provide a follow-up prompt to refine the result, or use quick actions to instantly simplify language or shorten text.
4. Review suggestions: Magic Draft automatically pulls context from a specific hierarchy to ensure accuracy:
   • Your specific prompt and the selected text layer
   • Ditto metadata (tags, notes, and status)
   • Surrounding text within the same Figma frame and screen
   • All existing text across your Ditto projects and library
   • The style guide rules and examples you’ve built in your workspace

Key features and considerations:

• To maintain consistency, Magic Draft will recommend reusing an existing library component or matching project text if your draft closely aligns with something already in your system.
• Ditto’s Activity log will capture any copy created or refined by Magic Draft, maintaining the same level of accountability as manual edits.

Magic Draft is currently available to all users with a Ditto account, within the Ditto Figma plugin. Drafting from the web app is not supported at this time.

Make Ditto work with your own team’s processes with new custom statuses. Capture specific stages—like "Legal Review," "Blocked," or "Ready for Translation"—to manage the work your way.

• Create and customize: Admins can head to workspace settings to add new statuses, choose custom colors, and select specific icons.
• Pick your order: Reorder your custom statuses alongside the default set to match your team's exact workflow, and hide the Ditto default stages if they don't fit your process.
• See status in Figma: Custom statuses will appear as text labels in Figma layer names (e.g., “[Legal Review] Button Label”), so designers and developers can stay informed without leaving the file.

A few things to note:

• To maintain a consistent workflow for the whole team, only Admins can create or edit custom statuses.
• The "Draft" status will still be the default status for all text items and cannot be hidden or reordered.
• To prevent data loss, you cannot hide or delete a status currently assigned to text items. If you need to phase one out, move those items to a new status first.

Custom statuses are available for teams on our Enterprise plan. If you’re on a different plan, upgrade in your settings or reach out to our team to get access.

Add, edit, and manage plural forms for your Ditto text items, to make your copy adaptable to different quantities (without creating disconnected text layers). Instead of managing multiple Figma text nodes for copy like "1 item" vs. "3 items," you can now define these variations within a single text item, right in Ditto.

How to use plurals:

• Select a text item: Navigate to a text item, variant, or library component in the Ditto web app or plugin.
• Enable plurals: Select the new "Plurals" option within the text details to define your pluralization context.
• Add your variations: Enter the specific copy for different counts.
• Sync with development: Use existing developer integrations or Ditto API to pull these plural forms into your codebase using a single devID.

Plurals follow standard i18n plural forms (like one, other, few, many).

Keep your design files clean while capturing all copy variations. Your developers will thank you!
