Teams often want to bring designs and flows into their Ditto project before jumping into specific edits. So now, you can add design frames directly to Ditto via the plugin.

Once you add a frame to Ditto, anyone in the project can view and work from it in the web app. Select the designs you want to collaborate on—whether a single frame, an entire section, or a full page—and bring them into Ditto.

• Frames that have been added will show up alongside the frames already in your project. We won’t automatically create or link text items when you add a frame: that will only happen when you interact with the text itself.
• By default, we’ll preserve the frame layout and flow from the Figma file: top to bottom, left to right, and with sections for grouping.
• Once a frame has been added to a project, it will have a unique URL in the web app. Copy this right from the plugin or from the web app to share it with someone else on your team.

Kicking off a copy review can be as simple as bringing in designs from a flow into Ditto. Add the frames that need a copy pass, then get to work with all the review features built into Ditto's web app. Reviewers can step through the flow frame-by-frame and take action: suggesting edits, marking status, or leaving comments.

(This one’s for those that shared feedback that they missed this from legacy Ditto!)

Setting up a Ditto project and importing copy shouldn't stand in the way of your work. Now, you have access to all of the functionality in Ditto (status, commenting, AI-enforced suggestions from your style guide)—without needing to import text or create blocks first.

• In the plugin's “Selected” tab, we’ll show all text layers in your selection. If a text layer isn't linked to Ditto, it’ll show up with a dashed outline.
• Once you take action on a text layer with the plugin (whether by editing the text, leaving a comment, setting a status, etc.), Ditto will handle the import for you by automatically creating a new text item in the Ditto project and linking the text layer to it.

You can still do all of the same manual setup actions as before (create text items, create blocks, link text layers to existing text items), but you don't have to, and it won't block you from getting started.

Commenting improvements

We’ve made conversations much easier in Ditto, with improved usability and actionability of comments in Ditto. This includes better read/unread indicators, clearer visibility of unread comments, and improved filtering to find your comment threads faster.
