Figma - Frames and Layout
You created a 5-column grid in Figma but the columns appear merged without gutters. What is the most probable reason?
AThe frame width is too large for the grid
BThe column count is set incorrectly
CThe gutter width is set to zero or too small
DThe grid type is set to Rows instead of Columns
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Identify the issue

    Columns merging means no visible space between them.

  2. Step 2: Check gutter settings

    If gutter width is zero or very small, columns will appear merged.

  3. Step 3: Verify other settings

    Column count and grid type affect layout but do not cause merging if gutters exist.

  4. Final Answer:

    The gutter width is set to zero or too small -> Option C

  5. Quick Check:

    Gutters separate columns visually [OK]
Quick Trick: Check gutter width if columns overlap [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Assuming column count causes overlap
