Why do guides in Figma always snap to pixel values rather than fractional pixels?

hard🧠 Conceptual Q10 of 15
Figma - Frames and Layout
Why do guides in Figma always snap to pixel values rather than fractional pixels?
ABecause fractional pixels are not supported by monitors
BTo reduce file size
CTo ensure sharp rendering and avoid blurry edges
DBecause snapping to fractions slows down performance
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand pixel snapping purpose

    Snapping guides to whole pixels ensures designs render sharply without blurry edges.
  2. Step 2: Exclude incorrect reasons

    Fractional pixels are supported by monitors; file size and performance are unrelated to snapping precision.
  3. Final Answer:

    To ensure sharp rendering and avoid blurry edges -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Pixel snapping = sharp edges [OK]
Quick Trick: Snap guides to whole pixels for crisp design [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Thinking monitors don't support fractional pixels
  • Assuming snapping affects file size
  • Believing snapping slows performance
