Vector editing mode in Figma - Cell-by-Cell Formula Trace

Sample Data

Coordinates of three points defining a vector shape in Figma's vector editing mode.

Cell	Value
A1	Point 1 X
B1	Point 1 Y
A2	100
B2	150
A3	Point 2 X
B3	Point 2 Y
A4	200
B4	250
A5	Point 3 X
B5	Point 3 Y
A6	300
B6	350

Formula Trace

Distance = SQRT((X2 - X1)^2 + (Y2 - Y1)^2)

Step 1: X2 - X1

Step 2: 200 - 100

Step 3: Y2 - Y1

Step 4: 250 - 150

Step 5: (X2 - X1)^2

Step 6: 100^2

Step 7: (Y2 - Y1)^2

Step 8: 100^2

Step 9: (X2 - X1)^2 + (Y2 - Y1)^2

Step 10: 10000 + 10000

Step 11: SQRT(20000)

Arrows: A2 -> A4, B2 -> B4 (coordinates used for distance calculation)

Coordinates from Point 1 (A2,B2) and Point 2 (A4,B4) are referenced to calculate distance.
