GIF Canvas Preview

About this plugin

GIF Canvas Preview lets you finally see animated GIFs play in Figma — not in a separate window, but directly in the same layout and position as your design.

Select one or more frames, click Preview, and the plugin renders a live playback overlay that matches the true canvas coordinates, size, opacity, and transforms of every placed GIF.

✅ Real-time GIF playback

✅ Preserves exact frame position, rotation, scale, and opacity

✅ Multi-frame preview (keeps layout exactly as in canvas)

✅ Pinch-to-zoom + scroll to pan inside preview

✅ Light / dark UI theme toggle

✅ Resizable preview window

Works with:

• GIFs embedded inside frames

• GIFs stacked or rotated with other layers

• Multiple frames selected at once
