Use this interactive demo to learn how to trim and resize images directly in your Figma canvas.

Quick summary

Cropping an image in Figma takes just a few clicks using the Fill panel and the built-in Crop tool. Select your image, open the Fill menu, choose Crop, drag the handles to adjust, then click the canvas to apply.


Steps

  1. Inside your Figma design canvas, find and click the image you wish to crop.
  2. Go to the right-side panel and click the menu under the Fill section.
  3. Access the Custom tab and tap the drop-down menu.
  4. Choose Crop from the list of options.
  5. Use the blue handles around the image to make your desired adjustment.
  6. Click anywhere around the canvas to apply the changes.
  7. The selected image on your Figma design canvas will now be cropped accordingly.

📌 Why this matters

Knowing how to crop images directly in Figma eliminates the need to switch to an external image editor, keeping your entire design workflow inside one tool. The built-in Crop feature in Figma's Fill panel lets designers quickly trim, reframe, and resize images without leaving the canvas. This saves time during prototyping and ensures pixel-precise control over image composition. For teams working in Figma daily, mastering image cropping is a foundational skill that speeds up asset preparation and improves overall design efficiency.
