How do you convert frames to groups in Figma?

You can't directly convert frames to groups in Figma. Frames and groups are distinct elements with different functionalities.

• Frames are containers that hold and manage content, often used for layout and organization. They offer features like auto-layout, resizing, and padding.
• Groups are simply collections of objects that can be manipulated together. They lack the advanced features of frames.

To achieve a similar effect, you can group the contents of a frame. This will create a group containing all the objects within the frame, while the frame itself remains intact.

Here's how to group the contents of a frame in Figma:

1. Select the frame: Click on the frame to select it.
2. Select the contents: While holding down the Shift key, click on each object within the frame to select them all.
3. Group the objects: Right-click on the selected objects and choose Group from the context menu. Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+G (Windows) or Cmd+G (Mac).

This will create a group containing all the objects within the frame, allowing you to manipulate them as a single unit. Remember that the frame itself remains separate and can still be used for layout purposes.
