Image Export
Asset export from Figma: PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF formats, scale and quality settings.
Image export
SXL Studio lets you export Figma elements as raster images directly from the plugin. This is more convenient than Figma's built-in export since all settings are in one interface.
Supported formats
| Format | Description |
|---|---|
| PNG | Primary format, supports transparency |
| JPEG | Compressed format with configurable quality |
| WebP | Modern format with good compression |
| GIF | For simple images with limited palette |
How to export
- Select elements in Figma
- Click the Download button in the plugin's bottom panel
- Switch to the Assets tab

- Click Export
Settings
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Format | PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF |
| Scale | Scale multiplier (1x, 2x, 3x, etc.) |
| Quality | Compression quality (JPEG and WebP only) |
How it works
- The plugin requests export via the Figma API (
exportAsync) in PNG format - The result is sent to the plugin UI as base64
- For large images, data is split into chunks
- The UI re-encodes PNG to the selected format (JPEG, WebP, GIF)
- The file is downloaded to the device
Preview
Before exporting, a preview of the selected element is available — a PNG thumbnail to confirm the right object is being exported.
