How do you create an offset in Figma?

To create an offset in Figma, you'll typically use a plugin since Figma doesn't have a built-in native offset feature for all object types. Here's how you can do it using the "Offset Resizer" plugin:

1. Open Quick Actions: Type ⌘ + / (or Ctrl + / on Windows) to open Figma's quick actions search bar.
2. Search for "Offset": Type "Offset" in the search bar. This will bring up relevant plugins.
3. Select and Run Offset Resizer: Choose the "Offset Resizer" plugin (or another suitable offset plugin if preferred) and click on it.
4. Enter Offset Values: The plugin interface will appear. Enter the desired offset value in the provided field or select from the preset values. You can usually adjust the offset uniformly or specify separate left and right margins by hitting the Tab key.
5. Apply the Offset: Hit Enter to run the plugin and apply the offset to your selected object(s).

In summary, using a plugin like "Offset Resizer" is the common method to generate offsets in Figma. This involves accessing the quick actions menu, searching for an offset plugin, inputting the desired offset values, and then running the plugin to apply the effect.
