I’m a frequent user of Axure and would like to suggest a feature that I believe would add significant value to the platform: the auto-layout functionality.
Auto-layout systems—like those found in modern tools such as Figma—are increasingly essential for streamlining responsive prototyping, minimizing manual adjustments, and maintaining consistency across complex UI components. When working on scalable or adaptive interfaces, the lack of such a feature in Axure often results in additional effort and time-consuming revisions.
Adding auto-layout capabilities to Axure would be a major improvement, helping designers build more efficient and realistic prototypes while keeping Axure competitive with other leading design tools.
I’m happy to share more detailed use cases or feedback if that would be helpful.
Thanks for continuously evolving the platform and for considering suggestions from the community!
Thank you for writing in to the Axure Forums! We have added your information to a Feature Request we have in our system to add Auto-Layout functionality to Axure RP. We greatly appreciate all feedback on the software! If you have further use cases or feedback on the software, please add this to the Forum thread or write in to support@axure.com. Thank you!
I am also sad that Axure is not progressing at the rate that other products are. I have submitted plenty of feature requests over the years that are industry standard as well as seen others request features, only to be disappointed that in the release of RP 11 how little of them have been developed. Figma is great when it comes to developing UI designs but was not at Axure’s level when it comes to the interactions of the prototypes, but they are catching up, especially in the AI department. I have concerns for Axure’s future and that they need to do a serious realignment to stay competitive.
Maybe Figma needs to buy Axure and bring in what Axure does best into Figma. Now that would be a great tool!
