# Introduction
This Blender & Figma addon offers you the possibility to load textures directly from Figma into Blender file.
You can apply them directly to selected objects or simply paste them as a plane.
## Demo

## How to?
Search the "Blender connect" plugin in figma and install it.
Download the "Figma Blender Addon" from here: https://ph1p.gumroad.com/l/figma-blender-addon and install it (Edit -> Preferences -> Addons -> Install...)
- Start Figma Plugin (https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1095047912165244715/Blender-connect)
- Start Blender Addon. **Blender may freeze for a few seconds the first time, as dependencies are installed in the background.**
- Press `n` in Blender to open the sidebar
- Click on `Figma` and choose a folder for your textures
- Next start the server. The figma plugin UI should change and you're now able to import textures

## FAQ
### My Plugin does no start!
The plugin may not have been able to install the `websockets` dependency. So you can also do this manually via the command line. You have to replace the Blender-Version (`2.92`) and maybe the python executable (`python3.7m`).
**MacOS**
```bash
/Applications/Blender.app/Contents/Resources/2.92/python/bin/python3.7m -m pip install websockets
```
**Windows**
Run `cmd` and run this with admin rights.
```bash
"C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 3.1\3.1\python\bin\python.exe" -m pip install websockets"
```
## Development
### Figma
Just go into the **plugin** folder and run the following commands:
```bash
yarn install
yarn start # runs dev server
```
After that you only need to import it into figma under the Plugin section.
### Blender
I developed the plugin mainly with VSCode and this plugin https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=JacquesLucke.blender-development
You have to open the **addon** folder with VSCode and run the blender VSCode plugin.
