Quick Material Icons

The fastest way to insert font based material design icons.Quick Material Icons is optimized for speed of use. The gist: run the plugin, search for an icon and add it to your file.

Or setup a shortcut (instructions below)You'll see a list of icons. After choosing your first, you'll see a list of recent iconsWhen you type, the full icon list is filtered and sorted based on recency.Click or press Enter to select the icon. (you can also use arrow keys).FeaturesRecent icons show by default.Select with your keyboard.After searching, results are sorted by recency.When a text object is selected, and it has the same name as an icon, the plugin will automatically replace the text for that icon. Eg. a text object using Helvetica has close as characters. Running the plugin will use the Material Icons font and show an icon instead.Running the plugin without a selection will add an icon in the center of the viewport.If multiple text elements are selected, the plugin will run for each element.If a frame or group is selected, the icon will be added to the center of the object.How to set a shortcut to run the plugin (mac)Go to System Preferences > Keyboard > ShortcutsSelect App Shortcuts from the left sidebarClick the [+] buttonChoose Figma from the Applications dropdownIn Menu Title type Quick Material iconsIn Keyboard Shortcut, type whatever works best for you.
