About this plugin

**Gestural Motion is now part of Motif Suite.**This standalone plugin has been retired. Everything it did now lives in Motif Suite, upgraded and free during the public beta, alongside 11 other motion tools. The Suite version adds a spline-align sequencer and vector paths.Get Motif Suite: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1656040744680367274Your baked keyframes never depended on this plugin, so nothing you have already shipped breaks. This page stays up as a signpost.---Free to use while in Beta.Draw a path on the canvas and your layers follow it. That's the whole idea. Motion that feels like someone actually moved something by hand, not like it was plotted on a grid.Six starting points: freehand pencil drawing, or pick a shape preset like circle, figure-eight, arc, wave, or zigzag. The Smooth slider controls how closely layers track the path. Low smooth means precise and jittery. High smooth means fluid and forgiving.Auto-orient rotates layers to follow the path tangent, so an arrow points where it's going without you manually keying rotation. Stagger mode offsets multiple layers along the same path for cascade effects. Reverse flips the direction.When it looks right, Bake writes translation and rotation keyframes directly to your layers. Undo pulls them back. Clear wipes them entirely.
