Guide
Inside your Figma design canvas, select the frame where you wish to add the padding.
Following that, head over to the right-side panel and locate the Layout section under the Design tab.
Tap the 'Use Auto Layout' icon afterwards.
Next, find the Padding option and then start configuring the settings based on your preference. For instance, you may input your desired horizontal and vertical padding or enable Individual Padding for a more specific calibration.
After completing these steps, the padding will be added to the selected frame.
