# Speech-bubble tail pop

_Illustration & motion graphics · Figma Motion Path example_

A speech bubble whose tail tip (custom lower-left anchor) stays pinned at the target as the bubble pops open. It's a ready-made recipe you can tweak and apply in a click — every option below writes real, editable Figma Motion keyframes.

## How to create it in Figma

1. Select a **layer to animate inside a frame** — the example draws its own path for you.
2. Or select your **own vector first** (as the path) plus the layer, and switch the preview to **Your path**.
3. Tweak the variables — the **preview updates live**. Use the reset icon to restore defaults.
4. Click **Apply to selection** to write the animation, or **Add example to canvas** to drop a ready-made demo.
