Is everyone around here ever able to use Template styles in Figma Slides?
EVERY time we paste a slide from another presentation, it creates a ‘new’ template so we end up with a dropdown full of slightly similar templates styles and it is impossible to delete them unless I switch every culprit style to the ‘main’ style. But doing usually changes things around so we just gave up trying to use them 😭
Here is a screenshot of the dropdown in most of our slide decks:
Hi,
It seems like we can’t delete a Layout guide Style after creating one in Figma Slides… And how do we delete a Template style when we have more than one in a deck?
This is basic features, yet somehow it’s so hard to find, or doesn’t even exist.
Having the same issue, I used to be able to delete any unused style once I made sure all the slides were the same. However, the delete/bin icon has disappeared now. It’s getting messy!
Hey All, thank you for flagging this and apologies for the delayed reply here!
I completely understand how this could be affecting your workflows. I’ve flagged this over to our Slides team, and they are aware of this issue. They’re already working towards improving this in the future.
Agreed - huge problem over here too
please get this sorted! Super annoying.
It’s only getting worse and worse as we copy paste slides from various decks all the time, PLEASE FIX THIS SOON, let us delete templates styles !!!!
I realize that today as well, Figma Slides is so half-baked….
We also discovered it is not possible to delete Layout guides once you create one, great ….
Same - it’s worse than ever. We’re moving back to Google slides, even though we can’t use custom fonts in slides, having those is not worth the nightmare of Figma’s half baked slides function
Having this issue right now with colors also—it’s just the same two colors labeled “custom style” over and over again burying my actual template miles down the list
Hey All, thanks for continuing to share your feedback!
We appreciate you flagging this and sharing how it’s impacting your workflows. I completely understand how frustrating this can be, especially when it slows things down in practice. This is still something our Slides team is aware of and actively tracking.
While I don’t have any new updates to share just yet, I’ve passed along the recent feedback here to help reinforce the impact and priority. As soon as I hear more on potential improvements, I’ll be sure to update this thread. Thanks again for your patience and for continuing to surface these details.
