Is there any way to restore the Enter key behavior within comments?

Before: Enter key would add a new line while typing comments
Now: Enter sends the comment (requires Cmd+Enter to add new line)

It is extremely annoying that it ends up sending the comments before I’m done writing them.

This is an issue that happens regularly:

  1. I type “@” and the name of the person(s) I want to mention
  2. then I press Enter to start the actual comment
  3. but then It already sends the comment with just the mentions
  4. the people I mentioned receive an email notification with empty comment

I have received emails with just my name (exactly like in step 4 above), so it’s not only me who’s having this issue.
Please help me.

+1 to the above. I’d love a Figma setting that allows the user to set a preference for Enter → New line and CMD + Enter → Submit comment or vice versa.


+1 for preference setting to have Enter open a new line and Enter + Command send the comment.


Actually for me it works as SHIFT + Enter


I will help you please contact me


Thank you for your reply.

However, this is not a question about “how to add a new line in comments.” It is a question about “how to change the Enter key behavior.” ☺️
