Suggest a Feature

I wish it was possible to drag and drop images directly from my web browser, instead of having to copy & paste it all the time, which takes longer. I’m on a Windows 11 PC.

Feedback 1: since Figma Desktop App version 126.1.2 text styles picker always shows libraries of styles in collapsed state. It’s super annoying, since search doesn’t work until you un-collapse it.Feedback 2: please fix up/down arrow behavior on styles. Example: the text span has style “Body/Emphasized” → I press arrow up expecting it to switch to “Body/Emphasized” → instead Figma selects “Headline/Regular” (the style that just happened to be below the search box). I papercut myself on this multiple times every day for the past couple of months now, at least.Figma’s a great product, I love it, but bugs like these are a big let down for me. I believe basic features like text styles should be dogfooded more to remain best in class. 

When adding components to a Slot and attempting to surface nested properties I see a message that nested properties can not be surfaced with Slots. This severly limits their usefulness to us since we are creating multiple composable components using sub components with properties and having to drill in to each instance in a multi-item Slot is very time-consuming.

I’ve been teaching my coworkers to give figma slides presentations, which are superior to google slides partly because of the inherited prototyping features. One reason I still make hand-made slides is non-linear presentation structure -- if I could copy and paste a link to a specific slide, in viewer mode, and link it to a component, I’d convert my whole team. We have a pretty important presentation that needs this feature and I’d prefer not to build it from scratch. 

The official Figma MCP server currently supports Design files and FigJam, but not Figma Slides. This is a significant gap.Use case: We use Claude Code with the Figma MCP to generate designs programmatically. Being able to create and populate Figma Slides decks via MCP would be a game-changer for our agency workflow -- we produce dozens of presentations per month (pitches, case studies, client reports) and want to leverage AI to draft them directly in Figma Slides.What's missing:create_new_file only accepts "design" and "figjam" as editorType -- needs a "slides" option use_figma / get_design_context should work with Slides files (reading and writing slide content, speaker notes, layouts) Ideally: slide-specific primitives (add slide, reorder slides, set slide transitions)Why it matters:Figma Slides

If you are using the “isolate” function on the Figma AI image Editor, you must have noticed that the image below it fills it in with an assuming background. Often, you need to copy that, and put the isolated part back into the original image, (I don’t always want the function to be destructive, nor do I like creating endless copies, just so I can isolate something) . I am proposing a feature that lets you simply copy the “isolated” part of the image, allowing you to paste it somewhere while still keeping the original intact. My current workflow: I am “isolating”, copying, and then undoing the action to get the “isolated” part back into the original image. Often, due to slight of hand, I undo the isolation faster than I copied it, and that leaves me with the option to do it again (if redo is not working) and wait for it to isolate. Sometimes I just want a part of the image without the original being destroyed. What do you think about this feature?

 Almost all of the work I do happens in branches, so I’m often jumping between different branches across different files. (And I break out in hives if I have 20 tabs open at a time 😅). I’m having a hard time finding the stuff I need.Since we can’t search for branches, how about putting recently viewed branches under the “Recents” tab?(I did try adding frequently-visited branches to my sidebar, but that got out of hand pretty quickly.)

Hi I suggest that Figma includes a “Copywriter” permission level, allowing designers to grant edit access to copywriters for text editing only, preventing displacement of elements. This would enhance collaboration between designers and copywriters, who play a vital role on product teams.

When I’m working with components, sometimes I don’t plan for all states ahead of time, and find myself overriding elements within an instance. I’d love to be able to push an override to the main component, creating a new variant of that component, instead of having to return to the main component to go through the process then and there. I think this would be helpful for library/pattern maintenance without disrupting me while I’m in a flow state.

Hello! I feel that there should be a option to set a “default” or “display” variant for components, which shows at all times while viewing instances within Edit/Dev views of Figma pages. Perhaps a checkbox or a toggle which allows this to happen, so if it is left unchecked the component acts as normal. Perhaps someone could provide some information on what the best practices are for solving this problem that I have, or else I suppose this post should stand as a feature request. The reason being is that for components which have complex animations built into them using variants as keyframes, the first frame of the animation may not properly represent the purpose of the whole component when it is viewed outside of “Present” mode. The component may be blank when viewing in Edit/Dev mode, but when presenting the content animates in. Here is an example:

Please can we get percentages for variables? We can use percentages manually, but we can’t create a percentage as a variable. This would speed up my design to dev process tenfold, and considering we can already use percentages in the design, why disallow it in variables?An example is I want store values for line height and letter spacing as percentages which behave responsively/dynamically, so when creating type variables I don’t have to do manual calculations, store 10+ letter spacing/line height values based on which font size they will be used with and hope I never change the font size variable in the future.

I’m trying to find the CSS properties in dev tools for the glass effect, but can’t find any styles related to it at all. How do I share this with devs? There’s nothing as much as even a background blur mentioned. the only styles I can find are border radius and bg color, both of which I applied to my comp, and are not related to the glass effect at all. All help is much appreciated. TIA

I would like to be able to selected multiple child components which are all associated with the same parent component and edit their shared nested instance properties across all selected child components.

Is there any work currently being done to allow a mobile navigation in a hamburger menu for Figma sites.None of the navigation blocks have this option. in the mobile component and even when I create components with an overlay interaction, the overlay will not appear when I use the component in Figma sites no matter what I try.This is a pretty big limitation to one of the most common patterns in mobile UI.Is there any way to accomplish this that I am missing?

There is no way to add spaces between words in typography section in Figma. There is a huge difference between letter spacing and word spacing in typography. However, we only have the ability to change the spacing of letters instead. There is even a CSS property called word-spacing. word spacing in CSS Letter spacing in CSS So can we have the simple word spacing feature added to Figma typography section

When aliasing a color variable to another (img 1), or using it directly on an element (img 2), we should be able to override the opacity without the need to create a variable for each transparency variation: Cant override opacity in the alias: Example 2 Cant override the fill opacity:

Within CSS padding spacing, it goes:Padding: TopBottom LeftRight;While figma visual editor has: Padding: LeftRight Top Bottom; 

Hello everyone!Somehow Figma design started to show tags on video in canvas. Not in jam, not in dev mode or prototype, just basic canvas.Didn’t find any options to turn it off, figma support agent didn’t help.I have no HTML tags option in right sidebar, no annotations enabled and such, how can I turn them off? 

hey there! variables seems to be super nice but what i am missing is that if i make a colour alias to a specific collection - i can’t set the opacity separately (e.g. colour 50 with 20% opacity) So basically i want the colouyr to be from another collection and i want to set the alpha seperatly (controlled as rgba - since i dont need it as opacity) Example how we can fix this in token studio:

Coming from a design org where designers with full-seats have a variety of workflow-types. Some designers leverage AI heavily while others do not, thus some designers burn through AI credits and others have a generous amount that go to waste in that AI credit cycle. This trend can vary, of course, so as an admin, I think it would benefit our organization with some type of allocation or redistribution of AI credits to those seats who rely on them during a given credit cycle—credits that are technically available within our organization. It could even be a designer-to-designer interaction where Designer A shares 1000 credits with Designer B if they know they don’t need all their credits that cycle.Is anyone else seeing this trend in their organization, or see this as a potential scenario? I want to make sure we’re getting the most for our money and optimizing resources across the team.

I’d like to suggest an improvement that would streamline the design process—especially when working with components.Currently, when resizing or aligning elements, I need to press the ALT key to view spacing measurements (such as padding, margin, and distance between elements). This adds unnecessary friction, especially during frequent adjustments.My suggestion is to add a toggle in the settings that allows users to always show spacing measurements by default. This way, whenever an element is selected, its padding, margin, and size can be instantly visible—without needing to hold down a key or guess the values.This feature could be customizable. For example: Always show padding/margin/size values when selecting an element. Let users choose which measurements they want to see by default (padding, margin, width, height, etc.). This wouldn't overcomplicate the UI but

I need the option to be able to share a presentation with clients in a way that doesn’t allow for members of my team to make updates that client will see while they are reviewing. This would also be incredibly helpful for internal reviewing. This could be in allowing a link to only be updated manually and/or adding an additional layer of permissions. Generally my pain points are: Designers have accidently make updates to a working file and it threw off clients who were actively reviewing the work and added confusion My company uses Page Proof for internal routing already but our clients are happy to use Figma to give us feedback. I need to be able to facilitate internal conversations around client feedback without the client seeing the discussion. Page Proof allows links which works well with Figma, but if the designer forgets to make a duplicate page the comments don’t align with the prototype anymore. Duplicating pages to “archive” ro

I would love to be able to create one prototype across the pages in a file that resembles an actual website. This would be ideal for bigger projects and would be easier to maintain as well. We can connect the component libraries across all the pages anyways. A way to connect the prototype would be great in my opinion and that will give Figma a big leg up on other platforms. What do you guys think?
