Suggest a Feature

In my organization, we have enterprise level Figma or something like that and we use branching.So, without adding too much info, the situation is: The design file linked with library file.And in the design file we have stuff going on.And then we have branches from the design file. The scenario I had this week which cost me sleepless nights and two days of headaches, plus additional work on cleaning the mess out:And yes, I know, I’m partly responsible for that but I will add my conclusion in the end. So one day it was decided in the team that we need to alter one input in the input component (one variant). I made the change. Unfortunately, forgot to first train on a branch, but I thought “hey, it’s just one input, just adding some element to it” (let’s say it lacked an asterisk to be obligatory as a feature of the component).I rolled the change to branches and I think I just updated one of the branches as I

Hi there. It would be cool feature like truncation for auto layout. When you do narrower the line (horizontal or vertical) of a layout truncate excessive elements. It’s would be work good for element with set min width.For example, this two last elements truncate, and the other ones fill the space with the rules of layout for this box

Dear Figma,I wanted to bring to your attention that we are in the 21st century, and there are devices specifically designed for designers, such as tablets. I own an iPad, which has an amazing display and can be used with a keyboard and mouse. However, I currently use it only for viewing my designs because Figma, the professional tool I rely on, does not fully function on my iPad. This leaves me with a few options: sell my expensive iPad to buy a PC or laptop, which is less comfortable for me, wait for an iPad update from Figma before GTA VII, or use it solely for watching movies. I wanted to remind you that tablets exist for a reason, and it would be beneficial if Figma could support them more fully.

Firebender is a coding agent, that many android engineers use. Currently the Remote Figma MCP does not work whenever I configure it. Is there any way to get this to work? I tried:https://docs.firebender.com/context/mcp{"mcpServers": { "figma": { "url": "https://mcp.figma.com/mcp", "type": "http" }}} and I get a message saying to reach out to Figma support to allow Firebender MCP client use OAuth scopes with the Figma remote MCP

It would be really useful to be able to create a branch or a fork in a Make file that can be merged back into the original. Similar to how engineering branches their files. This would allow someone to iterate on an idea without disrupting a prototype that is being used for feedback/testing/presentation.My current workaround is to duplicate the file but the problem is that creates multiple links. I want one link to share with stakeholders/testers that doesn’t change.Thanks for your consideration!

It would be amazing to see if there could be a native figma built-in Bento grid generator with sliders. I know we have the grid function, but this plugin from Akriva is wicked simple to use and would really improve workflows. Would love it if you could select frames and have Figma AI automatically create a campaign ready bento with images.The simple, random, centered and sliders make this such a great easy to use feature that would be awesome to have in Figma. https://www.akrivi.io/presenta

One important feature is missing = Merging cells 😦 Is this feature included as an improvement in the near future?

Hi Figma team,I’m working with a central design system library that uses variables for colors, typography, spacing, etc. The challenge I’m running into is how to customize those variables per project/client without editing the library file.Here’s the workflow I’d love to have: In the library file, components are built using semantic variables (e.g., Brand / Primary, Text / Default). In a project file, I create local variables with the same semantic structure but mapped to project-specific brand values. I want to be able to relink or remap library variables to my local variables, so that when I update the local variable values, all linked components automatically update. Right now, even if I duplicate the variable structure locally, components still reference the library’s variable IDs

Organization would be immensely helpful if we could create folders for our drafts. I want to be able to organize my drafts into different categories (such as UI kits, Ideas, Wireframe kits, iOS, Android, etc…) so I can find files easily. Right now, the drafts page is a huge jumbled mess and I can’t create Team pages for everything. Maybe something as simple as being able to add ‘tags’ to each file, similar to Zeplin.

Right now it seems like the ‘default’ variant is set based on which variant is ‘upper leftmost’ in the variant container frame. Instead, I suggest decoupling arrangement from precedence, and using the property ordering functionality to determine the default variant. The default variant should simply be the one with the first value for each property, regardless of where it’s placed in the variant frame. This would allow teams to set defaults directly from the properties panel, without having to move components around. See this thread for some more context: How to set defaults / precedence of variants with multiple properties?

If you open a lot of projects the tab strip gets crowded. Chromium browsers solved this by allowing to group tabs, maybe Figma could do the same ?

Figma Make is the best prototyping tool I have seen so far (yes, better, or at least more time efficient, than V0 and Claude Code for now). It also has an integration with Github, which is suuuper cool. Now… it would be REALLY gamechanging, if the connection with Github was a two way sync. If edited code could be pulled back into Figma Make, for team collaboration across multiple platforms. I understand that this is really tricky, because Figma Make can't interpret all types of code… but I'm putting it out there… 

Currently, annotation categories are defined per file.This makes it hard to keep consistency across team projects.It would be very useful to have option for team-level or organization-level annotation categories, managed centrally, so all files share the same list.This would help maintain alignment between designers, developers, and QA.Please upvote 😊

Slides and Figma prototype are products of same tool, there is no way to add prototype into slides which can let me me scroll through my desktop prototype 🤔This causes a lot of back and forth between different tabs while doing a presentation. 

Please answer the questions as soon as possible. Any approximate date to next release.

Engineers on my team just noticed that they can’t see and export local variables unless they have edit permissions. This is a huge limitation since not everyone on my team can have edit permissions due to licensing/cost. My ideas is to keep local variables visible to View Only collaborators. They should not be able to edit the variables.

Why are the "Save to version history" and "Show version history" options disabled in Figma Make, even on a paid account?

Hello,I am looking to create a good hero section for my site, where it should take the height of browser in the first fold. The subsequent sections can be of fixed heights based on content. I need something like 100vh to have for my hero section.

This has been mentioned here: Hide layer using variables - #5 by Andreas_Braendhaugen1 Invert boolean variable for layer display - #14 by Desislava_Slavkova Inverted Boolean Property - #2 by drewcovi_usb but those topics are all closed. I am looking for the availability to HIDE a layer when a Boolean variable is TRUE and SHOW it when it is FALSE. So, the inverse of the default/current behavior. I want to do this without using components. Use case: When a variable is true, show one frame. When that same variable is false, show a different frame. I can get basically this by using two different variables:

It would be really cool if we could access Code Connect for variables at a lower plan level. It appears you cannot use Code Connect for variables in any other plan than an Enterprise full seat due to not having access to “REST API for variables” feature.This would really help us in using the Figma MCP for better consistency but as a self employed professional $90 a month is a bit too rich for me personally.

Current State: When you add a stroke to a mask, the stroke becomes an extension of the mask.Needed Improvement: When you add a stroke to a mask, the stroke is on top of the mask.This should be so simple, can’t understand why this wouldn’t be the default, but at the very least to have this as an option would be super helpful. I understand you can duplicate the shape on top and add the border, but then when resizing the mask you have to resize the shape on top as well, trying to eliminate a step. 

I’ve got our company’s internal design system packages published into our private NPM registry. But in doing so, I found (after I published) I needed to modify the packages for consumption by figma make. Figma’s NPM private registry would not allow me to unpublish or overwrite the package versions once I published them.This is causing a problem in Figma Make because users are able to select old, incorrect versions of the packages when installing. I want to prevent this by being able to unpublish or delete packages from the registry, but I’m unable to do it.We are experimenting with the best way to handle this for figma make that is easiest for our figma users--and would like to be able to hit a hard reset at some point as we may completely change strategies. Right now, we have 50 or so unbundled packages in figma make. In the future, we may want to bundle those into a single versioned package for easier consumption.To summarize, here is a list of figma make NPM

HiI’m looking for a way to simply be able to highlight and make bold  at the same time if possible.It can also be just changing text color, again preferably with the option to add bold effect.I would like to then be able to customize shortcuts for this..Example:Blue highlight / Command - Shift - 1Yellow / Command - Shift - 2etc.I really can't believe that this is not an easily available option in Figma, seeing as highlight pens are very very popular for anyone studying anything, and categorizing things through color can be very helpful for those working with large amounts of text. So I hope anyone can let me know if there’s a way to do this, or that this me

Simplify “Assets” to only show all components of the local file instead of which page they are on. Too many clicks to navigate to find the component, and there isn’t a search function.
