I'm so tired of changing colors one by one. Why can't I just select all the colors and change them at once? This is so annoying 🥲

"Scroll to" objects in different frames

Currently Figma only allows scrolling to objects within the same frame. This makes difficult to hyperlink to a particular location in a different frame. E.g. when making the main navigation menu in a website to navigate to specific headings in a different page

Prototype View on Dual Monitors

Hi everyone,I’d like to suggest improvements to how Prototype View works when using a second monitor in Figma. Currently, when you press Restart in the Prototype View, it often starts from a completely different frame instead of restarting the one you were viewing. There’s no easy way to return to your original frame.In addition, when trying to manually select a frame in the Prototype View sidebar, the frame you were working with is often missing, and random other frames are shown instead, without any clear logic.It’s also not possible to open and manage multiple Prototype Views at the same time on a second monitor — you can only have one, and switching requires closing and reopening the Prototype View manually. As a result, every time I need to go back to my original frame or open a different prototype, I have to completely close the Prototype View and set it up again on the second monitor. If this behavior is intentional, could someone explain how to work with it properly?Otherwise,

Ability to add/remove/re-order items in an auto-layout component

This is a reference to a topic that was closed without resolution: Reorder objects in an autolayout component instance. Allow for order overrides Share an idea Reorder objects in an autolayout component instance. Allow for order overrides. Allow users to reorder (drag or arrow) objects inside a component instance that has auto-layout on it. Especially useful for components that have repeated elements, such as a dropdown menu or a group of form inputs, navigation. This would be much quicker than manually changing each of the elements in-between where the current element is and where the new position is. Or for users that don’t have patience and break… I can’t express how frustrating it is when a designer has to detach one of your components simply to add a tab in-between existing tabs or a dropdown option above existing ones. When I build a component I shouldn’t have to create 10 hidden layers as placeholders to make sure that the component works for a design with 2 dropdown options or

Send invoice as email attachment

In Finland, we have to attach the invoices to all card payments for bookkeeping. Now I need to every month to go to Favro and manually download the invoice. Please add a feature where I can define an email address for the invoice emails and automatically send new invoices in an email with the PDF invoices attached so that we can automate the download and processing of the invoices. The subject of the email should have the same structure each month ("You Figma invoice YYYY-MM-DD) and the PDF invoice name should be unique and contain the date of the invoice, for example, Figma incoice YYYY-MM-DD

Changing the location of annotations on the sheet

It would be a great idea to add the ability to move annotations (сhanging the place). Right now, they’re fixed in place and can overlap other elements. And you cannot change it.What I mean is the ability to reposition an annotation freely while keeping the link to the target object intact.Annotations are a really useful feature—thank you! Previously, I had to create similar functionality using my own objects. Please do not move this offer to another discussion. 🙏 Can we move the Figma Annotations (in dev mode) from one Figma project to another? These are different questions.

Remove limitations on Connected Projects

I was surprised to notice today that the long awaited Connected Projects is now available in Figma but also very disappointed to see the absurd limitations on how many connected projects each plan can have. I can somewhat understand the limitation of being able to connect with one company at a time for technical/admin reasons in the first release, but WHY do we need the limitations of how many connected projects we can have if all parties are already paying for their licenses? The max 3/6 in Professional and Organization is ridiculous, as it also counts the projects that are shared our way. Please remove these artificial limitations, or at least make them a lot bigger like 20 / 40 / 80 so they make some sense in the real world.

Add a sidebar tab directly to Shared Files and/or Shared Projects

I find it’s a really long process to re-locate a file that belongs to another team once I’ve closed it. It appears under ‘Recents’ but that often isn't the most organised space to find things in. Please can we get a shared tab on the left sidebar, or bring the ability to pin/star files back?

Group Tabs

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 ?

Remove Leaving Figma External Link Warning for anyone without an account/not logged in

Im creating a prototype and would like to link to live pages on our site without having the User in the test have to see the “Leaving Figma Warning” page. My concern is that it takes it breaks the illusion of an actual experience. Is there a way remove this middle page from the experience?

Shortcut menu to access Assets tab in quick actions

I'm really enjoying the Actions menu! It would be awesome to have the option to access the Assets tab directly as well, just like we can currently access the Assets left panel with a keyboard shortcut. This way, we could set a custom shortcut to open the Assets tab directly from the Actions floating menu. ​@Figma_Desktop 🙏

Allow us to expose Annotations and Measurements to View Seat users.

Hi, The addition of annotations and measurements to Design mode is such a great decision. However this is rendered almost useless if the annotations and measurements can’t be made visible to View Seat users. Often annotations are used for communication with a range of stakeholders, not just designers and developers. It’s not viable to upgrade every stakeholder to a Full or Dev seat to engage with this content.

Paste without annotations

I can’t seem to find a way to paste designs without copying over the annotations on elements. I don’t always want to duplicate the annotations, just the design. I think just adding a menu item or keyboard shortcut to “Paste without annotations” would make sense.

Flexible table in Figma Design

I would like to suggest to have a table or grid element ready to use inside Figma Design. It would be wonderful to be able to: - Drag rows or columns around to rearrange them (not only in FigJam)- Change cell types and styles (add or remove icons, selection mode, etc.) These tweaks would make such a difference in my day-to-day work! Thanks so much for all you do 😊🍀

Dev Shop Licensing

We are a development shop that regularly hires external designers. We have to pay for each of them to access our Figma projects, even though they already have their own Figma subscriptions. It is frustrating and feels unnecessary, but it is not the main issue. The real problem is that we do not want external designers to have access to all of our projects. Creating a new team for each project would require us to pay for multiple licenses for our own developers and pay again for each external designer across every project. This level of overbilling is unacceptable to small dev shops. Is there a way to limit editor access to a single project within a team without requiring duplicate licensing fees?

Variables: Color alias with alpha / opacity (rgba ideally)

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: So what i want is that i can set blue/5 and then the opacity (which i dont want to capture in another colour variable) Now its only possible if i break the link with gray/75 - and then i loose the reference to that colour

Dismiss Memory Usage Banner

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this I’m getting the yellow warning banner about memory usage and it’s disrupting. I guess the warning is helpful though at 50% of memory used it doesn’t really seem like that’s almost out of memory. I wouldn’t mind it as much if there was a way to easily dismiss it instead of having to reload the tab every time it appears. An “x” to close would be good enough. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) — Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc. Anyone else find this disruptive? If you could dismiss it, when would you want it to reappear (e.g. never, each time you open the file, at a set usage amount, etc.)?

Stop automatically changing resizing parameters

I spend a lot of time undoing the automatic auto layout adjustments that Figma applies in order to maintain the existing layout structure. This is frustrating because I understand how all the resizing parameters work, and I only change the ones I want to change. But in an attempt to help me and retain the current layout, the UI changes parameters that were previously the way I wanted them. So while auto layout still saves me time, it also wastes my time by putting me in a position where I have to go through, layer by layer, undoing the auto-adjustments. (Usually changing a layer’s width or height from “fixed” back to “fill” or “hug”.) I understand some users may actually like this, and it’s hard to please everyone. I would be more than grateful for an option that allows me to disable this automatic behavior.

Feature Request: New Override Type – "Child" or "Slot"

Context and Problem Figma's current Instance Swap Override is a useful feature for swapping singular instances within a component. However, it becomes cumbersome and time-consuming when applied to more complex design patterns, such as: Managing dynamic content for cards, sidebars, and templates. Creating unique combinations of content within reusable components. Currently, designers must create a new component for each unique content combination, which leads to bloated libraries, repetitive work, and a loss of efficiency. This approach also lacks flexibility for managing dynamic layouts, which are more naturally represented in code through structures like parent-child relationships in HTML or Children props in React. Proposed Feature: Component "Child" or "Slot" Override Introduce a new override type, referred to as "Child" or "Slot," allowing component creators to define designated areas within a component where users can **drag and drop any content**. This feature would streamline th

LAUNCHED: Copy/Move variable groups into other collections

I have been playing around with creating variables but realized I would rather have groups in separate collections, but cannot move them. I would like to be able to duplicate an entire collection so I don’t have to manually re-create values and can remove what I don’t need from that collection OR simply be able to move groups into other collections.

Change opacity on a referenced color variable

So this boggles me. Why can’t I change (override) the opacity of a referenced color-variable, without having to detach it? To me a color and an opacity value are two different things. So if I want an opacity on my referenced color e.g. “Blue-950” I have to detach it and change the value to my liking, now it is not referenced to the variable collection anymore. A workaround is to add that “Blue-950” with the desired opacity in the variable collection and then reference that new “Blue-950-50-percent”. It is so annoying that you can’t change opacity on the fly without loosing reference!!!
