Suggest a Feature

Yellow attention banner - why must the whole organisation see this? Can the message be only shown to admins and not the whole team as we are flooded with emails and chat messages about it plus you can see the email addresses and the names of the responsible persons. We suggest to not annoy the whole team with this.

Hey guys! I'm a product designer and a Figma lover. For along of those years, I saw Figma grown up and become even better, bringing to us designers a lot of new possibilities to work. But this is my first time that I want to request a feature ASAP, since creates a lot of pain. Hope everyone see this topic as something really useful too.So, I usually works on web applications and thus I need to design both mobile, tablet and desktop version of the web pages.And, when we speak about Design System, we need to make sure that our components will adapt on each screen, no matter the viewport size.So, bringing this discussion to a real case: I made a component for my DS called “chip” with some variants as we can see on this print: The width’s component need to follow their inner content to keep growing on the sides as we can see:but this growing effect (which is possible glad the ‘hug’) need to stop when reach the max width from the chip’s parent container and this, Figma can’t help me. So, th

Feature Request: Per-user layout guidesCurrently, all guides in a Figma file are shared across collaborators. When multiple people work in the same file, guides overlap and create clutter.Request: Allow each user to have private guides that only they can see, with the option to toggle visibility of others’ guides.This would make collaborative design cleaner, reduce visual noise, and let each designer work efficiently without interfering with others’ layouts.

We have a typography section when we want to scope variables. What about a Layout Grid section in Scoping mode? Here’s a simple Photo for maybe a better understanding: Wouldn’t it make the work a little bit easier/more comfortable/better? Even if it is just a 1% improvement.

Hi All, we currently use the swap library feature for our styles. We were wondering tho if there is going to be support for swapping variables in the future as well? I know that Figma is currently working on extended collections, but the current omission of swapping variables based on a different library seems a bit weird

Currently Figma make allows you to have different pages for your prototype. But for some reason when the app updates i dont really have a way to go to the specific page that was changed. For eg. one of my prototypes has a component to provide email before you can move forward. So any time the app updates when i’ve changed any of the pages Later in the flow, I have to go through the entire flow again just to get to that page, and then ask it to make changes, and then we go over it again and again and again. I have seen it in other tools like Builder.io, where it doesn't matter what I change, I can go to a specific page from the page selector at the top. Is Figma going to get one of these? 

I’m embedding a form and would like to have scrolling on this embed and/or ability for the figma embed to resize on any change to avoid scrolling.

I am extremely excited to motivate for Figma slides for decks, and the ability to use components and even prototypes in here.My one concern is that if a component is used in a Figma sildes, and the component is updated externally, it is not updated in Slides and needs to be re-placed. Are there any plans to make this relationship persistent? Prototypes DO update when placed in Slides.

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

Is it possible to create my own custom shapes for use as shapes in FigJam? I am drawing complex process flows, and I need to use a few vector grphics (for example, an octagon) which I created with Adobe Illustrator as FigJam ‘shapes’ so that I can annotate them with text and connect them to other shapes with connector lines. I haven’t been able to find instructions on how to do this. Is this doable? If so, please let me know how. Thank you in advance.

Hello, I couldn’t find a feature in Figma where we can constrain trigger or hotspot bounds to a vector shape instead of a rectangular bounding box. The current version doesn’t support the design use cases similar to those below (eg: interactive pie charts) where transparent pixels are ignored in a non-rectangular shape because the hotspot bounding box is always rectangular. It would be nice to constrain the hotspot area to the desired shape instead of a rectangle. Please check the attached Figma file. Hotspot bounds.fig (7.0 MB) Is it possible to include HTML image maps so the hotspot shape can use a polygonal shape? Please check the URL below. w3schools.com

A lot of AI features in Figma so far seem to be generative, which IMO is mostly fruitless for the core auidence as current models are not capable of new problem solving, only generating variations of the combined knowledge of everything that has been observed before, without understanding the context of decisions made to implement design choices as well. Where I can see see value add is in other aras. QA for example - perhaps pointing a dev URL at the tool to see how front-end have developed the designs and comparing to what was in the original figma (visually, not comapring the code generated by Figma, which is often not all that helpful in established systems) - could help catch mistakes and also documwent intentional changes in the design to development process. 

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!!!

Could you please add the option to show width overlay in figma make, it would really help debug breakpoints when prototyping. Thanks

Maybe I missed it but I can’t seem to add a (URL) link to a object in Figma Slides, would be nice. I can do with workarounds for now.

Video settings have a dedicated button when not in Design Mode. When in Design Mode this button is nowhere to be found. So if I want to adjust the settings of a video I must get out of Design Mode first. Is that intended? Not Design Mode Design Mode        

Setting durations, easing curves, delays, especially for Smart Animate animations are essential tools when making presentations in Figma in order to make fluid ‘Keynote-like’ transitions. Unfortunately these are completely absent in Figma Slides at the moment, making it pretty much useless to our team. We will keep making our presentations in Figma Design and linking everything by hand🥲 until these crucial settings are implemented in Figma Slides…

Just like Microsoft Powerpoint, we should be able to add duration for the transitions between our slides to make it not look like we are in a hurry. Currently, I think the default duration is 500ms and it’s too fast for me. I want to make it gently transition from one slide to another. The animations are great, but if you could also add more transitions, it would make it even more better.

For now the only solution I found is to switch the Image fill to Crop and to drag the edge of the image manually until it flips. This is cumbersome and not very precise because of the overlap of the image’s edges and the crop bounding box edges. A simple set of mirror buttons would be super helpful! Thx!

Just wanted to add a bit more context! Many agencies and independent designers build full visual systems in Figma, then rebuild everything manually in Divi for WordPress. A plugin or native export option could save hours of repetitive work and help preserve design-system consistency.I’d love to test or even provide feedback if your team ever explores a Figma-to-Divi workflow. It could really empower smaller studios that rely on WordPress as their delivery platform.

I would like to be able to apply variables to sweeps, etc. If this were possible, I think it would be possible to expand the dynamic expression of prototype.

A simple option to randomize a pool of sticky notes, without using a plugin. Seems to very useful for researchers. 

Firstly great job Figma Font variables are here!!! Figma tutorial: Variables for typography The only thing missing is the use of percentages in the line-height property. You can not use a percentage in the line-height as it only accepts variables that are a number type. Although the variables for line-height caters for pixel (absolute) line-heights (10,12,14)- it does not accommodate relative line heights. In other words you can’t use percentage variables for line heights that are a percentage of the font size (100%, 120%,150%). Interestingly …You can use a variable for letter-spacing ( which accepts a number variable - but reads it as a percentage) - the challenge remains that line heights by default are absolute not percentages - even though you can input a percentage. Percentages allow greater flexibility and less calculations Word around would be to allow formula in a variable e.g. =[variable] * 1.5 Or figuring out a way for the line height to be toggle between absolu

Currently, Figma Slides on the mobile app only allows users to view and run slides. However, when giving a presentation, many of us connect our computer to a projector to display the slides while wanting to use our phone as a companion device to view presenter notes. It would be extremely helpful if the Figma mobile app could sync in real time with the slides being presented on desktop, so that the presenter can:  See their notes directly on the mobile app Follow along with the current slide in sync with the presentation Use the phone as a discreet presenter tool, without needing a second screen or printed notes  This would bring Figma Slides closer to the functionality of other professional presentation tools and make it much more practical for real-world use. I hope the Figma team will consider adding this feature, as it would significantly improve the experience for presenters using Figma Slides in professional settings.
