Feature Request: Preset auto layout and appearance on a file-by-file basis.

I work on multiple projects at the same time, and every time I use auto layout, the default gap is set to 8 and the padding to 0. I have to change these settings each time, which is quite frustrating and time-consuming. I really need a way to remember to do this. Instead, could we implement a feature in the file settings that allows me to preset these parameters? That way, my presets would automatically apply whenever I create something or use any shape, saving me the hassle of making adjustments each time and allowing me to work more efficiently.

All plans should offer more than 4 variable modes

It would be great if the professional plan offered more than 4 variable modes. Right now I want to set up a mode for each component size-- XS - XL, 5 sizes all together-- which puts me over the 4 limit for pro, but well under the 40 limit for enterprise, which is a quantity I will never need. And there’s no use case for enterprise at all for a team our size. I think 10-12 modes for pro would be perfect to give small teams like mine room to grow before we reach the scale where an enterprise plan would be worth consideration.

Figma Buzz - bulk uploading, exporting and csv

We’re currently exploring how we can integrate Figma Buzz into our educational resource creation workflow. We’re excited by Buzz’s potential, especially its responsive design and design quality, and are reaching out to share our feedback and some critical feature requests to help us adopt Figma more fully across our content pipeline. 💡 Our Use Case: Automated Resource Generation Our ideal workflow looks like this: Create Figma templates with defined text/image placeholders (e.g. "Title", "Question", "Image"). Programmatically replace these placeholders via an API using content from our backend. Export the resulting designs as individual PDFs, ready to attach to educational videos. This would allow our content team to generate polished, on-brand learning materials at scale - directly from our curation tools - with minimal manual input. 🔍 Key Gaps and Friction Points Feature Status Notes REST API for generation ❌ No current support for content generation via API.

Dark mode for FigJam

It’s just very bright, and I’d like to get some work done at night without killing my eyes. Please add dark mode. FigJam especially, but it’d be nice throughout. Yeah, just remember the user likes a dark mode, and make dark mode the default for everything: your website, this forum, Figma, …

LAUNCHED: Generate sticky notes from table data

With Miro, we are able to copy cells from a google sheet/excel, then paste them into Miro where each cell becomes an individual sticky note with respective colors applied. This is great for transcription and affinity diagramming during research. I’d LOVE to see this in FigJam 🙂

Properties Panel Selection Actions quite confusing.

In the properties panel to the right of the name of whatever you have selected some options pop up such as multi edit, select matching layers, use a mask and/or 3 dots for more options. What is odd is that when I select a variant for example from one component those options can be either wildly or subtly different than if I select a variant from another basically identical component. It almost seems random to me though I’m sure it is not. Is there a resource that could illuminate not so much what is showing when a selection is made but why that particular pop up icon is visible so as to get a better understanding of what inconsistencies might be happening on my end? Always curious.

Allow percentages for line height

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 absolute or relative

Add a setting to allow viewers to create branches on files in connected projects

We have a connected project with an outside vendor who is helping us create new components in one of our shared libraries. We’d like them to be able to create a branch on our existing library to submit a changed/new component without giving them full edit permissions. Full edit permissions would allow them to make changes to the file without branching or to merge changes without our approval. And we only want changes to be added with our approval. Having this sort of “viewer can create a branch” setting would eliminate the need for us to collaborate in a separate file before moving the component into our library. Sharing in case it might also be a helpful feature for others.

Better plugin window management (fixed sidebar, multiple windows, stacking etc.)

1. Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this I can open 1 plugin at time, the plugins are located only in plugin section. I don’t have any possibility to add plugin to UI (exp. sidebar). Also plugin windows can be opened only in Figma webview window. 2. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) example of sidebar for plugins 3. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation Does anyone else have same problems?

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.

Figma Make prototypes with Live Updates from the Design file

I've been using and testing Figma Make to create interactive prototypes based on the screens and flows I’ve already designed. It would be really interesting to speed up the design-to-code workflow if the prototype in Figma Make could be updated live. That way, I could iterate on changes and improvements in my design without having to go back to Make and write new prompts to explain those changes. This could further streamline the handoff process for animations and interactions by providing more structured code for developers.

Grid under featured in current state. Needs min and max widths and height on columns and rows, ability to select rows cols etc.

I was really excited when i learnt about the inclusion of grid in figma, but was disappointed to find that it is quite under featured. One of the main things holding it back is the ability to set min and max widths/heights on rows and columns, and possibly freeze a row/column too. The current solution of having separate components causes to many alignment issues to be useful. For this you would probably need some way of selecting individual rows and columns too. I don’t know what you have down as priorities for upcoming developments, but these would definitely help Grid be useful

LAUNCHED: Min and Max Width for Auto Layout

I would like to add a max-width to a text box while using auto layout to keep the word count per line at a reasonable minimum. Currently, I have the text element set to “Fill Container” which makes the text respond very nicely to the screen size. But because it is set to “Fill Container”, the text spans the entire width of the element which makes the text lines more difficult for users to read quickly. If a max-width was set, the component should respond until it reaches the max-width, which would help keep the line length down. I also feel like there are many other circumstances where max and min-width would be extremely helpful Anyone else having this issue? Or does anyone have a great fix/hack to get around it? Looking forward to seeing what you have to say. Cheers,

Ability to paste entire flows/prototypes into Figma Make

Hot take, Figma Make, in it’s current beta form, is underwhelming when it comes to being able take a design and turn it into a usable coded prototype quickly. This feature will have a huge impact on designer-developer workflows only when the speed to getting to a Make prototype is faster than getting to a noodle prototype. Until that happens, designers will continue to stick with what is fastest/most effective for them. Being able to provide Make with the entire context of a prototype + developer notes + design library inside a given file/page seems to be the best route to doing this. I hope the refactor needed to get to being able to provide access to all of this data is well underway, but if not, I’m putting my trust in the rest of the community to get some movement behind this idea here in the portal.

Change the order of exposed nested instances

It doesn’t look like there’s an obvious way to change the order of exposed nested instances. Right now the order seems to be based on reverse layer order. It’d be great if the order can be manually adjusted.

Slides: Copying slides into original template creates duplicate template

Some quick context: I recently created a basic Figma slides template. After using the template & theme to create an actual presentation, I identified some new slides that I would like to include into the original template. When copy pasting the slides that used the template into the original template file, it created a duplicate template with the same name for the slides that were pasted in, even though they used the original theme of the template. The main issue I have here is that when swapping the template to the original, it randomly shuffles the colors. So I have to adjust the entire slide. I feel like updating templates over time based on real usage is pretty common, and the current behavior makes it rather awkward. Thanks!

Importing Draw.io files

Enable Default Library at Project Folder Level

Our team is part of a larger organization, and all our Figma files are in one Figma Team for which I am a team admin. We have some Default Libraries set for the entire team, but need the additional ability to set Default Libraries for specific project folders. I’m not seeing the settings to do this right now.

Buy what's left of Quark, go after print

Just saw the new sketching and fill tools appear. You’re on track to own vector production. Now go after raster/print (seriously)! Amazingly, Quark Xpress is still alive and seems to have developed some serious content-management tools. Buy them! Bring print production into a collaborative Figma space.

Mobile menu in Figma sites

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?
