When exporting designs with embedded videos from Figma (Slides) to PDF, the exported file currently shows only the first frame of each video. This creates issues, especially for logo animations or other motion graphics where the first frame may be empty or visually uninformative (e.g., logos that fade or draw in).Suggestion:Allow users to define a custom preview frame (poster frame) for each video element. This frame would be used as the static image in PDF exports (and possibly thumbnails or slides), ensuring clearer visual communication in offline or static formats.This would greatly improve PDF exports without requiring manual workarounds like overlaying screenshots.

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.

Our workflow is to decline all license requests that users make in the app.We require all users to create a ticket in Service-now and after getting approval from the appropriate Finance Director to manually approve the appropriate license (Full, Dev or Collab).I’m requesting a way to set all license requests to “decline” and tailor the email response to detail how to open a ticket for the license request.

I don’t use Figma all the time, I don’t want it to run anything on startup. It’s frustrating to manually remove Figma from Login Items, since it automatically adds itself there again. It would be nice to have at least an option to disable it in settings, or even better - remove that functionality at all, since it’s not user friendly. I want control over what and when the apps do at my workstation. P.S. If it’s needed for updates check - I’m more than okay to update on app start

We want our Figma file, which utilizes a shared library, to automatically change its status from "ready to dev" to "changes have been made" every time a change happens in that shared library.

This is so annoying. I shouldn’t have to use the web version to disable this. FIGMA should allow me to turn this off in the settings. I don’t use Figma every day and I certainly don’t want it to open every time I log in. Clearly, this has annoyed several users but you fail to listen. STOP FORCING ME TO OPEN FIGMA AT LOGIN!!

Please, for the love of God, add a keyboard shortcut for superscripting and subscripting. When I copy legal text over from an outside source, the superscripted trademark and copyright symbols do not carry over as superscripted. It is tedious to have to redo this in Figma and open the menu every time instead of using a keyboard shortcut.

Make a option while prototyping where it will instantly jump to the next path. Similar to how the 'after delay; would work but 0 milliseconds. This would be helpfull for if you want to do eventually keyframe animation instead of the basic smart animate option.

Hi Figma Community and Team,I'm a developer (with limited UI skills) who's been absolutely loving Figma Make – it's a game-changer for me!I'm thinking about upgrading to a Full Seat subscription mainly for this feature, but I'm trying to wrap my head around the AI credit system. The docs mention that *"about 50-70 Make prompts may consume 1 AI credit."*I'm struggling to visualize what counts as a "prompt." For example, if I ask for something reasonably complex like:"Generate a homepage for an e-commerce site. It needs to have both light and dark mode themes, a hero carousel banner, and display products in a card layout."Does anyone from the team or community have a rough idea of how many credits a single, multi-faceted prompt like that might consume? Is it closer to 1 credit, or would it be more because it's packing several instructions?My other big question is about the Full Seat subscription. I saw this note on the website:"Until then, we won’t be strictly enforcing credit limits for

Auto layout sometimes causes more problems than it solves.  When I get a set of wireframes from someone else, I find it causes a lot of wasted time trying to figure what objects are using it and shut it down for each one.There should be a setting to just turn Auto Layout off for the whole file. The way is works per object right now is a huge time waster in using this product.

Today I learned the move in transition is not supported when trying to create change to actions between variants of a component. This is frustrating as it limits my ability to use component interactions to reduce complexity of large prototype flows. Please fix.   

Hi Figma!I’m a developer working with a team creating a design system and React component library. Our designers use tokens for pretty much everything, and a key part of our workflow is exporting the tokens as CSS variables, which can then be used in our React component library.To do this, we use a community-created plugin called Variables2CSS. It’s fantastic that someone created this plugin (thank you to the author!), but it presents us with one main problem: we need to be in Design Mode in Figma for the export to work correctly. If we’re in developer mode when we use the plugin to export the tokens, some tokens go missing.This is a problem within my team, as we need to purchase a designer license for each developer who needs to export the tokens. As my employer will only pay for one designer license for this purpose I am stuck being the only developer in my team who is able to do this. It’s a hassle for me, and if I go on holiday, or I’m off sick, the team is stuck and development is

I just want to adjust the page settings for each page “frame” so to speak so I can make it wider. It’s not clear that this is possible.

Right now, Figma’s Slice tool can only export an image of a selected area. Cool, but… what if it could do more?Sometimes I only need to show part of a layout — maybe to explain something to devs or teammates, or just to isolate a section without duplicating the whole frame. But the only way now is to turn the frame into a component, copy it, and resize manually. With Auto Layout, that gets annoying fast.So why not let Slice project the selected area right on the canvas — like a live cropped view of the original content? It’d be great for documentation, visual notes, or floating explanations without messing with the actual layout.Basically: make Slice not just for export, but also for viewing.

Right now, tying layer visibility to a variable means if the boolean is false = layer is hidden. It’d be great if we could invert this functionality (boolean is false = layer is shown) on a per-layer basis as I need to show some layers and hide others depending on the state of the variable. Anyone else run into this?

My suggestion for Figma is to add a “slot” functionality to components. This would allow designers to create more flexible and customizable components, by adding empty slots or placeholders within a component. Users could then insert their own content or elements into these slots, without having to ungroup or modify the component itself. This functionality would save time and increase efficiency for designers, while also promoting a more consistent design system across a project or organization. I believe this feature would greatly enhance the flexibility and usability of Figma’s component system, and would be a valuable addition to the platform.

Hello, I have a student (education) account on Figma, which should include all the Professional plan features. However, the option to enable Figma AI tools in the team settings does not work for me. Does anyone know if AI tools are available for education accounts, or how I can properly enable them?

I’d really like to be able to lock a layer, but continue to work on its child layers. This would be particularly useful when working within a layer within an auto-layout.

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: but it would be more convenient to be able to do it with just one. Just give me a Boolean toggle when the variable is used to say if the variable should be inverted or not.

Currently, using Figma component boolean properties, it only shows when true and hides when false. What if you could switch those around? For example, when something is true, it could show some elements, and hide others. For example, a product thumbnail- when “on sale” is true, show sale icon, show strikethrough price, but also hide original price and replace it with a bolded/colorful/what have you of price. Or if ‘Out of Stock’ is true, show all the ‘out of stock’ stuff material, but also hide the ‘add to cart’ button. Stuff like that. Currently you have to create new variants just to show + hide things at the same time, or add redundant switches like ‘In Stock’ and ‘Out of Stock’ and just make sure they never have the same state.

Would be useful (and a better UX) if keyboard shortcuts existed for adding rows and columns to a FigJam table. Tabbing (a common method to create a new row in other apps) causes focus to jump to a different item on the page (e.g., another sticky, text box), which is jarring and disorienting when trying to capture information in a group setting; lose your spot, lose your train of thought, focus goes to getting back to the table instead of listening to the speaker. One alternative or starting point could be providing those as menu commands, which opens up the ability for Mac users to define their own keyboard shortcuts using MacOS > keyboard > app shortcuts.

When working with more complex auto-layouts in Figma, I find myself accidentally changing frames/instances from Fill to Fixed or Hug by double clicking on the edge. In some cases I don’t catch myself and only discover later that parts of a prototype are not responsive. Is there a way to disable this or change the behavior to require a key modifier or something? 

I am an EDU account user. I used Make AI to design an interface for an educational platform. After less than 2 days and a total of 50 versions, I was alerted with 'You've reached your current limit. Your credits will reset on November 1, 2025.' This consumption of 3,000 credits per month is too fast. Moreover, there is no place in the backend where I can see the current credit usage in real-time, which is very unreasonable. The consumption data is not transparent. Now I have to wait until November 1 to use it again, which seriously affects my ability to work normally.

ProblemCurrently, there’s no way to bind the Flex Direction property (horizontal / vertical) to a variable or boolean condition. This makes it impossible to dynamically switch layouts inside a component using variables or modes. Designers are forced to create duplicate components or manually toggle the direction. Proposed SolutionAllow flexDirection to be controlled via a variable or boolean property, similar to how alignment, spacing, and padding can already be managed.Example syntax:flexDirection = isVertical ? "VERTICAL" : "HORIZONTAL" Expected Benefits  Enables adaptive, single-source components without duplicates. Improves token-driven and responsive design workflows. Makes component logic consistent with existing variable bindings.   PriorityMedium–High — essential for scalable, adaptive design systems using Figma variables and Auto Layout.
