Anyone Tried the Latest Update for Orca Slicer?

Hey everyone,I’ve been using Orca Slicer for a while and really enjoy its features, but I just saw that a new release is out. Has anyone here tested the orca slicer latest version yet?I’m curious about what improvements or fixes it brings compared to the previous builds. Specifically, I’d like to know if there are noticeable changes in print quality, speed, or support generation.Also, does it remain stable on different printers? Any feedback, pros, or cons would be super helpful before I update.

Can I hide my chat with Figma Make when I share the prototype with customers or PMs?

I create a concept in Figma Make and want to test it with the team and potentially with customers, but they can see my underbelly chat. Is there a way to hide the chat?

How do I turn off AI suggestion pills?

In Preferences there’s the option to turn off text suggestions, but that’s not it.“Your image looks a little blurry”, “Find more like this” — thanks for trying to be helpful, but it appears right on top of the toolbar and is highly distracting. Info pills there should appear to show results of my actions, otherwise it’s disruptive to the flow.Moreover, “your image looks a little blurry” isn’t even working correctly. I tried to understand the logic, but it seemingly appears randomly and not even once it appeared when I was actually working with an image layer.As for “Find more like this” — no idea what it does and why it appears when I’m pasting an image into another image layer to replace the fill.

Fr/Percent units for more control over auto layout content

Although I find the new autolayout UI extremely convoluted and overdesigned, the ‘hug/fill parent’ feature is great. However, It would be immensely helpful to have more control over how the elements fill the parent. Currently, the only option is for the elements to fill the remaining space, but oftentimes, I need certain elements to take up a certain proportion. Example: I need element-1 to take up 2fr (~66%) and the rest to take up 1fr (~33%). It would be a game-changer if we could use ‘fr’ units. Framer does this beautifully and it’s vital for efficient, adaptive layout workflows:

Components in text

Hello, it would be nice to have the option to insert floating components inside text (like Emojis). Use case would be for signs or infos in complex dashboards. Its a hustle to do this now manually and also set kind of boundingboxes to sync different heighs of text and component. Regards

Need a way to export Figma Make and make it run locally

I used the Figma Make export tool to generate a React site, and it initially worked beautifully — it saved me an incredible amount of time. I was able to deploy the site and fortunately saved the generated source code. However, the export only included the source files, not the necessary config files (package.json, tailwind.config.js, tsconfig.json, vite.config.ts), which makes it extremely difficult to rebuild or modify the project. After many attempts and major code changes, I still can't get it working — especially the CSS.Worse, after using the tool again with a second prompt, the entire project broke and became unbuildable, throwing errors (specifically from figma_app.min.js). There is no way to undo this or roll back. While there is a "Save local copy" feature, there's no way to open it again — a major missing feature that could have saved the project.

Improve variable dependency visualization

We currently have different libraries in which we store different levels/layers of Figma variables (encoding design tokens). In our current set up, we have a Semantic library, with variables pointing to variables in a Themes (light/dark modes) library, and those point to colours in a Primitives library. Right now, there isn’t an easy way of seeing the library in which a referenced variable exists. If I have a variable x referencing y, it seems like I need to try editing x to see where y is coming from. Tokens Studio has this great visualisation that you can open in a browser from the plugin in Figma. It’s built using https://reactflow.dev/. I guess the same could be made for Figma variables, but we don’t even need a fancy solution like that one. Within Figma, even a sticky header would make things less painful. And a “variable explorer” view would make things so much clearer, even if it only let you see one full path through the aliasing graph at a time.

Title case isn’t accurate

The title case isn’t accurate. As it also capitalizes: articles (such as “a,” “an,” and “the”) conjunctions (such as “and,” “but,” and “or”), and prepositions (such as “at,” “by,” “of,” “to,” and “on”). In my opinion, the better naming would be “Capitalize”. Figma team can also consider adding “Title Case” and “Sentence Case” options separately.

"Empty" Auto Layout Frame keeps the size of last hidden child

Hi, I’m not sure if this is new since the May update, but I wonder why “empty” (all elements hidden) Auto Layout Frames keep the size of the last hidden child (and I do not mean last in the list, but the last element to have been toggled out of view by the user), making them not-0px high even with nothing in them. See here a file with a Frame with three hidden rectangle: the Frame keeps the size of the last child rectangle to have been hidden. When adding a 0-px Frame to the AL frame, and toggling this 0-px Frame off last, the container goes 0-px. In my opinion, empty AL Frames should have a height of 0. What do you think?

We need a Master Slide for Figma Slides, and variables would be nice.

Hi,I’m trying to transition the agency I work for onto Figma Slides from Keynote. One of the blockers I’m having is that Figma Slides does not feature a Master Slide for the beginning of every document. I have created a master design file containing variables, components etc so that my colleagues can cherry pick any slide design they want, but obviously the components being pulled through are always instances, so changing something as trivial as a client name in the header throughout the doc is a ‘find and replace’ action which is a bit hackie, therefore the need for a Master Slide.It would also be nice to see variables in Figma Slides so you can change the font family rather than having to go into every style and changing it there.

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.

Add 'Variable Name' parameter within Figma Editor Search box

I need to be able to see which Layers are using a particular Variable in order that I would know if I can safely remove a variable or not. Hence, please add a parameter within the Search bar called “Variable Name”. Or you may include how many instances are using a particular variable within the Variables Page, or within the Edit Variable modal as shown in the screenshot.Lastly, please allow Gradients to be added as variable. Thank you!

Sort selected colors in "Selection colors"-section in alphabetical order

Problem: It’s difficult to get an overview of which colors are being used in a document Solution: All selected colors are in alphabetical order. This way you are able to see if there are duplicates

Figma and Figam in single file

Hi, I am working on a problem and my process starts with Figjam file, later I will be moved to Figma. I would greatly appreciate if I can create a page for Figjam within Figma file itself so that I have central place for all my problems/features in one place. This reduces my file clutter in design also. Easier to manage and control the context in both ways.

Figma Buzz rename title with spreadsheet

When creating multiple assets from a template using CSV data (e.g., one row per person), each generated frame/file keeps the same name as the original template.For example: if I generate 20 assets for 20 people, all files are named “Template” or “Fichier”, which makes it difficult to sort or manage exports afterwards. It would be very helpful if we could assign a line data to the name of the template.

Quick access to emoji in comments

Hi,I would like to see faster quick emoji menu when hovering over comment in figma. Something like MS Teams does: Right now figma requires one more click and it opens huge popover with all emojis with is not ideal solution in my opinion.

Text in shapes/sticky notes should auto–adjust dynamically

As a user I want the text to auto-adjust: in this way I can write sticky notes different in length (without breaking them in height).

Swap variables in library

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

Make Back Button on Desktop App

We sometimes link component to another component in another page.On desktop app, it will be very convenient if we can go back to previous page instead of having to look for the figma page we came from manually.

Search bar in selection list of Variants

I am actively using Variants, but there is not enough search in the Variants selection list in component. In my Design System I decided to design one basic component: 1 button, 1 input field, 1 icon … etc. I implement the rest of the variations and states in Variants. I’ve in my base 16px Icon component 34 Variants of icons, in base 24px Icon as many. Search bar would be of great help: Does anyone use Variants like me? How did you solve this navigation (Search) problem? 😊

Shortcut to publish library and automatically update files

My team and I are currently having the inconvenience of having to publish our library every single time we make even a small change (like a font size increase, color change, etc.) and then switching to the working file and manually updating the library. Due to the nature of the project we do this quite frequently and having to publish – switch file – update every single time to see the changes in our designs turns out very time consuming if you add it up. It would be amazing if Figma could integrate a shortcut for automatically updating a library and automatically updating the files it is being used on (like a cmmd+S shortcut!), of course not everybody might want to have this so it would also be nice to be able to turn this shortcut on and off.

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?

Make Dev Mode Annotations Visible to All

Please make Dev Mode Annotations visible by all roles, not just Full Dev Mode seats. This can become costly for users needing context but not all the other dev-mode features. Here’s the scenario: We have a dashboard, with cards showing a customer’s account status. This status can be mapped from multiple back-end statuses, to show just one front-end status. For example, any of the following could be mapped to a single status known to the customer as “Completed”: canceled, terminated, sold, complete, etc. This is something that the developer needs to reference, but then also the PM needs to reference in writing tickets (who doesn’t need full dev-mode access), the QE needs to reference for testing automations, and various other individuals on our team. Placing it in a comment makes it less clearly attached to the specific piece of the design, and requires us to keep documentation dispersed among different tools (Jira, Confluence, Figma etc). Simply making Dev mode annotations visible to v
