Suggest a Feature

I get so many bogus requests for Dev seats from our team members who accidentally click the request button because of how it is placed in the UI. It is very annoying. Could you please make it so that once a request is denied a member can’t re-request Dev seat?

Has anyone found a way to copy, transfer or move the new local variables to another file or collection? Just created around 400 color variables manually in the wrong file and would hate having to re-create them in the correct one 😅

Hi Figma Team, I’m a regular Figma user and truly appreciate how powerful and intuitive your design tools are. One thing I’ve often felt limited by during prototyping is the lack of a smooth scroll experience — especially when simulating navigation or scroll-to-section flows. It would be amazing if we could have true smooth scrolling, similar to how real websites behave (with easing, momentum, and natural flow). This would greatly help us mimic real-world experiences more accurately during prototype testing. Hope this is something you consider for future updates. Thanks for all the great work!

Now that we have variables support for text styles, it’s taking a while to update all the properties to match text variables. It’d be really, really helpful to be able to apply variables to multiple text styles at once, by selecting all font styles that we want to apply a variable to and editing the property, since most of these are shared between different styles. With that feature, text migration to variables would be super easy and seamless.

Sidebar sections are crucial for our team. We recently downgraded from Organization to Professional and the sidebar sections were removed. I understand they are only for Organization and Enterprise plans, but I ask that you make them available to all paid plans, since there are many organizations with smaller teams who cannot afford Organization or Enterprise plans.

Right now, the “Update from main file” modal is the least helpful modal imaginable: No indication of what or where the conflict is. All I see is a zoomed-out view of my “Layout & Content” library page with nothing highlighted or listed out anywhere. And with this information, I have to choose whether to keep these changes or keep my branch. I manage a design system for a team of 10 designers, split up into 3 pods. This is a nightmare every time. Items with changes should be highlighted, and those changes should also be listed on the left-hand side. Edit: And would you look at that, I chose to keep the branch, arbitrarily, and the next screen actually shows me what the update involves! Why wouldn’t this be on the first screen? (I’ve edited out the content for NDA reasons) Now I actually have to go back to the previous screen and choose again if I’ve made a mistake.

I can’t seem to delete other peoples comments they have left. I am the creator / owner of the figma file and can only delete my own comments. Wondering if this is this normal? Why can’t we delete other peoples comments? The only solution I have found is to copy and paste the frames into a new design file which seems somewhat absurd?

I am using Figma from almost 2 years. It’s a great tool. Previously I was using Windows 10 yet recently switched to Linux(Ubuntu). Figma doesn’t have any official release for Linux. There are some Unofficial desktop versions but they are “BUGGY”. I request you guys to release an official Figma desktop app for Linux.

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

Especially with the recent Variables update. It’s more important than ever to have the ability to migrate all the old Styles with new Variables. However, the current behavior is that it only matches whatever “name” is the same. This makes the whole swapping library a very underpowered feature. Ideally, it should simply allow us to pick Variables or Styles to swap with the old library. This has been requested back in 2021.

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

It’s frustrating that Figma still doesn’t support background blur in overlay settings. We can tweak color and opacity, but no blur—something that’s essential for many interface styles. A common workaround is adding a blurred background directly to the overlay component frame, but that breaks things like dismissing the overlay by clicking outside or smooth blur animations. Blur is so common in UI design today, it really should be a built-in feature at this point.

Can I edit the variables defined in a published library locally? There is a library file (Say File A) with a collection of local variables defining some string and numbers shown on a component. The component is published (with all variables too) I added this component to another file, say File B, but when I want to edit those strings and numbers locally in this File B, I can no longer see the these variables, nor editing them. Seems like I can only edit the published component in the library File A (if I have edit access) and this will change all the instances too. Can I instead edit it locally, meaning edit the values of these publish variables only in File B?

I was super pumped to start using grids for my layouts until I learned of one fatal flaw that killed my excitement :( The inability to set a row height to hug is simply a deal-breaker for me. Also no variables support for gaps? really?

Annotations can be hard to find and are often critical. A central spot that allows me to make sure I see them all would be very welcome. I’d suggest clicking an item on the list in the panel should focus the element and its annotation in the main canvas. Thanks.

As a designer, I’m frequently mocking up flows in which a user must scroll down to take an action. In order to accomplish this, I end up removing auto layout and manually moving the content to the intended position. It would be excellent if we could set a scroll position in design mode, or simply use a scroll tool to click and drag the content.

I’ve started using Figma Buzz to create templates for our clients. I love that I can publish a template, send them a link and then they can use a copy for their own uses without accidentally breaking the design when the guidelines are locked. I also love the bulk create feature within it. There’s just one thing I’m struggling to be able to do. Within our company we create thumbnail covers for all our design files and Figjam boards and slides so that when we see them within our team folders we can easily identify which project is which. These usually have details like what type of file it is, the project name, the client etc. When I add one of these in to my Figma Buzz file, it’s visible as a page in the published template link. I would like to find a way to hide this from the published template link, so that it’s only visible to us. If there’s already a way to do this, please let me know 😄 but if not I would love to suggest this as a feature.

Default artboard sizes can be added, so that it will be help full to start design and also for prototyping it will be very useful.

I’d like to insert an image into a cell in a table in FigJam so that it moves with the table as it expands and changes size. Currently, I’m just having to drag pictures around with the table as it expands which is fine for one or two images but I have many!

copy comments from a Figma file to another one while duplicating/copying content/designs.

Hi everyone, I’ve been dealing with a bug for years now. We all know that to make a layer stretch with the frame horizontally, we can set its constraints to “Left + Right.” However, when the layer is set to “Fixed” in the Prototype tab, it’s no longer possible to select “Left + Right” in the constraints. I noticed that several people have reported this issue in the past few years(Here). Is there any chance this could be fixed soon? (It’s really frustrating!)

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.

As far as I saw for now, it’s not possible to create an interaction that drives the user to a certain page section. It’s helpful to be able to assign the html tag to our ‘blocks’ and define if it’s a div, section, and so on; but we need a way to assign ID to the divs so we can redirect to specific sections on the screen from everywhere in our site. Example: inside a page we can have several sections (about the company, about the team, about the company values, about the open roles and career paths) and we could include those sections in a footer menu to easily redirect users to their specific section without the need for them to scroll looking through to find the info they are interested in. It’s a normal micro interaction in websites, and it would be nice to have it included in the final feature.

Currently, when layout guides are added to a component, they also appear in all instances of that component across the design file. This causes significant visual clutter especially in high-fidelity UI screens where the focus should be on the content and layout, not the guide structure used during component creation. We’d like to suggest that layout guides be visible only in the source component, and not inherited by its instances.
