Suggest a Feature

As a designer I would like to record my prototype screen or export it as a gif so I can use it in presentations and send quick examples in the team group. It would be great to have the same feature then Principle to record or export the prototype to gif. Does anyone have the same need? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

Every time I create a new variable mode, I have to duplicate the full set of variables that already exist in something like light mode or a base brand. This makes it very difficult to maintain and to visualize which variables are actually different for dark mode or across different brands. I’m not updating all the dimension tokens (variables), corner radii, fonts, borders, etc across every single mode.On the engineering side, I like to merge my tokens into the foundation/base token set so that only the overrides apply while original unchanged tokens remain constant across themes and brands. I’m able with more work to modify Figma’s token exports to fit my engineering needs at least. But Figma makes token management very difficult on the design side, which should be the source of truth! ProposalWhen creating a new Variable Mode, let me choose to leave all variables blank and which other mode to merge(

Hi Figma developers! It turns out that exporting Figma fonts in JSON format provides the result that looks smth like this: "style": { "fontFamily": "Quattrocento Sans", "fontPostScriptName": "QuattrocentoSans-BoldItalic", "fontSize": 72, "fontWeight": 700, "italic": true, "letterSpacing": 0, "lineHeightPercent": 100, "lineHeightPx": 84.375, "lineHeightUnit": "INTRINSIC_%", "textAlignHorizontal": "CENTER", "textAlignVertical": "CENTER" }, for a page like this:

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.

Hello, im working on a reading of overlays interaction from the Rest Api but im not able to get the background-color/Position of it (see the picture first picture) It’s also unavailable on dev mod : We can cleary see the animation, duration etc but not the background/position...Am I missing something like it’s available somewhere? Or maybe is it a bug? But I can’t figure where to get this datas beside using a Plugin, and my goal is to mot use a plugin at allhere are the only datas I can get :                                 {                                  "trigger": {                                    "type": "ON_CLICK"

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 impro

I signed up to view someone else’s work. I immediately unchecked the box called “Send me occasional emails…”. Weeks later, I am still receiving blog-type emails with no unsubscribe link. There’s no result for unsubscribe when I search your site. When I tried to send a message to support about it (while not logged in), I got an error submitting the message. So I logged in again to check my settings, and at the bottom of the page it says I can unsubscribe at any time - but there’s no link to say how. Y’all know this is illegal, right? Kindly do better.

I would be a time saver to be able to define a default color (it currently is 000000) for new typography elements. I never design with pure black. if I could use a variable color as my type color, when I create a new text area, it could automatically have the dark variable value. Print software, such as illustrator lets us define a black. you should too.

Is there a way to better organize prototype sections in Figma, similar to how we organize pages? I’m asking because I’m working on a project where having some kind of “breathing space” between navigable flows would be very helpful. For now, I created a frame to segment things, but I’d like to know if there’s a more appropriate solution.

No brainer. I’ve either had to ask clients to record a loom of themselves going through a Make prototype or me having to screenshot EVERY SINGLE PAGE of the prototype then send them PDFs so they could comment on it.If there’s a new QOL feature that’s gonna be added to Figma Make, it should be commenting.

Do Figma “line-height” variables support percentages or proportional values?I tried setting number variables like 1 or 1.2 to use as line-height ratios,but it doesn’t seem to work as expected. Is there a workaround or recommended method for this?I’m honestly surprised that such a fundamental feature might be missing. I keep thinking I must be overlooking something rather than it not existing.

Hi,I’ve noticed something about the “Follow” feature that’s been bothering me a bit.When someone follows me in Figma, there isn’t a clear or persistent indicator on my side that I’m being followed. I can’t really tell who is following me, when they start, or if someone is currently viewing my screen.That lack of visibility feels uncomfortable, especially in team environments. I might be navigating early drafts, messy explorations, internal notes, or sensitive frames without realizing someone is actively watching. It’s not necessarily about hiding anything — it’s more about awareness and transparency.From a workflow perspective, it can also be disruptive. If someone is following me for a review or to understand something specific, I might switch contexts or move too quickly without knowing they’re there.In larger teams or companies, this could even raise minor security or compliance concerns, since work-in-progress or confidential material might be

I'm building a responsive alert banner and trying to achieve a behavior similar to fit-content in CSS. Here's what I need: The banner container stretches to 100% width, Inside, there's a button and a text label, The text should stay on one line and hug its content until it reaches the limit of the container, Once it can't fit anymore, it should wrap onto multiple lines (essentially behave like fill). Think of it as:"hug content until there's no space left → then behave like fill".This should happen dynamically, depending on the container width,so no fixed max width.Is th

{Commenting as Guests} Clients wanting to give access to prototypes to temporary teams without the need to create accounts as guests only, allowing comments and feedback within Figma prototypes. Possibly allowing these users to make comments on prototypes as Guests with temporary names.

As per this discussion - How to disable 'observe' mode - #5 by Dave2 - I think it would be useful to be able to turn off ‘observe mode’. It is very annoying being watched while I work, unless I specifically am trying to share/demonstrate something. It is the digital version of someone looking over your shoulder. I dont want to have to remove people’s permissions from the file just to stop them digitally stalking me.

Is there a way to add ‘Match Size’ when using the Paste to Replace function? (CMD+Shift+R) I have tried a few plugins, but Paste to Replace is more smooth and quick.

Please check the video attachment to see how Xara handles the color tweaking; it would be great if Figma implemented something like this.I have found couple of plugins that enable similar function, but unfortunatelly its not the same.Plugins:Perceptual Colori Color Adjustments Like PhotoShopPerceptual Colorizer

Just like driving width and height, I want to dynamically position elements in weird ways too. But not weird like this:

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?

Okay so I've found 2 things that are pretty annoying when dealing with the client-facing side of designing. 1. I typically only share prototype links with clients to give proper feedback. I don't like giving them back-end access to the files because they're usually messy, but I can if I prep a new file. So, I've noticed that when I comment on the design file from the backend version, yes it does show on the prototype side but the client receives an email saying I've tagged them in a comment with a link to said comment. When they click this link to go to the comment, they're redirected to gain access to the backend rather than the prototype side. This is extremely frustrating. I (and my team) should be back to comment from the backend with it feeding through to the prototype properly. 2. It would be amazing to be able to stop allowing comments on prototypes. When we have a creative that has been signed off, being able to stop allowing comments mea

The default UI font-size is really small (icons are mostly okay), They so small that I can hardly read the comments and the page/layer names in the panels (maybe I’m a little old or my laptop is more zoomed out) but it would be great if they are some user-friendly feature for people with weaker eye power like things like thicker guide lines and zoom in on words similar to PSD preference UI font sizeLike OMG how to read this? Japanese/chinese text are so small it is hardly readable on characters with more strokes 

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%).

Please answer the questions as soon as possible. Any approximate date to next release.

Teams would like the ability to archive branches that have been merged in their own time instead of them automatically being archived and having to view them in the history tab. They’d like the designers to choose when to archive those branches. Teams want to be able to see a history of merged branches and actually see them, but not necessarily restore to that branch.  We’d like this to be an option to turn on per project or in admin settings.  Thanks!
