Pin Folder to Top

It would be great if a Folder or File could be pinned to the top of the list within a Team. This would make key files or references easily findable for people on a large Team.

Alignment Options in Image Fills

As I was looking for a way to do this natively in Figma, I came across this concept article on Medium. In the article, Андрей Насонов (Andrey Nasonov) describes adding the option to choose alignment in the image settings beyond the default centered. This would be a simple but huge improvement to image settings, especially for responsive design. Here’s his example of how that might look on the Properties Panel for images: If anyone has found any way to work around this other than individually cropping images for different container widths, pls hmu! 🙏

Allow pasting from Illustrator as Vector

When I copy assets from Illustrator and then paste into Figma, it pastes as a raster image. Keep it as a vector when I do this workflow.

Comments for team and comments for customers

As a project manager I give feedback on the designs of my team before the costumer sees the design. We don’t want the costumers to see the comments we give each other. So it would be nice to have comment section only for team members. Also a chat would be nice. Does anyone else experience this? Is there a plugin for team comments?

Image Cropping from 1 side (holding Ctrl) doesn't work anymore

Hey, what happened with cropping raster image? Previously function worked as simple as holding Ctrl and dragging the edge. Now it crops from both sides. Do you have a new Art Director, Figma? Please fire him asap!

Text Wrapping and Hyphenation for Better Layouts

Dear Figma Team,I am a big Figma fan and want to fully transition from Adobe, I’ve identified two key text-related SIMPLE features that would greatly improve Figma’s layout design capabilities: Text Wrapping Between Text Boxes Figma currently lacks the ability to wrap text between multiple text boxes, making multi-column layouts cumbersome. A native text threading feature (like Adobe indesign) would allow text to flow dynamically between boxes, especially when resizing frames. Hyphenation for Improved Text Alignment Long paragraphs in Figma often result in uneven spacing at the edges. A hyphenation feature (like Adobe Indesign) would automatically add dashes to break words at line ends, improving readability and visual consistency. These features would make Figma more versatile for typography-heavy designs and streamline workflows for users transitioning from other tools.The community has been asking for this improvements for years and still we have not seen any response from you.

Functional feedback suggestions: There are pictures in the file to replace them

Feature Request: Replace Image Fill with Existing File ImagesHi Figma Team,When working in Figma, we often need to replace the image Fill of a shape or layer. Currently, the only options are to re-upload from a local file or copy the Fill from another layer.This workflow has two major issues: Copying a Fill often overrides the target layer’s properties (corner radius, strokes, shadows), rather than just replacing the image itself. There’s no way to directly choose an existing image from the current file as the replacement source, like we can in Sketch. It would be very helpful if Figma could add a feature to select and replace image Fills using images already present in the file, with these benefits: Show a list of all images used in the current file. Allow replacing the Fill image without affecting other properties (corner radius, stroke, effects). Support batch replacing images for multiple layers at once. This would significantly improve iteration speed for teams working with

Make Collaboration (editing) between paid accounts free

PROBLEM: Currently, if you and a user outside of your team both have paid Figma accounts, and you need the other person to be able to edit your file, you need to pay for A THIRD account. i.e. For TWO freelancers to edit the same Figma file, you need to pay for THREE Figma accounts. This is clearly a terrible customer service experience and I suspect it’s a common issue as you’ll see from Figma’s own Product Support team response below. SOLUTION: The ideal workaround would be to offer free editing when both accounts are paid. Alternatively, if it’s an expensive service to provide, it seems reasonable for Figma to charge a clear fee (e.g. Editing collaboration: $2 per file per month, or $5 per project per month). Please upvote and add to the discussion. For reference, here’s my last message from Figma’s Customer Support, who are clearly trying to help solve this problem: Hey there Paul, Thanks for reaching back out. Again, all editors in your team space are billable to you. Even if Robin

Prototyping with transparent videos

Whatever I try, I can’t seem to work with .mov or .webm videos with transparent background on Figma. Whenever I upload them, I get a black background. Am I doing something wrong? Or is there a workaround for this?

Include expressions within variable definitions

I would very much like to have the ability to add/subtract/divide/multiply variables (or a given value) to other variables to create new variables. See the examples below. This would add so much more flexibility as it would add a level of flexibility to design systems while at the same time maintaining consistency across designs. It also means that you can change just a few “master” variables rather than having to update everything. Thoughts?

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

Feature Request - Export Slides as PDF from Presentation View

We share a lot of decks in Slides with our clients and many of them need to be able to export our presentations as PDFs to share with their team or whoever. Currently, we send them a link to the Slides deck and also attach a PDF. It’d be great if our clients had the option to export PDFs themselves from the presentation view if they need to.

Feature option - right click 'effects,' 'appearance,' 'auto-layout' in sidebar to copy JUST that style

This came up because I wanted to copy dropshadows from one image to another, but because the image itself is considered a property, it replaced the other image with the one I copied. Which is annoying. It’s fine to have pre-made styles in a separate library that you link to your file, but sometimes you’re just trying to quickly iterate and work and don’t want all the background effort an entire library would take.It would be nice to be able to go to the sidebar, right click ‘effects’ to copy all effects or right click a single dropshadow to copy that specific effect. Same for all the other options in the right sidebar.

In Figma Make, can you add the ability to delete previous (long) prompts?

I prompted Figma Make with a particularly long prompt attempt, but it caused errors.So I restored to a previous version to get back to baseline.Now many of my very small future prompts are failing while the AI is working with the “try again with fewer inputs” error.I’d like to remove my previous long prompts from the history manually as I suspect that’s not helping the “fewer inputs” problem I’m experiencing.

Comments Visible to Anonymous Prototype Users

In order to help guide a client or stakeholder through a design when my team isn’t available, we use comments to explain our decisions. We recently noticed that anonymous viewers of prototypes can no longer view comments without having an account. In our use case, users won’t need to respond to comments as they’re used as a guide, which makes signing up only to read them very inconvenient and a big friction point. It would be great if there were a way that those anonymous users can be allowed read access to the comments in the file. If they wish to leave a comment, then they could either sign up/login to an account, or use something like the solutions offered in Easier access for commenters. Without this, we will be forced to find a new solution to guide users through our decision-making process without needing them to watch/skip around a long screen recording or us having to remake all pages and comments in a PDF or Invision.

Prevent instance breaking

One of the biggest problems my design systems team faces is designers breaking instances.Figma should allow teams to “lock” certain components/component sets so that users can’t break instances. It’s nice to have freedom in Figma, but at some point we need to be able to control certain aspects of our libraries and files.

Tables!

Figma needs an autolayout option for tables, or grids. None of the extensions or apps work well. Designers like me need to make grids all the time. Right now, I make autolayout rows, but they invariably need to be synced with the column header, which I do manually by editing fixed width.  Please add an autolayout for grid that would allow items to be in both a column and a row.

A tragic example of bad UX of Figma - Enterprise and branching

In my organization, we have enterprise level Figma or something like that and we use branching.So, without adding too much info, the situation is: The design file linked with library file.And in the design file we have stuff going on.And then we have branches from the design file. The scenario I had this week which cost me sleepless nights and two days of headaches, plus additional work on cleaning the mess out:And yes, I know, I’m partly responsible for that but I will add my conclusion in the end. So one day it was decided in the team that we need to alter one input in the input component (one variant). I made the change. Unfortunately, forgot to first train on a branch, but I thought “hey, it’s just one input, just adding some element to it” (let’s say it lacked an asterisk to be obligatory as a feature of the component).I rolled the change to branches and I think I just updated one of the branches as I was specifically needing this change just there (unfortunately, some 5-6 pages o
