Please bring back individual frame editing feature on Figma Buzz

Hi ​@Sahil Badgewar, Celyn from Figma Community Support here.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. I'm sorry to hear you're running into crashes with the new bulk edit feature.

I've gone ahead and created a support ticket for you so the team can investigate this further. Your ticket number is #1939065.

It would be really helpful if you could reply directly to the ticket with a screen recording showing the crash, along with the file link where you're experiencing the issue.

Please also invite support-share@figma.com with “Can View” access (this won’t impact your billing and will allow us to reproduce the issue and investigate further with Engineering).

Someone from the team will be reaching out soon, so please keep an eye on your inbox. Thank you for your patience in the meantime.

Hi ​@Celyn_L !

I’m also having this issue, should I also invite support-share@figma.com to my file?
 

Hi ​@Saleenah Saint Louis, I’m sorry to hear that you’re running into issues editing in Figma Buzz as well.

I’ve gone ahead and created a support ticket for you so the team can investigate this further and work with you directly. Your ticket number is #1943586.

Yes, it would be really helpful if you could reply to the ticket with a link to the affected file and invite support-share@figma.com with Can View access.

If possible, please also include a screen recording showing the steps you're taking and when the crash occurs. This will help the team reproduce the issue and investigate more effectively.

In the meantime, as a workaround, you should still be able to edit items directly on the canvas instead of using Bulk Edit by switching to Asset View in the Figma sidebar.

I hope this helps! Please keep an eye on your inbox, and someone from the team will be in touch with next steps soon.

Thanks for your patience in the meantime.

I second bringing back the Edit Feature on the side bar. It was so user friendly for Marketing colleagues. I wonder if you can’t have both the bulk edit feature and the stand alone?

Also for our team the single frame edit was essential to our workflow. Especially on files where the assets do not have the same structure, the bulk edit is super bloated and really difficult to use. 

I dont see why it was just replaced by this bulk edit as there is enough space in the side bar to keep both of the edit options - single and bulk. 

For now a lot of hard work is basically lost because of this decision, please bring it back.

I also want this feature to come back. I have been working for months on setting up our social media team to be able to use Figma Buzz and all of my documents and instructions have to change because of this. It almost makes me want to go back to Canva.

In addition, it is super not user friendly to use the bulk edit tab and if editing directly on the graphic, it makes it very confusing for our social media team to figure out which layers they are able to edit. The individual frame editing was a big part of what made Figma Buzz great.

Hi everyone, thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback and explain how these changes have impacted your workflows.

I've gone ahead and shared your feedback with the team, including the requests to bring back individual frame editing alongside Bulk Edit. I've also passed along the context you've shared around how the previous editing experience better supported your workflows, as well as your feedback on Bulk Edit's usability and performance.

We really appreciate everyone taking the time to explain your use cases. That context is incredibly valuable as the team evaluates feedback on the editing experience in Figma Buzz.

Thanks again for sharing your thoughts with us 🙏

I agree this is a terrible ui decision. the whole point of buzz is now nil. 

​@Celyn_L any updates on if this is coming back?

Hey ​@Jessica Cleveland, thanks for checking in!

I've shared all of your feedback with the team, and I know how important this is for your workflow. At the moment, I don't have any new updates to share, but please know that your feedback has been heard.

As soon as I have anything new to share, I'll update this thread right away. Thanks again for your patience 🙏

Want to second all of this ^ Buzz has lost its primary purpose for our team of being user friendly for non-design colleagues with this new update. The Bulk Edit feature has it’s use for sure, but I don’t think it should replace the individual frame editing capabilities. It feels very clunky and confusing for what our team needs.
