I have encountered this so many times that I am wondering if there is anything that can be done. When you use a frame with an effect like a drop shadow applied within another frame, the main frame cuts off the shadows unless you add padding. If you then add padding to the main frame, the components inside falls out of the grid. I don’t know a solve but it would be great if the frames did not cut off any components with effects like a drop shadow.

To edit a comment we click on the comment first, then three dots and finally “Edit” option. The only option displayed is edit so how would it be removing three dots and directly displaying edit option?

Thanks for making Annotations available outside of Developer Mode! However, there’s no quick way to hide them, which can be a bit frustrating. When there are a lot of annotations, they tend to clutter the layout and make it harder to navigate.

Since the last update, I cannot see the green numbers (see the attachment) in Design mode. These green numbers are convenient for me to know how many annotations are there for a particular screen. I wonder if others also lost these green numbers since the last update, or if my loss is due to my Figma settings somewhere.

Just switched to UI3 and everything feels so foreign. Vague icons, lower contrast, confusing UX on old features, weird placement of things...I could go on…I used to be an expert with auto layout and now it’s just a nightmare to use...Please let us stay on UI2...

I notice in new UI3 there are extra space was stolen what make negative space works less effectively. This mean it is difficult to scan any icons, fonts, items, categories on the panels. Problem - extra paddings makes lower scannability and overloads space.Solution - get rid of extra paddings - UI2 has no problem such like that. Use hover to display padding and make no margin between objects. 

I notice one similar problem related to the reason why I migrated to Figma. Becouse it is a simple and intuitively clear interface to use. Why Im not happy with new UI3? Because I feel like changes was made just for changes (simple example is the target icon or some wording) It was the best application ever made for designers and for developers. Position ≠ absolute but “ignore auto layout” - it makes us designers far from devs. I wish we could talk on the same language.I suspect that it was made to get us used to it because some new grand merger will be coming soon. Summary - it became more complicated and misleading. I spend much more time getting used to it now than in 2018. (I understand a lot of features were added)For me, it is still changes for changes, they are solving nothing - only add time to thing where should I find it and why the hell is it here. New features could be realised in UI2 successfully.The better idea would be to make u

Ever since the release of UI3, Figma has not been the same. Pages load slower, the canvas is way laggier, multi-selecting multiple child components make the whole program nearly non-functional, and the endless loading wheel has become my new best friend. I’m not sure where else put this other than here.I get new features are new and exciting, but using figma has actively slowed me down in the last year simply by not having the performance it had prior to UI3 release. My whole design team is feeling the same way I am and we’re becoming increasingly less pleased to be paying thousands of dollars a year for this program if it continues on this path.I can’t attach videos here unfortunately, but I’ll be more than happy to share examples of issues I’m running into if any mod/Figma employee would like to chat further.

How do you lke this book? 

Please understand that my FigPal (Laza Kostić) needs to roam freely! It pains me to see him bound to my cursor. As my pal’s pal, I want to have the ability to release him and let him crawl freely across the canvas (stopping occasionally to graze on grass, lollypops, and other food necessary for survival of FigPals. He may occasionally come to say “hi” while I’m working on my designs and I can call him back home when it’s time to sleep.

Before the new pricing model, the “People” panel allowed admins to selec t a couple of users, and modify their access & permissions in one go. This was a very practical and obvious behaviour — but it’s now gone! Users have to be processed one by one, the only batch options is to remove them entirely from the space, or copy their email.This makes admin work really tedious and needlessly time-consuming. Please bring back this simple feature, thanks.PS the UI itself to select all users with a specific Seat type is also way too complex. You need to click Filter, select the Seat type and then apply changes. Why not allow user to just click on the big icons on the top right to filter in one click? 

Great job with Figma Slides guys, but, why rounded corners for slides? It’s extremely annoying, it’s hard to design like this. I don’t want to be forced to design with round corners. Could you please remove them? Thank you!

Left Sidebar (slide view) in Figma Slides doesn’t have any scroll bar. It might be fine if you work on you laptop with a trackpad but I have a iMac + Wacom Tablet set up with no trackpad and I can’t scroll through slides. I need to click every single slide to move up or down.. I can’t find any setting for this in Figma. There should be one. It’s a basic feature of any interface.My system settings are: Show scroll bars - Always.  

Our dev team love the Focus View mode, but it is somewhat cumbersome to go back and forth between the normal ‘File’ view to the Focus View. To switch you either have to click the arrow, which either brings you back to the Activity Feed or the File, or use the 3 dots + clicking on ‘Inspect on page’. What about a simple toggle switch between Focus and File view? Why hide ‘Inspect on page’ behing this three dots if there’s only two options in there which have very different purpose:  

 Hey Figma Team, Community. I love the new variables system and the ability to change appearances. However, I came across a reoccurring problem in the last weeks: People with only view rights, are not able to change the appearance of a component or frame. This was something we designers weren't aware about. Is it possible, or maybe already in scope to allow people with view rights only, to change the appearance mode? I think this might really help and keep files slim and clean without making lots of copies and changing appearances modes.Let me know your thoughts, thanksJonas

When the title of a page is wider than the column it gets an ellipsis. Right now the only way to see the full title is to edit the title since there is a limit on how wide you can make the sidebar.Please just add a tooltip to titles that are wider than the column, IE when they get ellipsis.

I think it will be very nice to edit files on the iPad.

In Previous (old UI) of Figma many things was clear and straightforward.Here is a small example from Pages list on the left sidebarProblem: Now on UI3 the title “Pages” doesn’t look like a title, sometimes I am  confusing it with the list. Because in some of project I give a  name “Pages” to my page. So first Pages should look like a title not a part of the list Second problem of UI3 is no checkmark icon on selected page (on left sidebar). Previous (old UI) had a  checkmark on current page.  But on UI3 it has just background which is same as hover color.  There are much more things which was better than new UI3. Comparing UI  

It has always been my ambition to become a nurse, but when it came the day of the HESI examination, I freaked out. I simply could not figure out where to start and felt so much pressure. One evening, I was browsing and came across a HESI exam help site with practice exams and ideas for studying. I thought maybe I should try this. I started to follow the suggestions step by step, and my confidence built. When the day of the exam finally arrived, I was nervous, but I was prepared. A few days after the completion of the exam, I was able to view my results - I passed! I was relieved, and it proved to me that with the right help and a lot of work, anything you wish to achieve may be obtainable. Now I am one step closer to my goal and more motivated than before.

I’ve been trying Figma and Figjam to replace Milanote or Miro Board and it’s close but not quite there yet, especially for using video in either Figma or Figjam. Below are some pros I’ve found and some suggested improvements for both Figma and Figjam when it comes to dealing with image and video especifically. Figjam:Feels a bit better for sharing video for feedback because it can be played directly on the board, but then there’s no option to showcase the file name and that is very important for Motion Graphics or 3D animators because we need to be able to reference the file we have locally. Milanote displays the filename automatically and I think it would be great if we could have the option to showcase the file always, or not, or maybe only on hover. The fact that we can type text and DIRECTLY tag other people without needing to create a comment is great, especially for feedback. Pla

Hi Figma staff, This might be a dumb question but why doesn’t a keyboard shortcut exist for ‘Go to main component’ ? Working with components and instances is a core workflow so wouldn’t a keyboard shortcut be as important as ‘Create component’ and ‘Detach instance’? Thank you in advance!

It was the final semester of university, and the weight of upcoming online exams was starting to feel impossible. We had no idea where to begin—should we focus on particular subjects or just cram with practice tests? The stress was building, and that's when my brother suggested Do My Online Exam, a service he used when he was in our shoes. We were unsure at first, but decided to give it a shot. They helped us sort through our study material, gave us tailored practice exams, and made the whole process feel more manageable. Thanks to their support, we entered the exams feeling confident and ready to take on the challenge.

I dont know who design this slide editor, but it is way too stupid no function to apply the same background to all page. Even when we search on the help its not there. For this one reason is enough to avoid it. Rubbish

I want to share my figpal with others, but I’m not sure where they are. Can you add the little people icon bubbles to the corner of projects and files so we can see where active users are to let our figpals collaborate together?

Hi Figma,As the title suggests, the main use case for UI 3 as a product designer like myself is utilizing AI features, background removal, and layer renaming. However, beyond these, the UI itself presents cognitive challenges.Here’s a small comparison between UI 2 and UI 3: UI 3 has more complex icons. (Why use a border in the typography icon, especially in such a small space?) Wasted space and visual distraction. (I don’t understand—why does everything need to be wrapped in a background? This adds unnecessary layers of complexity and distraction.)
