The new aspect ratio lock is good so far, I have no problems with it, but I think we can make it great.I was just using the feature for locking the aspect ratios of images and using auto-layout and fill width to grow/shrink the images to fill the frame. That works well, but I noticed two things:Order of operations: I have to set a fixed height and width first with the aspect ratio I want (400px X 300px for example for a 4:3 ratio), then I can lock the aspect ratio, then I can set the width or height to fill. Not the end of the world, but it takes a couple of steps. What if we could specify the ratio we want at any time? For example, place an image, set it to fill the frame, then specify the ratio. Maybe it’s a dropdown select of common aspect ratios or maybe it’s a manual input. Usefulness for developers: When inspecting the image in Dev Mode, the aspect ratio really isn’t helpful. For example, on one of my images with a 3:2 ratio, the CSS style for the image says “aspect-ratio: 332.0

I request the removal of the “Help” question button in the inspector panel. It is intrusive, persistent, and annoying, similar to a pinned chat agent that obscures relevant information. It is also redundant since help is available in the toolbar menu. Please remove that button; it’s driving me crazy!

Our design system devs asked us designers for a better way to compare changes within our component specs between updates.  We stage our components as instances in a separate spec file from the library file the components are published from.  Each component and variant is contained within an individual section acting as a wrapper.  The wrapper is where we enable a “ready for dev” tag to capture a version history.  Using this method we’ve run into a few obstacles: Sections don’t capture granular changes, we’ve had to switch from wrapping our component instances in sections to frames for a version history to be recorded within the compare/diff window. Ready for dev version history can only be viewed by first entering dev mode, then entering focus view on the versioned frame (it doesn’t show if you enter focus view from design mode). `Compare changes` within the standard dev mode view does not show this information and instead compares against the original component or shows version histor

Dear Figma Team,I would like to provide feedback regarding the behavior of stroke and padding when exporting designs for CSS implementation. While Figma offers excellent design tools and helpful CSS hints, there is a notable inconsistency between how strokes are visually represented in Figma and how they translate into CSS code. This discrepancy can lead to confusion and extra work during the development process.Issue DescriptionWhen designing input fields in Figma, strokes (borders) are measured separately from padding, and padding is displayed as starting from the outer edge of the element's frame. However, when exporting to CSS or implementing designs manually, borders are treated differently due to the CSS box model: In CSS, padding is measured from the inner edge of the border (stroke). Figma suggests using box-sizing: border-box for correct border inclusion in dimensions, but it does not account for the fact that stroke thickness affects the visual padding. Example ScenarioIn m

I recently did a lot of cleaning up my company's Figma file structure and unfortunately comments can't be moved from one file to another. I've consolidated a lot of files into one to make it easier, but I have to manually re-write the comments so I don't lose them.

As it’s shown in the attachments, when there is arrows from box to box in FigJam, and each arrow is in different color, the top one show both sides as related to it although each arrow is a regular one with one side of head

 This is currently the brightest page on the entire internet. It’s somehow brighter than Gmail. Come on! 

The tool appeared with all my acquaintances of designers, but I do not have it. How long to wait? He submitted an application to Beta. Updates are set by the latter

Would love post its to stick to the different elements in the page, kinda like Comments are tied to an element which has a comment assigned to it.

As per the last update, when closed captions are activated while starting a conversation, the popover that comes up showing the captions has a very small width value, making the text unreadable and it cannot be resized unfortunately.It would be great to also drag around the window so it can placed anywhere on the screen just as other Figma modals.  

Hello, I’m generally pretty chill about product updates, and I understand that companies need to evolve and improve their features Figma included. But honestly, I think you're heading in the wrong direction when it comes to prioritisation.Obviously, us the users don’t get insight into your development plans until changes are released. But I urge you to reconsider your product roadmap in terms of real, tangible benefits for designers.We’re the ones paying you after all…The new UI3 update introduces several changes that just don’t align with fundamental design principles. Since the rise of tools like Photoshop in the 1990s, there has been an industry standard in layout alignments, UI iconography, and UX best practices. Disrupting these conventions for the sake of change feels counterproductive.I understand the ambition to create the best possible software, but some of these decisions feel like change for change’s sake. With UI3, it genuinely feels like I’m driving in reverse, dealing wit

ContextMy company heavily uses Figma variables and are looking to build out multiple collections each having a unique set of modes. One example would be around Buttons—two collections would be made, one for states and another for size. There would be many other collections that would need to be created to create a comprehensive design system. Caveat: This use case may be an edge case or unique to me.ProblemThe current variable window is very inflexible:Can’t view your list of collections outside of a dropdown feels clunky Can’t resize the left panel with the list of variables Can’t reorder modes (I may be missing something here on why that is built that way)SuggestionsWould be nice to treat the variables’ left panel like the main pages and layer panels Collections could be treated like pages and would be housed in a resizable section above the variables which would be treated like the layers The same way we interact with the pages and layers panels would be the same way we interact wit

It’s been a while now but often when collaborating on the same schema, the width of my arrows are not the same as that of someone else even though I started it from a copy/paste of an existing object that had an arrow connected to it. The only way I can fix that is by copy pasting the arrow that has the width I want and using it afterwards.

the Windows app is really crap, it is nothing more than a webview around the website, it is not a real, full feature, efficiente native app ☹️

I use a big screen, and Figma’s window is usually maximized. As a result, I very often miss various popups because they’re way too small and appear somewhere in the corner where I don’t look.For example, I just tried to insert a link with a shortcut and it didn’t work, a hint appeared in the corner, but I only saw it in half an hour, and only because another window was on top of Figma and that corner was the only visible part.Here’s how it looks for me (and this is a unusual example with an almost empty page, usually pages contain a lot of elements and I pay even less attention to the screen margins). 

I love the idea of being able to populate screens/wires with sample content, but why can’t I tailor a prompt to get the correct content first? Currently, I have to select the frame, press “replace content” and then wait for it to change everything before clicking “make changes” to then provide it the context needed to replace the content with information specific to the app I design for. Considering AI provides better outcomes with more context, why make me wait for the inevitably wrong content to populate before providing this option?

Hi, When editing my Figma Community profile, I noticed there are only two preset options for social links: Twitter and Instagram.I would really like to see Bluesky added to these, or, even better, if these fields detected the website you enter and inserted the appropriate icon, like Github does.Thank you! Figma Community: only 2 social media options Github: link is detected automatically 

Hundreds of times I’ve thought I had a prototype connected up only to realise that every interaction is ‘On Drag’ instead of ‘On Click’ - presumably because I had an element previously connected to a Frame that I had then deleted.To the user, that element then has no interactions, not an interaction that leads to nowhere. When I add a new interaction, by dragging from the + icon to another frame, it is added as an ‘On Drag’ interaction on top of the empty ‘On Click’ interaction - what is the use case for this? There is none

A colleague has been complaining for a few months that Figma has been lagging much more than usual. This had already been an issue with some of our larger files, especially since he works on Windows while I use a MacBook, but I hadn’t noticed any changes on my end.However, since a recent update, I’ve started experiencing severe lag myself when selecting multiple pages at once or simply multiple components. It has become unbearable to try and organize designs or make bulk edits. The problem seems to have started with the introduction of AI features in the app. My colleague had early access to these features, and the timing appears to correlate with the lag increase.On top of that, many elements in my designs have been breaking for no apparent reason:Frames set to “Fill width” appearing as “Hug,” though this seems to be a visual glitch only. The ability to apply multiple text styles in a single text layer is broken; underlining, strikethrough, color changes, font type, and weight adjustm

Why is it that when I create a line using the line tool, it creates the line with two spines (one on either side and one middle one)? When I create a line using the pen tool however, it has one center aligned spine. I’ve seen this contribute to alignment issues, when trying to center align the line tool line within a rectangle, it uses the one of the side spines to create the alignment and therefore isn’t truly centered. Am I missing something? Line tool line (two spines, left and center)Pen tool lineNot center aligned with line tool 

It is irritating to need to keep looking up how to do common functions because Figma doesn’t follow conventions. Please have the humility to acknowledge most software conventions are learned outside Figma and follow those conventions even if you desire to break the mold. https://lawsofux.com/jakobs-law/I keep needing to look up how to turn text into links. Please, just let me use Ctrl-K.

Figjam just changed their color palette (that looks quiet bad). My problem is that old stickies are still in the old palette, so when I edit a Figjam created before the palette update, I cannot add stickies that are the same color as the existing ones ! The only workout is to change the color of each old sticky note one by one… Expected behaviour : stickies placed before the palette update should be switched to the new palette! (as opposed to frames and shapes that support custom colors should stay as they are)

These are some of the new Fig Jam default colors. I know there are ways to customize the palette but this is wild. Why did you guys lighten the green and blue? What’s up with this cyan? In theory these colors should look okay together but they do not.

As the title describes, i’m finding it odd when other prototype tools have native lottie support and figma only have it as a GIF since i recently move the majority of my work to figma. 

Even before the last update, i found a few inconsistencies within Figma’s interface. The one that bothers my a lot is the properties selection menus. i’ll bring the Font family, Font weight and Font line height as examples.When Figma is set to light mode, the font family selection menu is in “white mode” and the variable selection in nicely located at the top. easy to reach. this is perfect.  The space letter spacing is also in “light mode” with the variables button extruded on the field itself, even better, but for the rest of the menus are constantly set to dark mode and their variable selection are placed at the bottom of the list. for fonts with long list this makes navigation very hard with a lot of scrolling. Please fix this inconsistency as specially the later one is the most inconvenience to work with.Thank you
