Dear Figma, I really enjoy your app!Thank you!At the same time, I find it really annoying that I cannot open up a file in a new tab from the home screen.This inconvieniences me in two ways. First of all,  I cannot open multiple files at once becuase once I click on one file, the homepage is gone. What I have been doing instead is researching for Figma in the search bar, to come back to another homepage and open another file. It is highly inefficient.In addition, when I am already on a file, and I would like to view the homepage, or open another file, there is no way to do so. In order to view the homepage I have to leave my current file. This is annoying.As you can see, not having the option to open my projects in a new tab significantly degrades my user experience.In order to solve this problem, I suggest you make an option to open the file in new tab, such as in Google Docs or Canva, so that I can easily return to the homescreen whi

Usually, we designer will have a lot of pages in the left panel, but when we give this link to other team, such as sales, or developers, they only can see the about the top 5 pages, they don’t know there are still pages until they hover that area. Can we make this more obvious, something like add content bottom area shadow and always visible scrollbar and etc. Give more difference between pages and layers these two sections.

I heavily use FigJam daily and it's a core part of my workflow.Lately though, there's been a noticeable shift in how drawing works with the Apple Pencil, both in the FigJam and Figma apps on iPad. It feels like there’s now an invisible hand smoothing out my lines in real time. It seems to be introduced in order to compensate for shaky input, but the current implementation is just too much. So much so that writing or sketching quickly and naturally has become nearly impossible.It is interfering with our own natural assistance system, our own eyes. And now it feels like I’m fighting a ghost version of my own hand.If there’s a setting to tone it down or switch it off, that would be a lifesaver. Or just completely roll it back.Regards

The figma buzz hasn’t fix one of figma ‘s big problem, which is heavy file size I use buzz to export some of the social post, but they take up to 2-4mb just because I need the social post to have good enough resolution

What I can’t stand the most is that the panels of the new UI can’t be attached to the edges. They leave some gaps, wasting the space to display the main design and operation area. And visually, these gaps are also distracting my attention. The toolbar at the bottom also interferes with the main operation space, especially if its color is the same as my design draft. By the way, is it just for the convenience of novices to move it from the top to the bottom? If someone who uses Figma more frequently, he will use shortcuts instead of mouse clicks to trigger these functions. So I hope that adjustments can be made in time in the official version of UI3, otherwise these redesign will seem like a subjective conjecture of someone who doesn’t use Figma much.

I have a site where I’m using Grid mode for 4 columns.On Tablet I want that to grid to change to 2 columns, and 1 column for mobile.Right now it seems you can only increase the number of columns on other breakpoints, not decrease it. That’s a major feature that makes grids useful.Any TBD on when it might get solved?

Totally lost. I pasted an image. Here is my list of try and error after then:The image was far too large and I wanted to resize it by using a handle on the top left corner (the only corner I could see). It moved around instead. I looked in the menu to the right of the screen to find some formatting options. Therein was a symbol showing the figure next to a “100%” without any explanation. So I expected this to be the size of the image and typed 25, to then see it become transparent and almost invisible. Ctrl-Z. Then next, I did Ctrl-F to search for “size” and found nothing. But now, the buttons on the right are missing.I am afraid I have to tell you that Figma desperately needs some kind of introductury tutorial...

Please check the video.https://share.cleanshot.com/F4WbvN1jEvery time I use “rewrite” I have to press “open actions” shortcut 3 times to make it actually open again. Looks like a bug in UX but probably just the code.On a broader term, why push ai features and make them this interruptive?

Is there a way to export some frames as one pdf? When I click export > PDF, it exports all frames as individual PDFs which is not what I want.  I have lots of frames in this file. Say 1000s. I need to export 17 as a PDF. 

The function GRID doesn’t work as function WRAP.It is absurd that if do I delete an element into the autolayout, in grid it remains a empty space.In Wrap Mode it didn’t happen, elements naturally stacked due to the rules of padding set in autolayout.With GRID mode there is NO CONSISTENCY in padding. NOW, the GRID rules. So if do I set a vertical padding 10px, BUT the grid does not “afford” that padding, IT’S THE GRID THAT WIN, padding change, but I don’t have any information about this changement (just zooming in and checking manually).Moreover, with Wrap Mode, if did I resize the frame of the autolayout - with all the elements inside in Fill container - especially after the introduction of the precious Ratio function) - the elements would had resized. Now, not!Elements go off the grid.Changing a grid already existing is IMPOSSIBLE through the new GUI.It is impossible to ALIGN things in the grid.Joseph Muller Brockmann wo

新版UI界面功能太难用了，能不能弄回旧版本，网格布局那些全部没了，用起来好别扭

It would be more convenient if objects resized with a fixed aspect ratio automatically rounded their dimensions to the nearest whole pixel. At the moment, one of the dimensions—either width or height—often ends up with fractional values like 40.63px, which can cause visual inconsistencies and alignment issues. Ensuring both dimensions snap to whole pixels would enhance precision and improve the overall editing experience.

The recent Aspect Ratio update has brought with it a frustrating change to the way objects snap to the pixel grid.Previously, when changing the size/position of an object by dragging, it would snap to the nearest pixel. If you needed to get more specific - and have an object at 1.5px width for example - you could change this via the properties panel without having that object snap to the nearest pixel in terms of positioning/size.This felt like a really nice balance between snapping to the nearest pixel with the cursor, whilst retaining control over incremental choices via the properties panel.Now, after the most recent update, we no longer have this control - when you change the size of an object in the properties panel it snaps to the nearest pixel.For example, if I have a rectangle which is 6.5px wide and 1.5px tall, and I use the properties panel to change it's height to 2.5px, it'll automatically change the width to 6px.

Hey guys, I was playing with Buzz and after pasting one of my assets, the auto-layout property is gone! It seems auto-layout is not supported on the parent frame, or is this a bug? If it’s not a bug, there’s no use for us. We create hundreds of Newsletters and ads with auto layouts which flow automatically depending on the content.Also will the collaborators be able to swap instances of a symbol on a design and hide items? Thanks!

The Figma Sites Webpages Canvas, Has a max height, I can’t continue modifiying the work.  

Previously I was able to manually change the spacing between equally distributed frames or objects  even though the items were not in an auto layout. Now that functionality is gone and I can only edit the spacing manually or by using the pink interface between items - which makes it harder to get specific numbers.

The most recent update changed a few things in Figjam. First, they added a lot of new “shapes” (which is just a rectangle with an icon inside), and added a couple of new default colors. HOWEVER, they also changed the base colors for stickies!They are now way paler, with washed out, low contrast colors. I’m sure it was supposed to make them look both like real sticky notes and to increase the contrast between the background colors and the text for accessibility reasons, but I feel the colors don’t contrast enough at all between one another.I use colors a lot to help with identifying specific sections or types of notes, I often use every color of stickies available to distinguish between specific uses of each (like taking notes during user tests, each color representing a scenario).Unless custom colors are finally made available for stickies in Figjam, I think they are going to be way more annoying to use for me from now on. 

I finally figured out (I think) where my prototyping pain is coming from. I think maybe most users would use navigate to in order to navigate between dashboard pages, but I am using change to w/i instances of a large complex component set … with variables. I think my approach is more dynamic, but of course takes up more memory. And, navigate to has some limitations in terms of carrying a prototype across files.  Can Figma consider making variables x prototyping x navigation more robust/dynamic while not destroying memory?

TL;DR: Could Figma please extend the hitbox for the expand/collapse layer button (the chevron to the left of layer name) to the left edge of the screen?Hi. The hitbox of the button used to expand/collapse a layer in the Layers panel does not extend to the left edge of the screen. The hitbox is overall very narrow - not even 16px wide?This increases the precision needed to press the button - and requires precision in a situation where just generally throwing the cursor in that direction, for it to automatically stop at the screen edge, would require so much less attention.I don’t see any good reason to not extend the hitbox to the edge, since it’s already a dead zone where there’s no interaction. 

Hello, I’d like to share some critical feedback on the new UI3 asset panel, as it has significantly disrupted my workflow and, I believe, undermines some of the core organisational benefits Figma has always offered. 1. Loss of nested sectionsIn UI2, the Assets panel allowed nested subsections based on 'Frames' within a page on the design system (e.g. “Inputs” → “Main Component” and “Component Blocks”), so you could keep building-block elements separate from your primary component.   UI3 now flattens everything into a single folder, regardless of how many 'Frames' containing sub-components you have. For files with dozens of related c

Enhancing Component Flexibility with Slots: A Real-World Scenario"We often find ourselves needing to edit content within a component instance without detaching it. While a 'change once, update everywhere' approach for simple variant states is great, we really need more flexibility within those instances."Understanding the Power of SlotsThe Slot feature introduces a powerful new component property acting as a designated placeholder within a master component. This allows components to achieve both rigorous standardization and dynamic flexibility. Designers can now freely swap, add, or remove content and structural elements inside a component instance, all without ever having to detach it.When combined with Auto Layout and other Component Properties, Slots make components significantly easier to manage and far cheaper to maintain. This approach is partic

Is anyone else running into a lot of memory issues since upgrading to UI3?  Seems the memory management is worse than it used to be.Getting memory limit errors on files that seems much too small to justify them. Had an issue where I could not merge a branch back into main due to running out of memory.  Even running the operation on a PC with 96 GB of ram (yes, ninety six) did not fix the problem (what? HOW?!) I just tried to disconnect a bunch of frames from their component masters (with a lot of nesting) and the operation failed.  First it asked if I wanted to reopen in recovery mode.  Then the interface just went away and left me with a blank window.I use a lot of nesting to make my mocks responsive, and I build everything from components so I can use properties to configure each one how I need.  My approach has always been hard on Figma and performance regularly ground to a halt, but this behavior feels new.  Is anyone else dealin

I don’t think this used to be a problem, but since the new update it’s now full of bugs and I really miss the old UI. The bottom menu is a waste of space, just put it back in the top and let us use the short cuts! I have a habit of creating components outside a frame and I noticed that recently, it’s super hard to select objects grouped by auto-layout! I’m forced to put the whole thing in a frame just to do this or it will drag out individual element eventhough they’re all inside an auto-layout! Another thing about ‘Shift + I” shortcut for inserting components is that it will always prioritize inserting inside an auto-layered object closest to my cursor rather than where my mouse key is pointing, EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Hi, I have been searching to disable the “Spell Check”. While the Online Guide explains it clearly where to find it, intuitively I wouldn’t expect it there.To me, Spell Checking is either a user-setting or a preference of the application, not specific to the document or whatever I’m currently editing. I would suggest either moving or adding the “spell check” to the user-settings dialogue or the application-preferences.Option AOption B Let me know what you think Regards Lukas
