It is impossible to annotate a parent frame that has multiple frames in Figma. If an auto-layout frame is made up of 3 nested frames, we can press “Y” and annotate only the nested frames. We can’t click on the parent frame to annotate the entire frame. See attached screen recording for reference.Annotations are an important feature for the dev mode that Figma charges a bomb for. This simple annoyance ruins the user experience. Does anyone know an easy way to annotate the parent frame?
Por favor, parem de mudar o layout sem aviso prévio. Mudar algo que já passamos por uma curva de aprendizado e ficou estabelecido como modelo mental e de repente vocês mudam ferra o nosso lado aqui. Primeiro, foi a mudança do menu, depois a sidebar (mais de uma vez). Algumas foram boas mudanças, outras criaram fricções. 1. Eu tenho que parar o que estou fazendo no meu dia a dia para aprender um novo comportamento.2. Preciso de um segundo icon "close" que feche o painel quando eu estiver em assets, porque toda vez, cometo o erro de clicar no icon "book"e abro o ds publicados. Por que estou condicionado a clicar quando estou na aba file. Joga um posthog aí ou similar que é provável que mais usuários passam por isso. Enfim.
The Figma agent isn't reading comments. I used to use the Figma agent to change text in the layout; it was convenient when the agent would read a comment and replace the text automatically. Now, it just says there are no comments, even though there are actually plenty of comments in the frame. The agent doesn't see them—have you encountered this situation?
This update is genuinely one of the most frustrating UX changes I’ve experienced in a professional design tool 😡 😡 😡The new left-hand navigation panel permanently steals ~60px of horizontal space on small screens, which is completely unacceptable. That space is my primary working area — the canvas. I am literally losing room to do my job so a panel can sit there doing nothing most of the time.Yes, Variables, Files, Assets, Find, and Library are important.No — they are NOT minute-to-minute actions.They do not deserve permanent, always-visible real estate. This panel is idle 90% of the time, yet it constantly punishes my workflow.On smaller displays, this feels especially hostile. Instead of prioritising the canvas (the entire reason Figma exists), the UI forces a bulky navigation column that adds zero value moment-to-moment and actively makes precision design harder.This change feels like it was designed for: Large monitors only Product demos Feature discoverability …not for actu
So this is a question and a conversation as well, in the recent update of figma where it changed it's Ai image generating model from GPT Image 2.5 to GPT Sunburst, it genuinely sucks bro. Previously GPT Image 2.5 was the best it was generating images accurately as per the prompt but now this Sunburst is annoying, and why do figma even have those nano banana models, nano banana 2 is good but why do we even have Nano banana mini? Please help I'm stressing out my self I don't wanna buy Chatgpt Plus now to generate images
Why was the function for “Simplified instances” deprecated? I was looking for it all over the place and found out is is phased out. Why oh why? Is there any alternative? Sigh….
I spend far too much time deleting that blurb when all I want to do is point Claude to the correct URL from the MCP. I have better prompts.Either make that bit go away, or let me copy just the URL.
It appears as though the higher resolution a Figma Motion export is, the more compression is applied, which greatly affects color reproduction. Without being able to set a consistent compression, color is constantly changing in exports, which makes the exports unreliable for evaluation and deliverables for production. If the compression is indeed adaptive, targeting a certain bandwidth cost or file size limitation, it's a big flaw in Figma motion exporting. We need a way to maintain the color space consistency in exports.
I have a shape element (a message bubble), I cannot flip it against it’s vertical axis to create a simply dialogue visual for my project. 2 people having a conversation….the message bubble has to be flipped.I don’t understand the logic of principle with building a tool like Figma that is highly precise and detailed, but then building it’s sister app “FigJam” with bare bone features.As designers, I still want the ability to manipulate elements. Why is there only 2 thick levels for lines?This type of experience makes me want to abandon FigJam entirely and make my documentation in Figma original or use a different tool like Miro.I understand and respect wanting to simplify the workspace, but believe you guys have over-optimized in this direction and consequently limiting the creative aspect of designing visual documentation for teams.
When I’m just ideating on a new design and don’t want to use auto-layout yet, it would be really nice if there were a button that allows me to quickly move an object to butt up against another object. Something like the alignment buttons, but I don’t want to align the object to the sides of the frame.
My Figma Learning Journey 🎨✨I’m starting my journey of learning Figma and exploring the world of UI/UX design. My goal is to understand the fundamentals of design, improve my creativity, and learn how to create clean, modern, and user-friendly interfaces.Throughout this journey, I’ll be sharing my learning experiences, design experiments, challenges, and progress with the Figma community.I’m excited to learn new skills, connect with fellow designers, get feedback, and grow as a designer one step at a time.Let’s learn, design, experiment, and grow together! 🚀#Figma #LearningJourney #UIDesign #UXDesign #DesignCommunity #FigmaCommunity
In the new UI, the color options have been changed to buttons that you click on to open the color picker:I now need multiple clicks to get to a text field that I can edit or copy the value of. The old UI (still used for Selection colors) was much more accessible: I could even paste a non-hex value into the field and it would recognise it correctly!Can we please bring back the old input or an alternative/faster/easier way to quickly edit/copy color values?
As stated in title. It’s wasteful, unnecessary and removes personal agency from the creation process.
User StoryAs a Figma administrator, I want to access files in Trash, filter them using the available criteria, user, and previous location, and permanently delete multiple items at once, so that I can manage deleted content efficiently and keep Trash organized.Acceptance Criteria The administrator can access the Trash section from the Figma application. The administrator can view deleted files and relevant information, including file name, user, and previous location. The administrator can use the existing filtering criteria. The administrator can filter files by user. The administrator can filter files by previous location. Filters can be combined, and the list updates according to the selected criteria. The administrator can select one or multiple files from the list. The administrator can permanently delete the selected files in bulk. The administrator can permanently delete all files displayed in the filtered list. The administrator can select an option to empty t
Hello Figma Support,Please route this maintenance suggestion to the team responsible for the Figma plugin skills distributed for Codex. This concerns instruction discovery and packaging, rather than a Figma document or a demonstrated Plugin API failure.Environment: Codex desktop on macOS. Installed component: figma@openai-curated-remote, version 2.0.21. Observation date: 2026-09-14.In skills/figma-use/SKILL.md, the description at line 3 begins with mandatory prerequisite warnings and puts the actual capability and triggering objects later. In a display with limited description space, the warning is more likely to remain visible than the scope. The installed entry point has 34,998 characters and 435 lines. This is a static discovery concern, not a measured automatic-selection failure rate.Suggested English description:“Create, edit, or inspect nodes, components, variables, and layouts in Figma files using use_figma JavaScript.

Hi, where I can find the prototype mode in this new UI? and also the absolute position in auto-layout is also missing?
Hey guys, I want to share this idea.I work with different companies that, for NDA reasons, each want me to use their own email and account. So I need to switch between accounts all the time.The situation is that Figma is great software, I love it, but regarding user accounts, it's a total mess.Maybe instead of adding an account to the app and creating confusion by having multiple files open from different accounts at once, a simpler solution would be to let users open another Figma instance.That would be helpful to drag and drop between windows and share some components between different projects.
It would be helpful if the playhead snapped to time increments as well as existing keyframes. Right now, it’s difficult to position the playhead precisely when editing because it’s not clear whether it’s aligned with the intended time.
Realized when going back to a Tool that I subscribed to that there’s no way for me to pin it or save it anywhere for quick access. The only mechanism seems to be Recents. Seems like a total miss here. Way too many tools to assume Recents would be suffice.
It would be great to have an option to save filters in the Recents tab.Every time I open Figma, I have to manually filter my files to show only Design files. I’d like Figma to remember my filter selection, so that it persists after restarting the app or reopening Figma.
I don’t need the layer thumbnails in the layer list. They clutter the layout. Is there a way to turn them off? The right-hand rail used to have variable pickers that let you select a padding or size variable from the attached design system, but they went away. This is going to slow down work in Figma significantly. Is there a way to turn those back on?
The management of seats is absolutely terrible. We have unused seats, and there is no way in the user interface to remove them to avoid being charged in the next billing cycle. If this is automatically not charged, it is not explained anywhere. The most terrible experience I had managing subscriptions after 25 years of actively using internet.
Hi Figma Support,When writing a comment, accidentally double-clicking the canvas closes the comment box and deletes everything I’ve typed. This is frustrating, especially after spending time writing detailed feedback.Could you preserve unsent comments as drafts so they can be recovered when reopening the comment box? Alternatively, a confirmation prompt before discarding a comment would help prevent accidental loss.Thank you for considering this improvement!
Hello, the AI Agent feature is kind of nice & such help lately. But I kind of need a button to mark all chat as read. It’s a hassle to check them one by one. Thank you Figma Team!
K shortcut for Scale should work in animate mode aswell
