Hello, good day.
I’m experiencing serious issues with the new Figma UI update. Many essential tools — such as padding controls — are missing or hidden.
Please do not enforce this new version. The previous UI was much better, clearer, and far more efficient for designers.
This new version has no advantages, feels confusing, and makes our workflow significantly harder.
Question
Missing Padding Controls After New Figma UI Update
I’m also finding the padding control panel. :(
Why UI is updated often.
Hey All, thanks for your feedback!
I completely understand how frustrating this may be. With the full rollout of UI3, padding for Auto layout has indeed changed.
You can learn all the new shortcuts to access padding controls here: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040451373-Guide-to-auto-layout#shortcuts
While I can’t guarantee any immediate reconsiderations, I’ll be sure to pass your feedback onto the team.
I couldn’t HATE this decision more than I do. This is enormously frustrating and I can NOT get these new options to work!!

I couldn't agree more. Especially about hiding spacing controls.
Please bring the auto layout padding controls back! This is the worst product decision!
The padding controls in the new Figma UI have been moved. Auto Layout padding is now accessed through updated shortcuts in the interface. The old panel no longer exists, but all padding functions are still available using these new controls.
I HATED this update, then realised I was the problem, user error 😩
