Missing Padding Controls After New Figma UI Update

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.

WORST UPDATE OF ALL TIME! YOU DON’T NEED TO ENFORCE SUCH A USELESS UPDATE, I'm not a full time designer and I have no obligation to memorize all the shortcuts, updates are used to improve UI and UX, not vice versa.

I WOULD VERY MUCH ASK TO REVERT THE VERY VERY USELESS UPDATE.

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.

so sad… WE HAVE LOST the global controls for padding adjustments. i had to go one component at a time to change each one. inefficient.

This is the WORST UPDATE EVER. Do you guys even look at your user behavior before updating??? This is so frustrating??!?!? PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD UI. I can’t find my paddings at all.
