Make the search field immediately active when clicking on "libraries"

Title pretty much says it all - whenever I try to go and give things a color and it doesn’t already have a variable or style attached to it, I select “libraries” and immediately want to search, I end up doing all sorts of weird things because typing activates other shortcuts. It is already immediately active when you click on a color that already has a library value, so why does it not become immediately active when it doesn’t AND I already click on “libraries” from “custom”? Such a small thing would save me so much annoyance. If you’re gonna implement something, implement it everywhere and consistently.

Option to change background color of the canvas automatically depending on current theme

When you create a new file, it is automatically assigned a background color to the canvas depending on the selected theme. This ensures that you have the right background color for the selected theme. However, if you use “Theme = System Theme” as I do, the color of the graphical user interface will change but not that of the canvas. Therefor it would be nice to have the option to change background color of the canvas automatically depending on current theme

Dev Mode doesn't dislay nested component properties

In design mode, components bubble up properties from inner sub-components. This makes components much easier to interact with.  In dev mode, the behavior is different. You only see the currently-selected component’s properties, and have to drill in to any sub-components to see their properties.  It would be really nice to have the same behavior for both (bubbling up properties) so developers could see all the properties set on the parent on down to any smaller atoms.

Preferred instance lists should dynamically update with published library updates

In File A I create 20 (arbitrary example) different components that have an icon instance property. File A has access to my Icon library (in another file). So I add all icons as preferred values for my 20 instance props in File A. Now I add some icons to my library and publish the update. Well guess what? Now I have to go through the 20 props in File A to manually add those new icons as preferred value. Imagine this at the scale of a mature international design system. What’s the point of the preferred values feature then?

Change Monthly Subscription Renewal Date

This is probably more of a fringe scenario, but it would be nice to be able to change the day on which a recurring Figma subscription is processed.Our Accounts Payable team requires all expenses up to the 20th of each month be included with monthly credit card reconciliation, due for submission on the 26th. Our Figma subscription is processed on the 20th, but it often doesn't post to our expense management system until the 25th or 26th. If we could change this to process earlier in the month, we'd have more flexibility over submitting our report each month—without needing to hover over our expense management system on the 25th and 26th to see if the charge posted. According to the Support team, we purchased an annual subscription on the 20th of the month. From the date the plan is purchased, any seats used outside of what the annual plan covers are charged on the 20th of each month.I recognize this isn’t a Figma problem, but being able to change this billing date would help us manage t

Let me copy a design from one folder and paste it into another folder

I have a template design file I use as starting point for many designs. Let me copy the template design and paste it into the folder were I’ll be keeping the new design. Right now the workflow onerous. “Duplicate” the file then “Move file…” using the popup that does not let users browse folders.

Create Folders/Categories/Tags for files

Organization would be immensely helpful if we could create folders for our drafts. I want to be able to organize my drafts into different categories (such as UI kits, Ideas, Wireframe kits, iOS, Android, etc…) so I can find files easily. Right now, the drafts page is a huge jumbled mess and I can’t create Team pages for everything. Maybe something as simple as being able to add ‘tags’ to each file, similar to Zeplin.

Make selection for asset scope in component window persistent

When i hit CTRL-I the component window pops up as usual but sadly, after the last updates it is bloated with stuff that i don’t need nor want. When i lock in the option “Local assets only” it resets this option everytime i hit CTRL-I again. Generally speaking, the idea of integrating external libraries is not the best idea in my opinion It bloats the once so intuitiv and fluid application and makes it just slow. No real corporation will use these proprietary libraries nonetheless. But that’s just my 2 Cents here, still a nice product and no alternative in sight.

Figma Partner plugins should allow commenting in Figma

In light of all the recent issues with Material Theme Builder, I’m just now realizing that Figma Partner plugins do not have commenting available/turned on in Figma Community files. If I had known of the issues others were having with this particular plugin, it may have given me pause prior to incorporating it into my file. For the benefit and awareness of Figma users, commenting should be turned on for all plugin resources within the community.

Fr/Percent units for more control over auto layout content

Although I find the new autolayout UI extremely convoluted and overdesigned, the ‘hug/fill parent’ feature is great. However, It would be immensely helpful to have more control over how the elements fill the parent. Currently, the only option is for the elements to fill the remaining space, but oftentimes, I need certain elements to take up a certain proportion. Example: I need element-1 to take up 2fr (~66%) and the rest to take up 1fr (~33%). It would be a game-changer if we could use ‘fr’ units. Framer does this beautifully and it’s vital for efficient, adaptive layout workflows:

LAUNCHED: Copy/Move variable groups into other collections

I have been playing around with creating variables but realized I would rather have groups in separate collections, but cannot move them. I would like to be able to duplicate an entire collection so I don’t have to manually re-create values and can remove what I don’t need from that collection OR simply be able to move groups into other collections.

Stop change components width properties to [fill] when adapt Auto-layout on Variant Sets

Same as Title. Stop change components width properties to [fill] when adapting Auto-layout on Variant Sets very first time. It’s very annoying work to check everytime i adapt Auto-layout on Variant Sets that i designed typical width size for a Variants. This issue makes me spend more time to double check the properties. Small detail can make users happy.

Add 1080p TV device frame

[> Please search for existing topics before posting! Press 🔍 at the upper right to search.] Hi there! I’m wondering if there’s a reason why the only option for a TV device frame is 1280x720 when the standard for TV app design is 1920x1080 (at least for Apple’s tvOS). 📺 I found that this question was discussed here in 2022, but the thread has closed and 1280 remains the only TV device frame size. I created an entire prototype (screen recording linked below) at 1280 because I wanted to present it to the client within the slick-looking TV device frame, but now our dev team has to scale everything up 1.5x. For the most part this isn’t a big problem; it just creates one extra step in the workflow that shouldn’t really be necessary. So does anyone know why Figma’s only TV device frame option is 1280? Is there some reason why TV apps should be designed at this size rather than 1920? Thanks! drive.google.com

Add "Selection Text Styles"

Trust me I’ve searched for a plugin that does what I want to do - I simply cannot find one Which leads me to ask **Would it be possible to add a section / feature in the “Design” side menu similar to the “Selection Colors” section that pops up when selecting multiple frames or elements on a given page?.. ** Why? As of right now, we’re in the process of determining text style equivalencies for our web app that would need to use different text sizes as breakpoints increase. In the early process of creating our design system for this new project, it would be great to see, at a glance, all the text styles currently in use for one breakpoint to see if there are consolidations we can do prior to exploring the text style scaling or equivalencies for larger UI.

Variable change listener interaction

Hello! As mentioned earlier in posts such as Prototype - Interactions - Event listener & ElseIF conditional, it would be really useful to have interactions trigger from variable changes. Right now, you can already accomplish these by combining conditional statements with the “After delay” interaction, but it is extremely tedious to maintain and demands a lot of janky component work (see example of implementation in video). Simply having “Listen for change in variable X” as an interaction would be a really powerful tool to create reusable components for advanced prototypes.

“Driven” variables for advanced prototyping

“Driven” variables for advanced prototyping Currently, when you link a variable to a UI property or component property (like the width of a frame), updating the variable in the variable panel automatically changes the property. In this setup, the variable controls the property. But what if the user could opt to reverse this relationship? Instead of the variable controlling the property, the property controls the variable. To enable this, we could introduce the concept of “driven” variables. A “driven” variable would update its value whenever the linked property changes. For example, if the width of a frame is linked to a driven variable, resizing the frame both editing AND prototyping mode would update the variable with the new width. Use Cases: Resizable objects in Prototyping Mode: With driven variables, properties like the width of a frame could become user-adjustable in prototypes, and the new size would automatically update the variable. Custom Breakpoints in Prototyping mode:

Export local variables as a single file for handoff

Description: The feature allows users to export local variables from Figma as a single file, making it easier to share design tokens and maintain consistency across projects. Current Format: Currently, local variables in Figma need to be copied individually or manually noted down, which can lead to errors and inconsistencies when transferring information between team members or projects. Proposed Enhancement: Implement an export option that allows users to select multiple local variables and save them as a single JSON or PDF file. This file can then be easily shared or imported into other projects or reviewed by developers. Benefits: Streamlines collaboration by ensuring all team members have access to the same variables. Reduces manual errors and saves time in the design handoff process. Enhances consistency across designs by providing a single source of truth for variables. Others: This feature could also include an option to import previously exported variable files, creating a se

Cropping the image with cmd does not work correctly in Figma slide

When I crop a image with “cmd” pressing, crop from the top then crop from the bottom, it will replace the image position again to align the bottom and I will have to redo the procedure again. This is a frequent step when making quick slides, hope it can be fixed soon!

Keep Comments pinned to design elements (including nested)

When i move my design elements/frames/etc., I expect all the pinned comments to move with them – but they don’t. instead i’m left with a bunch of floating comments (that are not attached to anything), which requires me to manually re-read each comment and move it again to its correct place. this is frustrating and time consuming. but what’s worse is when another user forgets to move the comments after they move the design elements, so when i return to the Figma file it’s very difficult to decipher the floating comments because they are not pinned to anything so i have no idea what they’re referring to. please keep Comments pinned to design elements (so moving design elements automatically moves comments).
