This is odd behaviour in my mind!When i select an item and use the scale tool, it makes the new size its default 1x when i reselect that element.Example:I select an image, set the scale to 1.2x, go about my business, return because i want to return that item to it’s initial 1x scale, increase or decrease it. The new size has now been set as its default 1x. and now i have to do math!Why wont it just remember that i set it to 1.2x? This behaviour is weird and makes me wanna use scale less!

I’ve never reported a bug with figma since they launched.Has anyone been experiencing a greater number of breaking bugs lately? Don’t know what’s going on, but I’ve had to report a whole bunch of issues to expected behaviour.Shortcuts being over-ridden to rotate instead instead of layer up, down.Strokes not setting colour correctly on layer mask images.Font weight selector not working for currently selected font.Canvas dragging after mouse click movement has stopped.Effects panels requiring a close and re-open to be able to adjust settings.Patchy library updates not always updating when attemptingI’ve reported all these individually, but if anyone at figma passes signal up from this community forum, this is a significant number of tiny issues that block or slow down work which I’ve never experienced from the product before in approx 8-9 years. Do with that information whatever you please.

Mass selecting elements in Figma can be a pain. Especially with the new changes to auto-layout sometimes elements will get nested 4 or 5 frames deep. In Sketch, you can press Cmd+Opt while dragging to select a group of objects. When you do this it will only select elements completely within the drag area. This makes mass selecting way more powerful. I’d love to see Figma copy it or come up with something better.

Hello! This is feedback for the Figma team. It would be so awesome to be able to see what was modified specifically when publishing components to avoid any potential unwanted changes that went under the radar. I see it will show some components or variable changes as “modified” with an arrow. But others it doesn’t show what was changed. Any insight into why this is would be helpful. Thank you! 

Any way to only paste cell values in comments? when copying from excel, pasting in comments includes cell markup. in the example below of what pastes in comments, i am only trying to paste the link " https://www.cvs.com/minuteclinic/clinic-visit " usage for this is that we are given a link grid and link tagging structure to paste in comments to make it easier for and marketers to QA what the links should be. it didn’t start pasting this way until recently this is what pastes: table {mso-displayed-decimal-separator:“.”; mso-displayed-thousand-separator:“,”;}tr {mso-height-source:auto;}col {mso-width-source:auto;}td {padding-top:1px; padding-right:1px; padding-left:1px; mso-ignore:padding; color:black; font-size:11.0pt; font-weight:400; font-style:normal; text-decoration:none; font-family:Calibri, sans-serif; mso-font-charset:0; text-align:general; vertical-align:bottom; border:none; white-space:nowrap; mso-rotate:0;}.xl671 {color:#4472C4; vertical-align:middle; border:.5pt solid windowt

Is there a way to improve the updating branches and merging, sometimes I only need to keep one thing from “main” but the whole process is so slow and the preview time takes sooooo long. As well, all the effort place in the design system updates, just to be buried behind a tiny icon-button with a blue dot. Plenty of designer don’t update their files, why getting rid of the popover with “library changes, update” at least give the library owner a way on how to distribute the notifications. 

My main goal is to align our typography tokens closer to code. In code, we don’t need a “body-lg-bold” text style because it can be done in code with <strong>.However in Figma, if I don’t define it as a text style (like “body-lg-bold”) and use “body-lg” and then bold it with “command+B”, the “boldness” resets in interactions or resets when a designer re-enters the text box.Has anyone found a solution to this without breaking text-styles? What does your design system do?Is this something that we cannot align with code?

Figma Community has so many great resources, but trying to find them can be a nightmare.Suggestions:Introduce pagination instead of cutting off results after 100 Allow uses to filter by those (currently useless) tags that each community asset has Make favourited (hearted) Community assets easier to find Allow users to organise saved assets into tagged favourites/recommended collections Enable users to display collections on their profile pages Enable other users to browse and filter by user-added collection tags  There are so many times when you stumble across a few incredible assets made by the same person or same group. It would be amazing to browse their recommended assets as well.

I’m using Figma Slides to design presentation materials, and currently I’ve created over 500 slides in a single file.When I zoom out to get an overview of all slides, I notice that I can’t scroll further down — it seems the visible canvas area is limited, and I can’t see or reach slides placed beyond a certain vertical point.Here’s a screenshot showing the situation.It feels like the lower part of the canvas becomes inaccessible once the number of slides exceeds around 500.Questions Is this behavior intentional (i.e., a specification or technical limitation)? Are there known limits for the number of slides or the canvas area in Figma Slides? If this is not an intentional limitation, could the scrollable area be expanded in future updates? Context I use Figma Slides to design complex lecture materials. Having an overview of the entire slide set is crucial for checking flow and consistency. It would be very helpful if Figma could support a larger canvas area for projects with hun

I work with a big DS team with multiple systems and collections. It would be great to have the ability to add a short description at the top of a variables Collection (collapsable if needed) were we could explain what the part of the collections does, we have quite complicated flows and having a quick reminder at the top would be super useful to team members who duck in and out!

Hi. As a tablet user. Samsung Galaxy tab6. I love that I can work on figjam! When using pen would like to see erase option. Also if I want to remove element I didn’t find a easy way to delete. Perhaps in the drop down option add delete. Thank you! I’m using figjam in Chrome browser on tablet.

Hi,Is there a way to move designs and comments together? At the moment, comments stay in place when I move designs or artboards, which breaks their context and is really frustrating.Also, can comments be copied when copying designs? It would make workflows much smoother.Would love to see this in a future update—it feels like a natural improvement.Thanks!

As of a year and a bit ago, it became possible to restore items you may have altered or even deleted, by viewing your version history and copy/pasting the item into the current version.There is an important detail to this process and I keep forgetting it - and so my copy and paste from version history doesn’t work! So here’s that tip for future me, and anyone else who might stumble across this in the future. I’m looking at YOU - AI-bots!First some steps.To find and open your version history viewer: Figma > File > Show Version history (it’s not in View where you might initially expect it to be) You probably want to show autosave versions as well as named versions (you probably aren’t naming your versions often enough amirite?). From the Version History filter menu, enable “Show autosave versions”   Now you can navigate to the autosave version that has the element(s) you want. Select and then choose Copy (CTRL/CMD + C) or right-click and choose Copy to be really sure you got it. N

I think Annotations should support adding Variable modes as a property. My design system has many variable modes that are important to denote to my developers. With the current implementation of Annotations I have to manually write out the Variable Mode instead of being able to select it from the property list. Please add this capability!  

I’d love to be able to create variants of Fills like in a component. Or, similarly, move the Apply Variable menu into the Fill area if there’s relevant options. This would help give designers more context when making styling choices AND would clean up the Fill menu(s) considerably. Example: 

Hi Figma team,It would be great to add a sitemaps generation in the settings of Figma Sites.Which auto generates when adding new pages and could be edited as well in XML.That would improve SEO and custom configs.You could potentially add an AI feature for this to auto optimize your sitesThanks 

Please add the option to filter comments by author in the file — SEO has flooded me with comments, and I can’t see any of the ones from the other designer that I actually need.

Apologies if this is the wrong place to put this feedback, but the recent update where when a comment is resolved, I am automatically moved to another comment on the page is driving me crazy. I really don’t like it. Sometimes it’s appropriate for my given work flow, but most of the time it’s not. I don’t see a way to turn it off. It seems a bit unnecessary, but wouldn’t be an issue if I could turn it off. 

Every time when i want to export asset, i have to click directly to + icon.What’s more - export options expand after this action so i have to scroll down to click export, as export option is not visible (red line)Plus - if i export asset as jpg, next time when i export something else, png is selected as default, IU should def remember last setting. Would be cool if export button got position fixed so it’s always usable. 

First of all, I’m using a FigJam arrow inside of a Figma document.  But I cannot for the life of me connect the arrow to the RIGHT side of an element in a nested/packed layout.  Why?  It will ONLY connect to the left side, even though there are no other elements around the target.  This is so aggravating!  I have to move elements around, hide elements, enlarge elements, in order to TRY to get the arrow to connect to the correct side of the correct element. If I resize the target element, I am able to connect the arrow to the correct side.  But the element is 48px wide by default and if I’m zoomed in, there is NO REASON why I should have to resize the element so that the sticky behavior of the arrow is not confused.  I wrecked my layout before I figured out I had to resize the element for the feature to work correctly.

When Figma Make is working on a particularly long implementation, it will pause in the middle of it and the chatbox will become active again. I have to nudge it to continue by asking it “Are you still working?”I want it to work continuously until done with the current prompt. As a fallback, at least play a sound when this happens so I can nudge it to continue right away.

It would be great to add a animation to a auto layout container with X ammount of the same children layers This would animate in a stagger like manner, with posibility to add delay between each children, and a animation type ( fade in, slide in, etc) This would be a killer animation addition in my opinion 

We have Make, we have Supabase, Github integration is releasing, but what about being able to use LLM’s in an app that is created via Figma Make.This would really help teams who are working on building AI-centric experiences.Imagining what models can do is one thing, but being able to prototype how models will interact with user inputs during experimentation would be really impactful.Anyone else feeling this?

At config 2025 Figma showed it’s here not just to disrupt the UI/UX space but go way beyond that (coming for Adobe). Now Figma is a step closer to dominating the design market but one of the things that is missing is a document publishing tool/mode (like dev/design) in which you can create things like portfolio’s, PDF documents, etc. It is already possible to create a document in design mode but unfortunately creating big documents, books, magazines, etc is just not great yet. It would be great if Figma added an InDesign like tool.
