New Cursors 4/04

PLEASE never get rid of this feature! Me and my lead creative are SO happy and love it so much. The “HUH” meme cat truly spoke to us. We love Figma!!!

Annotation of 'Auto' line height in dev mode does not show the line height value

When I annotate text in dev mode, when its line height is set as ‘Auto’, the annotation shows ‘Auto’ too. However, even ‘Auto’ exists as some numeric value, which does not show up in the annotation. Would be great if the line height could be annotated as e.g. ‘Auto, 19’, showing that its set as auto, but the numeric value associated with it is 19px

"See all layers" - not showing deep selection

It seems there’s a newish “feature” in the layers panel that collapses layers and has a ‘see all layers’ label. the problem with this is that when i deep select a layer (i.e. ctrl/cmd + click), it does not automatically go to that layer in the panel. instead it remains hidden under that collapsed state. super annoying! please fix this that so that it automatically exposes the layer in the panel when selected. also, there should be an option to turn this feature off, as it’s rather opinionated and not in a good way.

Offline Files/Mirrors in Mobile Apps

I often use the Figma Android and iOS apps to quickly share what the designs are with investors and friends. However, sometimes the internet connection where I am at isn’t the best and all I see is a white screen. Could we download the prototypes so we can still present them without a good internet connection? The screen I see when I don’t have a good enough internet connection:

Page number for presentation decks?

It would be amazing if Figma created a tool that can create pagination similar to InDesign or Keynote! Or any general tools to enhance presentation creations in Figma; the multi-edit tool is definitely heading in this direction! I’ve been making presentation decks in Figma for the past 3 years and relied on plugins so far. It works but not all the time which can really hinder a project that requires 200 pages needing page numbers 😦

Search results improvement

When I do (shift+ i) to search for a component, I find that the first results sometimes are less relevant. For example if I’m looking for our “text input” component, the first results that come up are icons like “text bold”, “Text markdown” which I never use. However I’ve used “Text input” thousands of times. It would be nice for the search results to consider the frequency a particular person uses something within the order of results. I’d want this “text input” to appear first to be clear.

Search Keyboard Shortcuts

“I increase font weight all the time. I wonder if there’s a keyboard shortcut for it.” CMD + / (quick-search appears) Type “Keyboard Shorcuts”, and press enter. (Shortcuts panel appears.) Type “font weight”. (Shortcuts > Text tab gets selected. “Font weight” is highlighted.) Memorize the shortcut. Click your text and use the shortcut (Shortcuts panel’s still open to help you remember.) The Problem: You have no idea whether a keyboard shortcut exists. You might not know the right terminology (“font boldness”). You have no clue which tab it might fall under. Solution: Search gets you there so much quicker, then back into your work.

Paste component overrides

Now that auto layout improvements and Variants have landed, my pages have more and more nested components. One common friction point I run into is the following: Pull a component out the library Set up overrides on a nested component, e.g. a button’s label or icon Decide I don’t want that button to go there, or I want to use a different component Set up the same overrides on a different button. What I’d like to have is some kind of “paste overrides” functionality, or maybe a “replace with component from clipboard.” Basically, I’d like to be able to: Copy my button instance with all its overrides Select another button or maybe some random nested component instance Hit Paste and watch the button and its overrides replace the selected layer It would really just be a shortcut for selecting a nested instance, using the swap menu to choose Button, and re-filling out the overrides. But saving time and cognitive load in those little repetitive actions would make the design/prototyping exp

Allow the ability to add a delay to a “while hovering” prototype interaction

You could use this to achieve a delay before showing a tooltip for example. I am finding the workarounds to not having this feature buggy and not successful in achieving such a simple use case like the delay on showing a tooltip. Please consider, thank you and please upvote if reading this and you agree!

Please add an "Instance Selection" mode

Problem: When dealing with lots of instances in our files it can be very time consuming to select the correct layer that contains the instance we want to modify. Current workflows: Command + Click on a child layer of an instance, then Shift + Enter until the parent instance is selected Repeatedly double clicking the canvas until the instance is selected Clicking on a child of an instance, and then the “select instance” button in the Design Panel or navigating the Layers Panel Command + Right Click and choose layer from popup menu All the above options require multiple steps and don’t feel efficient (aka supafast!). Suggested Solution: “Instance Select Mode” When this mode is active, the cursor would strongly favor Component Instances when hovering over layers. The smallest instance that exists at the mouse location would be selected when clicked, much like the current Command + Click behavior. While in this mode, Instances could be highlighted with a purple border to indicate that th

Right Panel Resize [Design, Prototype, Inspect]

The new properties feature is great. However giving it a name past some character length feels crowded and the ellipses do not help. I can scale the UI as documented in here but that does not help us laptop users. So I wish I could resize the panel to better see the name of the property, similar to how I resize the left (layers) panel.

Please revert decision to remove library update notifications

I’m talking about this change: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039234193-Review-and-accept-library-updates Please bring back library update notifications. Tiny little low contrast blue in a corner of a big screen as a sign of libarary updates guarantees that nobody notices to apply updates uness they were the one to make the changes and need them applied immdiately. Library updates were a buggy mess already and this only makes things worse.

Select matching layers + hidden layers

Select matching layers seems to ignore hidden layers. I’d love an option (perhaps a checkbox in the settings) to be able to select matching layers whether they’re hidden or not.

Edit multiple text style in a text

Hello, in the same fashion you have the possibility to change multiple colour styles in a document (which is called “selection colors”). It would be great to have a list of the different text styles used inside a text box and be able to change, break or create text styles based on this list.

Variant property values are not synced to variant order in root component

I don’t see value in being able to sort the property values order independent of the variant order. These lists are identical, why is their order not? I’m tired of manually syncing these two lists.

Paste here shortcut

I’m always copy/pasting autolayout frames and when I do this far from the right-most autolayout frame, it jumps me all across the canvas and I have to drag my frame back to where I was working. On twitter you guys mentioned paste here only works with the mouse so we know where ‘here’ is to paste. If there was a shortcut at least to just paste it in the middle of the canvas that would be nice.

Review animations in dev mode

DEV mode is useful for getting pixel-perfect implementation, but the problem occurs when we try to implement animations, as then developers need to eyeball the animation curves and durations, or record screen and review frame by frame, impacting effectiveness. It would be very useful to analyse or view animation information so implementation work would be smoother.

Feature Improvement: Checkboxes for resolving merge conflicts

Currently the only two ways to resolve merge conflicts is having to go through each page one by one and choosing whether or not to keep main vs keep branch. batch resolving all conflicts by choosing main or branch. The first way is so tedious, especially when there is only one small change that needs to be merged on one page in the branch, but all the other pages have changed a lot in the main. So we have to go through every single conflict and mark it as main except for the single page that needs to be branch. This is exacerbated by the slow rendering of each conflict, so we have to wait about 15-30 seconds for each to render before being able to select main or branch. The second way does not allow us to have much control over what is main or what is branch, and prevents us from being able to easily selecting the page(s) that need to keep branch. It’d be nice if there was a multi-select option where we can scan through the list of conflicts and choose which ones should keep main or

This is a common mobile interaction so it feels like a big miss to not include it. This has limited my ability to test some things in the app I’m designing which is a bummer.

🚀 Bringing Automated Testing to Figma Prototypes: Let’s Make it Happen!

Hey amazing Figma community! 👋 Are you tired of the repetitive tasks involved in user research and testing? Do you dream of a more efficient way to validate your designs? Well, I’ve got an exciting idea that could revolutionize the way we test Figma prototypes, but I need your support to make it a reality! Earlier this year, I came across Tencent’s groundbreaking AppAgent project. This project utilizes a Large Language Model (LLM) to understand and interact with Android apps autonomously. I was inspired and thought, “Why can’t we bring this same level of automation to Figma prototypes?” So, I rolled up my sleeves and got to work. Using the Chrome browser’s API, I developed a prototype that demonstrates the potential of automated testing within Figma. Check out this quick demo video to see it in action! However, here’s the catch: Figma currently doesn’t provide an API for prototype screens. But fear not! With your help, we can change that. By showing our collective enthusiasm an

Show progress or status when updating components

We have pretty big design files and several libraries with components and styles. When applying libraries updates, especially if the file is an older one and has a lot of updates queued up, Figma just freezes for a significant amount of time without giving any feedback. It would be much better if there at least was a status message, like “Applying updates, please wait.” Or, ideally, a progress indicator.
