Your software is a masterclass in how not to design an interface.I click one element, perform an action, then click another element to do the exact same thing, and the entire layout collapses.There is no way to diagnose what happened because your options auto-hide. There is no feedback, or clarity. Nothing but broken workflows.Stop trying to be clever. Stop chasing some illusion of minimalism that serves literally ZERO purpose.Hire developers who understand what predictable, reliable interfaces look like. For three decades, core UX standards have guided every serious design tool on the market. Your team ignored all of it and delivered a product that feels like fighting a shopping cart with a broken front wheel.You bury essential tools under layers of useless clicks while plastering non-critical stuff front and center. It is mind boggling.And your documentation is as useless as your interface. Answers are vague or incomplete. There’s no explanation as to WHY something does what it does

Hi team,Variable modes are incredibly helpful for testing layout behaviors in the Editor. Typically, we duplicate frames and assign modes like Desktop, Tablet, or Mobile. While this works, it doesn’t extend well into Presentation mode.Currently: Presentation → Responsive works nicely with Auto Layout + min/max constraints. However, variable modes remain static—locked to whatever mode was manually applied to a frame. The existing “Auto” mode is limited to inheritance (children follow parent), but the parent itself still requires a manual mode switch. Feature Request:Introduce a real “Responsive Auto Mode” that automatically applies the correct variable mode based on the element’s width.  I know this might not be a fully realistic approach, since Figma can’t always know which numeric variable should be responsible for triggering a breakpoint.An alternative would be to add a “Responsive” toggle in the Variables panel, where the designer explicitly marks which variable (e.g. width, bre

I think that figma is being a complete all rounder tool as the days are going. As a UI designer I'd love to see some more changes in figma if it's possible.1. I know there's already a brush tool system. But i think that it'd be nice if we can see a complete brush tool with all the elements like masking and other stuff. using brush tool to create cool effects.2. More text styling options like illustrator. UI design nowadays knows no boundaries. to achieve that we need to do different types of styling of texts. there's a lot but there is some options missing, If those were in figma, it would have been cool.4. I know everything should not be free. But I think we should have a test of figma sites as starter plan user. If it's possible then consider it kindly.3. Lastly, I'd love to see a figma softwares AI image tracer which will trace images with all the color. trust me it is both helpful for graphics designers and UI designers.Thanks Figma team for the amazing surprises you bring up on ev

This is similar/related to an old post from 4 years ago:  I still am not seeing Descriptions shown in Dev Mode. I would expect to see it as a comment at least, or in the Properties view somewhere. This is so that a specific meaning/purpose we provide is visible for the engineers as well.Editing style: Dev Mode panel ☹️: 

Need recommendations for a reliable PET CT scan in Delhi. I’ve heard PET-CT combines two imaging techniques for more accurate results. Molecular Imaging & Therapy looks promising but I’d like to hear from someone who has actually been there. Info here: https://www.molecularit.com/services/PET_CT

It would be helpful if Figma notification previews in Slack showed the Figma page name in addition to the Figma file name. We often have multiple conversations happening across different pages within files, so knowing the specific page would provide better context. Just a thought for future updates!

Currently, when I share a link to a particular frame in Slack, the preview shows the whole canvas with many frames. I would prefer to see the shared frame in the preview instead.

When creating a new file in Figma, it would be helpful to display a “Write File Name” modal. This modal could include: A file name input field An option to move the file to a specific project/folder A “Skip for now” option This feature would streamline file organization, reduce clutter, and be especially helpful for beginners who might forget to name or organize their files right away.

I’d like to request a feature that would help for many workflows: export comments from a FigJam board.For retros, audits, or sharing outside of FigJam, it would save a lot of time if we could export comments as a CSV, JSON, or even a simple text list.Features: Export comments (with timestamps, author, and thread structure) to CSV or JSON. Filter by time range or by author before export. Include reference to the canvas location (e.g., coordinates or object ID) for each comment. Thanks 🤘

Figma Make is great for creating animations and interactions, but it’s pretty annoying that it ‘improves’ the content all the time. I work with real content that is complex. That complexity is part of the problem I’m trying to solve, so it doesn’t work that Figma deletes it and proudly proclaimes that this is better for the user.In my second attempt I created the animations and interactions first. Then I tried to insert the real content piece by piece (‘replace this paragraph for this paragraph’). That also did not work; Figma Make still changes the structure and rewrites the content. (And not only the content I’m working on but in the whole page..)So.. is there a way to prevent this?

Please add the Figma own Feature of Speech to Text

Why is Component Configuration hidden in the toolbar now?It used to be directly visible in the toolbar, but now it’s tucked away behind the “More options” menu. Our team works heavily with metadata in our asset libraries, and having to click the extra menu every single time gets really frustrating.Was there a specific reason for moving it?

Hello Figma Team,I am currently creating tables using a table plugin in Figma.Inside a frame component, I place text components and adjust their size to fill the cells. However, whenever I tab into the cell, the text component gets deleted automatically.Even if I intentionally type and then delete characters, leaving the text field empty, the text component is automatically removed. Because of this behavior, I cannot build a proper table template.At the moment, my only workaround is to insert a space character to prevent deletion, but this causes frequent mistakes such as accidentally starting text with an extra space. This is not an ideal solution.It seems this is not a plugin issue but rather Figma’s default behavior of auto-deleting empty text components.Suggestion:If a text component is placed inside a frame (e.g., a table cell), it should not be automatically deleted when empty. This would allow users to create table templates more effectively without resorting to hacks like invis

I had thought It would replace content based on a prompt. My use-case: I had a list of items and wanted to have them replace with the latest content. Ideally, I could paste in my unformatted list and it would put that into my list component I had selected. Instead it did more of a copy edit on the existing content. What is the purpose of this option, versus “Rewrite this...”

Hi Figma team,I’ve encountered an issue when trying to apply a linear gradient to a single word inside a text layer.When I highlight just one word and apply a gradient (via the fill panel), the gradient technically applies, but no gradient handles appear on the canvas. This makes it impossible to adjust the direction, angle, or position of the gradient for that specific word.Steps to reproduce: Create a text layer with multiple words. Highlight just one word. Apply a linear gradient via the Fill settings. Try to adjust the gradient. Expected behavior:Gradient handles (start and end points) should appear, just like they do when applying a gradient to an entire shape or full text layer. I should be able to control the direction of the gradient within the selected word.Actual behavior:No gradient nodes/handles appear when the gradient is applied to only a portion of the text. The gradient applies, but I have no way to control it visually.Please let me know if this is a known limitat

Question, if the cell contains the public URL to the image instead of a pasted image into the cell, does that not work?

I think Figma should have a feature that lets you update an entire list of typography used in a design system.It’s so tiring editing this one by one  

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.

Like in the design tool, I will be interesting to have components in Figma Slides. That way, designers can create templates for the company and non designer have only one place to change the footer on all slides. If we can have the option to add pagination to the footer or anywhere it will be a big plus.

Often when prototyping tools/UIs with canvases, a few fundamental interactions are needed. Scroll up/down Scroll left/right Zoom in/out Unfortunately, that last zoom in/out one isn’t possible in Figma as far as I can tell. It would be really great to incorporate this type of interaction in the same place that frame scrolling can be specified. Prototyping use cases: UIs with Maps (tracking apps, location apps, travel apps, delivery apps, etc) UIs with creative canvases (illustrator, photoshop, Figma, sketch, etc) UIs for analysis tools (spatial biology analysis, general sample analysis, etc) UIs for brainstorming tools (Figjam, Miro, google whiteboard, etc) This feels like it would be relatively basic to add but what do I know about programing lol. Anyways, would be really awesome and add a new dimension of interactivity to canvas based tools.

Hey everyone! We've been using Figma’s Slack integration to keep our team in sync, and I’d like to suggest an improvement: having notifications sent to a public Slack channel when a frame or design is marked as Ready for dev — not just as personal alerts.Right now, the Slack integration only notifies us about comments and mentions. But when it comes to dev handoff, it’d be super useful to have those status updates posted in team channels to keep everyone (Product and Dev team) aligned in real time, adding visibility and transparency.

Hey everyone,I’m exploring ways to streamline customer service for my small business and have been researching different options. I’ve read that customer support automation tools can really help reduce response times, improve efficiency, and free up my team to focus on more complex issues. However, with so many platforms out there, it’s a bit overwhelming to know which ones are reliable and worth the investment.What customer support automation tools have you used, and what features do you find most valuable? Any recommendations or pitfalls I should be aware of before committing?

how can i expand this ??????????? too narrow!  or please expand this.  I feel frustrated every time I use that part. I think it should be at least twice as wide.​​​​​​​+I wish there was a font favorites feature.
