It would be more useful if wherever a file was shown in the dashboard, its project and team was shown underneath it. For example, our structure is often… Team: Client name Project: Capital projects File: Product page redesign When I add ‘product page redesign’ to my favourites or when seeing it in the recent files list, it’s can be confusing to understand what team or project it’s part of. I’m often lost in a grid of ‘Website Redesign’ files and having to squint at the thumbnails to figure out what file it actually is. Sure, I could prepend every file with the client name e.g. Client name: Website redesign. But this seems like a poor workaround as it’s repetitive and means that the number of characters that will show the actual file name will be reduced as they are truncated. Anyone else have this issue? Thanks

Current: right click project “Settings” Click name type in new name Desired:right click project “Rename Project” type in new nameAlso, if you try to add special characters, the error message spits you back out on the Settings screen, whereas it should just keep you on the Rename form

​​​​​The button for this was so easy to find always in the bottom left of the screen. First the icon recently changed to what looked like a notebook, then it kept moving around and now disappearing all together. It’s now completely gone, and after minutes of searching the closest thing I found was the Templates and tools section, but it is broken as the search function always returns the same set of results shown in the screenshot.

Why does a perfectly functioning thing constantly have to get changed, confusing the users?  

Currently, Figma does not support a direct way to join two different strokes together. This makes it difficult to create clean and continuous vector paths when working on illustrations, icons, or custom shapes.The proposed Stroke Joining feature would allow users to select two open stroke endpoints and merge them into a single, seamless path with proper alignment. This would work similarly to the "Join" tool in vector software like Illustrator, making vector editing faster and more precise.

The brand I work for has multiple branches with their own colors, each color containing 8 different hues. I created a color style for each color and use them when creating designs. Sometimes I need to play around with the colors to find the correct hue, but this can be very frustrating due to the fact that when I click ‘Fill → Library → select my color’ the menu immidiatly closes. If I have to do that 8 times to find the right hue + circle back to the best options that means I have to click at least 18 times. But if the menu would stay open I could do it within 9 clicks. This might not seem like much at a glance, but when you have over 25 shapes/text blocks on a page that need color that means I have to do 450 clicks instead of 225. I can see how the menu staying open is not helpful in everybody's usercase, but having a toggle somewhere where I can choose whether I want this menu to stay after a selection would be very helpful and save me a lot of clicks. TLDR; When selecting a pre-set

Hey, I’ve got a feature that could be quite handy for me, and I believe others might welcome it as well. Since we have got variables with different modes, it is a shame we cannot apply those to the main frame in which we design the UI. As one designs on eg. 1920px width, the design is not comfortably viewable on MacBook’s 1512px default resolution - it is either with black bars around (fit width, fit height) or the design gets cropped and horizontal scroll appears (responsive, actual size). It has to be then either viewed in this distorted view, or you have to change the canvas width. What I suggest is being able to apply variables width and height (together with min. & max values) onto the main artboard as well - designer can then create tokens, eg:Width (1200; 1512; 1740; 1920)HeightMin/Max height (932 - for users on 1920 res screens on Chrome with a bookmark bar, 832 for users on Macs with chrome with 1512 res)and resize the canvas on two clicks in the appearance panel. When thi

Hello, Figma team.I want to provide feedback on a long-standing interaction design issue that has been bothering me: the pink spacing adjustment handle that appears when hovering between items in an auto-layout.Frankly speaking, this feature does more harm than good in my daily work. Its original intention may have been to allow for quick adjustments, but when dealing with complex components that contain many nested items, the specific problems are: It obscures elements: The handle often covers the very small elements I am trying to select, making precise selections difficult without excessive zooming. It's accidentally triggered: Most of the time, my intent is simply to select an item, but the handle gets triggered unintentionally. This greatly interrupts my workflow and breaks my focus. In most cases, I choose to input precise values in the property panel on the right to control spacing, as this method is more controllable and aligns better with the idea of component-based design.

I love using Figma’s dynamic stroke to create textured edges. But it only works on strokes not fills or paths directly.I’d love the ability to apply Dynamic Stroke to a shape’s outline without needing a stroke, so I can combine it with effects like inner shadow, layer blur, or drop shadow.The current workaround (outlining the stroke and converting it to a fill) is destructive and makes it hard to tweak later.

When the board must to scroll (either hor. or ver.) ，user must click the Hand tool then click & drag it to scroll the board. how about to add a new way by clicking the mouse’s right button for a while then user can draging it to scroll directly.

So I recently started using Figma and I generally love it.However a few things are starting to feel annoying and clunky, especially because I am used to something better.Technical Context:- Browser (Firefox) on PCTry using miro.com because the do a few things very well:Right-click & hold => Moving around. No need to switch the mouse mode just to move around. (Yes there is the middle mouse button but the usability of that is highly dependent on the mouse model and most mouses I used till now have a good scroll functionality but not middle mouse click, let alone holding the click. Resizing Text: In miro there is a redundancy where you can resize the font-size by resizing the box the text is in automatically. Now I have to click select the text box and have to find the small font-size option and try out various sizes till I am finally satisfied. Also the typography settings are like low on the list of settings. I would switch them with position because I do Positioning with the mou

Currently, if I try to use a vector image as a fill, Figma tells me that it can’t use vector images as fills. Can that be changed?

I’ve noticed Figma adding absolute positioning to certain elements in an autolayout frame automatically. This is unexpected, unpredictable and simply annoying behavior. Adding several more steps to creating a simple autolayout. Most autolayout frames don’t have an absolute positioned element. So it would be best to leave this button as a manual toggle. I’d be happy if we could turn this behavior off via a user-setting. Vote for the feature request if you agree!

As a user, make it easy for me to duplicate a file, and bring my chat with me, so that I can version control a “stable build”, but I can make variations for presentations. I would love a tabbed view where, based on the parent build, I can make versions with variations so that engineers and founders can help me pivot directions, and only merge back certain components to the parent file.

Please add search and filter in Library Analytics. As a design systems manager overseeing multiple consumer and business-facing products, navigating hundreds of variables, styles, and components without these features is challenging. Adding search and filter functionality would greatly improve efficiency and save time for users like me.

Hey, i face a bug since there has been an update on the preserve scroll position behavior yesterday. By now the former preserve scroll position, which i had to set manually before is now set as default. So i don’t need to tick the box anymore. But, in my protoype, although i expect now that the scroll position is preserved by default, it is not working correctly. From screen to screen my prototype is jumping to the top. I need to ship my proto today to the client and this is super annoying. Anyone faces the same issue since yesterday? @Figma_Support can you roll back the feature? 🙏

When I’m in the Figma desktop app, there’s no way (that I know of) for opening a file by URL. My only option is to paste the link into Chrome, and have Chrome bounce me back to the Figma app. I would love to see a feature in the Figma desktop app that lets me paste a Figma link and open the file without needing to use Chrome at all.

Opening a file is CMD + O. Make opening a file from a link CMD + SHIFT + O. I use the desktop app so I’m usually copying a link and having to navigate up to the top of my large 34" monitor to open from clipboard. There’s a shortcut for opening a file which I have done maybe once in 5 years. It seems like a pretty logical next step to just have cmd + shift + O be the operator to open a file a different way. Adding the shift will also reduce accidental launches. Also, waiting for Chrome to load it and then clicking open in app isn’t an ideal option for me. I use Arc and a Chrome App for Meet so links from slack open in Arc and links from Meet open in Chrome and it becomes a navigation nightmare.

Hello! I’m taking a course that just touched on community content. I use a large secondary monitor and, on the Figma app, the “Explore Community” button - currently at the bottom left of the window, is not where I would intuitively look to find it (nor is it anywhere near where the instructor’s version from years ago shows it). I suggest moving it back to the upper left area of the window, closer to the recents/“Your Teams” options reside.

When I manually type or paste a color code, if that color already exists in my library, it would be great if the library’s color name automatically replaced the code. 

Please make Zoom zero-in on the selected objects; most apps do this. It would save zooming in on, and then panning to re-locate your work.

You have the hand tool icon in the toolbox in View mode, please also have it in Edit mode. It is a great comfort when you want to navigate and review, but be sure not to inadvertently edit, any work. 

Amazing tool. I switched from funnelytics. Things missing: I would love to see the possibility to choose custom colors for every element Be able to resize how I want to notes Be able to include notes in logos (a sort of popup with text linked to an image) Be able to change the text color when I write in a square Be able to upload custom stamps That’s all for now, congrats on your work!

Hey Figma Team! I'm a huge fan and use Figma for everything, but I have to say, the absence of a text threading feature is a real workflow killer! Trying to create multi-page documents is a constant struggle of manually cutting and pasting text, which feels so clunky compared to the seamless power of Auto-Layout. It's like having a supercar but being forced to fill it up with a teaspoon. Being able to link text boxes would be a massive game-changer, making long-form document creation a breeze and solidifying Figma as the ultimate design tool. This feels like such a fundamental feature, and I know the design community would be thrilled to see it happen!

Genuine question, is Figma community removed from the software? because I cannot find it anywhere.

Hi team, as it appears that you won’t be releasing an iPad app anytime soon, please allow me to hide the open in app bar in the web experience so I can save some screen real estate.The app is only a viewer, and handy on very rare occasion, so I prefer to keep it installed on my device. However this banner pops up if I have it installed. This has caused me to uninstall the app a couple times to prevent it from showing up, only to install it later for a specific reason.Attached is my suggested dismiss button, carefully drawn in panic red.
