Figma desperately needs to expand the overrides that can be reset. For overrides that are not in the list, “Reset All” is a massively inconvenient alternative as it resets things you had no intent of resetting. Every property would be great, but notable top priority: Reset Height Individually Reset Width Individually Reset Autolayout Resizing (Fill, Hug, Etc). Reset Autolayout Spacing Reset Autolayout Padding Reset Clip Content Reset Border Radius Being able to reset on a more granular level is the takeaway here. I feel this doesn’t get enough love, but is a daily annoyance for those trying to retain a source of truth with their Components. If anything, open up the capability for a contributor to build a plugin. If one exists, please point me in the right direction. 🙏

Would be nice to have a feature that allows to reset specific parts of an instance: Shadow Background color of a container Border of a container  ...

Would love the option to set the color of the page to a variable. In an effort to create more uniformity and consistency across files, I created a variable collection for documentation colors, however I’m unable to define the page color using variables. This would be especially useful for documents with 10+ pages, as it’d be an easy way to keep the page background colors all aligned.

PLease stop moving most commonly used buttons to new places all the time!It isvery bad us practise, each time I need to spend time to learn where I can find an options that was moved or has a new look, like whith this auto layout flow buttons, which where presented as a dropdown before. Very subtle and unexpected change.

I think we need to move the aligning panel back to the right, I found myself use gap input more that aligning and by long shot.   

Hi!I wish that when I copy a stroke, the stroke retains its individual stroke-position when pasted. Right now, if I copy a stroke it will paste as an “all stroke” even if the original only applied to one side.Further, I wish it was possible to select multiple individual strokes for one object, such that I could have different weights and colors for each side.I am unaware if these suggestions have been made previously, but I wanted to mention them anyways!Thanks!

 I stare at it, looking for the option I want before finding it. Here is what throws me off. For reference, there are the five rows of controls presented:Here’s what’s confusing to me.In row 2, the left-most button switches modes (auto, freeform), but it’s *inside* the mode that is set by row 1, confusingly in the same row as the mode modifiers. Also, the icon for this button is meaningless to me. Rows 2 and 4 four directly affect each other, yet they are separated by W/H. Rows 3 and 5 directly affect each other, yet they are separated by layout origin/spacing. BTW I love the layout of row 4! It’s just feels like it’s in the wrong place. This would make so much more sense (to me)

Add opportunity to wrap verticaly to use grid for layers with different proportions

Need print funtionality and MP4/CMYK export now we have buzz. To compete with Canva. It is the last thing keeping canva users from using figma that export functionality. Also display in CMYK. Crops and bleed options too. MP4 to export animations.

Honestly i’m not impressed with this year feature update. Last year changed the ui a LOT!!! which was a learning curve for everyone and this year you still changed the major features: autolayout, layers panel, draw feature.Layers panel:I get you added the thumbnail of frames,groups to give clarity but it actually is distracting and taking too much space and not doing it’s basic job of telling me which frame is horizontal aligned or vertical, it’s not even clear that it is an autolayout or frame or group. Unless i don’t rename them i’ll have no way of knowing it, If there’s a way please let me know. But otherwise it was needed and hampering my workflow right now. I like the old icon pattern look which was clear right away, not making me think twice.Autolayout: It is changed again with too many icons at top, even if you explain us the meaning it is still not making sense to me. LAST YEAR changes made a lot of sense for me as you grouped

Figma Buzz me parece una función fascinante que ya hacía falta. Sin embargo, tengo algunas sugerencias para potenciarlo (o quizás ya existen pero no he logrado encontrarlas). En cualquier caso, aquí las presento: Assets frecuentes: Sería muy útil contar con una sección donde se puedan añadir elementos como logos o imágenes que usamos constantemente en nuestros diseños. De esta forma, cualquier usuario con acceso al archivo podría arrastrarlos y soltarlos fácilmente desde allí, como una especie de panel de recursos predeterminados. Exportación de carruseles: ¿Existe alguna manera de exportar una sola publicación dividida automáticamente en partes iguales? Por ejemplo, al crear carruseles para Instagram que están conectados visualmente, solemos trabajar en un solo frame, pero luego debemos exportar y recortar manualmente con otras aplicaciones. Tener una opción para dividir y exportar según un tamaño específico sería i

I’m a UI designer, not an analytic or product designer and Figma UI3 is a huge drawback for me for many reasons.Now I need to search where the @$#% size/position and layout section is. Every. %!@#*&$. Time. It just exhausts me. Effects section is now above selection colors? WHY? WHO HAVE ASKED FOR THIS? Back in the day all assets were shown simultaneously and I could have pick them instantly, now I need to navigate through folders and to try and remember where have I placed them. Plugins are now buried in sub-submenu for like why? They don’t matter anymore?PLEASE PLEASE at least let us customise your shiny new piece of… refined and exquisite design.

Did you actually test UI3 on power users? I suspect not given that the simple and intuitive UI2 is now ruined by annoying extra clicking and UI elements not being  placed together. This “update” is a backwards step and we as users should be able to choose and configure how we want the UI for our purposes. The bottom centre floating tool bar is just wrong for power users. 

Fundamental to using any digital whiteboard, is being able to hyperink image elements.Please consider adding this to the pipeline! It’s a huge setback to using Figjam and lags behind competitors for a basic requirement. Community, I’m not alone. Please chime in! 🙏

When I use lines to visually show navigation between screens (like button-to-screen flows), I often run into issues with drag selection. Even when I’m not hovering directly over a line, the bounding box gets picked up, which makes it hard to select other elements nearby.It would be helpful to have an option to only select a line when the stroke itself is clicked or dragged over and not the entire bounding box. This would make drag selection much more precise when working with visual flow diagrams.

Hey Figma Team,Now that the Figma Sites are here, all my website ideas can be implemented. But some of them require the ability to fetch and showcase live data from existing databases like, Notion, Google Sheets, etc. I want a feature like Framer Fetch that can allow me to fetch external data and sync any thing from Figma into the database, essentially allowing Two-Way Sync. Please, would appreciate having such a feature.

Hello there Dear Figma community! Figma is great and perfect.It is unque and also user friendly.Its new tools like buzz and drwing are fantastic.Its prototyping is fast and smart.Its collaboration and dev modes are all great.But for making it further perfect can you please add some more interactions like scroll in veiw and tilt oter interactions.Please also add cursor bar in which we can creat custom cursors that will be used in our app or website.I hope that you will add these features soon.I will be very thankful to you!

I want to choose origin x y position

I am excited about the new figma features, but especially about the figma grid. But the problem is - I do not understand how to work with grids. I tried playground and I couldn't do the first task😁 Well, I'm not the brightest mind, so can we please have a video tutorial? And not just for grids! I would also like to see an overview of the other new features. My brain is struggling with all the new updates. It's easier to watch and follow a tutorial, at least for me :) And can you please add Hug option for grids too?   Thanks a lot!

Huge!! 🌳

Hello there !I am a designer working with dev all day. So we (dev and me) have high hopes for dev mode. And now it's relatively interesting to work with. But there's still one thing missing... When the ‘open overlay’ interaction generates a background colour, this background is not mentioned in the dev mode interaction section (this is for the pop up case)… I mention this because, my devs don't have the reflex to look at interactions in prototype mode. So they miss them. And one more thing, the export of CSS is no more available ?Thank you a lot for your work.Marine

Please, for the love of everything mighty, add an item “Cancel request to edit” in the dropdown menu below the name of the file. It happened to me several times that I clicked by accident on the “Ask to edit” button, on files that I REALLY didn’t want to touch, and the mere thought of the poor file owner wondering who’s that random guy who requested access to their own file is so embarassing to me…

Hello,I currently can’t use half of the keyboard shortcut because I use an azerty keyboard on PC. The current Figma azerty layout is only valid for mac. The layout in Figma My layout Out of the 3 essentials shortcuts, I cant do one of them at all and I have to remember the correct key for another, so I can only do 1 out 3 without thinking about it. There are two different layouts for UK keyboards (Mac and PC) already so it would be great to have the same for french! Thank you

Built-in support for sound/audio interactions in prototypes especially for simple transitions for better engagement
