Summary:Please expand Figma’s background blur support beyond frames and components to include vector shapes and boolean objects. This enhancement would significantly improve design flexibility and enable more advanced UI effects.Details:Currently, Figma restricts the use of background blur (glassmorphism) to frames and components. While effective in many workflows, this limitation creates unnecessary friction when attempting to apply blur to non-rectangular or custom shapes—such as triangles, circles, icons, or complex boolean forms.Designers seeking to replicate stylized interfaces (e.g., macOS Aqua or Tahoe icons) or craft more expressive UI elements are forced to use masking techniques with frames. These workarounds can lead to fragile layering, reduced editability, and increased file complexity.Proposed Solution: Extend background blur support to vector shapes (e.g., polygons, ellipses, stars). Enable blur rendering for boolean groups (union, subtract, intersect, exclude). Ensu

Am I missing something or is the old Community home completely gone?It used to feel like its own place, with clear navigation, and a nice way to filter and discover new plugins.The new “Tools & Templates” tab just feels so…. clinical, sterile, barebones. It feels like a downgrade.

Introduce a new Figma AI capability that allows users to generate complete design libraries—such as Design Systems—using natural language prompts. Once created, these libraries can be automatically referenced across other Figma files, enabling seamless reuse and consistency.For example, a user could prompt Figma AI to “Create a modern Design System with components for web and mobile”, and then in a separate file, ask “Generate a SaaS dashboard UI using the previously created Design System”. Figma AI would intelligently reference the original library, ensuring design consistency and reducing manual linking.This feature would streamline workflows, promote scalable design practices, and empower teams to build faster with AI-assisted modularity. Concept(A Figma UI mockup showcasing a new AI-powered feature. The screen is split into two panels. On the left, a user types a prompt into a Figma AI assistant: 'Create a modern Design System for web and mobile.' The AI responds with a generated l

When flicking through slides in Slide View (Figma Slides) setting the view % on a page, will just reset and fit to screen if you move to another slide.  Is there a way to lock the view % so that we can control the review / design process as we can in other programs?

make it possible to create an expression in variables in which it would be possible to perform operations on variables of the same data type as the variable that contains the equation

When you have alot of variables it would be nice to be able to search for specific things

Hi FigJam team, We absolutely love using FigJam for creating flows and diagrams, but we've hit a snag with the line connection functionality, especially when lines need to cross. It would be a big help if FigJam could add a feature where one line arcs or "jumps" over another when they intersect. This would make our diagrams much clearer and easier to understand.Thanks for looking into this! 

It would be amazing to have adjustable view and edit permissions for pages within a Figma File.The file owner could grant general View or Edit permissions to whoever they share the file with like they can now.Within pages, the file owner could override someone’s View permission to give them Edit access for the one specific page. This would be great in making sure changes are only being made to dedicated pages.

When you use the pen tool to draw a vector image, normally when you use the bend option, it's automatically set to ‘Mirror Angle.’ But then I mostly have to manually change it to ‘No Mirroring’ since that helps more with the accuracy of the edges of the images I want to create. But when I have really big images, it gets tiring having to always change the settings to ‘No Mirroring’ for every single point. Isn’t there a way to automatically leave the settings on the last option selected instead of it always being set to ‘Mirror Angle’? Or is there a keyboard shortcut for that?

I really liked the Glass effect. But it cannot be exported to SVG or via the "Figma to HTML" plugin. Can you fix it?Sincerely, Vidasik.

I’ve spent hours manually removing unused variants, removing ghost fills and aligning thousands of icons in a very specific way. We all have these days of just rote boring execution work and I think there’s a great surface area there to explore with AI, beyond the few AI-commands already provided (E.g. rename layers) 

I want to do copy QA in Figjam by using the table component and pasting images into it, underlining certain sections and in the column next to the column with the image indicating the new copy

Hello, I found out that if i create an interactive component (ex: Button), and place it inside a a main component (obsiously as an instance), the interactions are no longer working. But if you create an instance of the parent component, then it all works as expected.

I spend a lot of time undoing the automatic auto layout adjustments that Figma applies in order to maintain the existing layout structure. This is frustrating because I understand how all the resizing parameters work, and I only change the ones I want to change. But in an attempt to help me and retain the current layout, the UI changes parameters that were previously the way I wanted them. So while auto layout still saves me time, it also wastes my time by putting me in a position where I have to go through, layer by layer, undoing the auto-adjustments. (Usually changing a layer’s width or height from “fixed” back to “fill” or “hug”.) I understand some users may actually like this, and it’s hard to please everyone. I would be more than grateful for an option that allows me to disable this automatic behavior.

To enhance flexibility and optimize workspace organization, it would be beneficial to allow users to move the windows for variables, prototypes, and plugins outside Figma’s main interface, positioning them freely on the desktop. This feature would help users better arrange their workflow, especially for those using multi-monitor setups or needing a cleaner and more focused workspace. Imagine being able to place the prototype window on a secondary monitor while working on the main canvas, or keeping a plugin window open without it interfering with your design. Additionally, these windows could remember their position, reopening in the same spot during the next session to ensure a seamless user experience.

On a regular basis, whenever I have to move a file, I click on “Drafts”, thinking that it will let me move the file. But, this takes me to all Drafts, which I understand is probably the desired state for when the file is in a correct project folder. However, this drives me crazy every single time that I try to move something from drafts, which happens regularly given I create files outside of projects most of the time. Would love consideration on changing the Draft state for moving. 

In this case I have the same component duplicated four times to have five placed instances total. When selecting one of the inside pieces, Figma highlights those same pieces in other parent instances. But there’s no way to select those things Figma’s highlighting without intermediate steps like searching by name. Clicking them all one by one in this example isn’t too bad, but doing it with some nested component across a dozen prototype screens is pretty bad. It’d be really cool if I could hit some keyboard shortcut or a quick action to go with the existing “select all ” options. (Select all with same instance doesn’t work, it selects all the parent components instead of the highlighted pieces) With it already being highlighted, it feels so close yet so far.

Hello,I’ve been and building with Figma Make which I find very impressive.By iterating, a lot of files has been created and many are not in used which leads to pollution and model confusionCan you build an UI in the interface or give possibility to the AI to delete files? 

STOP MOVING THE TOOLS AROUND THE CANVAS, CHANGING THEIR ON-LOAD DEFAULT VIEWS, AND GIVE COMMUNITY AN ACTUAL PLACE TO LIVE OTHER THAN EVERY SINGLE PLACE YOU’VE TRIED. HOLY CRAP HOW ARE YOU GUYS GOING IPO? YOU CANT EVEN MAKE A SINGLE DECISION AND STICK WITH IT FEATURE REQUEST: CONSISTENCY AND RELIABILITY. I DONT USE POWER TOOLS THAT ARENT RELIABLE, SO WHY SHOULD I USE A PIECE OF SOFTWARE THAT DOESNT RELIABLY HAVE THE FUNCTIONS I NEED IN ONE SPOT

Currently what we make in “Figma Make” is not directly editable in figma design tool. To change anything we need to command which makes the design worsen often. So we designers need to have the power to copy/move/cut from “Figma Make” design and paste it in the figma design tool , to iterate and tweak faster.

Recently, I needed to create some typography based graphics in my website project, I did not find any option to align the text to pen paths or shapes. It would be a must feature in Figma as the usecase prevails for many designers out here and in many projects. Yes, there are some extensions available but they are limited in functionality, do not provide necessary mechanisms. Please upvote this of you have came across to the same need.

Config 2025 release broke my designs with Grid!And it could be an upgrade, if:Grid could HUG CONTENTS (row, column, grid itself) Rows, columns and cells could be resized (fixed value, %, colspan/rowspan, flex-grow value) Switch between flex wrap (items jumping to next row) and grid

Team,Why can’t I use a component set as an overlay and specify the variant I want to choose? Friends? Please. Otherwise, I have to make an instance that just sits there strictly for overlay. Same thing with  navigate to, really. Disorganizes the file and makes it “heavier” than preferred. Please, fix this.
