In the new Draw feature, when an effect is applied to an object, the effect’s values (e.g., X, Y, blur, spread, etc) are conveniently shown in the sidebar — which is super helpful!However, in Design mode, these values aren’t visible in the sidebar. Instead, you have to manually open the effect settings to view them, which interrupts the workflow.It would be great to bring the same sidebar notation from the Draw feature into Design mode. Thanks for considering! 

I need a “State Machine” in Figma.I mean, variants are ok. But limited and to create advanced interactivity it gets complex with conditional logic.So yeah, a state machine, would be great. 

Currently working on a component as a test for the new Figma Buzz beta and think the ability to automate asset creations is a real time saver. What would be great is the ability to assign a variable or colour value in the excel document to the fill/stroke/text colour. Example: In the excel document, if you put in the relevant value (be it a hex code or a var string (--Brand-Colour-Peony-600) then the assets would change based on the design systems variables and colours.PS: it wouldn’t hurt tom have a mode selection too.

Love the product, recently switched from powerpoint and never switching back. The general compatability just makes figma slides ruthlessly better.I am experiencing a problem, however, with exports being very large in size. Ideally I would like to share sales meeting and pitchdecks with customers and investors but files tend to be larger than the 25mb email limit after exporing as pdfs.Would be neat with some better compression capabilities for figma slides!

Hello everyone,I've been using Figma at work for over a year, and there are some things I still don't really get or use it better to get the most out of it. Maybe it's my fault for not paying enough attention to all the tutorial videos, but I don't really understand the idea of 'anchoring' an element in your frame based on size changes, making sure that the element stays in the same place.It would be really helpful to know the distance from the constraints I've set. For example, I have a 4K frame (3840 x 2160) and I want to put a small logo in the bottom-right corner. In the 'Position' box, the numbers 'X' and 'Y' will be based on the pixels that the element is lined up with. This is OK, but if I want to line them up based on a specific margin, like 20 pixels from the bottom, I want to be able to see that based on the settings I have set for the element, for example the right and bottom constraints.I'm sorry if this is just because I'm new to using Figma, but I'

Hi Figma team,I’d love to suggest two features that would significantly improve the workflow for many users:1. **Native Table Tool**  It would be amazing to have a built-in table creation tool. Currently, tables require a mix of auto layout frames or third-party plugins, which is time-consuming. A native solution with support for cell editing, column/row controls, and table styles would be incredibly helpful.2. **Partial Image Transparency**  It would also be great to have a tool that allows making only a part of an image transparent—like a transparency brush or eraser tool. Right now, achieving this effect requires complex masking or external editing.Thank you for building such a powerful platform!Best regards,  Olha Shevchuk 

Hi Figma Team,I absolutely love using Figjam for brainstorming, User journey mapping and creating User flow diagrams—it’s an essential part of my design workflow. However, I often find myself switching back to Figma just to check spacing and alignment when I want to ensure everything is precise.It would be incredibly helpful to have a space checker or spacing measurement tool available in Figjam as well. This would allow designers like me to quickly verify distances between elements without leaving the Figjam. It’s a small addition that would go a long way in helping us design more confidently and keep things pixel-perfect—especially during early-stage design discussions and low-fidelity mockups.

Request:Please enable number variables like corner radius to swap properly across libraries — just like color variables do.Problem:Even when number variables (e.g., corner-radius-sm) are named and structured the same in two libraries, Figma does not swap them automatically. This breaks consistency and forces manual rework.Why it matters:Design systems rely on tokenized values (like spacing, radius, and elevation). Not being able to swap them across libraries limits scalability for multi-brand or multi-theme systems.Suggestion:Make number variables resolve across libraries by matching variable names and types — the same way color variables already work.

Letter-spacing values declared in % in Design mode should be represented in em in Dev mode, instead of px or rem. em units are relative to the font size, whereas px and rem are not.For example, a letter-spacing value of 2% should be represented in CSS as .02em. (You can’t declare letter-spacing in % units in CSS, so this is why we must use em.)Currently, when you view the code in Dev Mode, the only unit options you are given are rem or px, which are two static units, not relative units. This means you end up outputting random values like “letter-spacing: 0.1125rem;” which doesn’t scale relative to your font size on the front-end.This causes many headaches for me and my developers. Would love to see this updated! 🙏

Now I can’t distribute objects evenly when selecting them all, but I used to be able to. It was really helpful when making tables.

I noticed this link label when I attached the link to a section in my Figma Design file, and thought that it might be good to only have this link show up if the linked file does have interaction noodle links or is indicated as a prototype. This integration might need some update since the launch of Sections in Figma.  

It’s kinda ridiculous. Why not nest these panels together? It takes up my whole laptop screen, and I have a large laptop. It’s super confusing every time I want to change an option, I have to go through all these panels to get what I need. Really needs redesigning. Please fix. And please add a color option for text styles. Why do I have to make a component or variable for everything?

When I used the color picker tool in the colors menu in Figma Slides when I had a shape selected, the fill color switched instead of the border color.

The current limitation makes no sense. It's super annoying and problematic. Just allow it like how it’s possible in a Figma Design file.

Many times you have a very complex parent component (like a side nav) where it is hard to tell what component is what when they are nested instances.It would be great to be able to name sections or some identifier of what property controls go with what piece of the component. Example of large component attached (collapsed sections and expanded). You can see how it is hard to know what controls what. Thanks! 

I’ve been working on a photobook project and i really hate the app called scribus, so i want to use figma slide for a replacement. I haven’t worked with figma slide a lot but i think we could have some feature such asLinking Textbox for displaying text in two seperate coloumn  Page number on the left side for left pages, and on the right side for right pages. (autometically adjust them when adding a new page) create new slidw based on a template layout (like google slides) and be able to adjust the template slides Layout guide for margins and text area Adjustable slide sizes (i think someone already metioned it) (Maybe) have something for editing pictures brightness like how it is in design files some shotcut in the design files (K for scaling) Some way to export the slides to pdf or png or jpegI really love using design and figjam and it is really painful to use scribus,  but it has some feature

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this I’m getting the yellow warning banner about memory usage and it’s disrupting. I guess the warning is helpful though at 50% of memory used it doesn’t really seem like that’s almost out of memory. I wouldn’t mind it as much if there was a way to easily dismiss it instead of having to reload the tab every time it appears. An “x” to close would be good enough. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) — Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc. Anyone else find this disruptive? If you could dismiss it, when would you want it to reappear (e.g. never, each time you open the file, at a set usage amount, etc.)?

Hello Figma Comunity, Recently, Figma Support and I found out that the font manager Font Base is not supported by the Figma font agent and Figma itself. Font Base is a font manager you can install on your computer that lets you: Organize and manage your project fonts very easily and visually Install and uninstalling fonts quickly Testing fonts within the program without installing the fonts on your device Many other features you can check on their website. I believe it would be a great idea to implement this since a lot of designers like me like to use font managers such as Font Base to organize our projects and the fonts we use in them.

Like many of us, I’m not totally on board with UI3. And, AFAIK, the new Apps don’t really make sense in their first iteration. But it’s an other matter.I teach Figma to beginners and I’ve noticed that it gets harder for them to jump in and learn as fast as before. The interface is more cluttered. More clicks are needed some properties not directly accessible or placed elsewhere (why on earth would you separate position and size ? And Fitt’s Law is not really applied regarding size and distance of useful buttons (yes Add Variant, I’m talking about YOU!).And more regrettably, heavily wanted workflow improvements still seem in a galaxy far far away :. importing svg animation, where are you ? So hidden that i can’t see you or just not there ? . Variant renaming still a problem in the layer panel as the “Property=” is directly editable there. Most of my students repeatedly make the error of renaming directly the variant there generating errors.

Currently, when you attempt to swap libraries in Figma, you see a nice overlay window that displays which components the old library components will switch to. On occasion, if the component name has changed between library versions, Figma won’t identify the correct component to swap to and it simply says ‘No component found’ (or something similar). It would be great if you could have the instance swap fucntionality here, so that you could manually select the component in the new library to replace the old one. I believe Sketch have something similar to this when switching libraries there. This would be a huge boost for projects managing multiple versions of libraries and projects needing to swap between them.

Let users set a variable value in %. It is useful for line-height (also for border radius 😈) Add typography related items to Number scoping

Is it possible to share a project with a person, that allows to copy elements but not to export?

I want to link to a specific version in history. This will keep references in JIRA consistent. Github has this ability with code. You can link to a specific line in a specific commit. Thanks!

I love the newly implemented the ability to use bold, italic or underline without creating an additional font style, but I’d LOVE to see strikethrough included in this - please Figma! Sincerely, a designer whose clients like to use compare pricing for their ecommerce sites.
