Hello ! Everything is in the title 🙂 I really do think that Figma should work on a functionality that would allow designer to insert icons/images/etc into text content while keeping the responsive aspect of our design. Waiting for that update so bad, but if anyone has a hack to do it, I am aware! I already tried using auto layout but I had to split my text and it is painful when I want to make changes… Most of Adobe softs know how to do it. Ask them to share their knowledge, haha! Please Figma, read me. Hear me. Do it. ^^ Thanks!

As a user in an organization i find myself using the side panel to “bookmark” documents and project quite a lot. while the feature to bookmark pages is awesome, it does get very cluttered an i wondered if there would be a “home page” or “landing page” for each user, how would it look like. i played with the idea a little and here is a mockup as i see the solution for it. The current situation: The current side panel allows only a certain amount of bookmarks to be seen before going into scroll mode. It is very messy and does not help with getting around Figma and making it more personalized. as a platform that i spend 6-8 hours almost everyday, this kind of life-quality improvement seems very much in place. The proposed version: Adding a new “homepage” that will act as a landing page. instead of the current “recents” page which doesn’t always reflects the real need. The features in this homepage will be: Recents feed at the top with ability to view all All bookmarked pages and projec

Currently, selecting text and using the hotkey shortcut in MacOS does not function, as instead of dictating the text that was selected, you only hear it say “see”. Please have FigJam support the MacOS accessibility tools, specifically text to speech. Thanks!

Would love to have more status available (other than ready to dev). Design is a process, and we constantly need to work around what Figma offers to provide a clear, simple way to show work statuses. I would suggest adding Work in Progress, Ready for Review and then Ready to Dev as indications. They are optional, designers can choose to use them or not, but would be very helpful for stakeholder validation etc

There should be a feature to edit multiple text styles together. For example, I want to disable “Ligatures” in 10 different text styles with different attributes but when I select them all there is no setting option. So, I have to disable them one by one. Sometimes there are more than 25 text styles in the same file and going to settings individually is so time-consuming. I request Figma to create a feature to select multiple text styles and their change settings together.

Figma can create excellent interactive prototypes and smart animations, but why doesn’t it support exporting them into GIF or video formats?

“Rotate gradient” in local styles is not work

The chat function in Figma can be frustrating to use for a couple of reasons, the most glaring are: If I start typing in a chat bubble and need to go look at something in the file before I finish posting, there’s not way to exit out without hitting “send”. Suggested improvement allow a “draft” to save typed text, close the bubble, and reopen it When I hit “enter” to make a new paragraph, the message sends instead. Suggested improvement hitting “enter” breaks to a new line, hitting “tab-enter” will send message (or clicking “send” button) Thanks for reading!

I would like to “protect” or “lock” specific pages within a file from receiving library updates - similarly to how I can hide components from being published, but applied on the receiving end. This would allow me to update all of the components in my file much quicker if only one or two pages were “protected”, rather than needing to go through each page individually and apply the updates. The types of protected pages would likely be from a demo or a prototype version that captures the evolution of the product’s design phase.

I’ve been designing a new product in a single file, which has recently started using an excessive amount of memory. I want to split each page into its own new file and then split each section into its own page within the file. But I’ve used the Dev resource link to keep the sections connected to the backlog items in DevOps. When I copy and paste the sections from the old file into the new file, the Dev resource links are lost. Is there any way to copy sections to a new file and preserve the original Dev resource link? If not, I think there should be.

Quand on double-clique sur un bloc de texte il s’ajuste en bas mais je trouve ça dommage qu’il ne se centre pas automatiquement sur le texte à l’intérieur

Miro has some story map functionality that would be super helpful to have on FigJam Convert sticky notes into story map rectangles Quick add story per column Auto format rows below as you add to a column Horizontal lines to signify releases Miro Story Map Template

Request: I’d love to see a feature that allows us to: Restrict library access for specific collaborators (e.g., freelancers) while still letting them edit files. Allow editing permissions on a file without giving full library access. (Optional) Watermark or block asset copying from libraries or shared files.

To make reusable components with variables, it is better to have Boolean variable inside a component. Kindly add that function in upcoming release

Is there a way to see more details when getting updates when there are changes? having only a preview and/or comparison does not help at all. It would be cool to see what exactly (style, element etc.) has been changed.

There is lot of market out there which provides illustrations or assets in the form of EPS. (for example, freepik assets). Prototyping tools like sketch already supporting the EPS file and it’s easy to use them inside it. But Figma lacks the support of it and I think we should have that in the near future. Do you guys know any workaround to import the eps into figma ? I am preferring a free approach because illustrator and sketch are paid tools.

Figjamのカラーはかわいすぎるので、私のビジネスには向いていないです。いつもひとつひとつ手作業で変更したり、Figmaにコピーして変更していますがとても煩雑です。 proプランでもカラーの設定を任意に変えられるようお願いしたいです。

Seems when there is a lot of content, the left nav of endless scrolling of slides and sections is extremely difficult to navigate. I regularly notice designers would use Figma to organize slides (before Figma offered “slides” functionality) in a grid, with section slides to the left. This makes it extremely easy to jump around to sections of content in slide decks. Seems like being able to flip to this sort of “overview” view would be extremely beneficial in the Figma slides editor.

I just had to search the longest time for the boolean property. I actually ended up switching back to the old UI to create the property and upon more research and talking to team members, I found where the boolean properties are hidden. First, there is no tool tip when hovering over the highlighted item, so no explanation on what this button does, even though every other item in the appearance section has a tool tip. Upon pressing the unlabeled button, I get a list of variables. The + in this view, I would assume creates a new variable, since I am in a variable window. Finally, I found that clicking that + button actually creates a boolean property?? I have no idea why this is paired with creating a variable. Why is the boolean property not clearly surfaces like variants, text, or instance properties are? I suggest surfacing this property, like it originally did on the old UI to create a faster and more intuitive work flow.

i allready see aout 2 flaws in this system, the first one is that it is not designed for that purpose, the second one that it needs a file format. (please excuse the bad gramar and sentence building aswell as the typos my hands are cold and i am tired sorry) now i need this version because i am not able to afford a plan for private reasons, that is out of discussion. and what i want to do with it is screw around with it when i am bored and sometimes actually design stuff with it and for both purposes it is a great tool. i just found out about this flow thing system because i tried to ignore the prototype button because i was sure it was some text coding tool. turns out it wasnt. i found out about it (this is important) about splines states and stuff, but it is an 3d tool and a school compunter reduces itself to atoms trying to run one. so what it thought is maybee Figma got some addon or something with that i could make animations or even better entire apps. and then i found out i coul

To make it easier to use the text case feature, it is recommended to add this feature(which is available in the text menu) to the right-click menu of text

I’m using this function hundreds times a day, and need it. Why not?

Scenario: I normally keep all my components on a separate page and I like to NOT organize them into frames but use a plugin to group and sort them by name. Problem: However, when designing for a dark UI it’s very frustrating to use the assets panel as most components are close to invisible. Often a component itself has no background color so the bright foreground elements are displayed on a light grey rectalngle in the assets panel. Solution: Instead of this light grey background, the assets panel should use the background color of the page a master component is located. When designing for a dark UI it’s not uncommon to also set the background color to a darker grey to make it easier on the eye. So this solution would also work if you do not keep your components in one single page but across the entire document. And if one likes to organize them in frames, then the frame’s color could still kick in.

It would be so useful to have a zoom to: width of the frame/page. It’s one of the most used views for “scroll design”. And also, when zooming in to fine tune a detail, you want to zoom back to the previous one, alternating between them with the same shortcut - what about ALT-Z? instead of zoom out with click - less used.

Hi Figma team, I’d like to request a feature that allows us to reorder properties in components. Currently, properties such as Boolean, Variant, and Text are displayed in the order they are created, and there is no way to rearrange them. This can make managing complex components with multiple properties difficult, especially when new properties need to be added later on. Here’s why I think this feature would be helpful: Improved Organization: Allowing reordering would help designers group related properties together, making components easier to understand and use. Flexibility: When designs evolve, we often need to introduce new properties. The ability to reorder them would let us keep our components tidy without deleting and recreating existing properties. Efficiency: It saves time by reducing the need for workarounds, such as renaming properties or re-creating them in the desired order. I believe this feature would benefit many designers working on scalable design systems. Thank you
