I regularly need to work with screenshots of webpages, which can be a couple thousand pixels tall. I need these images to be actual size. Can’t do this in Figma cause it automatically scales large images down. I know there’s a plugin but this seems like a silly thing to rely on a plugin for, there should be an option native to Figma that lets us shut this function off. Or give us an option to scale the image back up to the original dimensions? (even if the quality’s going to get wrecked) This has been such a huge thorn in my side! Please & thank you!

Currently, in prototype the cursor appears to be either ‘pointer’ (for everything) or ‘hand’ (if a click interaction set up on an element). I would like to be able to change this to a text cursor, when hovering over an input field in my proto. Affordance is a very important part of UI so surprised theres no way to do this? Of course can hack it by adding an image of a cursor, but then you end up having that plus the actual cursor on screen & it makes things worse. Should be an easy feature to add and would be very much appreciated!

Hi! My team exclusively uses Figma as the source-of-truth for implementation across various verticals: product, design engineering… We heavily rely on deeplinks to cross-reference other relevant files, flows, screens or resources to make the hand-off files easier to navigate for engineers. Our problem is, after clicking a link that leads to another frame in the same file, there’s no way to go back to the previous page: People need to manually navigate the file hierarchy and sections organisation to retrace their steps. Easy when you’re the person who came up with all these flows and know the file org by heart, but hard for anyone else. 😅 A floating action similar to the “Return to instance” button we have when shortcutting to a master component would be ideal. A keyboard shortcut to do that would be good enough. Any thoughts here?

When creating hand-off documents I like to showcase user flows by using arrows between different UI elements. I have to use plugins to create these arrows at the moment. When playing with Figjam I notice it had a connector option - this is great. I would love it if we could also have this connector option inside Figma as it would be a HUGE timesaver for hand-off. I would like to think this would be a super easy update given that we can already edit connectors inside Figma. We just need a connector button in the toolbar like so:

Context (You can skip it) I’m working on a plugin that stores frames designed in Figma independently, so different, unrelated to each other, people can use and edit them in their own Figma Files. Designs selected by a user are exported. If another user needs to edit the designs, it can import them to its own Figma File and save it. If another user needs to render the designs outside Figma, it can choose them from an Admin Panel Moreover, designs should have a possibility to implement Widgets, which should be stored and restored as well. Problem Widgets can’t be created by Plugins, they can only be cloned. Which is a problem in my case because exported designs may contain Widgets, which may not be familiar to another user, thus it can’t be imported back. Proposal I understand that this is probably for security reasons, but I really want to see this feature and I think I have a nice way to make it possible. createWidgetById I propose a new method for PluginAPI, which will be able to c

From what I see, Figma is struggling with variable heights, especially the ones relative to the viewport (heights of design elements vs height of the prototype and its elements when previewing, relative to the viewport). For example, you can’t have a section on a homepage be 100% viewport height both in the design and when previewing (which is the MOST ESSENTIAL, BASIC necessity in web/app design). Suggestion to fix this:A new option for Frames, a separate set of dimensions called “Viewport dimensions” These dimensions will NOT affect frame dimensions. Instead, these dimensions will provide variable boundaries which design elements can refer to, and adjust accordingly in both design view and when previewing a prototype.For example, your main frame is 1920 x 8000 in design mode and you have a section (auto layout) which should be “full screen height”. This can be a 1-click solution, here’s how:You select the main frame and set its “Viewport Dimensions” to 1920x1080 You select the sectio

Introducing an Invisible Mode for Figma to enhance user privacy. This feature allows users to work without showing their online status, preventing others from following their activity. Perfect for focused, distraction-free design sessions.

A back button (and possibly a forward button) would be very helpful in the sidebar to navigate larger Figma files with multiple pages.

“Please add a feature that allows moving a note after it’s written. Sometimes the note falls in the middle of the design, and that’s really not good.”

It’s hard to find the “Restore this version” button once a chat goes beyond 100 messages. Figma should add pinned Next/Prev buttons in the top bar, allowing users to preview each version after a chat and then decide which one to restore.

Hello Figma team and community,I’ve been working on a project where I need to display detailed information about multiple people (or products) in a modal. The setup is simple: Each Card component has exposed properties (Name, Job, Description, Photo). On hover/click, the card should open a global Modal that shows the same information. Currently, the only way to make this work in prototypes is to use Set variable → literal values (e.g., selName = "Norman"). This means: Every instance of the card requires manually duplicating interactions with hardcoded values. If I update the Card property (e.g., change the person’s name or job), the modal still shows the old hardcoded value unless I also update the variable action. This breaks scalability. For 10, 20, or 50+ people, it becomes very time-consuming and error-prone. 💡 What I would like to request:The ability for Variables to “read” the exposed properties of a component instance and pass those values dynamically to the Modal. In oth

Your current plans do not include a standalone option for just Figma Sites. It is not necessary to buy a full seat plan just because someone wants to use Figma Sites, right? Let’s offer a variety of different plans to make it easier for customers to choose

why make this so hard? This should be in an obvious place. I read the info on the site seems to be out of date anyone know where this is? It’s supper annoying to look for billing info and writing in help chats instead of doing proper work. going rate this product way longer just because I wasting my time on things that should easily accessible.

Sometimes I want one boolean component property to both show something, and hide something else. It would be cool to be able to not only assign a boolean property to layer visibility, but also to indicate that it should show the layer if the property is false. Example scenario: Imagine a situation where I’m designing favourites section on the app’s sidebar. I want a sidebar to be a component. Now when favourites is empty, I want to show an empty state with a CTA instead of the CTA. And I want to add a toggle that both hides an empty state, and shows a list of favorite items.

Is it possible to map the HUG or FILL to a variable. It would be great to not only assign particular width values, but also set the width to either hug or fill the container.

Hi everyone,I think it would be really useful to have a built-in widget or plugin that lets you enter a gross salary, for example €1600, and automatically shows the net salary after deductions like taxes and contributions.This would be especially valuable when designing dashboards, HR tools, or finance app mockups, where realistic payroll data can help bring the design closer to real scenarios.Ideally, it could adapt by region or allow custom deduction rates so the calculation feels accurate and flexible.Do you think this could be a helpful addition to the Figma ecosystem?

Although Figma recommends Focusing on desktop and full-screen friendly outcomes, the available frame presets are only for mobile. So every time, I end up having to create custom sizes for desktop or tablet.

Is there a way to change the Background Color for the following: Figma Dev Mode - Component Playground panel Figma Dev Mode - Compare Changes panel Currently the colors of my components and the background clash, and I’m unable to properly view the components in those listed panels/views.

Hi Figma team,I often need to show the flow between screens or components in my Figma design files. Currently, I find myself copying arrows from FigJam into Figma because they’re quick, lightweight, and visually ideal for interaction mapping.One of the things I really appreciate about FigJam arrows is how they automatically adjust when elements are moved and how they bend intelligently, something most plugins or manual arrow workarounds don’t handle well. It’s a huge time-saver when exploring flows or doing quick iteration, and it keeps everything clean and readable.With the recent addition of annotation and measurement tools in Figma, I was wondering if similar arrow/connector functionality could be added natively to Figma design files. Having this built in would make it so much easier to communicate user journeys, navigation, or logic flows directly within a design file, especially during handoff or design reviews.Thanks for all the amazing updates you’ve been rolling out!

Feature to create 'flow interactions’. Meaning interactions that are only active within a specified flow. If no flow is specified, the interaction behaves as it currently does.This feature would allow to assign different actions to the same element (e.g., a button) depending on the active flow.For example:In Flow A, clicking a button navigates to Page A. In Flow B, clicking the same button navigates to Page B.Would help for: Easily compare different user journeys without duplicating frames or creating multiple prototypes Reduces clutter by eliminating the need for separate copies of the same element or screen for different flows Supports more complex, context-aware prototyping scenarios

I’m surprised that after three years, FigJam still doesn’t support vertical text alignment in shapes. This has been a longstanding request (as evidenced by this older forum thread), and it’s a must-have for creating clean and professional-looking diagrams. Being able to align text to the top, center, or bottom of a shape is a standard feature in most design and diagram tools, and its absence in FigJam makes it harder to organize content quickly and consistently. Please consider adding vertical text alignment options to improve productivity and the overall user experience in FigJam.

I just want to adjust the page settings for each page “frame” so to speak so I can make it wider. It’s not clear that this is possible.

Love that branches were added but would like to make some suggestions: Support sub-branches from branches. This is a really helpful way to signify milestones in an app design and allow for many avenues of exploration and iterations with the ability to only merge the branch (feature or milestone) which was approved. See example below of how I would ideally structure the process of a project

Hi Figma team, First, thanks for the amazing work on the design tools. I’d like to request a larger window for the color variable picker. I understand that resizing the text style picker might be difficult due to font binding and async loading. However, for the color variable picker, it seems relatively straightforward since the window can already be dragged. Is there a reason why resizing isn’t supported? Modified by tampermonkey

Similar to how we can filter colors from different libraries, We also should be able to select and filter typographies from different libraries.Colors Library Selection:
