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 major things that were supposed to be together but

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 ideal. Banco de imágenes: Estaría genial poder vincular una librerí

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

When I select text layer and press CTRL+C to copy it’s content to WYSIWIG editor (I use Wordpress and Elementor builder) I’ve got this https://i.imgur.com/UiRFdrh.png and I copied the simple text layer with content “About” figma: https://i.imgur.com/RwSHuPQ.png result: https://i.imgur.com/yO2UdH1.jpg Yes, I can copy text with this button https://i.imgur.com/W0UGvXT.png and all works fine, but this is not very handy to switch between tabs with a mouse while your are codding. In my opinion this CTRL+C should work exectly like button above. Or maybe is there a way to add some hotkey (like CTRL+SHIFT+C) to copy only text content of the layer?

As a backend developer, I would like to be able to add details for how various parts of the design can be implemented as backend interactions (API endpoints, parameters, specifics). Currently, I am limited to add an URL in “Dev resources”, but I would like to be able to add information other than an URL.There also doesn’t seem to be a way to easily see which parts of the design have dev resources attached and which don’t.All in all, I haven’t found a way to use this feature in a useful way so far, and have been using discussions instead.

It would be nice if I could use the arrow keys to pan the view. They don’t seem to do anything right now (at least in read only mode). This would allow to alt-tab from code to Figma and scroll around to consult the design without having to use the mouse.

Hi there! First of all - thank you so so much for the amazing new features and products that you guys released this config, it’s so awesome to try out the new stuff!! 🎉👏🏻😍 I just tried the radial repeat of Figma Draw (and let me tell you, this is something I have needed so many times and only plugins could help out here before, so huge thank you for bringing this out!). I wanted to do a sun with repeating rays, but every second ray should be shorter in length. Maybe it’s on me, but I wasn’t able to figure out a way to do this easily. So here’s the 2 things I wanted to raise:First of all, the repeat group is not creating the repeated elements as new objects in the layers panel. There is only one item inside (which seems to be the master of the repeat). Selecting and changing individual paths is not possible like that, which make the process of altering your repeated elements afterwards very hard (of course, you could just flatten everything, but then you’re losing the benefits of th

Currently grids makes you tab twice when you are manually editing the sizes, maybe make pressing tab just jump to the next row or column size field

I would like to suggest a feature enhancement: allowing users to set a default zoom level for prototypes, such as “Fit Width.” Currently, prototypes open at “Actual Size,” which often requires immediate adjustment for optimal viewing. Enabling a customizable default zoom setting would improve the presentation and accessibility of prototypes, ensuring viewers have the best possible experience from the start. This adjustment would be a valuable addition to Figma’s powerful suite of tools. Thank you for considering this suggestion.

While I appreciate the great work with giving us Figma Draw, it seems like a big miss to not allow us to draw on our iPads (or some other tablet) and have it show up in Figma. Adobe added that years ago.PLEASE give us that ability. Drawing with a trackpad is not ideal.

Can you please release Figma Player mobile app or allow user testers to view mobile prototypes on their devices without the need to create a Figma account? It’s so painful to watch recordings of user testing sessions where 1/4 of the screen is occupied by the web browser UI. So the basic idea is as follows: User tester has got Figma app installed on their mobile / they have no account / they’re not logged in They tap prototype link Prototype opens in Figma app straight away 🪄
