I lead a team of designers and when i log into our project I want to sort by most recently edited; i want to see all the stuff thats been/being worked on since the last time i looked. This must be a common use case. What am I missing?

I have a site where I’m using Grid mode for 4 columns.On Tablet I want that to grid to change to 2 columns, and 1 column for mobile.Right now it seems you can only increase the number of columns on other breakpoints, not decrease it. That’s a major feature that makes grids useful.Any TBD on when it might get solved?

Totally lost. I pasted an image. Here is my list of try and error after then:The image was far too large and I wanted to resize it by using a handle on the top left corner (the only corner I could see). It moved around instead. I looked in the menu to the right of the screen to find some formatting options. Therein was a symbol showing the figure next to a “100%” without any explanation. So I expected this to be the size of the image and typed 25, to then see it become transparent and almost invisible. Ctrl-Z. Then next, I did Ctrl-F to search for “size” and found nothing. But now, the buttons on the right are missing.I am afraid I have to tell you that Figma desperately needs some kind of introductury tutorial...

Please check the video.https://share.cleanshot.com/F4WbvN1jEvery time I use “rewrite” I have to press “open actions” shortcut 3 times to make it actually open again. Looks like a bug in UX but probably just the code.On a broader term, why push ai features and make them this interruptive?

It would be really handy to be able to set your own defoult settings for adding new section. I always use specific background color and corner radius and I need to change that each time I am creating new section it is really abundant work...

Is there a way to export some frames as one pdf? When I click export > PDF, it exports all frames as individual PDFs which is not what I want.  I have lots of frames in this file. Say 1000s. I need to export 17 as a PDF. 

Just like how GitHub has the “Forking” feature where, we make our own personal copy of a public file so to edit it freely, without effecting the original. This way alot of other people can contribute to the file and help in improving it, adding new features or fixing problemsIt would be great to have such “Remix” ability to the community files so a bunch of people together can contribute in keeping files up-to-date. For examples, community files for Shadcn UI are outdated, they have not been updated for 2 years due to sheer amount of work. With remix, anybody can help in updating these files without the need of a primary dependency.Thanks.

The function GRID doesn’t work as function WRAP.It is absurd that if do I delete an element into the autolayout, in grid it remains a empty space.In Wrap Mode it didn’t happen, elements naturally stacked due to the rules of padding set in autolayout.With GRID mode there is NO CONSISTENCY in padding. NOW, the GRID rules. So if do I set a vertical padding 10px, BUT the grid does not “afford” that padding, IT’S THE GRID THAT WIN, padding change, but I don’t have any information about this changement (just zooming in and checking manually).Moreover, with Wrap Mode, if did I resize the frame of the autolayout - with all the elements inside in Fill container - especially after the introduction of the precious Ratio function) - the elements would had resized. Now, not!Elements go off the grid.Changing a grid already existing is IMPOSSIBLE through the new GUI.It is impossible to ALIGN things in the grid.Joseph Muller Brockmann would be very unhappy :(  Everything doesn’t work.This new tool has

Please update the feature for printing purpose. Because If I want to print magazines , brouchers at all and   and multiple pages option also. I go for adobe only. Please include this feature to coming up more users into figma .I hope you update this feature as soon as possible. 

新版UI界面功能太难用了，能不能弄回旧版本，网格布局那些全部没了，用起来好别扭

Hi Figma team,I’d love to suggest a feature that could bring mobile prototyping to a whole new level: support for haptic feedback in prototypes tested on mobile devices (especially via the Figma mobile app).Today, Figma already allows us to prototype with beautiful transitions and rich interactions. But being able to trigger haptic feedback (via the Taptic Engine on iOS, or vibration on Android) during key interactions (tap, success, error, screen transition, etc.) would let us:Simulate real product experiences more accurately Design more emotionally engaging and trustworthy interactions Test and iterate on sensory feedback during user testing Elevate the quality of motion & micro-interaction design directly within FigmaIt would be amazing to have:Native support for defining haptic patterns (e.g. soft tap, success pulse, warning alert) per interaction Compatibility with existing mobile preview features Potential integration with Core Haptics or custom presetsLetting designers proto

Current behaviour (in Org): 1- after sharing a link to anything in a file (page, frame, section, etc) the url uses those names 2- if the name of any of those names included in the url changes, then the url, which has been included in documentation and dev tickets, breaks. Expected behaviour: use unique identifiers instead, so the url already shared do not break due to file renaming due, file clean up, etc Anecdote: 1- an entire set of sprint tickets (50+) had to be painfully relinked due to file name, frame and section renaming that happened after the PM grabbed the urls. 2- after a feature has grown (or low memory warning), and there’s a need to split the file into multiple files in another project folder, the frames are cut and pasted into another file. Once again, simple file management breaks urls already shared and an entire project needs to be relinked.

I often find myself trying to use the font weight shortcuts to change the weight of a line. Would be a helpful shortcut when you have a line selected. Possibly also when you have an object selected, it could edit the stroke width on that object. cmd - alt - < cmd - alt - >

What about having a feature where one user can share his/her selections to other team member who's working in the same file? 

Doing UI/UX for 23 years, since 2000. Hi everybody. The major issue of editing components right now, is the fact that ussually you have to go to the isolated component library and edit it there. And while you are doing that, you are completely disconnected from the rest of the design. I would like to see the future, for editing instance of component on the spot, and immediately see the result. After edit is done, there should be the “Publish changes…” button. Universe bless the Figma.

Hi I am trying to implement SFX into my prototype however it has been quite the struggle since the only way for me to do it by adding a video with that audio I want, and half of the time the audio plays out very „buggy“ in the prototype view. Will there be a feature to allow such implications in the future? It will make presentations to clients or project groups way easier and more fun. Otherwise I have good unity knowledge where I can try and implement such ideas, but I rather stick to Figma when its just about prototyping and UI design, otherwise I can just fully build that whole prototype in Unity, but it will take longer :/

This would mitigate all of the users who are making single layer Auto-layouts specifically so they can do this.

I was curious why our product, fresh out of dev and into QA, lacked accuracy for a number of interactions, transitions, etc. It was only after walking in devs’ shoes for a minute that I realised they cannot actually see any detail if any of the interaction uses variables. This is extent of what they see: But they should be seeing these values: Instead, my design team now has to manually document all interactions to ensure they are accurately reproduced. …or are we all just doing it wrong?

Hi, I discovered dev mode today to add comments to design (without big bubbles). I see that we can add links to dev mode of Confluence but I’m surprised that the links are not auto linked because I add them in Confluence. Ex: I add link of a frame in Confluence, so the link of Confluence page(s) is/are auto add to Figma dev mode. To go further, it will be great if the right panel could display the confluence page (don’t need to open a browser to open it). Thanks for your time

We have 3 menus, why? We can combine file and Figma’s dropdown menu or at least remove some unnecessary items from it. Also what is the 3rd one? We can merge that with the main Figma dropdown menu.

It would be more convenient if objects resized with a fixed aspect ratio automatically rounded their dimensions to the nearest whole pixel. At the moment, one of the dimensions—either width or height—often ends up with fractional values like 40.63px, which can cause visual inconsistencies and alignment issues. Ensuring both dimensions snap to whole pixels would enhance precision and improve the overall editing experience.

The recent Aspect Ratio update has brought with it a frustrating change to the way objects snap to the pixel grid.Previously, when changing the size/position of an object by dragging, it would snap to the nearest pixel. If you needed to get more specific - and have an object at 1.5px width for example - you could change this via the properties panel without having that object snap to the nearest pixel in terms of positioning/size.This felt like a really nice balance between snapping to the nearest pixel with the cursor, whilst retaining control over incremental choices via the properties panel.Now, after the most recent update, we no longer have this control - when you change the size of an object in the properties panel it snaps to the nearest pixel.For example, if I have a rectangle which is 6.5px wide and 1.5px tall, and I use the properties panel to change it's height to 2.5px, it'll automatically change the width to 6px. The same goes for positioning.Of course I can go into the pr

Hello, Lastly I faced a problem with the wrap mode. I need to be able to fix a max number of items per line before wrapping to the next line (with a min/max width per item of course). It’s for the sake of simplicity because I don’t want to remove wrap mode just for that. Should be clear enought, if you have any further question ? 🙂 Cheers, Xavier.

As a large organization who auto approve any member wanting a Figjam edit seat, we would like an organization specific link we can share internally that allows new users who sign up to be onboarded into our organization by default - with added protection of whitelisted domains and enforced SSO we already use.It's not always appropriate to have to invite a user into a file for them to get started, and we don’t want the additional admin burden of inviting new users manually.

I would love a way to make designs more responsive, especially when showing the final designs in the prototype mode, by being able to set widths of certain components based on number of columns if using a preset grid layout, or even percentage of the frame the component is in. Auto-layout is great and almost there in helping designs become more responsive in prototype view, but it can be enhanced even more by being able to set certain widths or rules based on screen size. For example, I am creating a dashboard layout, and certain cards on the dashboard are 25% width, or 3 columns of a 12 column grid layout, and then will resize to 50% width when the screen size goes to a tablet screen size. This would help in communicating how components and designs reflow based on screen sizes.
