As I was looking for a way to do this natively in Figma, I came across this concept article on Medium. In the article, Андрей Насонов (Andrey Nasonov) describes adding the option to choose alignment in the image settings beyond the default centered. This would be a simple but huge improvement to image settings, especially for responsive design. Here’s his example of how that might look on the Properties Panel for images:

Hi everyone! Why “accesibility settings” are not available for Figma Slides too? It would be very useful, also to download accessible pdf. Please add it soon. Thank you 🙂

Hi Figma. First of all, thank you so much for introducing nested instances feature! It’s a very good feature for a team that handle design systems. It gives our consumer a clear clarification what they can do with components without the need to dig deep into the layers of the component. There’s one thing I think it can help this feature to be a lil bit clearer on the right panel. It would be best if Figma can add a separator between each of the parent group and have an indentation for the children nested instances. With this, it’s much easier to identify the grouping, especially on complicated components with many nested instances. Please refer to the image attached.

Can anyone figure out how to reorder the list of variable collection in the fill dropdown? The layer ‘mode’ assignment appears to sort correctly alphabetically, but the pick list under the fill menu does not, which is a huge painpoint, and will definitely lead to my designers picking the first color they see instead of the semantic one. Correctly sorted - numerical Incorrectly sorted - 2. is at the top instead of 1.

Managing local variables is pretty cumbersome and buried in menus. Bringing over the variable window found in Figma, would be big help in managing local variables.

Is there a way to turn off the AI chrome when sharing the prototype in "Make"? When sharing in the prototype view, I was expecting it to just share the screens but when I shared the link, it showed the make file with the AI chrome. Is this a big? Or will this be an enhancement?

Currently there is no way to download or export videos out of Slides - only workaround is to copy the slide into Design, switch to dev mode, then download it.This is obviously a time churn, and leaves those on a Collab seat unable to export these. Request to add the ability to export videos (and automatically export them when outputting to pptx) from Figma Slides.

Firebender is a coding agent, that many android engineers use. Currently the Remote Figma MCP does not work whenever I configure it. Is there any way to get this to work? I tried:https://docs.firebender.com/context/mcp{"mcpServers": { "figma": { "url": "https://mcp.figma.com/mcp", "type": "http" }}} and I get a message saying to reach out to Figma support to allow Firebender MCP client use OAuth scopes with the Figma remote MCP

Frequently, when facilitating a workshop in FigJam, it is necessary to gather open and honest feedback from attendees, such as during a retrospective/health check. In other tools, such as Miro, it is possible for people to provide opinions and vote on topics anonymously. Anonymity really helps to get people to express themselves and thus get the most constructive engagement. Having moved from Miro to FigJam the lack of this feature has proven really problematic and decreases the value we can get from the tool. There are some plug-ins that provide a limited version of this, however they require manually selecting each instance of the plug-in and selecting to reveal results, which is really inefficient and often for my purposes, unworkable as a solution.

Without better tab/file management I will use Figma less. I have 40ish tabs open. Some are Figmas I just need to refer to often, some are Figma/FigJam projects I am working on, some are presentations I have been asked to look at, some are my presentations, and some are FigJams for meetings that happen frequently.  If you want Figma to be a central repository for all of this the file/tab handling will have to get better or I will work in other tools where I can find the information I need.Small fixes:Hovering over tabs needs to show the current view...not some Front page that I do not recognize.  Current tab needs to be easier to find. Vertical tab bar so I can read the names. Right now I can see 1-3 character of each tab’s name. Ctrl+/ needs to teach open and closed files. An open tabs view with preview of the last view I had. 

How can I view Figma prototypes on my mobile, or is that currently only for web desktop?When I copy the share link and open in on my mobile, it opens up in a very small view and completely unusable on phone.

If I use a link that is a click, should be green, if it is a hover, could have another color blue, if it is while pressing, purple, and then so on, drag could be red or orange, for example. And they could show in the line a icon related to the trigger it is using.Swap overlay should show a different icon and line color too.Would make it easier to identify when we mistakenly created a drag instead of a click.

No brainer. I’ve either had to ask clients to record a loom of themselves going through a Make prototype or me having to screenshot EVERY SINGLE PAGE of the prototype then send them PDFs so they could comment on it.If there’s a new QOL feature that’s gonna be added to Figma Make, it should be commenting.

We have moved from Pitch to Figslides for our presentation tool. We are finding several issues with Figslides that pitch had nailed, but one of the biggest frustrations I’m hearing from the team is sharing presentations with clients. In Pitch, from one button you could create a link to share with any external party. If you wanted it password protected it would also create the password and copy both link and password as text to share via email.In figslides, you have to go in to presentation mode > share presentation > Copy audience link > Who can access (changed to anyone) > click on password required > click generate password and then paste the link in to a text box or email before going back in to copy the password and paste that to. What should be a simple 1 or 2 step process is 10! Please make this a more simple process and copy both link and password to the copy board at the same time.

We need to apply variables according to property in more styles, much like how we can assign conditional visibility to toggles on and off. If I’m creating a button component, I want to assign text sizes, padding and colors according to properties of size and type. Currently we’re making different instances for every size and type to link them to each property which results in multiplications for each new property.It will probably work using some conditional logic, when the property is this, assign that, and so on ..

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.

As I am using Blender for VFX and 3D modeling, I find some interesting UX there. Like when panning the 3D world: if the cursor reaches the edge of the viewport, it is put on the other end so I can keep on panning. Is something like this a nice idea for the infinite canvas? You pan, and can keep on panning without reaching the limit of your screen. Similarly, when scrubbing values in an input field, in After Effects the cursor is hidden. Maybe hiding is not the best UX, but the idea is that you can keep on scrubbing infinitely without reaching the same limit of your screen.Anyway, I was wondering: could this be a nice UX addition for Figma Design? And other Figma products, perhaps?

I would like to be able to use colour styles just like fills / strokes. Meaning that I would like to be able to apply mutliple of them and or combine them with other fills. Current implementation: Currently using a colour style for either the fill or the stroke completely disables adding new fill or stroke colours Why I would need the feature: Using them in combination with other colour styles and or regular fills / stroke colours would allow me to do things like define shades over an image fill that I could reuse and update easily, or define a highlight shade that I can apply for different states (like mouse over). Currently, if I wanted to do that I would need to create multiple layers and give each of them their own colour styles. This is very much possible but complicates groups that have auto-layout or leads to text layers being below other layers and as such are not easily changeable without going through the layer pa

When sharing, I would love to be able to specify a specific slide to link to. This will allow more fine tune sharing. If the url was appended with something like “slide-1” it would allow for us to create dynamic and easily editable links in our Airtable as well. We are using slides as a creative review workflow and this would help us tremendously!

Hi everyone,While working on a design system today, I had an idea that I think could be a valuable addition to Figma—especially when it comes to building out basic UI components.It would be incredibly helpful if, after creating just a single base component (like a primary button), we could use AI to automatically generate the full set of common variants based on that one example. For instance: States like hover, focus, and disabled Versions with or without leading/trailing icons Alternate styles like secondary or ghost buttons Of course, this might be harder to apply to more complex components, but for foundational elements like buttons, input fields, tags, or chips, it feels like it could save a lot of repetitive work.I’m sure there’s more to consider technically, but I wanted to put the idea out there—maybe it’s something worth exploring as a potential feature.Thanks for reading, and I’

I want to create a PDF export of my Figma files. But I need a solution to also include my annotations from Figma. Is that something Figma can support in near future?

As far as I can tell it’s not currently possible to add strokes between rows and columns in grid, which would be very helpful for data tables. If I had strokes to the content in the cells it either looks like this if the cells are set to hug content: And if I set the cells to fill the strokes align nicely, but the text is cut off:The best “hack” I’ve found so far is to add a row with a column span going the full width of the grid and insert a 1px line with a width set to fill. It works as a proper table in terms of responsiveness, but the downside is that you have these dummy rows, which can be a little annoying when reordering content. It would be a lot easier if I could jus

Hey, I onboard a lot of guests in my Figma organization and it would ease my admin life if I could change the Share settings to “Sanofi + Guest”. Thanks

when i try to export library to figma make, there is error tip: “We ran into an error while extracting your library” and I try to export only one very simple component it doesn't work.
