I love the annotations feature!It would be great if I could move an annotation from one frame to another. If the note was made on the wrong screen or an earlier iteration, I’m currently just copying and pasting the text from the annotation attached to the old frame to the new annotation on a new frame. Also a keyboard shortcut to quickly tag the annotation would be handy.

Hi all! With the new update to Slides, the “timing” option is now missing from the “Slide Transition”. This was a core functionality for me as it allows me to use smart animate on various components in the slides for complex animations.For instance, if I want to move a group first to the left and then to the right, I would create separate slides with the “smart transition” and set the “timing” option to “after previous”.This would allow various transitions between slides to take place automatically without me having to click through them. For me, this is core functionality. Image below is an example of such an automated transition. In other words, could we get this feature back?

Greetings. I’m loving the Compare Changes tools in Dev Mode. In a scenario when I’m auditing working files vs official handoff files(of a given flow), the search results are numerous and difficult to parse manually; I really wish there were filtering capabilities, with categories like Text Edits, Color Changes, Spacing & Layout changes, etc. This would supercharge an already powerful tool, and allow me to drill into the specific kind of changes I’m searching for. 

Sometimes, additional context is needed on a prototype to guide the participant. If only some things are linked together, or you want the participant to imagine they are in a certain scenario, so they pick specific options. For example:I give the instruction “Imagine it is a hot sunny day...” The UI asks “What will you bring with you?” And the options are: Sunscreen Sunglasses Water bottle Umbrella Scarf Boots I’ve been doing this using a manual text object, but the drawback is that this is attached only to a single frame, and I’d need to duplicate this on subsequent frames.Alternatively, I sometimes include an instruction slide that comes before, but the user doesn’t always remember all the scenario or context.

It would be great to have a feature to show hotspots only after certain user behaviours, such as clicking on an area that is not a hotspot 5 or 6 times. This allows the user to explore and struggle a bit, so we can observe a bit and won’t have to intervene and provide explicit instructions, since the hotspots will be eventually revealed.

Hey guys, I am using digital whiteboards primarily to collaborate during design sessions. In order to create hierarchy during some of these sessions, I use secondary colors to group things together. For example: Primary sticky is yellow, secondary sticky is faded yellow My solution: For me having a faded version of each color would already solve my issue in FigJam Sidenote: Loving the tool, the emotes and stickers a great addition and I am hoping you guys will start building some smart in-app tools to create frameworks and tables like Miro, with the advantage of embedding these things in Figma. Well you get the drift, rock on 🤘

Figma's menu corner radius is too big -- 14pxWindows default menu corner radius is 8px (logical resolution)macOS is 9px (logical resolution). When @2x scaled, it actually appears as 18px in the screenshot

Please add it

It would be very useful to have the ability to embed interactive prototypes made in Figma into FigJam, the same way we can do it on websites. This would help when hosting review sessions and gather additional feedback, without having to send links all over the place.

With UI3, the font weight of the Figma UI is thinner than it used to be, which makes it less legible. This is particularly bad when reading lengthy comments in my files. As with all body text, I would expect a regular weight, at least in this context. Is there a way to change that in the future?

FigJam seeems to only have these shortcuts: But these are a defined size, what if you want to increase or decrease to the size you want? Like maybe option + Command + > Miro has this, most other apps that have text input also have this (notepad, google sheets, etc…).

Does anyone know of a way to get hanging indents within one block of plain text? So that when a line of text goes beyond the right margin, it’s indented below rather than starting on the left margin again? Kind of like what you’d find on a works cited page of a paper, or in a line of poetry that runs past the margin. And for clarity, I am not talking about lists, bulletpoints, etc. – I am referring to plain/paragraph text

Hello! I ran into a problem that I could not find in your help. There is a Status Annotation plugin, it is very well for work’s control. I make a design for a client, and he’s could control the process with this plugin. But he’s a manager, not a designer. The client usually acts as a viewer, not an editor. This is done so that he cannot spoil anything in the design. But the viewers doesn’t have access to the plugin. Plugins can only be used by editors. Could you make plugins available for viewers? It will be so usefull. Thanks

Would it be possible for the pdf format to come out like Word, i.e. that the text is legible and doesn't come out like an image. This would improve accessibility and mean that cover letters and CVs could be read by ATS recruitment software.

The Pages toolbar, wherein you select which page is active, now has way too much space between pages. It’s plausible to click near a page, and get nowhere. In other words, the gutter spacing between rows is too large.

As demonstrated in the video, I am unable to use “select matching layer” within the same frame.

 It would be really helpful if there were a way to view the creation date of a new project when it's first created in Figma. 

As I am publishing library quite often - I need to do it quickly. The current flow is slowing down my process. I need to go to all libraries (it shows Updates by default) I need to switch to This file and then hit the teeny-tiny button Publish. It is way too hidden for a such frequntly-used action. Make it accessible from main UI or add a shortcut. 

I use the Scale options a lot and 9 out of 10 times I know exactly what size in width or height I want to scale to. I also use Tabs a lot to navigate through options whenever possible.In the new UI when I click K and open the Scale options the first focus is on the 1x multiplayer and the Tab goes through the alignment box, it takes 20 tabs to go from the multiplayer 1x option to the Width input.In the old UI, I click K to open the Scale properties, press Tab once and enter my Width…I believe that most users will agree that the Width and Height inputs should come next after 1x in the tab order. (I am not even sure what that alignment box is supposed to do exactly , I have never used it.)  

Hello, I would like to propose a new feature that will reduce the work of interface design by half or more, and Figma is already almost there.Currently we have to make different size versions (desktop, tablet and mobile) so that developers can view them. With the variables mode I can edit the screen sizes just by changing the global variable, but my developers do not have this button available. It would be wonderful for everyone if this were possible.  

If you have a component with many different variants, it would be good to have a warning before someone accidentally changes the content within the component rather than in the variants. This is inspired by the warning that happened when detaching an instance when you had FigPals.

I often have to use colors outside of Figma. At the moment, if those colors are variables, I have to detach it to select and copy the hex code and re-apply the variable.I think it would be a nice feature to be able to copy the color of that element without having to detach and re-attach the variable. 

Hi everyone 👋I'm a daily Figma user and really appreciate how flexible and powerful Auto Layout has become.That said, there are still a few small but recurring pain points in my workflow that I believe many other users may also be experiencing — especially when it comes to Auto Layout default settings.Currently, certain Auto Layout options like Exclude strokes and Canvas stacking are always turned on or off by default. While this might suit some use cases, it can feel counterintuitive or inefficient in others.1. Exclude strokes — A repeated manual step that can lead to dev/design misalignmentEvery time I apply Auto Layout, I find myself manually disabling "Include strokes."In web development environments, it's common to build layouts using border for visual separation — not stroke.Because of this, including strokes in padding calculations can often result in misaligned spacing between design and front-end implementation.If designers could set "Exclude strokes" as a default, it would h

This suggestion is the result of a random gripe in Figjam, but i don’t always like using stickies in figjam as they are big and bulky and have limited style options. i love the AI sorting features for things like card sorting, but this is only possible with stickies.I’d much prefer to use the rectangles and other shapes to group things like fields in a complex profile. they’re smaller and less annoying to resize and rearrange. this makes it easier to export snapshots to send to stakeholders, as let’s be real - many normal business folks just don’t understand how to navigate horizontal scrolling or infinite canvases. the sorting works great, just don’t force sticky notes. or give us more freedom to style and resize stickies. The rectangles on the left are smaller and easier to style than the stickies.  

It will be good to have a feature to notify a content designer who intends to change a copy in an instance that it will be better if he/she makes the change directly in the component. It will be also good if this notification can take them to the component directly where they will need to make the copy change. This notification will prevent a lot of overrides that happens if multiple people work in the same file and have different skill sets, or are not aware of where the components are “buried” :)
