The new text size for controls is really small, is there a way to bump it up a little?
Hi, wonder if anybody else noticed this, but it’s a small change in the new UI that really slowed down my workflow. In the old UI, when you hit the (K) shortcut for the scale tool and then hit (Tab), the focus would switch to the width setting in the scale tool. This helped me scale things much quicker if I knew the width that I wanted. In the new UI, hitting the (Tab) after (K) switches the focus to the scale direction tool due to the new layout. I don’t find that much use for the scale direction tool and I feel like the previous layout felt quicker and more useful. Wondering if anybody else used the scale tool in this way or is my case a bit to specific?
Sometimes, I accidentally apply CAPS LOCK to each word in a sentence instead of setting the capitalization at the style, variable, or component level. Later, I realize I want the text to be in sentence case, but simply switching it to sentence case doesn’t override the manually applied CAPS. I wish there was a way to force it to change to sentence case regardless.
To the Figma development team, I’m thrilled with the multi-edit feature for its quick editing capability. However, it’s currently limited to design variants. Could it also support broader edits, such as auto layout adjustments across multiple pages or screens? The Select Matching Layers feature doesn’t always perform as effectively as multi-edit in these cases.
Hey there, mates! Wouldn’t it be awesome if pressing the up arrow while on the first item in a list automatically selected the last item, and vice versa? 🔄 This wrap-around selection feature could make navigation in Figma faster and more intuitive for power users and keyboard lovers! What do you think? 💡🎉  as element boxes below the rows of slides? Being able to see the BIG PICTURE all at once is what tools like FigJam is all about, right? So being able to see the “Whole Story” without having to click through slides one by one, would be a great addition in my opinion. Or perhaps it would be ok if presenter notes was available any time a slide was selected perhaps and we weren’t forced to jump back and forth into single slide view… Thanks!
I can’t just paste in (or use an expansion shortcut) for the same group of people to mention them in comments: @person1 @person2 if text expanded isn’t properly tokenized. I have to individually type them out. It’s painfully slow. Look at the way Invision does this in comments - it works great.
Hi. I have set up all my color variables in my design system “App_Usage_Collection.” But my devs use storybook and they call the colors by their primitive names, so I set up another collection of color variables called _Storybook. I alias the Storybook Primitives in the App_Color_Usage collection. BUT in dev mode I only see the app_color_usage collection variable name, not the alias. Can we also please see the alias listed? Thanks! 🙏
The comments icon on the top left with the red icon was very visible. Moving it to the bottom center, I end up missing it a often. Of the 10 different ways to get notified on Figma comments the red dot in the app the is only one I rely on.
When you open the variables panel, you get columns to enter labels and values. It seems that there is no way to make a column larger, in case you have long variable names… Would this be possible in a future version?? (Actually the same is true for the properties panel, also no way to make this bigger)
Thank you for back checkbox. But we need little updade. All active status controls have blue color. Why “clip content” checkbox just white+gray? I don’t want to slow down for low contrast. You have blue checkbox component in “Export” menu. Just fix it.
When you have a selected a collection that is not the first and attempt to select the first collection sometimes it is not possible to select it. You get a double arrow mouse cursor and need to select the first collection with keyboard. Possibly a UI3 bug, unknown.
Currently, it seems that we can only assign a single background color to a frame. It would be incredibly helpful if we could apply multiple background colors or gradients within a single frame. This feature could enhance our design capabilities, allowing for more dynamic and visually appealing layouts.
I should be able to see what new changes have been made in the file and who made those updates.
Found that the new UI is not highligting an error if an incorrect font weight is selected. Which then might not allow you to apply such text styles to text layers and not understand what causing it.
Problem Statement: Currently, when designing floating chat components or similar UI elements in Figma, setting a sticky position to keep components visible while scrolling is limited to static top-of-page behavior. The lack of bottom-right or bottom-left sticky positioning complicates the responsive design process, requiring manual adjustments for different screen sizes. Proposed Solution: Introduce an Advanced Sticky Positioning feature in Figma’s Scroll Behavior settings. This feature would allow designers to specify sticky positioning for elements in relation to top, bottom, left, right, and their combinations. This functionality would enhance responsiveness and reduce manual effort. Key Features Sticky Position Options: Top (existing behavior) Bottom Left Right Corners (e.g., bottom-right, bottom-left, top-right, top-left). Responsive Adjustments: Allow sticky position settings to dynamically adapt based on frame constraints and screen sizes, making designs more fluid across d

It would be nice if we can toggle a boolean variable easily instead of having to use conditional. Example solutions: Set variable [variable_name] to [!variable_name] Set variable [boolean_variable] to [true, false, toggle]
Background: A useful control feature in Figma Enterprise is the ability to restrict access to plugins with Admin approval. Setting up Admin approval allows organizations to vet plugins for security compliance, and also to manage costs for plug-ins that are paid, not free. A typical arrangement is that an enterprise will require Admin approval for plugins, and allow users to request approval with a justification. Users who try to activate a new plug-in will then see this popup. Once the request is filled out, it goes to Admins’ plugin approval queue in Figma. However, most large organizations use other tools outside of Figma to manage these types of software access requests (in a tool like SharePoint or ServiceNow), as there may be multiple departments involved in vetting and approving a plugin. This causes double work for Figma admins, because they have to email back the requester telling them to also place a request and justification in the corporate approval tool. Possible solution
Since the release of the new Figma and the “removal” of the property tab its really difficult to find where you set each property, it took me 20 minof a lot of googling and tutorial watching to find the new placement. What makes it even more difficult is that the property button for e.g. a text input is an invisible button that only shows when you are hovering. Is it possible to always show that button, so that the enduser doesn’t have to remember where on the screen each hidden button is? Today it functions like this: Couldn’t the standard state show the button?
Hi Figma Team, I’ve been having trouble since the height and width (including Fix, Hug, Fill) parameters were moved to the bottom of the component section. Before, I could easily move in and out of nested components and quickly access the height & width parameters because they were always in the same place. This allowed me to adjust all nested component measurements quickly. However, with the new arrangement, I can’t quickly access these parameters without the component section pushing them out of sight, which means I have to scroll to find them every time I move in and out of nested components. Maybe we could make the height & width parameters stay at the top for consistent accessibility. Thanks and keep up the good work! (:
When adding a new row or column to a table, it doesn’t keep the formatting of the rest of the table (text style, border color etc…). It’s tedious having to set it every time you add a row or column.
Hi, I have an idea to share as I like working on Figma by hiding the UI controls, But it becomes problem when I have to press command + . to show the UI controls. Now the idea is what if I take my cursor on left/right corner edge of the window and hold to make the UI controls automatically. that should ease the usability and reduce the stress of entering the shortcut. Thoughts? Thanks, Varun Sahdev
I think it shouldn’t be case sensitive when we want to set our grid layout count to “auto”. I need to type “Auto”, instead of “auto, AUTO, aUTO”.
