Id love to able to have some shortcuts for things like fill, its so distracting to have to go to the side panel all the time, it would save time to have something under right click or a modifier click which has some under mouse cursor object selection controls, or a menu of controls which are customisable which appear next to the mouse cursor, blender does this really well

Right now when I move the main components between files I lose all connection to the instance. The only solution to this right now is to relink all manually or use a plugin (Master by Gleb). We need solutions to do it without losing all connections.

It’d be nice if we could copy multiple styles simultaneously, such as fill, stroke, and effects, from one element to another, overriding the applied style of the destination element. Currently, we are only allowed to copy styles individually, which takes up a lot of time and effort, and doesn’t allow for overrides.

Hi, Because of short Commings in FIGMA, we would like to use annotations or grid styles, to show advance layout alignments being applied to containers visually. We don’t want to see Grid Styles displaying over all our nice components making things look horrible. So we like to flip between a set of parameterized variables, setting the grid colors all to full transparent. Then the other things would be to look at better support for confining grids to specific sections of a page, like the bottom left corner, were show mini page, with layout. Sadly, one needs to specify a container positions into which grid styles needs to render. So another level of abstraction, put grid styles into grid containers, which be positioned as annotations on objects. They don’t exist for exports, just visual clues. That have a design layer or label that every item can belong to, that turn on or off different assisting layers for designs. Kind Regards, Wesley Oliver

I’m a freelancer with multiple clients and would love a way to toggle between clients so I’m not seeing them all in one place at the top when I work – goal is to organize and improve focus. In this version of the app, the tabs would be for one client rather than a mix. A nice reference is Arc and how one can have ‘spaces’

I’ve been experiencing Figma prototype mode and i had an issue. when i open present mode to view my prototype, top of the the header of the designed website goes under the macbook notch. so I’ve been thinking adding a realtime status bar (Like realtime clock) thing to the prototypes would fix this problem and adds that realism to the present mode.

Hello, When I link many text boxes to one string variable, I want to see how many text boxes and which texts are linked to the one string variable. When I used “Find” function with a variable name, there is no result. Please add the variable name category in Find function. Thanks.

Right now, the behavior for search for assets works different depending on where in the interface you are. When I search using the Assets tab, it does not search for any “contains”. You need to type in the name of the asset from the start. However, when you search in the swap instance popup, it does do a “contains” search. I find this discrepancy insane, and it hinders my workflow greatly. I use a workaround where I just drag in an asset and then use the swap instance search to look for the actual asset I want.

…As sometimes an account may be overdrawn, but still the correct account.

Please improve the variable table to allow manual resizing of the columns, as well as automatically adjusting their width to the content size. It’s hard to read long variable names when they are truncated with “…”. And the hover tooltip doesn’t help.

When verifying comments left by peers, it can become very challenging to find them, and management them. Could we work on a dashboard or CMS looking interface that sorts all comments by people, time, tag so they can be managed and tracked better.

Often time we use branch to do usability testing instead of the main file, and many comments were made on the branch file. So when we want to merge the changes from branch file into the main one, the comments will be deleted and cannot be found anywhere. Please enhance the feature of also merging all comments on the branch into the main file. Thanks!

One thing I am struggling with at the moment is when use a component that already has “click” action, and wrap that component inside a frame and add another click action, I want both of these to be executed, but only one of them gets executed. Example setup: Accordion header that switches between ON/OFF when clicked. Accordion Item that collapses and opens when clicked. I tried many combinations of actions, put the action to the same element, parent elements etc. nothing works.

My company uses Google Docs for documentation. I’d love to be able to put artifacts into FigJam boards but whenever I paste in a link, I don’t get a proper preview, just a clickable URL. I’m assuming this is because FigJam can’t authenticate with Google Drive. Is this coming? It’s a big barrier to using FigJam at a broader level here.

Hi! I don’t believe I generally have trouble telling colours apart and I find yellow and orange stickies look very similar. Is this the right place to ask: might the “yellow” sticky colour be closer to Post-It yellow (i.e., fairly pale) instead of a colour that, to me, looks the same as an orange in my fruit bowl 🙂

It’d be great for us designers to attach a “documentation” file articulating all our decisions (and also being able to clarify whether there’s been a modification and why that decision was made) in order for devs to see that explanation on Dev mode and understand not only what has visually changed but also why, what’s the logic behind it, and why it improves/enhances the experience. Also, it’d be good to provide devs with a text box/voting tool to add their input into that modification if needed

off the back of my raised issue Dynamically loading files - bad for commuters! It would be great if we could have the option to download the whole file for offline use. Since dynamically loading files has launched, about 2 hours of my day is now very unproductive as I can’t use the files on my train commute. Wifi is intermittent and slow. I used to open all my files at home so I had access to them then I could use them on the train. Now I get loading spinners every time I change page in them. I personally don’t think DLF’s are a good update and feature. Bad for my example above, and when you are on strong Wifi it’s not solving a problem. Worst update Figma has made IMO

Please fix this, the community tab should be displayed by default, and hidden through a view menu option, not an arbitrary profile menu button.

Install the necessary Lao fonts into the OS: using the Change Font plugin: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1036021586377337050/change-font to change or customize your fonts in design

On the dimensions of an object you can constrain the height and width so that if one changes the other proportionately does so. When these objects are in an auto layout, however, this constraint isn’t respected and the width and height won’t maintain the same aspect ratio. If the object is set to fill horizontally or fill vertically, it won’t scale properly. I’d like the constraint set on the layers panel to be respected when objects resize in an auto-layout.

As a product designer I want to move thin and small objects in Figma easily So that I can easily reposition dividers and the like On macOS, I’m zoomed out and trying to move the selected rectangle, but there is no where I can click to begin moving the rectangle without causing a resize. I propose that we enable moving the item by dragging the dimensions “tag” (see [1 × 900] in screenshot).

Once upon a time, I was trying out the Gist plugin. As with many plugins, it can attach itself to layers in your document, as demonstrated here: Unfortunately, after years of copying and pasting in the design system library I’m working on, these empty references to a plugin I no longer use are scattered around random layers. How can I find these instances of this (or any) plugin, and remove them in bulk? Imagine being able to click that little “minus” button next to View documentation a few hundred times, without having to hunt each one down manually. 'm assuming a plugin (or snippet of code I turn into one) will be involved…

Hi! I’d like to be able to customise the color of the pixel grid, e.g. to increase the contrast when doing intricate line work. Cheers!

When copy and pasting styles such as rounded corners or drop shadow to an image, sometimes I just want to be able to copy a new image and keep the same style properties, but I can’t copy just the properties and not the image. I would love if the image fill weren’t a property that gets copied when you do command+shift+C. Thanks!

User Story: We want a feature in Figma that allows us to group comments by specific feedback sessions, So that we can manage, review, and address feedback more effectively and maintain a clear and organized workflow in our design projects. Feature Description: Group Creation: Users can create multiple ‘Feedback Groups’ within a Figma file. These groups are customizable and can be named according to the feedback session, topic, or any other relevant categorization. Assigning Comments to Groups: When adding a comment, users have the option to assign it to an existing Feedback Group via a dropdown menu in the comment interface. They can also move comments to different groups as needed. Viewing Grouped Comments: A new panel in the Figma interface allows users to view comments by group. Selecting a group will display all the comments associated with it, providing a focused view of feedback related to a specific session or topic. Group Management: Users can edit the name of the Feedb
