What do you think about having a horizontal scroll on the layers panel? I can’t see the name of the layers and usually widen the panel to be able to see, but since I use a 13", this makes the canvas smaller.

Previously I’ve used the “starred items” function to have a quick way to open key files on projects I’m currently working on (without mixing up copies or branches of the main file, which happens on the “recently viewed” tab). It appears Figma is removing the starred items section from the sidebar. Is there a better way to ‘pin’ specific files that are SHARED with me (not owned by me, and saved within a team I’m not part of), so I can find/access them more easily than going via Recents > Shared Files. Thanks!

Hey Figma team and community! Feature idea: *Figma Wrapped* — a personalized annual stats summary, like Spotify Wrapped but for designers.At the end of each year, every user gets a recap:→ Total hours spent in Figma→ Components & frames created→ Layers named (and not named 😅)→ Top collaborators→ Most-used fonts & colors→ Busiest design day of the year→ Fun personality badges — "Component Factory", "Auto-Layout Champion", "The One Who Names Layers"Shareable cards, team comparisons, the works.The design community already loves this kind of thing — it would drive massive organic sharing and genuinely celebrate the craft. Feels like a natural fit for Figma's brand.Would love to see this happen! Who else is in? 🙌

We are successful in accessing the figma remote MCP exposed at "https://mcp.figma.com/mcp" via OAuth based access via browser SSO login. We are exploring ways to automate figma MCP access in a headless mode so would like to understand passing PAT token for remote MCP authentication. We tried passing PAT in Auth headers and X-Figma-Token header but get unauthorized for remote MCP at this endpoint "https://mcp.figma.com/mcp". We are able to use the dev mode and local MCP with the figma desktop app as explained above we need to access these tools in a headless mode and would understand if there are any settings that needs to be enabled at the admin level to support PAT for remote MCP auth. ❯ curl --location 'https://mcp.figma.com/mcp' \--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \--header 'X-Figma-Token: figd_xxxx' \--header 'Accept: application/json' \--data '{    "jsonrpc": "2.0",    "method": "tools/list",    "params": {},    "id": "1"  }'Unauthorized❯ curl --location 'https://mcp.figma.

As a user I want to lock the guides so that I dont accidently select or move them. This is frustrating. There are times when layout grids are are the correct tool to use and a time when guides/rules are the correct tool. When you are zoomed out it’s impossible to select elements without selecting or moving guides/rules. 🙂 …to everything turn turn turn turn…

Stroke is a very basic and commonly used feature. In my workflow, I often need to create multiple strokes on a single object, as shown in the image.Although Figma supports multiple strokes, all strokes share the same property and have only one width value. As a result, even when multiple strokes are added, they overlap completely. This makes adding multiple strokes essentially meaningless.I suggest allowing each stroke layer to have its own independent width property. 

Inside the option “Reset specific changes” the current “Reset Size” eaction only resets dimensions, but does not revert other Auto Layout-related changes such as alignment, positioning. The request is to extend the existing “Reset specific changes” functionality by adding a dedicated option for (Auto) Layout properties. This would allow users to fully reset all Auto Layout modifications in a single step and restore the component to its original layout configuration.  

Today, profile avatars in Figma account settings only display as static images. The Help Center states that GIF uploads are converted to a static image. There is no supported way to use an animated avatar in collaboration surfaces (multiplayer cursors, comments, Community profile, FigJam stamps, etc.).Other design tools in the same market already support animated profile avatars (for example, MasterGo supports APNG for dynamic avatars). Users who want a more expressive personal identity in the product currently have no first-party option in Figma.Proposed solutionAllow animated profile avatars in Account settings (and team/org avatars if applicable). Support at least: APNG (preferred: supports transparency, often better quality than GIF) Animated WebP (optional, good compression) GIF (optional, for backward compatibility — but should actually play, not be flattened to a static frame) Define clear limits, for example: Max file size (e.g. 2–5 MB) Max dimensions (e.g. 500×500 minimum

I’d like the possibility to automatically post an update message on Slack every time an update to a library file is published. Ideally the message includes: Name of the library Changelog (user submitted text in the publishing dialog) List of the impacted components This would make it easier for other designers and developers to notice and discuss such updates.

I have been playing around with creating variables but realized I would rather have groups in separate collections, but cannot move them.I would like to be able to duplicate an entire collection so I don’t have to manually re-create values and can remove what I don’t need from that collection OR simply be able to move groups into other collections.[The title of this post was edited from “LAUNCHED: Copy/Move variable groups into other collections” to “Copy/Move variable groups into other collections” by a moderator on 17-Jan-2026.]

Stamps are a cool feature, but I’m consistently disappointed by them. Straight up, we need:The entire standard emoji library as stamps Ability to add other people’s pfp icons as stickers (you can only do your own) The ability to add custom stamps I think #1 is the most impactful and would address some of the other, similar suggestions. I don’t even want Figma to make their own version of the emojis, they can just be 1:1 with some standard library (google’s, twemoji, etc.)

I propose that Figma introduce a search capability within the “Figma Make” prompt interface. Currently, users who wish to review previously entered prompts must manually navigate through the entire prompt history, which can be inefficient and time-consuming. Implementing a search function would significantly enhance usability by enabling quick retrieval of past prompts, thereby improving productivity and overall user experience.

Can we please have screen recording for prototypes already before the ai stuff?!😫

This is so annoying! Each month I need to search for the invoice in your unfriendly interface. Seriously now! Better unsubscribe the service than getting such frustration.

Can Figma generate Flutter source code?  Yes — with the help of plugins and AI-powered tools, Figma designs can now be converted into Flutter code much faster. It helps developers speed up UI building, reduce repetitive work, and turn design concepts into functional mobile app layouts more efficiently.

I would like to suggest adding support for linear gradients in drop shadow effects. Currently, only solid colors are available for shadows, and I was wondering if there is any specific reason why gradient shadows are not supported yet.This feature would be very useful for creating more modern and creative UI designs directly within Figma without relying on external tools or workarounds. 

I’m trying to create the text effect in this image. The odometer’s text wraps around the circle very nicely. Right now I have to use a plugin, but I lose the ability to edit the text afterwards and there is no preview so I have to try a few times to get the text to wrap nicely. Sketch had a feature where if you dragged a text on top of a path it would snap to it and would follow the path. A similar feature (perhaps with a better implementation) would be very welcome on Figma.

I still consider myself a newbie in Figma (this is a caveat), though I’ve had a chance to play around with it. My hope in using Figma is that it will make it easier and quicker for those collaborating with designers - mainly PMs, Devs, and QA, to find the designs they are looking for. Coming from Invision, it was a pretty bad experience (sorry Invision), and after checking out Figma and other potential solutions out there, I was sold on Figma (for many reasons), and pitched it to my client. Now we are going in. An important contextual aspect of this topic, is the fact that many, if not most doing software development these days, follow some flavor of agile development - so think epics, stories/tasks, and sprints, for example. So the challenge here is, how to best match up the agile development process, to how everything in the Figma design space is organized, so that designs are quick and easy to find, not just for the figma designers. I was hoping to leverage Figma’s rich organization

For God’s sakes why isn’t Figma including this feature? It has been years ever since the community requested this.Use case: Clients keep bombarding comments and would simply like to finalize by deadline of their feedback phase. Isn’t enabling/disabling a basic feature nowadays? Or is there some kind of conspiracy or business ulterior motive behind this?Most of the time Figma keeps on adding a bunch of features but the basic ones - especially for design which is supposed to be the foundation - are not being implemented.

OverviewFigma Variables are already powerful for theming and responsive behavior - but Auto Layout settings remain static. Currently, we can’t change layout direction (horizontal/vertical), item sizing (hug/fill), or alignment (space-between, center, etc.) using variables.This limits the flexibility of truly responsive components - especially in systems using mode-based logic. Current LimitationRight now, Figma only supports number-based variables in Auto Layout settings (e.g., padding, gap, min/max width). But many key layout settings require string values, and they’re not variable-compatible yet: Direction: Horizontal / Vertical Justification: Space-between / Center / Start Sizing: Hug / Fill / Fixed This makes it hard to create truly responsive components that adapt to screen size. Practical Example: Card Layout Breaks ResponsivelyTo demonstrate this limitation, I created a responsive Card component made of: Media section (image) Info section (text + tags) I used min and max v

When marking a comment as resolved, we are now automatically moved to the next one. I’m wondering if or how we can disable this behaviour?My work flow being to go from screen to screen of user flows, and not comments to comments, this is very disrupting as it can bring me anywhere in the file, and I need to find and navigate back to where I was. I understand this might be useful for reviewers that only goes through questions left by other people, but this probably not most users, so it would be useful to have the ability to disable this feature.

Text-style overrides like bold, underline, … won’t work on instances properly, now the instance must be rest for the bold overrides to come though. So a lot of screens needs to be rechecked and manual work is needed everywhere the instance is used. Any solutions for this?

I spend far too much time deleting that blurb when all I want to do is point Claude to the correct URL from the MCP. I have better prompts.Either make that bit go away, or let me copy just the URL.

Hello, as the title states, I am curious if GHES support for Code Connect is coming or is this a hard limitation and we should never expect that service? Thanks!
