I really like the idea of having the UI panels auto hide/show on hover from the left and right edges. It makes the whole experience feel much cleaner and more focused, especially when you want to fully immerse yourself in the working space. You still get quick access to the panels without them constantly being in the way, which feels nice and intuitive.

I’m often going through my Recents to find my files, and will often click on the file I’m looking for that comes up first - whether it’s the prototype or the design file. It’s annoying that they’re saved differently. I wish they were condensed into one item that could give me the choice (open as proto? open as design?). Though, also, I’m also almost never trying to open up the proto from my library. I’m almost always going to the design file.  

I think Buzz is a great idea - along with social media templates, maybe email templates could be a cool addition as well (if Buzz is a bucket for all things promotional)

Our team is automating workflows with AI, and we’re loving Figma Make. Only thing is, we can’t collaborate via comments like we’re used to in Figma. Any way to drop comments/feedback right in Make so we’re not bouncing between tools or risking things getting lost?

In the Figma editor, you can change the blend mode and opacity for Sections. But blendMode and opacity properties is missing in both Plugin API and REST API, so it is not possible to read/write it. Please add these properties to the SectionNode object.

I prefer to use my mouse to drag font size up and down to dial things in but the interaction zone must be 1 pixel in size at the moment. In comparison, the drag zone for line stroke is massive and never an issue. I’d be so happy to have this improved, although my mouse accuracy has gone up as a result XD 

Implement variable font property in plugin API and rest api Unfortunately it is not possible to get the complete properties for variable fonts via API access. Please implement the CSS property “font-variation-settings” for “wght”, “wdth”, “slnt” … “opsz” Or have I overlooked something, how do I get the information via the APis?

All the time I work with component variables and for content on the screens I need to pick random variables. Would be very nice to have the button to not change each instance manuallyThank you

Team-Scoped Commenting for PrototypesDesigners frequently need feedback from multiple teams (Product, Engineering, Marketing, Legal, Leadership) on the same prototype. Today, separating feedback requires duplicating files or links, which introduces version drift and overhead.Proposed solutionEnable team- or audience-scoped commenting on a single prototype link. One shared prototype URL Comment visibility determined by: Email Domain Team / workspace group Reviewers only see comments from their assigned group(s) Designers see all comments across groups Key capabilities Create multiple “feedback groups” per prototype Group-only or designer-only comment visibility Optional group switcher

As a math and science teacher who uses Figma every day, I would like to request that superscript and subscript be added as options in text boxes on FigJam boards. Please! It would be so helpful when typing exponents, chemical formulas, and more. Thank you! -A dedicated and loyal Figma enthusiast

Within the canvas, I’d like the layer panel to display only the items that are currently within the visible viewport. Without working with the wrapping into new sections feature.At the moment, the panel shows one long list of all layers and frames, which makes navigation slow and cluttered—especially in larger files. Filtering the layer list to what’s in view would: Improve focus and readability Lowering level depth – more flexible way of working imho Speed up navigation in complex canvases Reduce cognitive load when working on specific sections Optional nice-to-have: a toggle to switch between “Visible frames only” and “All layers”. If anyone has tips and tricks, please let me know!

So i stumbled upon the issue that if you post a link to a branch somewhere, and merge the branch afterwards, the link still points to the merged branch. This might cause issues as its not really clear to the developers if the branch is still up2date or not. Maybe there is a possibility to somehow show that this specific branch has been merged ? or even link directly to the main branch?

Hi all,Recently, there was an announcement that it is possible to generate diagrams and flow using Claude Opus with the Figma “connector”. Now I wanted to try this but it seems that Figma make does not use the Figma connector, because it cannot create anything on Figjam. This is frustrating, it means the Figma subscription is not enough at the moment to be able to access a feature mainly thought for Figma users.I hope this gets solved. So far, make was able for me to turn excel files into csv flows, but it would be awesome to be able to make Figjam components directly (like the demos show when using Claude).

I created a website using Figma Sites, but the OGP image is not appearing when sharing the URL on social platforms (X, Slack, etc.).URL: https://saionhouse.comCould you confirm if OGP metadata is supported in Figma Sites, and how to properly configure it? 

There’s no visible scrollbar in Figma prototyping mode. Yesterday we’re having user testings and once again this same topic popped out. Some of the users didn’t thought that they could scroll prototype because scrollbar wasn’t visible. One of the user was using laptop’s touchpad and he wasn’t able to scroll with only using touchpad. Guiding user how to use prototype during test can harm testing situations. Atleast it’s sure that if user thought that he can’t scroll it leads to biased feedback about product. If there’s some reason not to have scrollbar it could be atleast optional feature that designer could turn visible scrollbar on from options. It’s not only who has came across with this weakness in Figma. Here’s old Spectrum thread about same topic but Figma hasn’t done anything for this yet and I hope

Let’s follow the desktop browser mental model of putting cursor focus in the search input field after opening a new tab so users can immediately begin typing a filename without having to use the mouse to click into the search field first.I’m so used to being able to open a new tab with Cmd+T and immediately begin typing my file name without my fingers leaving the keyboard in Chrome, that it would honestly save me quite a bit of time in the long run in Figma too. 😅I can’t tell you how many times I’ve opened a new tab and begun typing before realizing my cursor wasn’t in the search field yet. (The number would be embarrassing, and continues to climb!)

Hi Figma team,I’m currently exploring Figma Sites for personal and educational projects, and I have a question about the product’s future direction.Are there any plans to support custom domains for Education or Free accounts in the future?For many Education and Free users, custom domains are important for: personal portfolios case studies educational or nonprofit projects sharing work in a more professional way Even if this feature were offered with limitations (for example: one domain per account, Figma Sites only, or as an optional add-on), it would still provide a lot of value to non-paid users.I understand that detailed roadmaps may not be publicly available, but any insight into whether this is being considered would be very helpful for users planning long-term projects with Figma S

Have you ever sent over a design file for feedback to open it a week later with 40+ comments? I have and I’m sure you have too. The problemIt takes a lot of time to review comments after a feedback round. It can get repetitive and sometimes the feedback can mean the same thing but being written differently. If you have a lot of different commenters, the list becomes long and tedious to go through. The solutionOne button to summarise comments that will produce out a summary and propose the next steps. Each summary should include links to the root comment so the user can review the original comment. The summary could be in a tab in the comments panel where you can toggle between original comments and summary to easily go back and forth. 

With the interactive components, a variant can now have a tooltip. But unfortunately hover and clickactions are still mutual exclusive. I’m designing for a desktop application and having a tooltip per inputelement/button is crucial.

When a user requests a license, it would be beneficial be able to see their information, life from the “People” tab. Currently, I have to copy their email address, go to People, and then look at their Workspace and Activity to easily see if I should grant their license request. 

I have been designing for set-top boxes for several years now. And it is very convenient to do it through the transmission of the screen to the TV. But, there is no official support for Figma Mirror for TV sets. Many times I wrote to support and asked, but I always got the answer that there is no support. The most interesting thing is that Figma Mirror works perfectly on Nvidia Shield or Google Chrome (last generation) set-top boxes. You only need to put the app through aptoide. But with each time figma mirror refines the functionality for the phone, which severely degrades the functionality in TVs. For example, last year, after another update, the Remote Control for prototyping stopped working on the TV. It was very convenient to make a prototype, connect the buttons on the remote, and control the app. It felt like you were really using an out-of-the-box app. But it doesn’t work anymore. The second example happened with the last update. There was onboarding, w

I’d love to be able to copy and paste styles between objects in a FigJam document. This would allow me to style and keep consistent style within a document more quickly. I imagine this implemented the same way as in Figma design files. Cmd+alt+C copies all attributes (color, type of container [square, rounded, etc.], text style) or line style attributes (thickness, dashed, arrow(s)) and Cmd+alt+V pastes on all (applicable) selected objects. This should work for shapes, arrows and texts. Thanks for a great product!

The Problem: > Currently, Figma’s native PDF export converts all text layers into vector paths (SVG objects). This causes several major issues: High File Size: Vectorizing every character creates unnecessarily large files. No Accessibility: Text is not selectable, searchable, or readable by screen readers. Professional Limitation: We cannot use Figma for brochures, data sheets, or documents that require copyable text. Proposed Solution: > Implement Font Embedding (subsetting) in the PDF export engine. Retaining text as a "text layer" would make Figma a viable alternative to Illustrator or InDesign for document design.Why it matters: > This would significantly improve workflow for designers creating marketing assets and technical documents within Figma, ensuring files remain lightweig

It would be incredibly helpful to either display or index the filename for an image asset added to Figma as an image “Fill”. We often build website and app comps with final assets and photography (including some stock assets). We are utilizing the Image Fill feature a

When I'm trying to upload a file, for instance bc I want to change an image, the file explorer always opens the desktop as default. It would be really smart to always show the last used folder as this is more likely to be the correct folder rather than desktop.
