difrent fills and strokes for defrent areas in the same object

the idea is simple. often times I am creating a design, in witch two objects share a curve/edge, but have a different fill color. the only way to make the different fill color is to create two separate objects, but then later on if you have to edit the line you have to edit all instances of the object. or sometimes I have the same object that I want two different fill colors on, and again I have to make two separate objects. the same goes for strokes. so, I sujust that there be some way to within one object have totally different fills and strokes. there is already a way to have multiple fills, but they only layer on top of each other with different opacities, and same with strokes. I think that the different fills and things could be added using this same UI, witch would also allow the mixing of different fills as well. you could also apply / remove the different fills to different area using something similar to the new paint / bucket fill tool. anyways, I know this might be a bit ch

Variables distinguish between auto layout gap and padding

Currently, when using variables, in the settings you can’t select wether you want a value (for example, padding-sm) to apply to just the padding or the gap of an auto layout. Which means that when you want to select a gap variable, it shows all the padding values as well. Can we get a setting for this?

Start Conversation in Figma (call)

It’s a great idea when I start a dialogue in Figma with other designers to give them the opportunity to invite them into the conversation. Some kind of sound signal or popup so that they can hear that I am calling them to talk 🤙. like a phone call. accept or reject. Only for participants who are currently working in the same file. But in the future it is possible to call me to a specific file and talk there. And I will immediately get into the conversation on the file that I am invited to. Because every time I go to a private chat on Telegram or Skype and ask them to talk to me in Figma.

Figma Sites needs the ability to set fit to viewport height and width options.

One of the issues that I’m encountering is because their is now viewport height or width options, you aren’t actually able to independently scroll multiple frames. Ie if you want to be able to scroll a side menu bar independentally of the content. You actually aren’t able to do this unless you set a specific height for the page and then clip the content to be able to scroll the overflow.The issue with this is because the you have defined a fixed height for the page, it’s not actually recognising the dimensions of the viewport, so if the viewport in the browser window changes it’s size relative to the fixed height you specified in the Figma Sites. It actually breaks the scroll behaviour because you haven’t been able to tell the page that the actual height of the page it needs to be referencing is not the fixed height defined in Figma Sites but should in fact be 100% fill to the vertical viewport height instead.

Figma Make and working with existing design systems

I think you are on the right track with Figma Make with the recent feature of being able to select a design system library. However, if you take this a few more steps I think you might have something:Expand the definition of a Figma design library object to include design system concerns including: design components, design tokens, and guidelines (general usage, component usage, accessibility compliance, motion, etc.) - similar to what you can add to the Guidelines.md file. Allow designers to edit all of these concerns in Figma, attaching them to their design system. When the user selects a design library in Figma Make all of those concerns come with it. Think of it as a schema or blueprint for building components and applications. Provide the ability to connect to existing production (React, Angular, Web Components, etc.) components in GitHub so that designer prototypes are rendered with a very high level of accuracy and fidelity. Alternatively, generate components based on the guidel

Deploying an app-ads.txt file to Figma site

Hi Figma team,I recently created a Figma site for my app and really love the experience.However, I need to upload a file called app-ads.txt to the root of my domain. This file is required by AdMob to verify ownership of the app and allow us to display ads.Is there any way to host or upload this file directly in a Figma site?Thanks in advance!

Admin Feature Request: Multi-select Filtering

I am an Admin within my organization and love that I am able to filter within the “People” tab, but wish I had the ability to select multiple options under each. For example, I often want to look at Full, Dev, and Collab under seat types as I do not need to see “View” seat types. But I am only able to select one of these at a time and then need to unselect and select the next one.

Feature request: Automatically save to version history the state before I flatten a a shape

My colleague was relying on version history and started flattening shapes for an illustration. It would be great when you select flatten from the menu that Figma would save the state before executing the flatten action.

Cursors for prototyping

A very common way for me to share motion prototypes in an accessible way across my org is dropping it into a deck in Google Slides. I’ve found the best way to do this is to create a prototype (device: none), screen record that prototype using QuickTime, and then convert the .mov to a .gif using GIF Brewery 3. This process works pretty well. The primary downside is that the only way to get a touch cursor in the prototype is to set the device to a mobile device, which then includes the device chrome. This is not ideal for screen recording and creating a .gif as it increases the file and image size. A simple way of solving this would be to include cursor settings in top-level prototype settings that includes a choice of either a touch cursor or a pointer cursor (this is similar to how Principle does it: View->Toggle Preview Cursor Type). While this would solve for my specific use case, I also think it allows people to create more robust prototypes for touch devices that excludes device

Admin Messaging

Figma should allow customization of the message shown to users requesting a seat. We have specific eligibility requirements, and currently, I have to manually follow up with each requester to confirm their eligibility. This creates unnecessary administrative overhead, especially with multiple administrators involved.

Figma Feature Idea - Ability to easily select all variables, effects or components when publishing

I think it would be handy if, when publishing a library, I could easily select/deselect:All variables, All text styles All effect styles All layout guide styles All other (ie. components)

Smooth scroll experience

Hi Figma Team,I’m a regular Figma user and truly appreciate how powerful and intuitive your design tools are. One thing I’ve often felt limited by during prototyping is the lack of a smooth scroll experience — especially when simulating navigation or scroll-to-section flows.It would be amazing if we could have true smooth scrolling, similar to how real websites behave (with easing, momentum, and natural flow). This would greatly help us mimic real-world experiences more accurately during prototype testing.Hope this is something you consider for future updates. Thanks for all the great work!

Allow bulk editing text styles

Now that we have variables support for text styles, it’s taking a while to update all the properties to match text variables. It’d be really, really helpful to be able to apply variables to multiple text styles at once, by selecting all font styles that we want to apply a variable to and editing the property, since most of these are shared between different styles. With that feature, text migration to variables would be super easy and seamless.

Owners should be able to delete comments

I can’t seem to delete other peoples comments they have left. I am the creator / owner of the figma file and can only delete my own comments. Wondering if this is this normal? Why can’t we delete other peoples comments? The only solution I have found is to copy and paste the frames into a new design file which seems somewhat absurd?

Guest Access Experience Not Intuitive

I’ve been using Figma as a guest collaborator and I wanted to share a bit of feedback. When I click on a team that has shared a project with me, I’m taken to a team overview page that appears empty or says I’m not a member—despite having access to a project. I only see the shared project by navigating through Recents, which feels a bit unintuitive.It would make for a smoother experience if I could be taken directly to the project I have access to, or at least see it listed within the team view instead of a blank page. I think this change could reduce confusion for guest users and make collaboration easier.

Manual select when swapping libraries

Especially with the recent Variables update. It’s more important than ever to have the ability to migrate all the old Styles with new Variables. However, the current behavior is that it only matches whatever “name” is the same. This makes the whole swapping library a very underpowered feature. Ideally, it should simply allow us to pick Variables or Styles to swap with the old library. This has been requested back in 2021.

Blur is Everywhere — Except Figma Overlays

It’s frustrating that Figma still doesn’t support background blur in overlay settings. We can tweak color and opacity, but no blur—something that’s essential for many interface styles. A common workaround is adding a blurred background directly to the overlay component frame, but that breaks things like dismissing the overlay by clicking outside or smooth blur animations. Blur is so common in UI design today, it really should be a built-in feature at this point.

Published Variable Adjustment - Editing Non-Local Variables

Can I edit the variables defined in a published library locally? There is a library file (Say File A) with a collection of local variables defining some string and numbers shown on a component. The component is published (with all variables too) I added this component to another file, say File B, but when I want to edit those strings and numbers locally in this File B, I can no longer see the these variables, nor editing them. Seems like I can only edit the published component in the library File A (if I have edit access) and this will change all the instances too. Can I instead edit it locally, meaning edit the values of these publish variables only in File B?

Proposal: add an Annotations panel, i.e. a List view for Annotations

Annotations can be hard to find and are often critical. A central spot that allows me to make sure I see them all would be very welcome. I’d suggest clicking an item on the list in the panel should focus the element and its annotation in the main canvas. Thanks.

Mock scroll position

As a designer, I’m frequently mocking up flows in which a user must scroll down to take an action. In order to accomplish this, I end up removing auto layout and manually moving the content to the intended position.It would be excellent if we could set a scroll position in design mode, or simply use a scroll tool to click and drag the content.

Variable picker - how to change the token's thumbnails

In the right panel of Figma Design, when opening the Variables dropdown menu or applying variables for any numeric input (Corner radius, Gap, Padding...). Next to each token, there is a new thumbnail representing a number value “1234”. It’s disturbing the reading of my variables. How can I go switch to the previous dropdown design ?Thank you

Ability to hide pages from Figma Buzz template

I’ve started using Figma Buzz to create templates for our clients. I love that I can publish a template, send them a link and then they can use a copy for their own uses without accidentally breaking the design when the guidelines are locked. I also love the bulk create feature within it. There’s just one thing I’m struggling to be able to do. Within our company we create thumbnail covers for all our design files and Figjam boards and slides so that when we see them within our team folders we can easily identify which project is which. These usually have details like what type of file it is, the project name, the client etc. When I add one of these in to my Figma Buzz file, it’s visible as a page in the published template link. I would like to find a way to hide this from the published template link, so that it’s only visible to us. If there’s already a way to do this, please let me know 😄 but if not I would love to suggest this as a feature.

Constraints Issue with Fixed Layers in Prototype Mode

Hi everyone, I’ve been dealing with a bug for years now. We all know that to make a layer stretch with the frame horizontally, we can set its constraints to “Left + Right.” However, when the layer is set to “Fixed” in the Prototype tab, it’s no longer possible to select “Left + Right” in the constraints. I noticed that several people have reported this issue in the past few years(Here). Is there any chance this could be fixed soon? (It’s really frustrating!)
