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’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
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!
Figma Make is the best prototyping tool I have seen so far (yes, better, or at least more time efficient, than V0 and Claude Code for now). It also has an integration with Github, which is suuuper cool. Now… it would be REALLY gamechanging, if the connection with Github was a two way sync. If edited code could be pulled back into Figma Make, for team collaboration across multiple platforms. I understand that this is really tricky, because Figma Make can't interpret all types of code… but I'm putting it out there…
I would like to “protect” or “lock” specific pages within a file from receiving library updates - similarly to how I can hide components from being published, but applied on the receiving end. This would allow me to update all of the components in my file much quicker if only one or two pages were “protected”, rather than needing to go through each page individually and apply the updates. The types of protected pages would likely be from a demo or a prototype version that captures the evolution of the product’s design phase.
This feature can create a copy of design file with all the variables and components intact.To convert, user can may have following option to choose for smooth conversion:a primary screen size copy existing screen to figma site file or leave blank (variables and components intact) choose 1 page of design file to be converted (limitation for time being)(not applicable in case of blank) keep fimga Make components intact
Are customer inquiries or bug report requests originally this easily ignored?Is it because I can't speak English and translate it?Simple inquiries come in response, but reports and handling of bugs are ignored without reply, even though only manual answers are provided and additional answers are continuously requested.Is it always like that? I've raised the issue in Figma Make where I keep going back to the previous version of work and keep using credits repeatedly, and I've sent 3 additional requests for answers since the last message 22 days ago saying I'll look closely, but I'm being ignored.
Hello, I couldn’t find a feature in Figma where we can constrain trigger or hotspot bounds to a vector shape instead of a rectangular bounding box. The current version doesn’t support the design use cases similar to those below (eg: interactive pie charts) where transparent pixels are ignored in a non-rectangular shape because the hotspot bounding box is always rectangular. It would be nice to constrain the hotspot area to the desired shape instead of a rectangle. Please check the attached Figma file. Hotspot bounds.fig (7.0 MB) Is it possible to include HTML image maps so the hotspot shape can use a polygonal shape? Please check the URL below. w3schools.com
Feature Request: Reset Bounding Box / Auto-Swap Dimensions on RotationOne workflow improvement that would greatly help designers transitioning from tools like Illustrator is better handling of rotated objects in the properties panel.Currently in Figma, when a rectangle or shape is rotated 90°, the Width and Height values in the right-side Layout panel continue to reflect the object’s original, unrotated dimensions rather than its visual orientation.For example:- A rectangle created at 628 × 56- Rotated -90°- Still displays as W: 628 / H: 56This can become confusing when working with:- gradients- auto layout- constraints- responsive components- production handoff- precise UI sizingAdobe Illustrator recently improved this behavior by automatically updating dimensions based on orientation, or allowing users to use “Reset Bounding Box” to redefine the transformed state.Suggested improvements:- Automatically swap width/height values when rotating 90° or 270°- Add a “Reset Bounding Box” comm
Figma has been a pain in a**. The entire Figma feels shit. Figma never fails to disappoint me everyday. If you are giving big a** boxes then it should be entirely clickable why do I’ve to stick my cursor to text. It happens everywhere in layers, design panel, variables. For each select I’ve to press at least 3 times then it selects fully and that too when I hit that small clickable text area. Everything is so irritating. And after making components why the hell does it need to add useless “State=” word in it. I cant even batch rename it. The rename box should be expandable so I can see the entire name if its big. The color picker should’ve pin feature. Thousand time I’ve to click that color to open it. And in variable when we are adding colors it comes in the way of variables. If I’ve created H1 regular Text Style and want to create H2 Regular Text Style, the duplicate option adds the same style inside the H1, it should create some H1’ or H2. Cause only two change are needed, and I’ve
I have noticed a regression on text property function in components. In the past, I was able to apply different text colors across variants, but this is no longer working. The text property now overrides styling in a way that prevents variant-specific color adjustments. In another case, the text property does not properly handle different variant states. For example, when creating an accordion component with open and closed states, the text property does not adapt correctly even though the text layer on the header remains the same. This limits the ability to manage dynamic components effectively and requires manual text update when designing variation of screen sizes and states. The text property was introduced to simplify updating text across multiple variants, but the current behaviour makes this workflow more difficult. At its core, this feature should allow users to update text values regardless of styling or variant differences, as long as the text layer is assigned to the propert
When creating grids on Figma, it would be useful if one could pick a specific column or row and just drag it across the layout to reorder content.Sometimes the content is too complex to select each individual cell and just move it around with the arrow or dragging. It could be cool to drag the whole column or row to reorder content.I think this is a natural instinct for most people, and not being able to do it when designing is kind of restricting in my opinion. The handle could even be the current “circle” that appears above/aside the table.
I'm excited for Bulk Create in Figma Buzz. It’s a lot more intuitive for our marketers to use, but at its current stage it’s actually more time consuming than our existing workflow, mainly because it doesn’t have the ability to bulk rename frames or the exported filenames. That means we still end up having to manually rename "Frame1.png" all the way to "Frame175.png".Here’s our use case: we need to create OpenGraph images for a website with over a hundred pages. We have two design templates: one with page title only, one with page title and a subhead.Currently, the marketing & web dev team maintain a spreadsheet of all the pages currently exist.We have the 2 designs set up as components and use a plugin called Scribe - Dynamic data in seconds to pull in the CSV and use a column we choose for naming the frames / files.I can see Bulk Create doing this as well, and even adding some common renaming & conditional naming options (i.e. case options, removing + replacing + appending ch
Hello Figma Team,I’ve been working a lot with Figma Make, and I really appreciate how smooth and intuitive it is. However, I’ve run into a challenge when copying a design.Currently, copying requires clicking the Copy Design button. This becomes difficult when I need to copy a hover state of a component, because moving my mouse to the button causes the hover state to disappear. As a result, I can't copy the hovered version unless I screenshot manually or work around it.A keyboard shortcut for copying would solve this problem perfectly. With a shortcut, I could keep my mouse on the component to maintain the hover state while triggering the copy action from the keyboard.This would greatly improve workflow and interaction design handling in Figma Make.Thanks for considering this!Looking forward to future updates.Kind regards,Aaron
I’ve found slots incredibly buggy right now unfortunately. I love the idea, but they’ve been rather frustrating lately.I’ve had two bugs that seem related I have repeatedly had, but am unable to set up a test file for these. Slot sizes not adjustingSomething like this hierarchy. Despite the fact the two components are bound in an autolayout with gutter, it doesn’t seem to paint properly. I often have to double click the children components individually.Component >↪ Slot↪↪ Rows [Autolayout]↪↪↪ Row [Autolayout]↪↪↪↪ [Component]↪↪↪↪ [Component] Slot content not refreshingSometimes a colleague uses my account on their computer to check something. When checking an instance of a component with a slot, sometimes they see the default content and not the content I’ve put in there. Despite it being saved. I have found no solution for this except detaching the instance.
Concept idea for highlighting which components need to be publishedWhen I navigate through my Design System, it’s not immediately clear which components have pending changes that need to be published. Being able to identify them would allow me to select them and publish the changes without having to manually scan through them. It would also be helpful to identify which nested components need to be published as well.When you hover over a component nested within another, it indicates whether it has pending updatesThis other idea aims to display—either on hover or by default—which nested components have pending updates
Hello Figma Team, I’d like to suggest some improvements to Figma’s table workflow to make practical table editing much more efficient for real-world use cases. Currently, basic table layouts are possible, but there are still limitations when working with tables in professional design workflows. I believe the following improvements could greatly enhance usability: • Improved cell, row, and column editingIt would be helpful to have more intuitive controls for adding, deleting, duplicating, resizing, and merging cells, rows, and columns. • Better spreadsheet and external data integrationConnecting or importing data from Excel or Google Sheets more seamlessly into Figma tables would significantly improve workflow efficiency. • Bulk style editing for tablesApplying typography, padding, borders, background colors, and other styles across multiple cells at once would save a lot of production time. • Expanded use cases for calendars and schedulesIf table functionality becomes more powerful, Fi
I’m building a design system and am calling out specific gradient use. I’m only allowed to rotate 90° increments. Please add the ability to manually enter degrees so I can save it to a style. This allows all my designers to not have to manually adjust gradient on text or other objects that I can’t save as a component.
