Share Your Thoughts

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.

It would be incredibly helpful to see where a component instance is used across all files, not just within the current file. Designers working with shared libraries often hesitate to edit or remove a component because they don’t know which other files rely on it.A built-in Figma feature that shows which files and pages a component is used in would boost confidence in making changes and improve design system maintainability.

Although the new version of the color filler can clearly see more configurations, you can't directly fill in the HEX value. You must open the filler and select the HEX mode to fill it in. It is not in line with an excellent interactive design experience. I hope it will be modified in the next version. In addition, each major version change of figma will lead to a lot of additional learning costs. I hope the product manager can reflect on it. Finally, thank the team for providing such a useful tool.

Hello Figma Team, First of all, thank you for your continuous efforts in improving Figma. I would like to provide feedback regarding the slide feature (using frames as slides for presentations or documentation).Currently, there is no option to set custom aspect ratios (e.g., 16:9) or manually adjust slide frame sizes, which creates limitations when designing and sharing content across different environments. In particular, as mobile-first content consumption increases, there is growing demand for vertical slide formats (e.g., 9:16).However, the current slide feature seems to be optimized for horizontal layouts, making it difficult to work with vertical slides without unwanted whitespace or layout distortion. Additionally:  There’s no way to freely set the aspect ratio or size of individual slide frames. The display output for slides is fixed, which often causes layout inconsistencies in real-world presentation or documentation use cases.  If the slide feature allowed custom frame rat

Has anyone found a way to copy, transfer or move the new local variables to another file or collection? Just created around 400 color variables manually in the wrong file and would hate having to re-create them in the correct one 😅

Hi, I've been working on a prototype, and animating the chat bubbles turned out to be quite a tedious task. To create the animation, I had to duplicate multiple frames and apply individual delay animations to each chat bubble.I'm wondering, is there a way to apply a delay animation to a group of elements collectively and adjust the timing for each, similar to how you'd stagger animations when loading a collection of cards?With Figma's current capabilities, the only workaround seems to be creating multiple frames and manually adjusting the opacity and timing for each element to simulate delayed appearance which becomes repetitive and time-consuming when applied across multiple components.Would love to know if there’s a more efficient approach or if this is something the team is planning to improve in the future.

When using Figma web on an iPad, it is possible to unintentionally move content and accidentally ruin a design because an item can be selected and moved in a single gesture. Many iPad apps including your own Figjam app solve this by requiring a tap and release gesture on an object to select it before allowing it be manipulated. Given that a single finger drag on a blank area currently invokes the selection box, please consider making this the default behavior until something has been explicitly selected. Or make it so a single finger pans the canvas like Figjam and create parity between the two.

I’d love to request enhancements on Figma AI featuresfor image generation:allow a global setting to add watermark/disclaimer to an image to mark this as generated by AI and not meant for actual live applications or sites.for copy generationrephrasing features can be as is.  when text are completely generated from scratch: allow some user control to mark it with a different color/other forms to visually distinguish what’s generated by AI use casefor companies with strict restrictions on what’s allowed on image and copy on their digital products (e.g. for medical or legal regulations), this allows reviewers and stakeholder who are looking the file to quickly distinguish what’s NOT for production.

Hello 👋 First, I’m happy about the opportunity where I can make an impact on this amazing product. My idea is pretty simple but can make a huge difference in the way we share files with stakeholders and colleagues. I suggest adding the ability to give different access (viewer/editor) for pages within a Figma file. Because in most cases, we’re trying to include a whole project, feature, or function, whether small or big, in one Figma file - it becomes a real pain-point if the lowest level of grant permissions it’s the file itself instead of the pages within the file. I’m sure a lot in this community can agree with me that many times you gave people access - it was relevant to certain areas of the file, and less to other areas. I want to give content writers access to a specific page where they can edit and review content. I want to give developers access to a specific page where they can play with responsive layers and explore edge-cases. I want to leave experiments (Some would

It would be difficult but id love to see glass pieces merging around like apples buttons

Is there a way (by code or other way) to avoid the safe areas in the mobile version?   

We’re currently exploring how we can integrate Figma Buzz into our educational resource creation workflow. We’re excited by Buzz’s potential, especially its responsive design and design quality, and are reaching out to share our feedback and some critical feature requests to help us adopt Figma more fully across our content pipeline. 💡 Our Use Case: Automated Resource GenerationOur ideal workflow looks like this: Create Figma templates with defined text/image placeholders (e.g. "Title", "Question", "Image"). Programmatically replace these placeholders via an API using content from our backend. Export the resulting designs as individual PDFs, ready to attach to educational videos. This would allow our content team to generate polished, on-brand learning materials at scale - directly from our curation tools - with minimal manual input.    🔍 Key Gaps and Friction PointsFeature Status Notes REST API for generation ❌ No current support for content generation via API.

Please make a notchless version of the prototype preview for the macbook pro 16". the notch makes Figma completely useless for website designs as it rams into the design. And that’s not the behaviour apps have under MacOS. It leaves space to hide the notch and give you a rectangular viewport.

Every time I paste the copied YouTube link where the YouTube video is supposed to start at a specific timestamp it starts from the beginning. When I paste the link into the browser the video starts in the correct spot. Has anyone else experienced this and found a way to get the link to start at the proper timestamp?Figma Desktop App version 125.5.6MacOS 15.5

I have found out that figma allows you to add links to text in the form of “mailto:example@example.com”, which allows to add a link to email addresses. However, when I try to input a link in the form of “tel:1234567890” it fails and the “Invalid link” notification comes up. I believe that this is not the indeded behaviour of the feature and it should allow users to input any kind of urls, not just web and email urls.

Ability to have image variables. E.g. for a logo you can have different variations for each mode without having to use the boolean feature and hide/show the correct image

Would be great to have: Paste (Import) a component, frame, etc. from Figma Make changes to that component or frame in Figma → Changes are synchronized with FigJam (possibly with a review)

Okay, simple request… Make me a Bluesky logo.The AI’s 1st attempt… Is that supposed to be a weird croissant?! Try again.The AI’s 2nd attemptOkay… Improvement… But like… Better…?The AI’s 3rd attemptthe hail is that?! A heart shaped with legs?! It also looked like _something else._ But… Still not the logo.The AI’s 4th attemptat this point, the other 2 versions are way much better than this.The AI’s 5th attemptYou’ve reached your current limityour credits will reset the next day, upgrade, blah, blah, blah.well, damn… The AI couldn’t even make a good Bluesky logo.

Problem: Often Fimga mirror does not connect, lags or disconnects while mirroring. Idea: If it will help solve the connection and lagging issues, could we consider enabling Figma mirror to connect with a phone cable and not only wireless connection?

As a UX Architect, I actively advocate for the importance of user experience (UX) and project-specific UX design within our cross-national project teams. Project specific UX designs play a crucial role in fostering a shared understanding across the team, helping everyone align on the product’s goals and the value it aims to deliver.One strategy I use to support this alignment is the standardized organization of UX designs on a Figma page. I’ve developed a standardized layout for structuring content on each Figma page. This layout includes: 1) Context of use, user requirements and insights, and identified pain points (left column). 2) Concept variations and the selected concept (middle column(s)). 3) UX designs, often presented in multiple versions (one column per version) (right column(s)).To maintain a professional and consistent layout, I’ve manually created a grid system using Figma rulers (see attached screenshot). However, these rulers are fragile and cannot be locked, which often

Hello, I am reaching out to express the need for a feature that allows direct duplication of pages to another file within Figma. Currently, the process of duplicating content by copying and pasting between pages is not only time-consuming but also becomes cumbersome when attempting to duplicate multiple pages to another file simultaneously. I believe a feature that enables direct page duplication to another file would significantly enhance our workflow and efficiency. Such a feature would save considerable time and effort, especially in scenarios requiring the management of large projects with multiple pages that need duplication into different files for organizational or collaborative purposes. Is there any plan to develop a feature that facilitates duplicating pages directly to another file? This functionality would be highly appreciated and could notably improve productivity and usability within Figma. Thank you for considering this request. I look forward to any updates on potentia

I had this issue where I want to hover on a drop down icon, be able to go through the options and still close the drop down without attaching a close button. I wanted the overlay to close when my mouse leave but it was still stuck. SolutionAfter linking my dropdown button to the content I wanted using (mouse enter effect), I clicked on the add interaction on the content body, dragged it to the close overlay, changed the ‘on click action’ to ‘mouse leave’

Halo semua desainer hebat!Saya dan tim sedang mengerjakan sebuah proyek desain sistem yang kami beri nama "Merge Fellas". Saat này kami gặp một masalah yang cukup membuat frustrasi dan sepertinya sangat umum, yaitu tentang varian komponen.Masalahnya adalah: Setiap kali kami mencoba menggabungkan beberapa komponen dari library tim ke dalam satu file utama, beberapa varian komponen tersebut tiba-tiba menjadi 'detach' dari komponen utamanya. Padahal, kami sudah yakin menggunakan struktur Auto Layout yang benar dan penamaan layer yang konsisten. Akibatnya, kami harus menautkan ulang properti secara manual, yang sangat memakan waktu.Kami sudah mencoba beberapa cara seperti:Memeriksa kembali penamaan layer di semua varian. Menggunakan master component dari satu sumber yang sama. Mem-publish ulang library.Namun, masalah ini tetap muncul secara acak pada beberapa komponen.Karena struktur komponen kami cukup rumit, saya sudah mendokumentasikan seluruh alur kerja, struktur layer, dan contoh vide

I have a bulleted list in my Figma file and tried to copy into Monday.com but the formatting isn’t pasting in. It comesout onone levelbut at the rightline breaks Instead of Coming out like this bulleted list So far my only fix is to re-bullet my list in Monday, or just make my lists in another place. I’ve already tried pasting into Word and using cmd+shift+c and cmd+option+c, nothing works. :( Please please please add a way to copy and keep the formatting.
