Issue: After a recent Figma Make update (approximately April 30, 2026), the application now blocks all attempts to edit .html files, incorrectly identifying them as incompatible with a "TypeScript + React application."Error Message:PreToolUse:Edit hook error: [${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/block-bad-file-extensions.js]: Blocked: This is a Typescript + React application. Please write to a TSX file instead.Impact:Cannot edit legitimate HTML files used for third-party platform integrations Breaks existing workflow that has functioned correctly for months Forces use of workarounds (command-line editing) instead of standard editing tools Affects regular maintenance tasksTechnical Details:What's Happening: The Figma Make plugin added a pre-tool-use hook (block-bad-file-extensions.js) that appears to assume all files in a Figma Make workspace should be React/TypeScript components. This hook blocks the Edit and Write tools from modifying .html files.What I've Tried:✅ Restarted Figma Make - no ef

I’m trying to find the CSS properties in dev tools for the glass effect, but can’t find any styles related to it at all. How do I share this with devs? There’s nothing as much as even a background blur mentioned. the only styles I can find are border radius and bg color, both of which I applied to my comp, and are not related to the glass effect at all. All help is much appreciated. TIA

I would like to be able to selected multiple child components which are all associated with the same parent component and edit their shared nested instance properties across all selected child components.

Hello, Credir Card is out of date payment method, especially when you ask for security code and expiry year. We do not carry the wallet any more, not even the credit card or cash.  As Chinese people in China, we have our own credit system for payment, we use AliPay or Wechat Pay, it is very concenient and safe and reliable, we just need to scan the QR codeusing our mobile phone.  Please talk to AliPay and establish your cooperation with the company, then you will have more Professional users and we are willing to pay.  Please do not let the payment method stuck our relliance Figma. Otherwise you are pushing us to have our own Figma and you will be losing us.  Thank you, Litao 

I want to share my experience with Figma subscriptions so other designers and freelancers know what to expect before paying for Pro.I purchased a Figma Pro seat for one month (around $20) specifically to complete a client project. Everything worked fine while subscribed. But after the billing period ended and I chose not to renew, I discovered something frustrating:My files became heavily restricted Editing/export access was limited I couldn’t properly continue working on my own project files Downgrading back to a normal free workflow was not straightforwardThe biggest issue is this:If a project was created while paying for Pro, users should still be able to access basic editing/export functionality afterward — especially for files that are no longer using paid-only features.For freelancers and agencies working on temporary projects, this can become a serious workflow problem because your work effectively gets held behind another payment cycle.Before buying Figma Pro, make sure you ful

There is no way to add spaces between words in typography section in Figma. There is a huge difference between letter spacing and word spacing in typography. However, we only have the ability to change the spacing of letters instead. There is even a CSS property called word-spacing. word spacing in CSS Letter spacing in CSS So can we have the simple word spacing feature added to Figma typography section

Within CSS padding spacing, it goes:Padding: TopBottom LeftRight;While figma visual editor has: Padding: LeftRight Top Bottom; 

Hello everyone!Somehow Figma design started to show tags on video in canvas. Not in jam, not in dev mode or prototype, just basic canvas.Didn’t find any options to turn it off, figma support agent didn’t help.I have no HTML tags option in right sidebar, no annotations enabled and such, how can I turn them off? 

I’d like to suggest an improvement that would streamline the design process—especially when working with components.Currently, when resizing or aligning elements, I need to press the ALT key to view spacing measurements (such as padding, margin, and distance between elements). This adds unnecessary friction, especially during frequent adjustments.My suggestion is to add a toggle in the settings that allows users to always show spacing measurements by default. This way, whenever an element is selected, its padding, margin, and size can be instantly visible—without needing to hold down a key or guess the values.This feature could be customizable. For example: Always show padding/margin/size values when selecting an element. Let users choose which measurements they want to see by default (padding, margin, width, height, etc.). This wouldn't overcomplicate the UI but would significantly increase efficiency, especially for developers, UI/UX designers, and those working with design systems

I need the option to be able to share a presentation with clients in a way that doesn’t allow for members of my team to make updates that client will see while they are reviewing. This would also be incredibly helpful for internal reviewing. This could be in allowing a link to only be updated manually and/or adding an additional layer of permissions. Generally my pain points are: Designers have accidently make updates to a working file and it threw off clients who were actively reviewing the work and added confusion My company uses Page Proof for internal routing already but our clients are happy to use Figma to give us feedback. I need to be able to facilitate internal conversations around client feedback without the client seeing the discussion. Page Proof allows links which works well with Figma, but if the designer forgets to make a duplicate page the comments don’t align with the prototype anymore. Duplicating pages to “archive” rounds is cluttering my files If there are better

The way that it works already when selecting fonts from the menu for text without a class applied

We’ve been moving toward a D2C workflow, and we found that component documentation is great context for AI, so we’re starting to put specs and behavior definitions there.The problem is that we also want this to work as shared documentation for designers and engineers, but right now it’s not very visible in either Design Mode or Dev Mode, so people may never discover it.Annotations could help surface it, but since they can’t display the documentation directly yet, the only workaround is to duplicate the content there—which breaks the single source of truth.Therefore, it would be helpful if annotations could directly surface linked documentation content.

Hey We’re in a situation where different billing groups have different billing contacts but that's not possible, so right now it's manually to send the billing out to the right people for every quarter. Also… billing groups don't support billing possibilities. so even though they are grouped like the bill is split it is just a hallucinated separation of billing. why even bother then? please fix

I don’t use Figma every day. I don’t want it to open every time I boot my computer. This is a very annoying user experience. I don’t want to have to remove it from system settings every time I Figma updates. Perhaps, you should stop adding it to my system settings every time there is an update. I don’t want Figma to open every time I boot my computer. You are forcing me to open an application that I don’t want open when I boot my computer. This is a terrible user experience. I know other designers are annoyed by this as well. Stop adding it to my system settings every time Figma updates. It’s just dumb that Figma does this. I will use Figma when I need it.

Hello Figma team & community !While working on our design system on Figma, I’m facing an issue with organizing my pages. There are so many and I would love to be able to categories them into folders that can be toggled like this for example : Do you have this already in your backlog ? I must not be the only one to dream of it 😅 Thank you !

Hi,I’ve encountered this bug testing out slots.  I’ve created a desktop component with a slot that uses components and both have variable widths for desktop and mobile. If I drag that instance with slotted components into a frame/section that’s set to mobile it will shrink down, but if I drag it out, the slotted components remain mobile size.Attached is a screenshot of the discrepancy.The instance functions perfectly fine if I manually set the desktop/mobile modes through the appearance panel though. Ps. I love the possibility of slots and can’t wait when it’s out of beta.

 Hi Figma Team,I’d like to suggest a feature improvement around managing shared design system files.Problem:In our team, multiple designers have edit access to the design system file. This sometimes leads to accidental or unintended changes, and it becomes difficult to track or control who modified key components. Even with version history, identifying and managing these changes is time-consuming.Suggestion:It would be helpful to have an option to “lock” a file (or specific pages/components) to prevent editing by default.Some possible approaches: Ability to lock a file so only selected users can edit Restrict editing of specific components/pages within a file Optional approval flow when someone tries to make changes Temporary unlock option for maintainers Why this helps:This will ensure better control over design systems, prevent accidental edits, and improve consistency across teams while still allowing collaboration.Thanks for considering this!

I’d like to suggest adding a native option in Figma to mirror (flip) an image directly within its image settings.Currently, when working with components, if I need to mirror an image inside a card, I have to flip the entire card to achieve that effect. This becomes especially problematic when the card is a component, as it interferes with layout, constraints, and overall usability.As a workaround, I’ve been manually mirroring images outside of Figma (on my computer) before importing them back into the component. However, this adds unnecessary friction to the workflow and slows down iteration.Having a simple “flip horizontal / vertical” control within the image properties would make the process much more efficient, especially when working with reusable components and design systems. Thank you!

We create and share our design system components with the whole company and we’d like to have a more rigorous process when we publish modifications of the Figma file. If the publish description would be required instead of optional, designers could not forget to add a description to their modifications anymore.

Sections are useful for organising the canvas. However, when I want to keep editing things within a section I keep selecting and moving the section accidentally. Therefore, I would like to be able to lock the section position without locking the elements within the section.

I’m often facing this problem. When I tried to resize the layers panel, it sometimes accidentally dragged the slide which is really annoying. Furthermore, the cursor hitbox for resizing the layers panel is too narrow (it’s really on the edge of the layers size) so that the cursor turns into vertical double-sided arrow. I hope Figma can figure out to fix the layers panel resizing issue. 

Hi Figma Support,We are a SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) vendor that integrates with Figma to help our mutual enterprise customers gain visibility into their Figma environment.Current situation:We're integrating with Figma's SCIM API and need to clarify the behavior of GET /scim/v2/{org_id}/Users.Two questions: If an organization uses SCIM for provisioning, can admins still create/invite users directly in Figma (outside of SCIM)? If yes — does GET /scim/v2/{org_id}/Users return all organization members, or only those that were provisioned through SCIM? We need a complete user directory for security posture management. If SCIM only returns SCIM-provisioned users, is there any other API endpoint that returns all org members?Thanks!

I have a numeric input field as a component, and its value is set as a text property called value. Pretty simple stuff, right?For prototyping reasons, I want to bind this field's value to a number variable, so I can add/subtract to this value when I press a button somewhere else on the screen. Also pretty simple stuff, right? Well, apparently not. Turns out I just found out that we can't bind number variables to text properties for whatever reason — they don't even show on search results. And since there's no component property of type number, this simple prototyping scenario I'm trying to achieve appears to be impossible. Meanwhile, if I simply remove the value property from my component, then select the plain text layer with the value and try to bind it to my number variable, voilá — now it works. Except it doesn't, because now all my fellow designers will have to manually select and edit their numeric input field's values every time they use this component.So my suggestion here is e

My userflow is large, when I make it in FigJam then export it took 45k x 4k pixel to Figma, Figma design cap it on 4k for exporting image, so my imported png looked pixelated into oblivion. Could you Figma team make it seamless to add connector in Figma design like it was in FigJam? I just want to show my userflow in my portfolio in Figma design before upload it into Figma site.
