It would be nice if I could quickly open pages in my design file in a new tab. Often pages contain designs that would be useful to view side by side with the current page you are working on. It would be nice if I could quickly open them in a new tab / new window instead of having to go back to files, open the file, wait for it to load and then navigate to the page.

Currently, using Figma component boolean properties, it only shows when true and hides when false. What if you could switch those around? For example, when something is true, it could show some elements, and hide others. For example, a product thumbnail- when “on sale” is true, show sale icon, show strikethrough price, but also hide original price and replace it with a bolded/colorful/what have you of price. Or if ‘Out of Stock’ is true, show all the ‘out of stock’ stuff material, but also hide the ‘add to cart’ button. Stuff like that. Currently you have to create new variants just to show + hide things at the same time, or add redundant switches like ‘In Stock’ and ‘Out of Stock’ and just make sure they never have the same state.

We just opted in for 2 seats on the professional plan.  We find it disappointing that we can’t monitor our remaining AI credits.We have no idea how many credits we used yesterday, and have no sense at all of how much we can accomplish with the credits we purchased.The AI itself has been very impressive.  To obfuscate the AI credits to this degree is a big disservice to your users. 

I’d like to insert an image into a cell in a table in FigJam so that it moves with the table as it expands and changes size. Currently, I’m just having to drag pictures around with the table as it expands which is fine for one or two images but I have many!

DEV mode is useful for getting pixel-perfect implementation, but the problem occurs when we try to implement animations, as then developers need to eyeball the animation curves and durations, or record screen and review frame by frame, impacting effectiveness. It would be very useful to analyse or view animation information so implementation work would be smoother.

Hi All, we currently use the swap library feature for our styles. We were wondering tho if there is going to be support for swapping variables in the future as well? I know that Figma is currently working on extended collections, but the current omission of swapping variables based on a different library seems a bit weird

Hello Figma Support Team,I have been using the new Figma Make AI feature to generate designs, but I am unable to connect these files to Bravo Studio (and other third-party integrations) because: The files created via Make AI are saved as /make/ links, even after moving or duplicating them into my team/project. Bravo Studio (and most Figma plugins or APIs) require a /file/ URL to recognize and import the design. Even after attempting to move, duplicate, or export/import the file within the team/project, the file remains stuck as a /make/ link, not a /file/ link. This severely limits the usability of Make AI-generated designs in any real-world development or handoff workflow.Steps to reproduce: Generate a new design using Figma Make AI. Move or duplicate the file into a Team or Project (on Starter/free plan). Right-click and “Copy link” – link is always in /make/ format, never /file/. Try to use the link in Bravo Studio – receives “file not found or no permission” error. Expect

Right now, Figma Make Design or Generate UI are great at producing static frames or visual mockups, but they stop short of creating true, reusable master components with variants, properties, and auto layout built in.What would be game-changing is if we could describe a component in natural language — like:“Create a Tree Selector component with four nesting levels, checkboxes with all states (checked, unchecked, mixed, disabled, default), a search bar, and expandable/collapsible interactions. Include Auto Layout, variants, and locked states.”…and Figma’s AI would generate a fully structured component set, not just the visuals.

I am trying to export an entire figma make prototype to figma designs. It seems crazy to have to do this screen by screen when there is so much embedded functionality (modals, tabs etc). Is there plan to do this in the future? Or am I missing something 😅 Thank you!

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 this get more attention here.

variables可以导入Excel文件，这样可以支持多语言切换，并且具体的String value 里面可以允许你折行

Hi Figma team, I’m using Figma Make, and I managed to create a beautiful delivery app, even though I’m just an ordinary food delivery rider with no coding experience. While building the app, I tested other connected apps, like the rider and admin versions, multiple times. However, I had to switch to another browser to view them through /?app=rider and /?app=admin. It would be very convenient if you could provide a shortcut for accessing these linked apps, like rider and admin. Thank you for creating such a helpful and wonderful platform! 

Is it possible to obtain a free subscription to the Professional package for non-profit organizations, and what evidence is required for this? Thank you for your response!

Hey @figma you know what would be dope? Having the image field as a component property allowing us to just replace the image without having to go into the layers…even better if it would save the fit or fill setting

I know there was an update to hide the email in the share popup, but for invitees only. At that time we still see email from who request to view or edit.But now it’s gone. This siIIy dump 4ss UI! Why the heII do you think you should remove the email from the requesters?My company restrict employees to use external email to view internal files. In this UI I can not indicate which email he is using, or even is he one of my colleagues.***_- PLEASE REVERT NOW -_***

I would like to share an idea: I thought it would be great if there was a good text editor here where you could effectively make up text, also create an aesthetic design when making up text, and generally create full-fledged documents. In general, it is an analog of MS Word, but with plugins and the ability to decorate the document with a cool design.Question: if it's not a secret, do you have any aspirations in the future to create a platform that would be an analog of MS Word here at Figma? I do not know what it should look like in all the details, however, I have written 3 main ideas: text layout, creating a design for documents, and creating the documents themselves as a whole.

Is there a way to keep a string variable aligned with a color variable HEX code, either through aliasing or by another method? For example: Color Variable |Key | Value| |myColorVar | #FFFFFF| String Variable |Key | Value| |myStringVar | myColorVar variable| myStringVar = “#FFFFFF” Use case: It would be nice for documentation to be able to automatically keep written HEX colour codes aligned with changes to the colour variables they are documenting. Thanks for the help!!

Am I missing something? ive already have a few prototype to be exactly how I wanted and flows. Is there a way to get Figma Make to build the already made in Figma Prototype for me so I can iterirate with Figma Make from here?Otherwise if my design journey starts with Figma Make first, its going to do something I don’t want and will have to spend too much time to debug (I mean its good for ideation or quick concept validation but I want to take approved prototype workflow further and iterate from there)

Love the new Typography Variable release, but it falls short for our use case. Our goal is to use variable modes to switch styles between our 3 brands. 2 of those brands use all caps for headings, the other brand uses sentence case. We need to be able to bind a variable to the case of a character style (As typed, Uppercase, Lowercase, Title case, Small caps). Without this capability, when switching modes from brand 1 to brand 2 for example, we are getting the default case for the character style (sentence case coming from brand 1). We would then have to go through our designs and manually type in all caps for all instances of headings in brands 2 and 3. Certainly not ideal and will lead to inconsistencies / places where manually typing in all caps are missed if we went this route. Until binding a variable to the case of a character style is an option, using typography variables isn’t feasible for our use case.

Is it possible to view a user’s drafts as an Enterprise admin or a Team admin?As an admin I really should be able to view all files that have been created, but it seems that user’s drafts are still private even after the update.

Is it possible to change default font in Figma? (from Inter to Mardoto)

Toolbar should be able to change its position at the very least. Hotkey users don’t ever need it. Eyes naturally look more to the bottom of the page, and now this useful space is taken by some garbage icons 🙃 The overall redesign is also questionable. I would also support all the complaints about font size, unnecessary gaps between control panels and the edge of a page. May be it looks more “comfortable” for new users, but keep in mind that you have a lot of professionals who use Figma for a long time already, and they want a reliable tool that doesn’t mutate under their hands so they can keep working fast.

I know that I can export as SVG from draw.io and then drag and drop in FigJam but this does not allow me to edit. I would like to import a flowchart from draw.io in an editable format. Thanks.

Pretty simple ask: I want to move a page from one Figma to another. I don’t see a way to do it. Select All + Cut + Paste is not a good solution as I might have locked objects that don’t come with the copy and there might be properties set on the page (background color, etc.) that I might lose.
