In Figjam - When adding a new node from an existing one, Holding down SHIFT (or any reasonable hotkey) should reverse the arrow to point in to the current node.This will reduce/ eliminate the work to reverse the arrows while making diagrams.
How can I view Figma prototypes on my mobile, or is that currently only for web desktop?When I copy the share link and open in on my mobile, it opens up in a very small view and completely unusable on phone.
SummaryExpose presenter notes as a read/write property on SlideNode in the Plugin API, so plugins and MCP servers can programmatically get and set presenter notes for Figma Slides.Proposed APIinterface SlideNode { // ... existing properties ... presenterNotes: string // read/write access to the slide's presenter notes}Use CaseI'm using the figma-slides-mcp server to create and edit Figma Slides presentations programmatically from AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.). The MCP server can already create slides, set text, clone templates, reorder slides, and take screenshots, all through the Plugin API.The one important gap is presenter notes. When generating a slide deck programmatically, the presenter notes (speaker script, talking points, timing cues) are often as important as the content on the slides (I use the presenter notes as teleprompter scripts in my online classes when I’m giving recorded lectures). Right now there is no way to set them. SlideNode has no presenterNot
Some quick context: I recently created a basic Figma slides template. After using the template & theme to create an actual presentation, I identified some new slides that I would like to include into the original template. When copy pasting the slides that used the template into the original template file, it created a duplicate template with the same name for the slides that were pasted in, even though they used the original theme of the template. The main issue I have here is that when swapping the template to the original, it randomly shuffles the colors. So I have to adjust the entire slide. I feel like updating templates over time based on real usage is pretty common, and the current behavior makes it rather awkward. Thanks!
I want to pay for the design of the Figma Make AI, but I don't want to pay for the subscription, as I'm not a web designer and I don't think I'll be using Figma for any other projects anytime soon.That's why I need to know if it's possible to pay only for the finished product and not the monthly/annual fee.Thanks in advance,
I'm using a chat agent to prototype my designs. But currently in Figma mobile app, it only allow me to view and comment on my canvas. I cannot select the frame and share the frame link to my chat agent as a reference for vibe coding. The workaround of request desktop app from Browser crashes all the time. Please enable the feature to be compatible with the recent AI trends.
Why figma do not copy comments with page or element. when i copy some object that have client comment or feedback.
it’s been months since this issue above was reported and asked, and i saw a solution here however it’s too tedious and it’s not even responsive. i also have to create it on each page. When would devs add overlay feature on figma sites? overlay is such a basic animation on all sites. i only have free tier for school is the overlay feature locked behind a paywall?
Currently, in Figma Make, the code versioning shows only the line counts added or removed (+/-), butdoes not allow viewing the actual lines of code that changed between versions. To review codechanges, developers have to restore old versions, which risks losing progress.Feature Request:- Add a “diff view” for code files, showing added/removed/changed lines similar to GitHub or VSCode.- Keep the diff view read-only so restoring is optional.- Optional: support side-by-side diff view for easier review.Benefit:This would make code reviews in Figma Make safer and faster, reducing the need to restore oldversions and potentially lose work.
Figma Team, Data Scientists like me are praying for you guys to develop a data visualization node! you’re missing so much by not providing so. Power BI, Tableau and the other softwares are so square in design and usability terms. I’ve been copy pasting my charts into Figma for the past month and you guys are definitely a level up if we talk about presentation.
As a grad student a data visualization tool is so needed! I love using Figma for all things deliverable-wise but I desperately need a better data viz interface to create meaningful artifacts. I’m currently pixel pushing my way through building my own graphs and bar charts. Figma, please help your beloved grad students!! <3
Currently auto layout arranges layers from bottom up, i.e. the lower most layer in the layers list appears on top of every other layer on the workspace. This creates two problems 1. Confusion There’s a clear confusion of the order of layers shown in the layers menu and the representation in the workspace. This requires a bit of getting used to 2. Effects like drop shadow don’t work like they are expected to Applying a drop shadow to layer 1 does not cast the shadow on layer 2 And applying a drop shadow to layer 2 casts a shadow over the top layer 1 The Order in the layer menu should be reversed. Does anybody else see merit in this? Update: The same logic applies to horizontal auto-layouts. The right most element is on top whereas the left most element should be on top majorly because we scan left to right hence the element on the lleft most extremity is to be scanned first. for example: Say we require a stack of layers to be shown which shuffles on drag It would make more sense to
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
The main source of inspiration for this idea was to match the keyboard shortcuts themselves to different keyboard layouts. Right now, users who don’t use US keyboards have to memorize the location of the keys, rather than to use the actual character location to be able to use the shortcuts. Those involving this region are primarily the case: ABNT2 layout (Brazil). And here’s an example of confusing shortcuts: Although this problem could be solved by just rebinding the shortcuts to the actual character and not the location on the keyboard, I’ve noticed there are some other issues concerning key bindings. On this forum post, a member of the community asked for help on backing one layer level with a different shortcut from what Figma has right now. This makes the user adapt their workflow to the tool, and not the other way around — and that hinders efficiency. It would be nice if the tool itself provided some sort of customization on this regard. Although being a workaround, Mac users c
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
Figma currently offers a keyboard shortcut to hide the layers panel (CMD + SHIFT + \ ) or all UI (CMD + \ ) but no keyboard support to just hide the right panel (Design, Prototype, Inspect) For me the layers panel can often be more important to retain than the right panel. Anyone else want this feature?
Feature Suggestion: Per-Account Color Customization in WindowsProblem Users who work with multiple accounts simultaneously (e.g., different profiles, tenants, or environments) often struggle to visually distinguish between them. This increases the risk of performing actions in the wrong account.Proposed Solution Introduce a feature that allows users to assign a unique color theme to each account. The selected color would be consistently applied across key UI elements such as:- Window title bars - Accent color highlights - Taskbar indicators - App frames or borders Key Benefits - Reduces user errors when switching between accounts - Improves visual clarity and context awareness - Enhances productivity for users managing multiple environments - Provides a simple, intuitive way to differentiate sessions Example Use Cases - Personal vs. work account - Production vs. staging environment - Multiple client accounts Optional Enhancements - Automatic color assignment per account
We definitely need these, until every Styling option that can be applied to text in Figma is added to the great new variables options, it’s not usable as a complete UI system. Text decoration values like underline, slashed, uppercase, are all vital parts of out text style system. Would love to see these be added along with REM/EM support or at the very least percentage support for Line Height & Letter Spacing.
When working on complex prototypes, I often reuse interactions (e.g. animation curves) across screens or steps. In order to do this, I have to manually rebuild them each time. This requires a lot of work - selecting the interaction where I used my custom curves last time, open the interaction panel, copy the custom curves, go to the new interaction I want to apply the same curves to, open the interaction panel, select “custom”, and paste. It would be great if a) I could copy & paste interactions or b) I could leverage an “Interaction Design System” and apply custom values in the same way I can apply custom colors, typography styles, etc. Has anyone else found an easier way to do this that I’m missing or is there a plugin to manage this? 🙌🏼
Problem:When admin remove person from organization, drafts of this person move to Unassigned drafts.Idea:It would be very helpful to have notification about unassigned draft, with Move function, so Admin can check drafts in the process of removing user from organization. In admin panel tab show and filter by name of Admin who removed member from organization. Current situation is that unassigned drafts (with deleted accounts) shows in Admin panel tab with lack of informations (only name, mail, date of deletion, number of files). Admins can't see workspace or teams to connect drafts with projects/ topics).Only possible way is manual investigation of deleted memebers and set workaround workflow during member management.I looked at the learn page about unassigned drafts before: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/4420549259799-Manage-drafts-of-removed-users
It is annoying when I have to libraries connected to my project, but it always autosuggests the wrong library when selecting another text style. I want it to show me the selection of text styles from the library that the text is already using – not text styles from the other library. This happens also when selecting color. This issue wasn't an issue before. As you can see in the video attached, the library I want based on the component selected is collapsed. I want to library that is already used for the object in question to be expanded.
Dear Figma Team,I hope you're doing well.I would like to share a suggestion regarding the prototype experience in Figma, specifically within the presentation view.Currently, when presenting a prototype, if we need to adjust settings such as selecting or changing the mock device frame, we are required to switch back to the workspace. This interrupts the flow of presentation and affects the overall seamless experience—especially during client demos or usability reviews.It would be incredibly helpful if prototype settings (like device frame selection and related display options) could also be accessible directly within the presentation window or tab. This would allow designers to make quick adjustments on the go without leaving presentation mode, making the experience smoother and more efficient.Such an enhancement would greatly improve usability and streamline workflows for designers who frequently present interactive prototypes.Thank you for considering this suggestion. I truly apprecia
Can we have it so there is an option in settings which would automatically activate Mirror instead of having the user tap some button to activate it?I use the Mirror feature 99% of the time that I’m using the Figma Mobile app - I know I’m not alone. It’s getting pretty tiring tapping on the little “Mirror” button in the notice every time, or in the nav. Wish it would just automatically switch to Mirror if I wanted it to.
I just want to copy a single section I need on Figma Make instead of the whole site which is taking longer time and many layout errors occurring (lacking of UI elements, especially the animated elements)
There are several collections hidden behind the expand buttons without any clear indication in the UI.It took me a few minutes to find hidden collections. It’d be great to add more affordance somewhere so that a new team member knows there are hidden collections under “Variables” window.
