Hello,I am looking to create a good hero section for my site, where it should take the height of browser in the first fold. The subsequent sections can be of fixed heights based on content. I need something like 100vh to have for my hero section.

It’s quite useful to have the option to put the inside stroke as included or excluded as part of auto layout.That said, almost every web project I’ve worked on in the past 10 years starts with a global CSS rule of * { box-sizing: border-box; } … which effectively translates to every single auto-layout object needing “Inside stroke: excluded”.The option to set this as a default (as globally as you’d like: User, Team, Project, or File) would be a huge time saver. Along with “Canvas stacking,” I am constantly updating this as I create new elements - the only workaround for now is to always duplicate an existing item to inherit the previous setting.

It’s incredibly annoying to make this disappear. Just let me hit ESC. Please. It slows me down so much. 

I’d love to have the ability to use Figma Motion in Figma Buzz to more easily build animated ad templates for me growth / performance marketing teams. Allow us to create motion ad templates with moving copy / text boxes / product imagery etc that let folks swap imagery without a designer. Current motion ads are the toughest part of our workflow when running a paid campaign - we’re creating them separately and it would be fantastic to have that in one place! Given that most ads have relatively simple motion requirements, it feels like a no-brainer to allow teams to integrate that work into a template too.

Hi - I need to use Code Connect CLI to properly map our codebase, and I would like to be able to set instructions for the MCP to ensure the agent asks the user about certain details like aria labels and functionality requirements and to suggest values to confirm with the user. However, the Add Instructions to MCP button disappears when I use the CLI mappings, and Claude claims that it’s not possible to add MCP instructions through the CLI. Is this true? If so, it would be very helpful if I could set MCP instructions on a per-component basis through the CLI. 

Subject: Feature Request: Show Variable Usage Count Hello Figma Team 👋,I have a small suggestion that could improve designers' productivity.Please add a usage count for each Variable (Design Token) in the Variables panel. This would show how many times a variable is being used, so designers can quickly understand which variables are in use and which are not.This would help with:Finding unused variables Cleaning up design systems Avoiding accidental deletion of used variables Saving time when managing tokensI'm attaching a screenshot for reference.I would be happy if you could reply to my feedback.Thank you, and Happy Figma! 🎨✨Zahid

Problem:When a Figma frame contains a video, GIF, or prototype animation, exporting it as PNG/JPG loses the motion. Currently, designers often need to use external tools or screen-record the prototype.Suggested feature:When a frame contains video, GIF, or animated interactions, add MP4 and GIF as export formats.Export options:PNG JPG SVG PDF MP4 🎬 GIF 🔄Suggested UXWhen clicking Export, Figma could automatically detect whether the frame contains animated content.Export as:○ PNG○ JPG○ SVG○ PDF○ MP4○ GIFFor MP4/GIF, provide:Duration: Entire prototype / Custom Resolution: 1× / 2× / 3× Frame rate: 24 / 30 / 60 FPS GIF: Loop / Play once MP4: Include audio / mute⭐ Extra opportunityA particularly useful option would be:“Export prototype flow as video”Instead of exporting just one frame, designers could select a prototype starting point and Figma would record the entire interaction flow as an MP4/GIF.That would be extremely useful for portfolio case studies, presentations, social media, desig

Hi there everyone,The tab bar has been annoying me for a long time now and I was wondering why it won't get fixed. Currently, if you have a lot of tabs open (don't tell me I shouldn't do that, I know I can handle it, don't worry about me), you cannot really navigate through them because scrolling is not possible, grouping is not a thing and the tab button on the right shows some magic order of the tabs which is not the same order they are shown in the regular tab bar.May I suggest a few improvements?Make the tab bar scrollable, seems like an easy and quick fix, a lot of apps do this these days. Make grouping possible (with expanding/collapsing), a lot of apps do this too. Make the order of the tabs after clicking the tab button match the order of the files (left to right should be top to bottom).I noticed that a lot of people have already requested this in a way, and all of those topics seem to have been closed. Please fix this issue for us power users (that actually do remember where

Hello! There used to be an awesome feature in Figma—the prompt history—that allowed you to see all the prompts and easily return to them. Now it’s gone, and we’re all quite upset: we lose context, it’s hard to repeat solutions, and work efficiently. Please bring back this capability or suggest an alternative. Thank you!

As a designer I would like to record my prototype screen or export it as a gif so I can use it in presentations and send quick examples in the team group. It would be great to have the same feature then Principle to record or export the prototype to gif. Does anyone have the same need? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

My team has encountered some issues working with non-designers that would be really helpful to fix if Slides and Buzz had a few more features they could access. Listing below the features that I think should exist in both Design mode and Slides/Buzz mode: Layers Panel Our users have trouble navigating auto layouts we create, especially when there are multiple nested within each other or within a group. Having access to the layers panel to select, remove, duplicate or lock/unlock objects would be really helpful for them If there was a way for designers to lock objects with certain permissions (i.e. can change the text but can’t change the X,Y positions, can move the object but can’t resize it, can unlock some objects but not others), that would help us maintain design control while still providing flexibility for non-designers Position/Layout Settings Users in Slides/Buzz mode don’t have a way to manually set Width, Height or Rotation controls. Given that these controls are availabl

 File-level permissions within shared foldersThe new nested folder structure is great, but there’s a massive (& massively frustrating) permissions gap: it seems file permissions can’t be more restrictive than the permissions inherited from the parent folder.Our team has edit access to a shared folder, so every file within that folder is editable by the entire team and ppl can add folders & files as needed. There’s currently no way to make an individual file view-only without moving it outside of the shared folder structure.This is a critical use case for master files, templates, brand guidelines & other source-of-truth files. These need to live alongside working files and be accessible to the broader team, but should be protected from accidental edits.It’s essential to support file-level permission overrides that can restrict access below the parent folder level to a nested folder or individual file (Folder = Edit access → File = View-only)Being able to share a folder broad

Hi! Posting to see if there are there any plans to let Buzz Mode users do the following:Change their workspace background color from the default light grey We’ve made some editable assets that need to have white text, so it’s pretty hard for people to read white on the light grey background. Edit text sizes We have many use cases where we’d like to let marketers manually adjust text to approved sizes by themselves without having to be involved each time their text flows outside the text box and disappears.

As editor and maybe also as viewer I want to be able to see where specific components are used. So I’m basically talking about way to find instances of a component across files. There’s a plugin called “Instance Finder” but unfortunately it’s just working within one file not across. For huge design systems with multiple files and different designers working on it this is far from ideal. This idea is not new but since the other topics are closed I guess I need to open a new thread. See: Searching for component instance in a view-only file Ask the community I am a manager of the design system library in my org and I am trying to find instances of components in other designer files via the Org Libraries options, to see how components are being used. Clicking on a component takes me to the design file, but it doesn’t link to the frame where the component is used, which is what I would expect (even if it’s used in multiple instances, I would want to see at least o

I really need adaptive font sizing for text inside fixed-size text boxes, especially for Buzz.Here’s the use case:We create a creative for social media. We then create multiple sizes of that creative using auto-layout, constraints, etc. After that, we generate Bulk Create versions in different languages.The challenge is that text length varies significantly between languages - for example, French is often much longer, while Japanese can be much more compact.It would be incredibly helpful if the font size could automatically adapt to fit the fixed text box, similar to how text behaves in PowerPoint or Keynote.This feature would save a huge amount of time and effort, especially when working with multi-language creatives at scale. I believe many teams would benefit from this.Thanks in advance — really looking forward to this improvement. 🙂

I lost a key edit to a file, undo wouldn’t recover it. I found it in the version history.Hard to find Couldn’t restore the edit. I found it, but I couldn’t copy and paste it. I hit recover, but it would glitch up and go back to the other edit when I closed it.End result, I had to finish a rush item by cropping a screenshot, not by restoring it in Figma, even though I could see the edit I wanted to restore and tried for 15 minutes.Serious concerns about stability of product after seeing this.

I would love to be able to change the default fill / stroke color / and corner rounding of sections within Figma. I find myself spending a lot of time adjusting sections after initial creation to the way I like them throughout my files.

ngl, the new ui3 is pretty good. the only thing i dont like is the toolbar position. im still not used to it. maybe add an option to move it to the top?

Need this feature for icebreakers in workshop please.

Feature request: Selectively expose deeply nested instance propertiesAllow component authors to expose properties from a deeply nested instance—such as an Icon inside an Icon-circle—without also exposing the intermediate Icon-circle instance.This would keep components linked and updateable while making the instance properties panel cleaner and easier to use.

Illustrative exampleLeft: Get states from keyframes | Right: dynamic state from first and last keyframeYo! It would be cool to use animations as states for a component. For example, indicators might have a slider to demonstrate dynamic states between 0-100. Also, it would be a nice option to “bake” a state from a certain keyframe or moment on the timeline if needed for “key” states of the component.Thank you for Motion in Figma!

I’d love for the pages within a file to each have version history, same as the whole file does. We use 50+ pages in one file and it’s disappointing to not be able to see what/when last made changes were created in a specific page, and it’s impossible to know or see what changed in the file version history. Separate files for each thing would create a huge library, so our team uses one single file as source of truth and create pages within each section. Page version history would help us see what is outdated and who made any last changes per page.

Level Indicator with variable width (stroke)Yo! It would be cool to animate the stroke with variable width too.Thank you for Motion in Figma!
