As a consumption side of the design system in Figma, it is very hard to realize there’s more information inside the component descriptions. It is like, I didn’t know the team has link documentation there that’s useful for my designs.  It is hard to know that a couple of text lines are clickable and that they contain more than just text. 

The user story is as simple as “As a user of figma design when using the AI tools such as `boost resolution`, `edit image`, `remove background`, I would like to hear a sound feedback when the job is done, so I can do something else while waiting for it to complete and be more productive” I don’t know you guys, but I like the AI features a Lot, and I’ve been working a lot specially with the edit image for videogame placeholder assets (it’s amazing), but I just don’t want to stare a the screen for a 2 minutes doing nothing, I would like to leave it working and do something else. I hope this is a super simple feature you guys can make, it would be good :)

Hello, I’d like to raise what I believe is a very reasonable and long-overdue request.Figma is a professional tool, widely used across design and development teams, and charged at a premium rate. Yet, it lacks a fundamental feature for UI design validation: the ability to float a frame or image in a transparent window above other apps, such as a mobile simulator.This is an essential need when comparing a design with a live implementation, particularly in mobile development. Tools like Overlay (which is currently unreliable), ScreenFloat, or even basic screenshots partially solve this—but these are third-party workarounds for something that should be native to Figma.I’m surprised this hasn’t been addressed yet. It would be extremely useful to: Export or pin a frame as a semi-transparent floating window. Overlay it on top of a running app or simulator to check pixel precision. Adjust opacity and t

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.

SummaryEnable Figma Make users to preconfigure the default code output framework (e.g., Angular, Vue, React) and set organizational coding guidelines that are automatically applied when generating code.ProblemCurrently, Figma Make defaults to generating React code. While prompts can be used to switch frameworks or enforce custom rules, this adds repetitive manual steps for every session. Our teams have established rules and standards (framework choice, naming conventions, linting rules, accessibility standards, etc.) that we want consistently applied from the start.Impact Designers and developers must repeatedly remind the system of our preferred framework and rules. Inconsistencies can arise if someone forgets or phrases the prompt differently. Slows down adoption because teams want their code to be generated within their established ecosystem by default.

I'm so pissed off by FIGMA MAKE!!FIGMA MAKE used to be very smart, quickly understanding any requirements I asked for. Lately, however, it's been incredibly clumsy! I've been given a lot of requirements and then constantly making random changes. I find this experience incredibly poor! I'm so angry!

Hey there, I’ve created a branch and added a component to our library. So far so good. Then I accidently moved an instance of a component a bit, so that in the “Branch Review”, it says “Node Reordered, Position, Rotation, or Scale changed”. And yes, that’s true. Even though, nothing has changed. I missed to it CMD + Z to revert it, so now when I want to merge, I have to merge it even if I don’t want, and then push a library update of this modified pattern. My suggestion would be the same as we can do it in VS Code for example. Before commiting something, you have the ability to “Discard changes” meaning that all the changes you made in this commit will be removed and the component will be in it’s main branch position/state. That would be helpful for not having to merge something you don’t want/did only for testing purposes.

Before: After:I want the edge I’m adjusting (the right edge) to snap to grid. So the answer is not “Turn off Snap to Grid”. Figma, when the user is making an adjustment to A, just make adjustment A. Do not go head and make adjustments to other random things B, C, D...

Hi there,I’d like to propose a feature that allows individual sections to exist within a parent section, with the ability to collapse and expand them via an accordion-like function. The default state would be closed—similar to an index—so that child sections are only visible when expanded.Currently, it’s challenging to guide developers to the correct layers because the default open view doesn’t always reveal all sub-sections, which can make navigation and referencing less intuitive. This feature would help improve clarity and streamline collaboration.

Please kindly add native support for custom-assignable keyboard shortcuts within the Desktop App. I currently cannot add any custom keys and our workflows would be greatly improved with this essential feature. Thank you! 🙏🏼🌊Computer: Mac Studio M1 | OS 15.3.1

When selecting semantic tokens/variables for colors, you can’t search by section name—this is a HUGE MISS. For example, if I need a color for inputs and type “inputs,” in the color selector, the system doesn’t surface the variables you’ve grouped under that section. That feels like an obvious expectation. On top of that, actually locating these colors is incredibly frustrating when selecting a color. Whenever I’m building something new in a complex design system, this becomes one of the biggest pain points. It’s like there wasn’t any UX done for this. 

In a Design file I can create structure and hierarchy for my font styles by using a naming convention that leverages a “/”. However, even if it’s the same naming convention, this doesn’t result in the same outcome in Slides (in Design. Mode or Slides Mode). In a Slide file in Slide mode, I see the whole name in a list with no hierarchy applied. In a Slide file in Design Mode, I just see a list with no hierarchy in the dropdown + the prefix before the “/” is cut off. But then when I select it… it shows up in the panel… It’d be great to haver a similar behavior in Slides as in a native Design file… 

Currently, when working in Libraries, Figma picks up changes and in the modal to Publish, you are basically forced to Publish any changes that Figma picks up. There’s no way to “reject” those changes. This adds a layer of complexity because Figma doesn’t say how things got changed, it just says that something changed. So often times, we’re not sure why Figma is saying it got changed when visually things look the same. We also keep our editor list rather small but it happens often where I log in the morning, see there are changes, ask the team did anyone make changes, and they all say no they didn’t do anything. From that point on, there’s nothing to do but publish those changes which has negative downstream effects to our entire design org who uses our libraries. They see that they need to update their libraries but for no good reason. We do add comments when we publish so we have to say stuff like nothing actually changed, Figma is just picking up changes when there are none

It looks like impossible to change the gradient direction?  the gradient is popping over where i have to drag it from and i can’t find out how to change it 

can we have option to switch from desktop, tablet and mobile when prototyping from figma design, similar to figma sites 

Just putting this suggestion here for the ability to indicate what symbol / value to add to the end of truncated text instead of just the ellipsis (...)Technically there is support for this in code via the text-overflow CSS property, so it might be good to also bring that functionality within Figma Design.Additionally, hoping it could also be possible to change the way text is truncated, where we wouldn't be limited to just text lines, and have the ability to switch to set the truncation via number of characters in the text layer.

 안녕하세요. 초보자가 “MAKE”에서 웹을 개발하다 보면 너무나 많은 버전 히스토리로 인해 웹페이지 로딩이 느려지고 있습니다. 이미 FIGMA 팀의 도움을 한번 받은적이 있는데,앞으로 자주 사용하다 보면 매번 FIGMA 팀에 도움을 요청하기가 부담스러울것 같기도 하고,시간적인 소요도 제법 있는것 같습니다. 사용자가 스스로 버전 히스토리를 삭제 할수 있는 기능을 구현하는건 어떨까요?

Is it possible to add comments in Figma, I shared the prototype to few folks wondering if there is a comment feature.

Hello,We currently are creating annotations utilizing the native Figma annotations tool, but we also need to recreate the annotations to create a format that we can export to pdf for client review and approval. If we could make it possible to turn on Annotations and have them visible along with the frame elements, so they could be proofed by others not within Figma that could be exported as a hard copy, that would be an amazing feature. Currently we need to move them every time the layout shifts. It isn’t very user friendly.

Lately, I’ve been trying out asking Make’s model for design feedback and collaborate on ideas, BEFORE I want to make actual (code) changes. This is a good workflow people use with more experience with prompting.Unfortunately, I’ve noticed that when I ask it to “not make any changes” because I’m asking for ideas first, it just gets stuck on “Reasoning...” 😅 💡 Proposed solutionHaving a Chat Mode that can be toggled, similar to Lovable, would probably be a nice user-friendly way to provide this type of functionality, without having to prompt for it.

Kind of what this says really. Figma Make is a brilliant tool even in Beta.I have a workflow of taking screenshots from Make and putting them into FigJam and sketching over them with my iPad, so it would be great to have the copy to PNG function that exists across the other products (even if it was an interface button). It’s also useful when needing to paste a screen back into the chat to provide feedback.In terms of working with Cursor it has great conversion of images. Ideally there needs to be a way to export all screens (or a selection) to an image folder. At the moment it’s painful having to take screenshots and then deal with the external organisation of these. Exports should have some form of naming logic too (date, time, screen, etc...)

I’ve been playing around with converting figjam notes into slides. Would be great if Figjam could talk to the custom templates. For example, a sticky labeled insight #1 should use the Insight slide format from this Custom Template

It is unfortunate that the ability to export assets is tied to the ability to copy code. My developers need to be able to copy code from my mocks in dev mode but it would be best to be able to separately NOT allow asset export to force development to pull the assets from our internal repository.

Right now, overlays in prototypes only work if the trigger and the overlay frame exist on the same page. This creates big limitations for real-world workflows: Many teams work with a WIP page for ongoing design and a Presentation page for final client delivery. Moving frames between pages breaks all prototype connections. Centralizing overlays in a dedicated page is not possible, since prototype actions cannot target frames outside the current page. This forces designers to duplicate overlays on every page, which is error-prone and makes maintenance harder. 👉 Feature request: Please allow prototype links (including overlays) to reference frames across pages, with persistent connections that don’t break when moving components or screens between pages.This would massively improve scalability for large prototypes and save hours of re-wiring interactions every ti

Publishing and updating has become more specific and more powerful (I think) with each update. It also has become more cumbersome equally with each update. We publish/update every 2 minutes if we’re unlucky and that takes a lot of clicks currently. Go to the right tab in the library, open the publish, pick what to publish, avoid the extremely subtle “Make” banner, click the right button, etc. etc. etc.. Updating is the same.So I would love to just have a magic button that does it all for me on the highest level. Although I’m sure there are plenty of edge cases where this idea might fail, but for me it would be great to click the magic button and having it publish all tabs that are open, have changes and are a library. At the same time, update all open tabs that use one of these libraries.Food for thought?
