I have a scenario. I have a form in which I want to submit a comment. The comment object is on the screen and is a component with 3 variants: 1 > hidden (note-hidden) This is the component on the screen where it is at 0% visibility and 1px tall. 2 > transition state where it looks yellow (note-transition) Note is full size but is a yellow tone. 3 > the final state (note-default) The note is in it’s normal state. When I tap the submit on the form button I use a variable to change the variant from note-hidden to note-transition. The variant “note-transition” has an after-delay action to change it from yellow to the normal color. This is the old school 37Signals yellow fade pattern. The issue is that when I use a variable to change the variant, the “after delay” doesn’t work and it just stays as the “note-transition” state. My take is that this transition should trigger and it’s a bug.

In our flow, we try to use annotations to describe data paths for components and text fields. In some cases the dev mode UI becomes cluttered. A keyboard shortcut to toggle annotation visibility would solve this issue and also align the toolbar option with the others around it. As this is targeted to developers, they find more comfort into using the keyboard more. Side-note: i think there is a small bug: in a section, with multiple frames that contain annotations, the selected frame will have the annotations visible. But if no frame is selected, one of them will have the annotations visible. I don’t see a clear algorithm regarding the winning frame here.

I’ve been loving Slides for getting quick user feedback. However, it looks like the Poll and Alignment widgets may preview what other audience members have voted when you hover over options. Would it be possible to hide responses from other voters until they are revealed by the presenter to reduce bias?

I have been designing for set-top boxes for several years now. And it is very convenient to do it through the transmission of the screen to the TV. But, there is no official support for Figma Mirror for TV sets. Many times I wrote to support and asked, but I always got the answer that there is no support. The most interesting thing is that Figma Mirror works perfectly on Nvidia Shield or Google Chrome (last generation) set-top boxes. You only need to put the app through aptoide. But with each time figma mirror refines the functionality for the phone, which severely degrades the functionality in TVs. For example, last year, after another update, the Remote Control for prototyping stopped working on the TV. It was very convenient to make a prototype, connect the buttons on the remote, and control the app. It felt like you were really using an out-of-the-box app. But it doesn’t work anymore. The second example happened with the last update. There was onboarding, w

Is it possible to have all comments within your click-and-drag selection area move?Currently, if comments are pinned on an actual frame, they’ll move with it, but it would be nice for comments outside of a frame to move as well as sometimes I like to leave comments right outside my actual design (sometimes a bunch of comments can get in the way and be distracting when designing or reviewing designs with others). In another example, when I’m organizing my page, clicking and dragging to select a group of items in figma should move everything in that area (think maybe a few components, groups, frames, scattered comments outside of frames moving all at the same time). Would make this process lot more easier and efficient instead of having to move outside comments one at a time!One more nice-to-have is if the “undo” feature works on comments too to remove comments you didn’t mean to put or put it back from where you last moved

I see that the Code Connect feature is currently only available in the Enterprise or Organization plans, which only support annual billing. This is quite a significant expense for my team. I need to be cautious before committing to this feature without experiencing it first. Could I request a trial opportunity before paying for it? Additionally, is there any plan to include this feature in the Professional Team package? Thank very much~

I wanted to delete and recreate a post that I accidentally created as a “Question” when I wanted to create is as a “Conversation”, but I realized I can’t delete the post because there is no delete button anywhere.

When I try to duplicate a variable, the "Delete" and "Duplicate" buttons are placed next to each other and look identical , I often miss and accidentally delete it… ( 

Hi Figma Team,I love using Figma – it’s an incredibly powerful tool for design collaboration. However, I noticed that once a user sets a profile picture, there’s no option to remove it and revert to the default avatar. Currently, the only options are to change the picture, but not delete it entirely.It would be great if you could consider adding a “remove” or “delete” option, so users have the flexibility to go back to the default avatar if they wish.Thanks for your amazing work, and looking forward to future improvements!

I am playing around with letter spacing. The slider (and when using arrow keys) needs to make adjustments in smaller increments to make it a more user friendly experience. When adjusting letter spacing this is typically a very fragile process with small chnages made in either direction. Ideally I want to keep this active and have the ability to make very small adjustments (perhaps with the addition of a hot key / shortcut).I can’t be the only one that feels this way, it just does not feel usable in its current form.(does anyone @figma kern ?)

Hi, I’m a Gaming Industry UIUX designer, for the longest of time,I’ve been using the web browser to go to figma, view as desktop mode,painstakenly go to the tiny layers, click on the correct frame to enter the Prototype preview mode.The reason why I don’t use the Figma Mobile app is because, unlike the Web Browser version, thereis no way I can fit to height for the layout. [Fit to Height] while allowing width to be responsive is a necessity when designing for landscape mobile games interface. I hope to see this feature implemented so I don’t have to wait till I bring the High fidelity design to the game engine to test things out. 

Need a way to update padding numbers in sections instead of manually resizing it every time. The current padding of 80px look very small in some cases, hence the request. Or if we have any way to do it today, please let me know.

Original Situation:I am working in the Figma tool, and while checking the preview of my designed screen, I encountered an issue. In the preview (actual size), there is a Figma header overlay. Parts of that header are not fully visible or clickable if I place a link within it. The overlay’s position and size seem to block interaction with elements in that area, especially when I move the cursor over the header section.Idea / Suggestion:It would be very helpful if Figma provided an option to adjust overlays vertically (in addition to the current positioning options). This would allow designers to better control the placement of overlays and ensure all parts, including headers with links, are fully visible and interactive during previews. I am sharing this idea to improve usability for designers and collaborators. Please refer to the attached UI for a better understanding of the issue.

Hi Figma Team, As a plugin developer and daily Figma user, I’d like to request an enhancement to the Plugin API. Currently, image adjustment settings such as exposure, contrast, saturation, temperature, tint, highlights, and shadows—which are adjustable via sliders in the native Figma UI—are not accessible via the Plugin API. The imageFilters property on nodes like RECTANGLE always returns default values, even when those image adjustments have clearly been applied through the UI. This limitation makes it impossible to build plugins that copy and reuse image adjustment settings across multiple image layers, which would significantly improve efficiency in projects that require consistent visual styles across many assets. Request:Please consider exposing the actual values of image adjustment parameters (filters) via the Plugin API—either through node.imageF

I wish Figma will create prototyping functions so i could create a function template and send him the request variables, just like in javascript, a function that holds set variables, conditions and more. That will save a lot of prototyping time and the interactions will be managed better for changes. Currently, if you have a lot of variable interactions then it’s a hard to manage repeated interactions with small changes and adds or even keeping track of the prototype logic. I wish it will look like this: Creating the variables Creating the functions Applying functions to the prototype. Managing logical functions for changes Check out my screenshots to understand my pain of managing all of this.

UX 101: do not do anything automatically that a user may not want. I have not once wanted a full stop (aka period) inserted into a text box when I hit spacebar multiple times. This is in the same camp of automatically adding a link when pasting (not once have I wanted this) or automatically turning text into a list. These should only happen when a user specifically adds these using UI.

Figma Design allow you to organize in a sub-folder like structure inside files, with multiple pages possible per project. Figma Slides however only consists of one top level presentation, not allowing you to create multiple presentations inside each file. This leads to a lack of organizing possibilities, and if you have multiple presentations or projects per client, things can get chaotic pretty fast. The option to nest folders inside each project in Figma Slides is a must, as I see it, or it will be impossible to keep track of presentations in the long run.

When working with a library that uses a large number of components and states, I think that like how we have a “direct select” tool for colours, we should also have a “direct select” button for component items.In my image, I have a component that has some booleans set up along with how I imagine the button would look and function. It would greatly help to have the same functionality we have to select any items using a specific colour with the “target” button beside it. This reduces time direct selecting items especially if there are items above the layer you intend to select. It also allows users to stay in the right panel for changes and adjustments if they can direct select the component element.  

Hi Figma team,I wanted to share a small pain point I keep running into — and maybe a solution.As a UI/UX designer working on complex SaaS and mobile projects, I often end up with Figma files that have dozens of frames across multiple flows. Despite careful naming, it's easy to lose track of what’s ready for dev, what needs review, or which version belongs to which client.Lately, I’ve found myself wishing I could just tag frames — like #ready, #needs-feedback, or #v1.2 — directly on the canvas or in the left sidebar.Something lightweight, like sticky labels or even a built-in tagging system, would make navigating and collaborating inside Figma so much smoother.Right now, I rely on naming hacks or color-coded backgrounds, but it gets messy — especially when the file grows.I imagine a world where I could quickly filter or search for #mobile or #dashboar

You know how sometimes you feel like having a copy of a screen in another file (or page), and would like to have it be updated automatically, but it feels overkill to create a main component out of that screen? If you just copy and paste it (for example for creating a prototype in a separate Page without messing your original screens), it’s pretty much instantly out of date. You also know how you can embed Figma files, frames or prototypes in any website, even integrating in other services like Jira and Dropbox with the Live Embed Kit. It works AMAZING, it shows even up-to-date designs, and you’re simply copy-pasting a link, without the overengineering of extra components. What if this would work within Figma itself?? Check this out:

Hello,My developer pointed out to me that when they view the Figma files in Dev mode, the font information only shows this: color: var(--rgb-353132, #231F20);font-family: "New Science";font-size: 24px;font-style: normal;font-weight: 700;line-height: 30px; /* 125% */ Are you able to have dev mode show that information within the css styling?

Hello, I know some of you already submitted feedback regarding Figma Grid in Beta and I share the same frustrations regarding rows and columns attribution/organization and size management. Would be great to be able to just select a grid’s column or row or multiple and handle bulk edit. Removing rows and columns are really a pain. I have another issue and wanted to see if it’s a shared one? If I remove a content from a grid cell, or if I move some around and then decide to undo what I’ve done with ctrl +z, I have no history of what has been done in the cell, it’s gone :(. Does it happen to you guys also? 

It would be beneficial if Figma included the option to enlarge the interactions panel. Reading all the conditional and variable interactions within the small preset frame size can be challenging. Enabling users to expand the panel size, similar to the way the variables frame can be expanded, would make it easier for users to review the interactions they have set. Being able to copy interaction would be extremely helpful and reduce redundant work

Is there a way where i can bind the border with a bolean variable in which i can show it on or off.
