Feature Request: Tagging Sticky Notes in Figjam

Hi there! We really need a tagging feature for sticky notes. It’s a game-changer and helps user research teams categorize and manage notes by themes or topics with ease. What would make tags even more powerful toward collaboration is if they were searchable and filterable. You should also be able to pull and group notes under their tag name. That feature would help to streamline post-interview data management, which applied easily to any type of project, from personas to journey maps and affinity diagrams. This is already a feature that Miro supports natively already and it is a shame that FigJam is being left behind on a feature such as that.

Scaling busted in slides

scaling does not work in slides If i copy over a ton of layers from Figma to Figma slides and scale them it completely breaks everything. Scaling should work same as it does in Figma

Export files in batches and name folders by section name

Is there any plugin can do this or can Figma develop this kind of function?I really need this while I doing UI design cause I often group each function by section.

Groups Within Teams for Commenting

I frequently share notes on designs with a group of developers without knowing which one will work on what I’ve designed. I’d love to be able to tag several in a comment via a “group” I’ve created within my team (eg- “@FrontendDevs”) How are others handling this?

Archive page within a figma file

Ability to archive a page within a Figma file I often have a lot of pages in a Figma file for draft/random work. As soon as I am done with the work, I rarely visit the page again and would like to archive it. I do not want to delete it as I might need to reuse something from there.

Show measurements between rulers

What I need: Showing the distance between rulers. How I expected it to work: Select a ruler, hover another and hold option (mac). Context: In some really nested templates and components its impossible to actually select edges of correct elements for measurements, therefore I would need the option to show the distance between two rulers. Complexity: Seems to be an easy fix, since the individual coordinates of both rulers even show on the top edge of the ruler section of the UI, you’d just need to add the distance (where exactly I wouldn’t care that much)

Choose default export file type (graphics)

How about the option to choose which export file type is the default when exporting graphics? (i.e. SVG or PNG rather than JPEG) … this would make our devs REALLY happy! 🤩

Easier way to

Right now I’m combining different GIFs in a modular way to create instructions for processes. It would be nice that once you change variant by interaction (in this case delay), the next GIF would start from the beginning, even when it has been changing states for a while.

Gradient variables

It would be really nice to build a gradient variable tool where you can set amount of colors and stop position as well as angle vs just being able to apply a standard color variable to a gradient stop. This new feature seems half baked.

Figjam Delighter Idea: Crumpling up paper & tossing ideas into a bin

There is something cathartic perhaps about crumpling up paper containing your notes and ideas, and throwing them into a bin. Perhaps you were writing down everything on your mind that moment, and then crumple up the pages to create the clear slate. Perhaps it is taking all those ideas that won’t work, and throwing them out to clear more space, on the page or in your head. Imagine a feature where a user might crumple up one of their boards or frames, and just thrown it out to clear space or wipe the slate clean. Perhaps a delightful paper crumple animation plays. Maybe you see the board fly through the air into some bin to make a satisfying whoosh – mini-games aside. Simple put, it could be a way to clear your ideas (good or bad) out of our workspace (visually and mentally). Not gone forever. Perhaps still in the bin if you want to take them out and “unfold” them. To me, that sounds like something would be fun and useful to do as a designer, or anyone for that matter.

Flides - Live Interaction: Be able to edit the texts

Is there any way to change the language for the live interaction widgets? I can edit the title of the alignment type for instance, but not the “strongly disaggree - neutral - strongly agree” texts. Would love to be able to edit those to my language if possible.

Select which properties to expose on nested component instances

Lately I’ve noticed that when I have several nested components, I would only like to be able to modify some and not all. This would allow the component that draws on other components to have efficient adaptability in its contextual use. I am setting the variables for the Button component using variables and would not like the size property to be exposed so that the component has a desired behavior based on the active variable.

Outline effect

Hi Figma, glad for the update so far. I just want to share an idea or you can call it a suggestion. For now we have inner shadow, drop shadow and blur for effects. What about add one more effect such as outline just like in css?

Type properties: variables should be at the top of each dropdown

Variables are great and I’ve started using them a lot as I develop a new typescale for my design system, however accessing them in the “Type” properties panel is a pain in the butt. There are several different experiences across the various properties: Font: Variable is selectable at the top of the list Weight: Variable is selectable at the bottom of the list Size: Variable is selectable at the bottom of the list Line height, letter spacing, paragraph spacing: Variable selection icon appears on hover, in the input field. Why on earth am I forced to scroll past allllll the font weights and preset type sizes to access my variables? They should be easiest to access (top of list or on hover) and the experience should be the same regardless of the property.

Placing images needs to be easier

Why is placing images so tedious! It doesn’t have to be this way, Adobe XD makes it SO much easier to place images into a design file. For example you should be able to: Drag and drop images directly into a shape When manually selecting an image, the folder that opens up to select form should be the same folder that was most recently used in that file, so if I am placing multiple images from the same folder, I don’t have to navigate to the folder multiple times We should be able to select multiple images and drop into multiple shapes at once

Dev Mode licensing needs a review

Hi there, we’re currently running Figma in an enterprise license with 10 UX designers and about 20 developers in total. At the moment our annual costs are around $9000 for the full design seats. With the new dev mode pricing we would basically double our annual costs for some basic features a good design tool should offer out of the box. Our devs don’t need fancy “Customize code output” or “Sync design files with their codebase”. They simply want to see all our variables in an easy manageable way, navigate and inspect frames and components ready for dev and maybe track some design changes. Paying almost 9k additionally just for these basic features is insane, especially since our UX designers that have access to the dev mode basically don’t need it. Also there are basic features missing like exporting dedicated handoff collections of components, frames or flows. It would be cool to be able to get a free dev mode seat to every design seat and be able to apply this seat to anyone in the

Manual select when swapping libraries

Especially with the recent Variables update. It’s more important than ever to have the ability to migrate all the old Styles with new Variables. However, the current behavior is that it only matches whatever “name” is the same. This makes the whole swapping library a very underpowered feature. Ideally, it should simply allow us to pick Variables or Styles to swap with the old library. This has been requested back in 2021.

Version and Fidelity Properties

I would love to hear how others handle clear version labeling and fidelity leveling in their Figma screens / components. I’d wondered whether it would make sense to have any property types that could be automatically applied to components, configured at the file or organization level. Whether these are fully open ended, or perhaps more realistically ‘tied’ to concepts like “Version” or “Fidelity,” this has been something we have done manually ourselves to track our components. Example “Fidelity Type” Property values: Low, Medium, High We have found ourselves sometimes turning low fidelity screens into components to explore layouts, or even just to have a lower fidelity option to share out (thanks luminosity!) even as we are working on medium or high fidelity concepts. At times this has meant taking an existing component and adding a “Fidelity” property to start tinkering splitting out the next phase of iteration even if some project screens still live in low fidelity land. Whatever you

Figma plugin to merge color styles with the same name and/or merging styles from a list

Hi, is there a Figma plugin allowing to merge color styles with the same name and/or merging styles from a list like the Sketch plugin “Merge Duplicates”? It allows you to select which styles you want to merge (from the whole list of styles within the file) and merge them, even if they have different names. The style you decided to keep applied to all layers (and overrides) using the discarded styles, and the discarded styles removed.

Default page backgrounds based on theme

We need a default page background option to reflect and respect the user’s theme automatically. When I’m using Dark Mode and no specific page background color is set, it should default to #1E1E1E, while for someone using Light Mode the page background should be #F5F5F5. I imagine something like a simple toggle “Use background color based on theme“ or something like this, as the default, with the option to set a custom background color that becomes the background color for everyone.

Swap Library should allow manual mapping

It should be possible to swap library components manually. In this screenshot, I’m swapping a icon library for another, but the icons are not named the same, so I can’t finish the job. Why can’t I simply select the component I want to replace it with? Even worse, there’s no way to select the components from the old library to swap them them manually one by one. Component instances from my old library are scattered in pages and there’s no efficient way to select instances from a certain library (apart from the swap library modal). I’ve looked at so many plugins and none of them can get it done. It’s such a pain and could be resolved easily. btw - the same applies to “Missing Library.” Because I can’t swap them to an arbitrary library, I’m left with ghost components that I can’t even locate.
