Suggestion: Enable multi-property selectionSituation:While manually selecting properties of an element, I’ve noticed that I’m currently only able to select and copy one property at a time.Problem:Using Ctrl + Left Click only selects a single property, which makes copying or modifying multiple properties time-consuming and repetitive.Proposed Solution:Introduce the ability to select multiple properties at once using a combination like Ctrl + Shift + Left Click. This would allow users to quickly select and copy multiple properties, significantly improving workflow efficiency.Benefit:This small but powerful enhancement would save time, reduce manual effort, and streamline the editing process—especially during high-volume design or development tasks.

Issue:While creating a text style, the input field slightly shifts or moves when I click to type (from default to selected state). This movement feels like a glitch — the field shouldn't animate (or) reposition when it's focused.Expected Behavior:There should be no transition or movement. Only the visual state (like border or highlight) should change on selection, without affecting layout or positioning.Steps: Open the text styles panel. Click "Create Style." Click into the input field and start typing. Notice the slight movement or glitch as it changes to the selected state. Note:I’m wondering if this movement was added intentionally for a specific reason. Let me know if I missed anything!

Context: I’m part of a Figma Organisation team with thousands of design/FigJam files. We do our best to keep files properly organised within teams/projects for discoverability and general hygiene, but could probably stand to improve. General Figma comprehension across the wider business is quite poor.We often need to share files with other staff in the business (very few files have open access i.e. are automatically shared with everyone in the organisation). However, many people don’t seem to understand how permissions naturally work, i.e. sharing a project facilitates access to all child files; sharing a team facilitates access to all child projects & thereby files, etc.More often than not, editors will share links to the files they’re working on even when they’re concurrently working on several files within the same project and might as well have just shared the link to the overarching project instead, which would give them access to all current and future files within that proje

Adding a “bring me back to where I was” button on Figma canvas.

I tried AI image generation, and I was shocked. Bro, this free tool has some built-in styles, you can try it:  https://www.aiimagegenerate.cc/image-art-creator

For at least nine months, Figma has known about, and seemingly completely ignored, the fact that putting the toolbar on the bottom is unintuitive, and unrequested. I don’t understand why something so small has gone unaddressed so long, especially since the 2nd biggest thread on the forum is the feature being universally hated. Why change something that wasn’t broken?

There’s currently only Mac device frames to represent desktops. For showing UIs on Windows it would be nice to have a Windows laptop device frame to not confuse or distract stakeholders who expect a Windows design presentation.

I have a bunch of stickies that I’d like to make into shapes (rectangles) so that I can resize them/remove authorship. Is there a way to do this besides copy and pasting text into a new shape?

I work on iOS and always have at least three browser installed in my computer. I also use different logins for different platforms. I don´t want to change my default browser so each time I need do a web login in Figma I have to copy and paste it to the browser my login credentials are linked. I don`t know if anyone is having similar problems or if this is a personal ignorance. I think instead of redirecting user to the default browser, the link for web login could be shown in a menu with system installed browser options. I believe, this could prevent some of web login issues. Thanks for reading

Figma has stopped remembering the file sorting preference: It now always defaults to ‘Last Modified’ at the beginning of session, no matter what your choice was. Can we have it back?This is now default at the beginning of every sessionI am these days having to open this dropdown ‘Sort By’ → Alphabetical 30 times a day. Last modified does not work for us since it shows us whole new set of files every time because how many people work and edit files daily; Alphabetical works better for us since we use numerical naming and then every file is correctly displayed in the intended order of product importance (home, registration, features, etc)

I would like to express my concern regarding the new interface design (UI3). Specifically, the fixed action bar is quite uncomfortable for the design experience. The fact that it cannot be moved or repositioned freely limits the visibility of the canvas and disrupts the workflow—especially when working on large projects or with many elements.This static bar visually interferes and reduces the effective working area, which is a significant drawback compared to the previous version, where users could adapt the workspace to their preferences.I would appreciate it if you could consider offering an option to customize the position of this bar or make it floating, as it was in UI2.Thank you for your attention and for continuing to improve the tool.

SummaryApril Fun Week has come and gone, and with it, our beloved FigPals have been snatched from this cruel digital plane. I humbly propose the addition of a FigPal Cemetery – a memorial space within Figma where we can honor the memory of our lost pixelated companions.BackgroundFor one brief, shining week, tiny joy-gremlins followed our cursors around the canvas. They watched us prototype. They witnessed our questionable auto-layout decisions. They were there for us in ways no plugin ever could be.And now? They're gone. Just gone. No goodbye. No grave. No closure.Proposed Feature A toggleable "Cemetery Mode" in Figma Tombstones for each FigPal variant (ghost variants optional) Visitors can leave notes ("You always hovered with such enthusiasm", "Rest in pixels") Epitaph generator (e.g., “Here lies Blurple the Bold. Died chasing a component into an infinite frame nest.”) Optional seasonal ghost sightings around Halloween 👻 RationaleThe design community needs a space for collec

Problem StatementAs a designer who frequently presents work to clients, I need a way to present specific sections of my design file without duplicating frames across pages or creating complex prototype flows. Currently, there's no streamlined way to selectively show frames from the same page during presentations.Current LimitationsPresentation View: Works only for all frames on a page or manually selected frames, but doesn't allow for predefined sections Duplicate Pages: Creates maintenance overhead when designs change, requiring updates in multiple places Prototype Flows: Overly complex for simple presentation needs FigJam Boards: Requires moving content to a different environment Dev Mode: Primarily for development handoff, not optimized for client presentationsProposed SolutionA Section-Based Presentation Mode that would allow designers to:Define "presentation sections" within a single page Tag or group frames as belonging to specific presentation sections Choose which section(s) to

I would Figma to provide form controls such as radio, dropdown etc. functionalities by default. Those are so heavily used in some designs but then to create how a radio should behave in real scenario, that needs a lot of efforts currently in Figma. These are some of the features I miss from Axure. Creating a dropdown with list options and interactions for those are inbuilt in Axure. I don’t understand what prevents Figma to provide those just of the shelf. Until that I need to deal with the frustrations!

Can you allow us to keep the April updates like the 90s pixelated cursors (RIP bunny kao ani cursor) and this year’s FigPets? I know it’s a short term, fun thing you guys are only doing for the month of April or a few weeks, etc., but in a world that is constantly demanding and sucking dopamine as well as the life out of you, you can’t underestimate how much some of these things really bring delight and joy to users (who are themselves often working overtime to bring delight and joy to users).Also, RIP to Kero my often angry but sometimes calm froggy and my teammate’s burned toast.kthxbye

Want to be able to speed up and crop videos on slides

Plugins are very integrated part of any Figma workflow, current toolbar is capable of more buttons, which can be seen in other Figma plugins.I would like to have the option to show plugins so I can access it more quickly. 

In Figjam, shapes can be "free-resized" to accommodate whatever location and contents one would like, without resizing the font - the text re-flows:Shapes can be resized however you like regardless of contentStickies, however, seem to have two shapes available regardless of the content, which then just grow in height as you add more text (or they scale the contents if you resize from the corner):Stickies can not be nicely resizedAl they do is grow veritcally.I would like to simply be able to resize my stickies in a free manner and have the contents reflow at whatever font size I’ve selected (without resizing it for me), just like the shapes. Sure, in some cases I can just use shapes in place of stickies… but I shouldn’t have to.

In the “All teams” view, I want to be able to click on a user in the right column and see what projects they’ve updated or own.  I can do this for listed Admin users, but I cannot do this for others in the team now. WHY??  Admins are typically not the heaviest creators in the tool, so this change makes no sense to me.    I used to be able to see users in the right column with edit/create permissions in Figma, and could get a filtered view showing their work in the application.  That’s what I need -- and frankly depend on because Figma organization and findability is so challenging.  IT is TOO HARD to go into the left nav “Recents” item and dig for files that a user may or may not have shared with me.  This is a major loss in functionality for those trying to find work from a specific team member across a large team.  You’ve injected unnecessary steps into the workflow here, and I see no benefits to removing functionality that was working and forcing users into the “Recents” page to fil

If anyone else is annoyed with the new UI toolbar (toolbelt) being at the bottom of the screen instead of top - here’s CSS which puts it on top and shrinks it when not used: div[class^="positioned_design_toolbelt--root"] { bottom: auto; top: 12px; transition: all 0.25s ease; max-width: 300px; margin: auto !important;}div[class^="positioned_design_toolbelt--root"]:not(.positioned_design_toolbelt--root--INYO4:hover, :has([style*="display: contents"])) { bottom: auto; max-width: 46px; overflow: hidden; border-radius: 8px; opacity: 0.2; }div[class^="positioned_design_toolbelt--root"]:not(div[class^="positioned_design_toolbelt--root"]:hover, :has([style*="display: contents"])) button { opacity: 0; transition: all 0.2s ease;}div[class^="positioned_design_toolbelt--root"] [data-keyboard-receiver]>*,div[class^="positioned_design_toolbelt--root"] [data-keyboard-receiver]>*>* { top: 50px; height: fit-content;}You can put this CSS with any browser

I’m not sure how else to describe this, but you almost need to have used Adobe XD, I think, to appreciate this. XD has (it’s not fully dead yet) smoothing and panning that is buttery smooth. If you haven’t experienced it, you may not understand what you’re missing. But boy, if Figma could match that, users would be amazed! It’s genuinely one of the things I absolutely loved most about XD.

Since it contains most of the information regarding what the selected layer actually contains, it should be flotable and size adjustable imo.

I can’t paste an image from Google Docs into Figma even though I can paste it into other apps.In Google Docs I either cmd-c or right-click, Copy.In Figma I cmd-v or right-click, Paste Here. Nothing happens.I can paste the image into other apps. I have successfully pasted the image into TextEdit, for example. I know Google Docs used to require workarounds to get images out. Despite confirming the image is available, I still can’t paste it into Figma.The native clipboard viewer on the Mac (finder, edit → show clipboard) can show images copied from elsewhere (e.g. Chrome right click, copy image) but also doesn’t show the Google Docs image. So it’s on the clipboard but in an unusual format. However it’s clearly available in some form or other apps wouldn’t be able to ingest the image when pasted there. It would be very helpful for Figma, which relies heavily on images, to explore if it’s possible to access Google Docs images from the clipboard.

It seems that I can’t share Devmode with a client or external resource even if they have a Pro account. The only option is if the client is part of the same team. This would mean that I will need to add any external resources to my team and handle their billing too.

Currently, annotations only allow you to select the lowest level layers it can find. Many, many times I just want to document something on a whole group or frame, and it doesn’t look like this is possible, which seems like a huge miss.
