Limiting Design system theming and APIs to Enterprise creates a huge hurdle for someone who may be a solo-preneur and wants to develop for mobile, web, and IoT. This would be a game changer for automated pipelines. 

Similar to how we have dev mode, design mode, and now draw mode in Figma Design, can we get separate modes for prototypes? DesignersCreate the prototypes Need to see hotspots on click Share internally to PM and Eng EngineersWant a more guided experience, there to see the interaction and flows without much self-discovery Perhaps a Split View of dev mode designs and prototype side-by-side ResearchersShare prototypes externally Limited extra UI, design-only. Less for participants to get distracted Sharing options such as password, expiring links, share specific flow links No hotspots A lot of this is available today, albeit not in different modes. Which leads to designers having to walk eng and researchers how to find and use these features. Different modes tailored to each user could help us have more of a self-serv

The new auto layout design seems unintuitive now that gap and alignment placement has been switched (alignment left, gap right). We would be far more likely to ‘set and forget’ the alignment, but often do tinker with spacing and gaps in auto layout. Every time I intuitively reach to edit gap in auto layout, I have to scan and mouse over alignment, something that just doesn't need to be in the way. Gap and alignment should be swapped back to what it was (alignment right, gap left). Anyone else experiencing this friction?Otherwise, this auto layout update is a wonderful and welcome change!  

We need the ability for variables in modes to have a nothing, blank, null, or empty value. For example, filled vs ghost buttons. In filled I have a fill color but in the ghost button it needs to be clear—so either alpha 0 (it works but it’s not elegant) or nothing (also not supported) for the variable mode to work properly. Otherwise I can’t use variables for changing themes on objects like these.

Currently, the "All Projects" section in Figma loads an infinite list, making it hard to navigate or locate older projects—especially when working in large teams or organizations with hundreds of files.Adding pagination (or even better, filters/sorting and a jump-to-page option) would greatly improve usability and performance, allowing users to access and manage their projects more efficiently.Has anyone else run into this issue or found a workaround?

Hey,I think it would be a good idea if we could use the pattern fill and subtract it from other shapes. It is very much needed for illustrations.Optionally flattening them to vector shapes and the subtracting would be okay, but not great.preferred would be that only the dots are subtracted 

For accessibility, it would be incredibly helpful to have an out-of-the-box alt text property for all images. This would help reduce the load on dev/design teams and allow us to build consistency into our image descriptions.

Use case: I add screenshots. I want to annotate + caption them for the team to have additional context of what they are looking at (or any other info i want to share) I dont want to additionaly grab the text tool/a sticky/comment. I want to have the text be in view. BONUS!!! if i could decide where i want to position my text label (either top/bottom: left,centre,right)

Continuing the discussion from Copy / Paste prototype interactions?: Can this particular feature also work with complex interactions, ones that have variables or conditionals in them? Another suggestion to include here is to also probably improve on the visibility that you can copy and paste interactions from the Prototyping tab. Right now I have this particular interaction where I’m resetting a bunch of variables to their values, and I need to have that same interaction with another button in an instance. I was hoping I could just do a similar way of Copy and pasting properties but for prototype interactions as well. As an aside: I tried the suggested action from the previous Forum post I linked, but it doesn’t seem to work for me. Maybe it doesn’t work if I’m trying to add interactions in component instances (nested or otherwise)?

 When working in design systems, often you have layers of sub-components with chained properties. In these common cases, you want to make sure to only modify the top-level property so that it updates the rest, or you get confllicts. A simple [✔] can edit would fix that by preventing the lower-level instances of the sub-component from being edited in an instance of the component.

When I put comment on an item into a grid, I would like it to be attached to this element so it follows it when I resize de grid frame.

[Config 2025] I can't align an element to another in a grid while it is possible with an item in auto-layout.

Is it possible to use local fonts (or any fonts not available on Google Fonts) with Figma Sites? Is there a way to link a .woff file or reference a custom font in any other way? Thanks!

Does anyone know of a way to prototype using haptics in Figma? Is there a way? I want to simulate having VoiceOver turned on in the Accessibility settings of the iPhone for testing. I have never seen a way to use haptics with prototyping. Does anyone happen to know of a way to do this or do you need something coded to test this?

I’d love to see two improvements to the Layers panel:Custom default frame name – Instead of every new frame being named “Frame”, it would be great if we could set our own default (e.g. “div”, “container”, etc.) in the settings. Auto layer name formatting – Add a setting to auto-rename layers using a chosen case style: camelCase, snake_case, kebab-case, PascalCase, etc. Would be super helpful for dev handoff and keeping files clean and consistent.

While making assets, i use colours from colour styles in Library, but while adding a shadow i need the colour to be from the colour styles, but the Option of Colour Styles from Library is not available in the effects colours option, only Variable colours.  would like to have the option to select from colour styles for Effects.

Hi I’m Sungjun, Product Designer in South Korea.After watching the Figma Site presentation, I came across something really interesting. As shown in the screenshot, it seems that different Text Styles can be applied based on breakpoints!I was surprised and immediately checked the Figma design file, but I couldn’t find the feature there. It appears to be available only on the Figma Site, not within the Figma design tool itself. Do you have any plans to bring this feature to the Figma design tool as well?  

I hope Figma adds support for flat angle adjustment. Currently, this kind of graphics does not support auto layout and the drawing is not standard.

Colour panels for fill and stroke- I frequently change opacity and colour by hex codeMaking this one additional click is frustrating   

Currently there is no way to change bullets to a numbered list without manually going through and adding the numbers yourself. This seems like a simple option that could be added by making it a dropdown and allowing the user to select bullet styles. Context: I am working on a heuristic evaluation with fellow product designers. Unfortunately we are in a position where we have hundreds of bulleted lists within tables, and we need to show that comments in one column related to comments in another column (columns: problem, recommendation, rating). Seemingly the best way to do this is to number the comments in each column.

I feel like for most personal websites, Figma (with breakpoints to help with responsiveness) is the only tool you need. You can view videos, photo, make galleries-the customization for no-code creators is all there. I would gladly pay to have my Figma prototypes open to my custom.com, especially to show off projects I am working on. Add a special SEO section and maybe some “web components” to embed video URLs or to add a form, and bing bang boom. Now truly anyone can have a custom website. (Even for those who don’t understand responsiveness, Fit to screen and fit to width can fill a lot of needs for many!)

Здравствуйте, извините, я не очень хорошо говорю по-английски, я попробовал сетку и заметил, что вы не можете ввести математические выражения, чтобы указать высоту строки и столбца, хотя я могу сделать это, чтобы указать большинство других параметров, таких как высота, ширина..., также нет функции, чтобы сделать одну строку в n раз больше другой, вы можете ввести только определенное изображение, но иногда вам нужно, например, чтобы одна строка была в 2 раза больше остальных, я точно помню, что это было в wpf (автоматический размер - *, и если я хочу, чтобы строка была в 2 раза больше остальных, я пишу 2*), я не помню, было ли это в css

Hello, I use branches to develop new features. I often need to share these links publicly for user testing but currently, Figma does not allow public links from branches.Our organization does have public links with passwords enabled in most workspaces, but that doesn’t extend to branches off of files in those workspaces.If there’s a quick solution that I’m missing, I’m definitely open. Otherwise, I’d love to see this added in future versions.

I couldn’t find any option to control z-index in Figma Sites. Will this be supported in the future?This is a must-have feature.

I would love it if I didn’t have to use Adobe Acrobat to create links in my PDF designs. It would be great if the PDF export feature would look at the clickable prototype settings on shapes and render those within the PDF, so if I create a button that links to a frame in the multi-age PDF or to an external website  those work without having to dive into Adobe products!
