I have seen a lot of posts on reddit, linkedin and here all complaining re: Figmas opaque billing practices being so dark pattern-riddled it would put most scam sites to shame. There are countless posts across the web as old as 5 years complaining about this but I’ve yet to see any meaningful change. Adding seats and over-subscribing is way too easy with few guardrails, but reducing your subscription is far more unclear and difficult.What will it take for Figma to actually do something about this? Why is nothing being done?I keep having additional seats added to my plan accidentally. This has happened to my organization at least 3 times now. Every single time I fix the issue I go through the labyrinth of admin billing settings and think I have all my bases covered, but this system seems to be designed explicitly to funnel users into higher billing. The latest is because “Seat approval settings” was set to “Manual unless seat is available” (I had an unused seat, which w

Hi community! Dear Figma team, can we have an option to export original image from the image properties menu without using any plugins?  I think it could be placed right near the ‘fill’ property or beside ‘Libraries’.It’s a pain to use plugin for this task which a)takes long time to process b)creates unnecessary folder and just really inconvenient when you need to do the job fast. Please review and let me know if it’s even possible to do or is it too complicated? With all respect and a love to the tool and a team,Paul  

I was in the process of handling my offboarding and role handover. While managing user permissions, I first removed my own Annual Full Seat access and then assigned an Annual Full Seat to another person.However, when I reviewed the billing, I noticed that I was still charged a billing adjustment for Monthly seats. After checking multiple times, I found that I still had individual edit access to a project within the team, which resulted in a charge of $10.32.I would like to request that Figma revoke this unexpected charge caused by my accidental operation.  

You can duplicate a file, and create a branch of the current file but when your in a branch you can only duplicate to a new file not a new branch. I always have this need I create a branch and don’t want extra files I just want to create extra branches off of the branch not the original file which has been significantly modified at this point.

Love the basic set available, but let’s be honest — how often will we get new music? Why not just let me upload my own jams? Like this AI Theme Song I made to pump up the team before our semi-regular Design Workshops…

Using Claude Code connected to the Figma MCP Server, when asked to implement a screen with various different buttons, only some of the buttons were implemented as pressable (as buttons). Although the buttons looks different, they all had default and pressed variants and had the word button somewhere in the name. Looking into this further, Claude Code reported back that, “The MCP tool's code generation is inconsistent — it renders full state branching for some components and only default-state code for others, depending on how complex the Figma component is.”Question is, why is the Figma MCP Server not generating the full code, and is there anything that can be done on the Figma side to help with this?

I work for a company with a ton of legalese in their CRM and site programs. It’s very frustrating bringing in copy from my copywriter and the superscripts do not translate over and I have to manually go into Details/Position to tick a box to superscript. The dream would be for the copy to automatically recognize the superscript when I paste it into figma, however a better solution would be the ability to have a hotkey I could assign to superscript. It would be amazing for power users if all the features could have the ability to be assigned custom hotkeys for repetitive tasks like this. 

I’d to request support for using variables within prototypes for animation properties such as duration and easing. We’re working to systematize motion in our design system, and the ability to define duration and easing as variables would make motion much more consistent and reusable across files and teams. This is important because these values are foundational to how motion feels in the product, and they should be treated with the same level of structure and control as other design tokens. Right now, there’s a disconnect between how motion is defined in code and how it’s represented in Figma, since animation values can’t be managed in the same systematic way. Supporting variables for prototype animation properties would help bridge that gap, improve alignment between design and engineering, and make motion easier to maintain at scale.

When we’re voting in Figjam, it would be great if there was a way to “undo” or remove a vote if you change your mind, before hitting “I’m done.”It’s easy to go through a list of stickies, slap some votes down as you go, and then read further and think “oh shoot I should have saved a vote for this one!” But it’s too late.It could give an unfair advantage to items at the top-left corner of a list, where users tend to start.Especially when we’re collaborating with a wide group of people, not everyone is familiar with Figjam so it’s even easier to make mistakes.I understand if hitting “I’m done” would lock in your votes, but giving users a chance to change their mind beforehand would result in better… results ;P

When I copy assets from Illustrator and then paste into Figma, it pastes as a raster image. Keep it as a vector when I do this workflow.

As a Figma Enterprise admin I want to allow only specific groups to use paid credits access. I can set this manually, but as new employees are added to the platform continuously I want to be able to set a default value for this setting. 

When creating tokens and working with variables Dev Mode generates code where the group name is included as part of the token name. Currently this doesn’t make too much sense (for me at least) and in Figmas own variables tutorial it would result in spacing tokens being called “SpacingSpacing-sm” if you would look at the tokens in Dev Mode. Can we please get an option to exclude the group names from the generated code? The groups as I seem them are for organising and not necessarily something we want to automatically include in the token name. Semantics are important for tokens so if I have to leave out part of the name and only have it as part of a group name it makes reading the token and using it correctly in Figma so much harder. Definitely interested in hearing others experience regarding this! Maybe i missed something or should rethink our structure.

Hi all, I have passed a rather large project over to my development team and they have asked to see the grid information. I can’t for the life of me find it in the dev mode screen. I have had to send them information from screenshots in the design mode. Is there a way for the devs to see this information? Or is this something thats coming later down the line as an update? Thanks Simon

Currently in the code connect preview modal, the dark/light mode toggle is only a background color override for visibility rather than a trigger for the component's internal logic. It would be much better if we could specify and link the component variant (e.g., Light/Dark) directly within the 'Connect to Code' configuration. The current behavior creates confusion as to whether users are seeing the actual mapped variant or just a default state on a different background.

Hi Community, We use Figma (iframe) embeds in our technical documentation extensively and we would like to enable our colleagues to leave comments via these embeddingss instead of visiting the design in a separate browser tab/ window. What’s the proper way to do that? thanks,

I would like to request an improvement. When I need to replicate more items in an autolayout using the AI drag feature, I usually need to count how many items I need to replicate. Just add a box on click for the quantity if possible, thank you very much!

Hello, My iOS/Android engineers often ask me if a text should get an ellipsis or not. The question could be answered if the ellipsis property was displayed in the SwitfUI and Compose layer properties, in Dev Mode.  In this example I have an ellipsis with 1 max line, but it’s not displayed anywhere. Thanks for considering it,Théo 

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)

Every time I exit Figma and come back, the previously selected sort order is lost, and it defaults to "Last modified" – "Newest first". Previously, the selected sorting option was always preserved.

Feature Request: Batch Individual Auto LayoutApply Auto Layout to multiple selected items as individual frames rather than grouping them into a single parent frame. Current Format: Pressing Shift + A or selecting "Add Auto Layout" with multiple items selected automatically nests all items into one new Auto Layout frame. Proposed Enhancement: Introduce a modifier key (e.g., Shift + Alt + A) or a toggle in the Auto Layout panel that allows users to "Apply individually." This would wrap each selected layer in its own independent Auto Layout frame simultaneously. Benefits: Massively speeds up workflow: Eliminates the need to manually wrap 10+ items one by one. Maintains Layer Hierarchy: Prevents accidental nesting and unnecessary "Frame 1, Frame 2" group structures

This is a small nit but please...i’m sure this was made for someone but can there be an option to make it so this button never appears? it adds an additional click, which is so annoying when i am trying to click between to components i am trying to compare the settings inside to. PLUS there is nothing below it! I’m all for whitespace but minimalism that adds work is worse. 

We just wrapped the big announcements at Config, and we know there’s a lot to take in.This thread is your space to share reactions, ask questions, and let us know what you're excited about (or still curious about) with regard to Figma Make. Our team will be actively reading and sharing relevant takeaways with the product team. What we’d love to hear from you:What aspects are you most excited about — and

Great to see the addition of dividers. Would really love the ability to add a name for each divider, because this still doesn’t solve the issue where we need to create an empty page titled “{Section Name}” to call out what the divider is actually dividing.

 While using Figma, I frequently switch between 2–3 high-frequency plugins. However, the current workflow is inefficient: each time I need to open the plugin panel (via the icon or shortcut), switch to the “Plugins/Widgets” tab, and search through the list to find the desired plugin.I would like to have a “pinned plugins” area that allows quick access to frequently used plugins directly within the workspace.Suggestions: Allow users to pin or favorite plugins Keep pinned plugins persistently visible in the workspace Optionally provide smart recommendations based on usage patterns The core need is to enable users to customize and fix their most-used plugins for faster and more efficient access. 

Right now, I’m loving slots. They’re great and exactly what I’ve been missing, but there is one quark that is causing me extra time.I’d love to be able to prescribe a child height/width behaviour for any elements that are added to the slot. I’d love to be able to say “I want any child added to this slot to have width property set to fill by default.”An example where this is annoying. Right now, anytime I drop a container in a slot in my modal component, the I have to prescribe the height/width behaviour for the container instead of it snapping into place in the available space. In Menus, every time I add a new menu item or a divider or a heading, I need to select them all and say their width should be set to “Fill”. Its a small thing, but it adds up over time.
