Does anyone know how to turn off Figma’s auto-formatting? I’m trying to type '- ', but it looks like Figma is assuming this text must be a bulleted list. I’m having a similar issue when using text that’s in the format of an email address or a url. Figma is changing these to unwanted links. I’d like to turn off all text auto-formatting.

I’d like there to be a quick way to restart a figma make prototype preview. currently, I have it pasted in my Figjam for a design review meeting, and once i go through the interaction, theres no way to easily start from the beginner. 

Is there a way to turn off the AI chrome when sharing the prototype in "Make"? When sharing in the prototype view, I was expecting it to just share the screens but when I shared the link, it showed the make file with the AI chrome. Is this a big? Or will this be an enhancement?

Immediately sticking out for me is the absence of a “blur” interaction. This is necessary to simulate “focused” states in things like drop-downs and text inputs. Without this, my components get stuck in the focused state without an elegant solution for having them blur like they do on the web. My current workaround is to use the “mouse leave” action, but this is suboptimal. I imagine you could add a trigger called “Click Outside” or something similar. Besides this, the feature is a golden so far 🙂 You folks are killing it!

I really like Slots and the Duplicate features but I would love for a slot to duplicate the content when set to fill and the parent item is expanded.At our organization, OCLC.org, we just a lot of tables or in MUI’s case, DataGrids. Like a lot of datagrids.  To make a component that expands columns and rows when an frame is expanded isn’t available. I’ve been working on this with Slots and components in our design system but you still need to select each slot and pull the duplicate bar to expand it to shape. 

First off. Yes, we all love variables. Secondly, this may have been discussed before, but it might be worth repeating. Also, I’m a bit frustrated so I’m sorry if I gripe a bit. Components need to have their own instanced variables. It is so time consuming having to set up a brand new variable collection for every component that uses variables, in every file. The way my team and I thought we could use variables is to set up the basic variable structure for a component in our library, then be able to adjust the value of the component for each instance. This would have so many use cases, and would honestly make my life so much easier. The current reality is that, when we set up a variable collection in a library, we are stuck with those values for all eternity. No way to change them unless I wanted to make a new variable collection in the file I’m working in and map them to the library variables (which I don’t even know if you can do because Fi

The Figma app for Microsoft Teams is fantastic! But unfortunately, it doesn’t have compatibility with shared channels. Please consider adding it, so that I can share my Figma designs with external clients more easily.Full list of supported apps:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/shared-channels#supported-apps-in-shared-channels

Title: AI “Improve My Design” Button (Auto UI Optimization)Description:It would be incredibly useful to have a one-click AI feature that analyzes an existing frame or screen and suggests improvements to the design.For example: Improve spacing, alignment, and layout hierarchy Suggest better typography scaling Enhance visual consistency (colors, padding, components) Optimize accessibility and readability Offer alternative layout variations Right now, Figma AI helps generate new designs, but there’s no simple way to refactor or improve an existing design directly.This would work similarly to how developers use “refactor” tools in IDEs — but for UI/UX design.Use case:Designers often have rough drafts or mid-fidelity screens and want quick, intelligent suggestions to polish them without

When a change is made to an instance, any updates made to the original component after that do not carry over. This is very frustrating and results in me updating each instance. 

Similar to how you can add an image in a Figma comment, support to add a video

I am currently working on integrating a Figma Make prototype with Rudderstack, but I have found that Figma Make does not offer the option to create environmental variables. I would like to request that you consider adding support for environmental variables to Figma Make, similar to what Vercel or Netlify offer.This feature would greatly improve security and make it easier to configure applications.

I’d like there to be buttons that act as controls to jump to the first or last item on the page. In documents with lots of screens, this could be useful to avoid having to scroll up and down so much.I’d also like to be able to mark screens as main screens or flow starters (in the same way we currently mark a screen as ‘Ready to dev’) and navigate directly between them using ‘previous’ and ‘next’ controls.Is there already something like this?

Can’t do truly responsive tables in figma.I design complex applications that require a lot of tables. Currrently, there are two primary approaches to responsive tables in figma: row-based and column-based.In reality, neither of these is fully responsive. In row-based ones, when a cell's content expands in height, all cells in that row adjust accordingly. However, if the content expands in width, the cells that are supposed to be in the same column don't follow suit because there is no relationship between them. The same happens with column-based tables, but the issue lies with the height. There is another approach called grid-based tables that almost solves that issue. The downside is that you can't use components in a simple way, like slots. If you need to create a prototype with hover effects, the interaction

Hey everyone. I want to share some feedback on the current Figma Make credit system, and provide a literal step-by-step escape route for anyone else who feels trapped.I absolutely love(d) Figma Make for the initial 0-to-1 build. Figma successfully built "vibe coding" into their platform, which is incredibly cool. But what isn't cool is blocking users from actually using it that way. The entire value proposition of Figma is rapid iteration. Yet, I hit my third lockout this week after spending nearly 100’s on credit expansions in a two weeks.Almost all of those credits were spent on debugging, QA, and fixing logic—not building new features. The usage-based pricing essentially acts as an "iteration tax" that actively discourages you from polishing your app.If you are building a complex web app, you have to eject your code to finish it. I was intimidated by this at first, but Claude Code and Gemini (which gave me easy instructions) literally walked me throu

This button is too close to the flow starting point section. I almost never want to send to figma make. Make this dismissable or hideable. I just want to make this frame a flow starting point.

Our team is attempting to migrate our Sales Team presentations from Google Slide to Figma Slides.Good Things:The design control is soooo much better than Google Slides. It’s so easy to bring in work from a regular design file allowing us to have beautiful slides.  Animations are cleaner and simpler to work with than Google Slides. Although not as sophisticated as Keynote or PPT.  Nesting slides is nice; especially when we made a Master Deck File that houses 100+ slides for the Sales team assemble decks from. Feedback:Linking is currently not a pleasant experience. 1. You can only link text links which underlines the text by default (but you can toggle the underline off). You cannot add a link to objects/images.  2. It is easy to add a slide # links, however if you duplicate a presentation file the links created stay with the original file. So you have to manually change each link again making it super

When aliasing a color variable to another (img 1), or using it directly on an element (img 2), we should be able to override the opacity without the need to create a variable for each transparency variation: Cant override opacity in the alias: Example 2 Cant override the fill opacity:

As a user who does not want to create extra work for my UX team but wants to create workflows and up to date examples that persist I want to be able to“Copy as Linked” - Copy the item “Paste as Linked” - pasted item updates from copied item Replace as Linked” (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R) Replaced Item updates from copied item So that My UX can use components the way they want and we can keep different pages up to date across figma boards by updating a screen that is the source of truth. 

We have found a lot of efficiency improvements with the JIRA and Confluence widgets within Figma Design. With incorporating more teams into the Figma ecosystem, I’ve found a lot of opportunities for building libraries and design systems and pulling in assets to Slides to build launch decks to share outwardly. We track a good amount of things through JIRA.Would LOVE Jira + Confluence widget support in Figma Slides. Atlassian and Figma work awesome together, but need it across more platforms than Figma Design only

As in chrome or any web browsers, having the ability to group file tabs will allow users that work in multiple projects, to have them organized and easy-to-find.   

The resize handles that appear when using focus view in Dev Mode or mobile preview in Figma Make are very handy. An option to display these when viewing a prototype in Responsive mode would be a very nice and helpful addition.

I know that I can export as SVG from draw.io and then drag and drop in FigJam but this does not allow me to edit. I would like to import a flowchart from draw.io in an editable format. Thanks.

I use nested auto layouts for my tables: The table is an auto layout containing columns, and each column is an auto layout containing cells. I want my table to be responsive, so I set all columns to hug, except the last column, which is set to fill, so that the table spans the whole width of its container. But in smaller screen sizes, if the screen width goes below a certain number, the last column gets clipped/truncated as it’s on ‘fill’. So I set a min-width to ensure it is not clipped. But, right now I need to hard-code the min width. It would be ideal to set the min width to ‘hug’, so that I don’t need to hard-code it or change it every time I update the contents of the last column.

1. Why I’m Writing ThisI’m sharing this as someone who deeply understands how design actually breaks—not in files, but in real products.Figma has already solved some of the hardest problems in our industry: real-time collaboration scalable design systems bridging design and development through Dev Mode But there’s still a gap that every serious team feels, regardless of size or maturity:Designs look correct in Figma, but behave differently in reality.This gap is now more visible than ever as Figma expands into product building, Sites, and AI-assisted workflows.2. The Core Problem (Observed in Real Workflows)Across teams, the same pattern repeats: Designers create visually perfect screens Prototypes simulate only happy paths Edge cases are not explored deeply Developers reinterpr

Would it be possible to have slots show placeholder UI without having to mouse over, at least at the master component level?Helps to just take a glance at something and understand the layout, also stresses me out to look at something and its just blank 😅
