It would help with the prototyping and testing workflow to allow users to select multiple colors in the “Selection colors” section of the property sidebar on the right. When you select colors you will be provided with an option to “create styles form selection” and to “add to variable table...”This will enhance the initial UI testing and research phase of UIX design allowing you to easily and quickly apply your final styles and colors to a design system’s style set and variables.

With the rise of LLM-based “Vibe Coding” tools like V0 and Cursor, I’m expecting Figma to address this shift at Config 2025. This year has been transformational—it's now faster than ever to validate early ideas and prototype them with full interactivity. This speed benefits designers, teams, PMs, and users alike, making rapid iteration and validation a core part of the process.In my practice, we quickly realized that traditional wireframing in Figma no longer felt as useful—especially since we’ve never been big fans of its prototyping layer. Figma’s strength has always been in UI design, but we’re now facing new bottlenecks:1. Bridging the gap between AI-powered coding tools and high-fidelity UI in Figma.2. Defining components in a way that makes them easily usable in these new workflows. (What does a design system look like in this new landscape) As these AI-driven tools evolve, the question is: how will Figma adapt? Will they double down on

Problem:Product Owners (nondesigners) will often times share early work in progress without the designer knowing. This ends up being a headache of dev comments (30+) pinging with comments that designs are not complete or components are not built correctly. Solution:Designer who is the owner of the file can assign specific users/staff so they get all push notifications/emails  Reason:To help each team member own accountability for the consequences of their action. If a product owner wants to share an incomplete file to 100+ people in the organization without communicating the designer. Let’s ensure the push notifications/emails get sent to the product owner that initially share a file too early to help respond to each comment. 

I suggest having this feature in Figma since we are on a paid plan. Especially when we have so many frames/screens to be exported (eg. 170+) it’s a really huge filesize. And it’s not allowed to use an external PDF compressor platform when our projects are confidential. So far, I can only convert the frames into individual PNGs/JPGs, replace the frames with these image files, and export them into PDF. This is so time-consuming and troublesome.

It is now very unclear to see which files a person has access to. When a user has access to a specific file, you can’t see it anywhere in the admin page. It’s not very user friendly. I remember it being there in an earlier version, so please just bring that back. The files a user has access to should be shown in the sidepanel when selecting a user.   

Our UXR team has noticed an increasing issue with loading prototypes on Android devices. Are certain devices more susceptible to this issue? Sometimes refreshing the prototype once resolves the problem, but other times the prototype either fails to load entirely or crashes. Are there any recommended optimizations, or have others experienced this issue?

When working with SVG assets within a design system we’re often using named color variables that are part of the design system so that our designs support different color modes (light, dark etc) it would be super helpful if there was some way for these variables made their way into the SVG code (with a fallback for situations or usages where the variable may not exist) So in your SVG export instead of this: <rect x="0.331604" y="0.717941" width="20.9977" height="20.9977" fill="#ffffff"/> you’d get something like this <rect x="0.331604" y="0.717941" width="20.9977" height="20.9977" fill="var(--color-background, #ffffff)"/> which would then be able to be able to be dynamically changed based on what is being set for --color-background in the consuming web app.

recurrent use case. For those who also develop, its a life save to quickly be able to copy the svg code. There is also a repeated use case where devs will ask for it. This used to be possible, but now my only recourse is to export, open in an IDE, copy+paste… I looked for this in dev mode but can’t find it there either.

How can we specify the design component code that the AI should be using? In the Attributions.md file, it says:This Figma Make file includes components from [shadcn/ui](https://ui.shadcn.com/) used under [MIT license](https://github.com/shadcn-ui/ui/blob/main/LICENSE.md). We don’t want an AI’s transformation of shadcn components into what looks like our design components. We want to use our actual design components to limit the number of ways the AI can miss interpret the designs it is prototyping to reduce variation errors between prompts.For example, I can give the AI the same prompt, and it will give me different designs when it’s re-interpreting the shadcn→design components every time.Generating code that is already aligned with our design components is also more useful for engineering workflows to convert the prototype into PR’s.It should also import the guidelines file properly fr

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 background color of the Review updates window does not allow the current and updated components to be compared depending on the color of the components. In example below I am using Figma in dark mode and trying to compare two components that have black text. I am unable to do so because the dark text of the component is not readable on the dark background of the Figma UI. This can be resolved if Fi

I regularly prototype using two desktop screens - I like to design with a prototype open at all times to see it in context to it’s actual size. I love the mobile app mirroring feature because it’s easy to select frames and have the prototype view update dynamically. It would be so so awesome to have a similar mirror feature for desktop, where you have a prototype window as the ‘mirror’ that dynamically updates based on the frame that you select in a separate window. Has anyone else wanted something like this?!

Currently, dashed strokes have ‘trimmed caps’. Is there a way to have all dashes with the same length? Example:

When defining variables (specially numeric ones) there is no way to specify the units.For example a value 16 could be pixels but could be also cm or any other unit. When you consume Figma variables using an API you need to guess which unit is applicable based on the variable name, scope etc., instead of just getting the unit from the API. Is it anything on the roadmap to cover this feature?

Hello,I wanted to share a small suggestion: it would be helpful if future emails like updated “Terms of Service” included a brief summary that everyone can roughly understand what changed. I’ve noticed that other companies often do this, and it really helps ensure the main points are clear and accessible.As it stands, the content of legal comes across as somewhat dense and lacks transparency for people that are not lawyers, which could be easily improved with a short summary in the mail.Thank you for considering this feedback.Best regards,Mikka Wild

Sometimes a particular boolean variable can affect several layers. And some of that layers may require inverted visibility state. E.g. Layer 1 is visible when the variable is truthy and Layer 2 is visible when the same varaible is falsy. Let’s say, we have a multiselect field with a dropdown. When we select the first option, it should be added into the input as a label (label layer becomes visible). But also this option should be removed from the dropdown list as it’s no longer availiable for selection (option layer becomes hidden). So, both states depend on the same variable, but their conditions are inverted. It would be nice to have some negation operator when applying a varaible. Kinda logical not (!) in JS: ! isSelected. Or just allow us to apply boolean expressions as we do in prototypes , e.g. isSelected != true.

Excited for Sites! But there is def some room for improvement when it comes to basic things like global styles for inline text links. Maybe I’m not figuring out how to configure this but I’ll give an example: I need an h1 with multiple inline links in the text, like “This is my H1 title with one link and also a second”. From what I can tell there are two issues:There is no way to wrap multiple inline text objects in an auto-layout frame that then renders as a single h1 tag. There is no way to style this inline text with an underline and a color change when hovering without using some convoluted component setup. For example if I want any inline text link on my site within a paragraph tag to have the same underline & hover style, I think the only way to do this is using custom CSS in the site settings. This won’t show up in the designs though so not sure if this is the best approach. Hover interaction options in Intera

Hello, In my design system, I would like to map a container variable that would be a fixed value in desktop but a fill container in mobile.  I tried by setting a fixed value of 0 get the attention of the designers in order to make them change the value on their own but is there a way to automate this directly in the variable? I understand that this is not how variables are working but if there’s a workaround or a way to fix this, I’m taking it <3 Thanks ! 

It would be helpful if we could pick from existing variables when naming a new variant property maybe through a dropdown or suggestion list to avoid name mismatches and improve speed. 

Management of Dev Resource links is critical in our design systems. We are developing a multi-brand design system at Thryv that supports both React and Vue.js, and need to add resource links to a composed Storybook which documents a lot of components.Dev resource links are not editable from branches. We have our main file set to view-only so that design contributors have to branch to work for system integrity. They can’t add the dev resource links as part of their definition of done, putting the weight of that responsibility on the owner(s). Dev resource links can’t be automated easily for repititious components like illustrations that may all use a shared resource, but each component needs a link (and yes, I understand variants -- they are not appropriate for this circumstance). Between being an Electron app and lacking standard accessibility controls, hidden buttons that reveal on hover, and the links themselves changing positions after being

For sales or anybody that want to show data about his product or company, it would be cool to be able to add line charts or pie chart easily. Right now we need to edit it ourself, but non designers would not be confortable to ajust it. It will be fun to have a tool to create chart where we just have to put our data and it create the chart.

My life will get easy if there will be animated zoom in Figma like:While Holding “Spacebar” then clicking “Ctrl” we get magnifying icon already but can we drag the mouse to left/right to Zoom In & Zoom Out.Rightnow, we have to drag multiple times to zoom out and while holding 3 buttons at a time (Spacebar + CTRL + ALT). In zoom in case we can make a selection in that particular area we wanna focus at but it gets hard to use this feature while zooming out😕

It seems that all the emails I was getting previously on approved seats has disappeared. The only settings available to me now are for auto-approved seats. However, as I’m working in an organisation with multiple admins I would still like to get an overview every day on the approved seats by my peers. Is there a way to re-enable the general emails for approved seats, regardless if these were auto-approved seats?

I am trying to use the new annotation tool in Dev Mode. I have 2 questions: I have made annotations on a frame in a Figma project. When I move this frame to another project, the annotations do not move. Is there a way to move the annotations too? During annotating frames, is it possible to annotate multiple components/frames together?

the idea is simple. often times I am creating a design, in witch two objects share a curve/edge, but have a different fill color. the only way to make the different fill color is to create two separate objects, but then later on if you have to edit the line you have to edit all instances of the object. or sometimes I have the same object that I want two different fill colors on, and again I have to make two separate objects. the same goes for strokes. so, I sujust that there be some way to within one object have totally different fills and strokes. there is already a way to have multiple fills, but they only layer on top of each other with different opacities, and same with strokes. I think that the different fills and things could be added using this same UI, witch would also allow the mixing of different fills as well. you could also apply / remove the different fills to different area using something similar to the new paint / bucket fill tool. anyways, I know th
