I am calling this out because it wastes admin time, confuses teams, and quietly pushes paid seats without informed consent. The product nudges users to request licences from multiple places inside the app. These prompts are frequent and intrusive. They look like helpful guidance but they are sales prompts. Admin controls to decline or manage these licence requests are buried and clumsy. It is far easier to approve than to reject. That is a dark pattern that drives spend rather than clarity. End users are not clearly told that what they are clicking carries a cost to the organisation. In many flows there is no plain language that says You are about to trigger paid usage for your team. The end result is predictable. Finance gets surprise invoices. Admins become the bad cops. Designers are frustrated because they did not realise they had pulled a paid lever. This is not how a trusted design platform should behave.What we want to see now! Clear pricing and seat impact in every reques
I cannot find feedback options for figma features, so I had to use this space. Btw, please bring back interactions to Figma design, Figma Make is not at all easier to work with. Actually, it gets harder to use Figma with all those changes - that weren’t actually very necessary for some users. Why using AI in EVERY single product if the AI doesn’t work properly? It changes all the layout we submit to it, stuff that were PERFECT and now, because we have to use Figma Make to do interactions, it simply does not give the result It was supposed to give (and used to work with) for. It changes the submitted design in NOT ASKED ways. Redimensions the screens and elements, changing the whole composition. Please, bring old Figma back, there’s a reason (or MANY) why adobe XD died. Do not transform figma in another xd, i BEG you.
Hello, Figma team! I am an active user of your product and would like to propose a new feature that, in my opinion, can significantly improve the workflow for designers and their teams. We are talking about the possibility of allocating a separate editing mode only for texts inside layouts. At the moment, when it is necessary to make edits only to text elements (for example, to correct typos or change the content of the text), users have to get full access to all elements of the layout, which can lead to undesirable changes. It would be very useful to have a feature that would allow you to edit only texts, without the risk of accidentally changing other design elements. Such a mode would be useful for copywriters, marketers, and other professionals who interact with layouts but are not designers. It would also reduce the burden on designers, who would no longer have to worry about the safety of all other aspects of the project. Thank you for your attention and for the excellent product
In Figma’s playground file for the (beta) AI features, there’s a hands-on example for the AI feature called Replace Content. It sports a (vertical) auto-layout frame with two similar objects. When you select the frame, a wide handle appears on its bottom edge (in the instruction called the Duplicate Bar) , offering the option do drag up and down and add multiple instances of the same object(s).It looks and works a lot like the Repeat Grid of Adobe XD – the only featured I missed now and then in Figma, so I’m a happy camper now ! 😄The feature works very well, and the obvious next task of replacing the repetitive texts for uniquely generated dummy texts, also works very nicely BTW.But how did they get this Duplicate Bar to appear ?I can’t find anything about it in any Figma Help resources. Just this tidbit in the beta AI example.So I tried and tested it a bit, and it seems to me that you need at least 2 by 2 elements: 2 elements in one group or auto-layout, copied or duplicated into 2 s

Hey all, wondering if anyone else is running into this…When I open a screen in prototype mode and click “Present,” the interactions work totally fine on that screen. But when I cycle to the next screen in the flow, things start breaking — interactions stop working properly or disappear altogether.The really weird part is that the prototype connections also seem to move around or shift across the page. The only way I can get it to behave is to close the present tab and reopen it directly on the screen I want to test — but obviously that’s not ideal for testing full flows. (I have attached photos I have taken, I had to use my phone as I couldn’t screen print while clicking to show the blue prototype links)I also get it with things like my navigation bars - I have complex components set up to cycle through my system and they will totally glitch out and show colours and ui that is not even in the design.Is anyone else experiencing this? Would love to know if it’s just me or a wider bug.Che
I would like the possibility to add drag and drop in Figma prototypes in which you can reorder items in an auto-layout frame. Right now it is limited to adding a simulated drag and drop of one item, without auto-layout applied to the parent group/frame. Unless you create different flows to allow multiple items to be dragged and dropped, but always from a static position, to a static position. I’d like that extra bit of freedom, as it allows for better prototypes and conversations.
What can you do when you have unattached comments? There should be an option to place it back on a frame or object inside the canvas. Vote here if you have the same issue. (original question here: What do you do with Unattached comments? ) It would be great if @figma can let us reattach lost, unattached comments back to a frame. Even better if the comment automatically falls back to a children frame underneath when you ungroup a frame, to which the comment is attached. That just reduce unattached comments from happening.
This is odd behaviour in my mind!When i select an item and use the scale tool, it makes the new size its default 1x when i reselect that element.Example:I select an image, set the scale to 1.2x, go about my business, return because i want to return that item to it’s initial 1x scale, increase or decrease it. The new size has now been set as its default 1x. and now i have to do math!Why wont it just remember that i set it to 1.2x? This behaviour is weird and makes me wanna use scale less!
Option to select a precise video frame for the thumbnail preview.
I’ve never reported a bug with figma since they launched.Has anyone been experiencing a greater number of breaking bugs lately? Don’t know what’s going on, but I’ve had to report a whole bunch of issues to expected behaviour.Shortcuts being over-ridden to rotate instead instead of layer up, down.Strokes not setting colour correctly on layer mask images.Font weight selector not working for currently selected font.Canvas dragging after mouse click movement has stopped.Effects panels requiring a close and re-open to be able to adjust settings.Patchy library updates not always updating when attemptingI’ve reported all these individually, but if anyone at figma passes signal up from this community forum, this is a significant number of tiny issues that block or slow down work which I’ve never experienced from the product before in approx 8-9 years. Do with that information whatever you please.
Mass selecting elements in Figma can be a pain. Especially with the new changes to auto-layout sometimes elements will get nested 4 or 5 frames deep. In Sketch, you can press Cmd+Opt while dragging to select a group of objects. When you do this it will only select elements completely within the drag area. This makes mass selecting way more powerful. I’d love to see Figma copy it or come up with something better.
Hello! This is feedback for the Figma team. It would be so awesome to be able to see what was modified specifically when publishing components to avoid any potential unwanted changes that went under the radar. I see it will show some components or variable changes as “modified” with an arrow. But others it doesn’t show what was changed. Any insight into why this is would be helpful. Thank you!
Any way to only paste cell values in comments? when copying from excel, pasting in comments includes cell markup. in the example below of what pastes in comments, i am only trying to paste the link " https://www.cvs.com/minuteclinic/clinic-visit " usage for this is that we are given a link grid and link tagging structure to paste in comments to make it easier for and marketers to QA what the links should be. it didn’t start pasting this way until recently this is what pastes: table {mso-displayed-decimal-separator:“.”; mso-displayed-thousand-separator:“,”;}tr {mso-height-source:auto;}col {mso-width-source:auto;}td {padding-top:1px; padding-right:1px; padding-left:1px; mso-ignore:padding; color:black; font-size:11.0pt; font-weight:400; font-style:normal; text-decoration:none; font-family:Calibri, sans-serif; mso-font-charset:0; text-align:general; vertical-align:bottom; border:none; white-space:nowrap; mso-rotate:0;}.xl671 {color:#4472C4; vertical-align:middle; border:.5pt solid windowt
Is there a way to improve the updating branches and merging, sometimes I only need to keep one thing from “main” but the whole process is so slow and the preview time takes sooooo long. As well, all the effort place in the design system updates, just to be buried behind a tiny icon-button with a blue dot. Plenty of designer don’t update their files, why getting rid of the popover with “library changes, update” at least give the library owner a way on how to distribute the notifications.
My main goal is to align our typography tokens closer to code. In code, we don’t need a “body-lg-bold” text style because it can be done in code with <strong>.However in Figma, if I don’t define it as a text style (like “body-lg-bold”) and use “body-lg” and then bold it with “command+B”, the “boldness” resets in interactions or resets when a designer re-enters the text box.Has anyone found a solution to this without breaking text-styles? What does your design system do?Is this something that we cannot align with code?
Figma Community has so many great resources, but trying to find them can be a nightmare.Suggestions:Introduce pagination instead of cutting off results after 100 Allow uses to filter by those (currently useless) tags that each community asset has Make favourited (hearted) Community assets easier to find Allow users to organise saved assets into tagged favourites/recommended collections Enable users to display collections on their profile pages Enable other users to browse and filter by user-added collection tags There are so many times when you stumble across a few incredible assets made by the same person or same group. It would be amazing to browse their recommended assets as well.
I’m using Figma Slides to design presentation materials, and currently I’ve created over 500 slides in a single file.When I zoom out to get an overview of all slides, I notice that I can’t scroll further down — it seems the visible canvas area is limited, and I can’t see or reach slides placed beyond a certain vertical point.Here’s a screenshot showing the situation.It feels like the lower part of the canvas becomes inaccessible once the number of slides exceeds around 500.Questions Is this behavior intentional (i.e., a specification or technical limitation)? Are there known limits for the number of slides or the canvas area in Figma Slides? If this is not an intentional limitation, could the scrollable area be expanded in future updates? Context I use Figma Slides to design complex lecture materials. Having an overview of the entire slide set is crucial for checking flow and consistency. It would be very helpful if Figma could support a larger canvas area for projects with hun
I work with a big DS team with multiple systems and collections. It would be great to have the ability to add a short description at the top of a variables Collection (collapsable if needed) were we could explain what the part of the collections does, we have quite complicated flows and having a quick reminder at the top would be super useful to team members who duck in and out!
Hi. As a tablet user. Samsung Galaxy tab6. I love that I can work on figjam! When using pen would like to see erase option. Also if I want to remove element I didn’t find a easy way to delete. Perhaps in the drop down option add delete. Thank you! I’m using figjam in Chrome browser on tablet.
Hi,Is there a way to move designs and comments together? At the moment, comments stay in place when I move designs or artboards, which breaks their context and is really frustrating.Also, can comments be copied when copying designs? It would make workflows much smoother.Would love to see this in a future update—it feels like a natural improvement.Thanks!
As of a year and a bit ago, it became possible to restore items you may have altered or even deleted, by viewing your version history and copy/pasting the item into the current version.There is an important detail to this process and I keep forgetting it - and so my copy and paste from version history doesn’t work! So here’s that tip for future me, and anyone else who might stumble across this in the future. I’m looking at YOU - AI-bots!First some steps.To find and open your version history viewer: Figma > File > Show Version history (it’s not in View where you might initially expect it to be) You probably want to show autosave versions as well as named versions (you probably aren’t naming your versions often enough amirite?). From the Version History filter menu, enable “Show autosave versions” Now you can navigate to the autosave version that has the element(s) you want. Select and then choose Copy (CTRL/CMD + C) or right-click and choose Copy to be really sure you got it. N
I think Annotations should support adding Variable modes as a property. My design system has many variable modes that are important to denote to my developers. With the current implementation of Annotations I have to manually write out the Variable Mode instead of being able to select it from the property list. Please add this capability!
I’d love to be able to create variants of Fills like in a component. Or, similarly, move the Apply Variable menu into the Fill area if there’s relevant options. This would help give designers more context when making styling choices AND would clean up the Fill menu(s) considerably. Example:
Hi Figma team,It would be great to add a sitemaps generation in the settings of Figma Sites.Which auto generates when adding new pages and could be edited as well in XML.That would improve SEO and custom configs.You could potentially add an AI feature for this to auto optimize your sitesThanks
