Not sure if it’s just me and if I’m doing something wrong, but just having the exclamation mark notifying you that there is a conflict or issue with a mode that uses variables is too vague. I spent over two hours trying to identify the issue. I got a message telling me to ‘Library assets may need to be republished...’ which fixed nothing. In the end i found out the was an issue caused by me changing/organinsing some of the variables in my design systems ‘Layout mode’.The section that had the layout variables applied was still showing the correct values, so as far as i could tell all was good, so couldn’t understand the issue:-I get that if something changes in the design system that it can

Hi it've been a pain for our team lately. We always have to design in 2 languages (English and Vietnamese). We have to duplicate a flow in 1 language and translate into other language. Imagine if there're adjustments with the flow, we got to double work and make changes on both version. Couldn’t imagine the workload if the company decided to add 3rd or 4th languages. I wish there are some kinds of feature like language toggle. It would automatically update changes on both version. I can come back to each version to update some minor text translation. 

I’m a hybrid UI/UX designer, and part of my work includes creating digital assets (like instructional gifs / videos, product launch gif). Right now I design in Figma but then have to switch to other tools (Premiere or After Effects) just to put videos together. When it comes to prototyping, it requires higher effort to update these contents and makes collaboration harder. It would be amazing if Figma had some basic video editing features built in—nothing too heavy, but enough to:Trim and stitch clips together Add simple transitions or motion Layer text, images, or overlays Drop in audio tracks Dev friendlyIt’d be super useful for teams like mine that work on both design and content, and it could save us from jumping across multiple apps.

When using FigJam on an iPad w/Apple Pencil Pro, it would be incredibly helpful if the app actually recognized the gestures of the Apple Pencil Pro and followed the system settings, like swapping to the eraser or opening the tool’s command pallet. This cannot come soon enough… 

Hey guys! I'm a product designer and a Figma lover. For along of those years, I saw Figma grown up and become even better, bringing to us designers a lot of new possibilities to work. But this is my first time that I want to request a feature ASAP, since creates a lot of pain. Hope everyone see this topic as something really useful too.So, I usually works on web applications and thus I need to design both mobile, tablet and desktop version of the web pages.And, when we speak about Design System, we need to make sure that our components will adapt on each screen, no matter the viewport size.So, bringing this discussion to a real case: I made a component for my DS called “chip” with some variants as we can see on this print: The width’s component need to follow their inner content to keep

Often in my designs I need to provide fork for flow to go one way or another depending on conditions. When I use If/ Else and add Navigate to - the dropdown is not ordered alphabetically. I’m not sure what it was ordered on if on anything. It makes it really hard to find what frame I want to navigate to in according condition.If I start typing I can find a frame but due to the mess of not aphabetically ordered and a lot of frames that might start with same few letters this is not much help.Could we have actual search (Typeahead dropdown) instead or at least order it please alphabetically?  

When I merge a branch which has some comments, those comments are not copied/merged/… to main file. Is it expected behaviour or “thing in progress”? I would love to have those comments transfered. So i don’t forget anything 🙂

I am using Figma from almost 2 years. It’s a great tool. Previously I was using Windows 10 yet recently switched to Linux(Ubuntu). Figma doesn’t have any official release for Linux. There are some Unofficial desktop versions but they are “BUGGY”. I request you guys to release an official Figma desktop app for Linux.

Sometimes I use dev mode links to look through people’s files. For every file I viewed I get notifications when something is marked as Ready for dev.And it also bloats my mail withFrame 2087324273 is ready for dev in Draft | You're subscribed because you viewed this file in Dev Mode.Kinda tired to unsubscribe from every single file. Why there’s no option to opt off every dev mode updates in settings? Figma notifications settings  

When marking a comment as resolved, we are now automatically moved to the next one. I’m wondering if or how we can disable this behaviour?My work flow being to go from screen to screen of user flows, and not comments to comments, this is very disrupting as it can bring me anywhere in the file, and I need to find and navigate back to where I was. I understand this might be useful for reviewers that only goes through questions left by other people, but this probably not most users, so it would be useful to have the ability to disable this feature.

If I have a team with some members not spending their Make credits, I want to commandeer those as an admin. Or even better, I’d like an admin setting to put the sum of all the credits for our full seats into one shared bucket.

Coming from a design org where designers with full-seats have a variety of workflow-types. Some designers leverage AI heavily while others do not, thus some designers burn through AI credits and others have a generous amount that go to waste in that AI credit cycle. This trend can vary, of course, so as an admin, I think it would benefit our organization with some type of allocation or redistribution of AI credits to those seats who rely on them during a given credit cycle—credits that are technically available within our organization. It could even be a designer-to-designer interaction where Designer A shares 1000 credits with Designer B if they know they don’t need all their credits that cycle.Is anyone else seeing this trend in their organization, or see this as a potential scenario? I want to make sure we’re getting the most for our money and optimizing resources across the team.

The issue being faced today:I want to have preferred values only show up under the instance swap feature. Not searchable in the assets panel, as these are typically sub-components that I don’t want to be used on their own (examples: a dropdown menu used in a global navigation component, the vector for an icon used to instance swap in an actual icon component to control the sizes via icon properties, a single segment used inside a donut chart, pre-configured links or buttons commonly used inside a bigger component to make it easier to select from a pre-set). Why this isn’t possible:Unpublished and hidden components are treated the same in Figma. Hiding/unpublishing a component in Figma is currently the only way for it to not show up in the assets panel. Hiding/unpublishing a preferred value leads to additional issues: Preferred values cannot be selected by library consumers if they are unpublished. Preferred values

It really should allow external users to leave comment on Figma make. Commenting on Figma make is crucial!I have been pasting them back to Figma Design just to get comments for feedback...

Figma Make Commenting Feature Request.Feature request: Add native, pinned commenting inside Figma Make prototype view/links (similar to Figma prototype presentation comments). Current behavior: Comments are not supported in Figma Make today, so feedback needs to happen in Figma Design or FigJam instead.

If I am writing feedback in a comment and need to go back and inspect something, once I click out of the unsent message, the entire typed comment in progress disappears. Can we please have the ability to auto-save comment drafts so I do not need to remember to copy and paste what I have in progress each time?

Request: Through the Figma MCP, access contents of comments made in Figma Design file.Reason: Can provide context for designs, review bugs, etc.Current response from OpenAI Codex with direct link to comment:No, not the comment itself.What I can see from that link is the node it points to:file: XXXXXXnode: XXXXXXscreen: /sign-up-2 (iOS)That screen contains:nav title Sign UpEmail and Password inputsSign Up primary CTAContinue with AppleContinue with Googledivider OrAlready have an account? Sign inbottom legal linksBut I still cannot read the actual Figma comment thread or the #XXXXXX anchor content from this session.If you want, paste the comment text here and I can map it to this exact screen and tell you what change it implies. 

Right now, size depends on stroke width, so stuff like this happens: I want to be able to adjust the arrowhead scaling, just like in any other design tool:

Currently, when using variables, in the settings you can’t select wether you want a value (for example, padding-sm) to apply to just the padding or the gap of an auto layout. Which means that when you want to select a gap variable, it shows all the padding values as well. Can we get a setting for this?

It’s so limited and we have to clear it everytime. Increasing the limit or making it unlimited and wrap the text is a great idea.

I’ve just applied variables to all our project’s text styles. It all works as expected. However, in inspect mode, font weight it still displayed as normal css value and not with css-variable. See screenshots. Is this a bug or me messing up things?

Hey ​@ksn just one small request can we get tracker and queue on our community account that would help for sure. Thanks 😅  

Hi everyone,Is there an option to cancel the export action?While the action is running it shows this nice “Exporting...” info:But I could not find a way to abort the action.And if one made the mistake to choose export 1064 x instead of w it takes quite a while until the export action is done. Meanwile I cannot edit anything else.Why not add a little (x) next to “Exporting...” to give a possibility to stop the action? This would be great!Best, Sarah​​​​​

Hey all - I am running into a bit of a issue with how component properties are working today - specifically in the context of Figma-to-code workflows. It’s not so much of a “blocker” but I think it would be a huge unlock if we were able to attach “meta” or “pass-through” properties on Figma components.Currently any properties added to a component need to be “used” in your component. A variant, boolean, etc. needs to affect something structural or decorative in your component or you’ll see an error icon and a message “Not used within component”. Instances of the component will not contain these unused props. This is reasonable since you don’t want to have extra props on your component that are effectively no-ops. However, as Figma designs and components are increasingly the input for many design-to-code workflows, many of the things we might want to associate with a given component do not necessarily have a visible presentation impact on the Figma side, but ar
