It’d be awesome if I could change the BG color of the entire work area because mostly my team’s UI uses white. Pretty please? 😍

Can this request be implemented in the near future? I don’t want to beat a dead horse here, but I’m another user have pretty much all of the issues everyone has mentioned in this thread. I notice this overall thread has been ongoing for about 8 months at this point, and it would be great if we were to get an update from the Figma team on this. Thank you! 🙂

We’re still in need of this feature. HELP. Adding screenshots with white backgrounds makes them half-visible 😦

Yes!! Please add this capability! Or at least allow the frames copied from figma to have a shadow so it stands out from the white bg like InVision. PLEASEEEE!

It’s only your personal view settings. I mean I want to disable it for all viewers and for embed.

You could use “Section” and make the section grey to change the background
