i am also running into this issue during usability tests this week- keeping this thread alive - its amazing how many windows users are looking for the browser scroll bar so the can click on it and drag it up and down… i didn’t even know people still tried to use scroll bars like this in recent decades - but they do for sure as i am learning

Almost 2025 and still running into this issue when user testing prototypes Figma!!


Christian_Clausen

I cannot believe there’s still no solution for that issue …

Definitely require visible scrollbars for prototyping.


Meredith_Kench

This is still an ongoing issue - please display a scrollbar in the prototype when scrolling, or give an option to display one when setting up the overflow to scroll.

Same here. Keeping the thread alive. Shouldn't be such tough issue to crack and improve user testing heaps!

I’m new here but are you telling me there is no way to scroll text up and down with a little bar? HOW with all the insane power and potential of figma is this extremely simple and necessary tool not available? 


Chima Studios

So much missing from Figma. This is the 2nd big issue I’ve run into after ditching Proto for Figma. I might just be on my way out.

Hi ​@djv is this true, no scrollbars in figma - a digital product design tool where you cant make complete digital products :O

+1 We need this feature. Please enable the visible scrollbar in the web prototype!

+1 I’ve had to abandon a user research session today because of this 😡

Surely it must be a simple bit of code...

The irony is the the figma UI has a scrollbar….

+1 plz one product owner at Figma put an eye on this. This is getting ridiculous by now...

4 years old and still not available? AI can help you with a design but if it lacks basic functionality its neevr going to be good enough, please add this feature guys

This is also a recent piece of feedback we’ve heard during our user tests. Would love to have a scroll bar...
