I would love to see the ability to define a set of brand colors within a Figma Buzz template that end users can easily apply to (parts of) text.
Specifically, it would be great if template creators could:
-
Add a predefined selection of brand colors to the template.
-
Make these colors available as text color options for users of the template.
-
Allow users to apply these colors to specific words or text selections (not just entire text blocks).
Use case:
For branded social posts or marketing materials, users often want to emphasize or highlight a specific word in a headline or sentence using a brand color.
At the moment, users can technically change text colors by unlocking the template. However, this removes all restrictions.
What’s missing is a controlled middle ground:
-
Users should be able to select a word and apply one of the predefined brand colors.
-
They should not need to unlock the template or gain full editing freedom.
-
The template should remain structurally protected while allowing limited, brand-safe customization.
This would significantly improve usability for branded templates while maintaining design system integrity and creative control.
