I would like to request a feature that can group all tabs, and name the group.
Ex.
there are tabs A, B, C, D, E, F. I can drag them into a group name Work, and Social.
The Work group has tab A, B, C, and the Social group has tab C, D, E, F.


Allow to create Groups of tabs
collapse and expand according to needs specific files.
Like google chrome tabs

YES! I came here to suggest the same thing. Some canned groups would be nice, eg Prototypes, FigJam, as well as custom, eg “Heather’s files”.


Yeah working across multiple teams, with multiple documents, and libraries… it becomes a nightmare to navigate all the tabs. This would be a huge improvement to quality of life in Figma.

I actually have it on last week! After I accidently group 2 tabs, each take up half of the screen. I don’t know how I make it happened, but it’s quite useful, as I need to compare 2 files.

Today I was trying to have this again, but I don’t know how. So I search how to do this, but came here to find out this feature seems not yet exist…(?!) Anyway, I need this grouping feature, thank you!

Hi community, I have an idea that’s been in my head for a while and I don’t know if it’s been mentioned before. Since Figma is a web-based tool, it would be great if it allowed:

  1. Grouping tabs for each project together, similar to Chromium-based browsers.
  2. It would also be good if tabs that are not being used have a stop button so they don’t consume computer resources and only reload when you enter the tab.

Thanks!

+1000 for this feature! I have dozens of files open at once and I often can’t read what each tab is, or accidentally close a tab I didn’t mean to because of tight space.

When working with multiple files in Figma, managing numerous open tabs can become overwhelming. A tab grouping feature, similar to how Google Chrome handles tab groups, would allow users to organize related files into collapsible groups, making navigation more efficient and improving workflow.

It looks like this was brought up over 3 years ago, and is quite a popular idea… any progress on this feature @Figma??

Agree that adding groups like chrome would make organising files SOOOO much easier, I often get lost trying to find the file I’m working on and tend to put related tabs next to each other.

+1 from me, would be very useful to have this feature to help organise files!

3 years later still hoping to get this update. I desperately want to group my projects like chrome!


Amber_Anderson

Also came here to suggest the option of grouping tabs in Figma. 

I very rarely feel compelled to leave software feedback but it would be a huge help in terms of context switching to have the option of grouping file tabs in the Figma desktop app - similar to how tabs can now be grouped in chrome and safari browsers.

My current work around is including emojis in project names for findability but groupings would make a huge difference in work processes. 


Arielle_Weiler

I always have SO MANY tabs open and this feature would be incredibly helpful for my workflow. Please implement this feature!


Annamaria Boheim

Yes please for grouped tabs! 🙏 I can’t believe this is not already a standard feature.

Dear Figma, 

Since I work as professional UX/UI designer on daily bases on lots of projects, I would like to recommend you something to think and include in Figma that I think would benefit lots of users. For example since I use 2 Figma accounts (personal and work accounts), both Professional subscriptions, I sometimes need to switch between those while working and what I miss a lot i to have something like fast switch between those without having all the tabs mixed in top header, but for example it would be nice if you could have a feature that would allow a user to for example open personal account, open all the needed projects in tabs, then group those tabs in one tab with the indications like “name of the account and when you would switch between accounts, it would expand the tabs in it and when switching back group them back and shrink under account name or however you rename that tab group. For instance as you have in Chrome or Opera browser. It would be useful and tidy way of going bwetween 2 or more accounts. At least iit could remember which tabs were opened when I switch between the accounts and have those opened. If you need more information on how this would look, you can contact me or I can as well make a short prototype for you as it would really be a nice feature. Thank and god speed.
