Hello, It’s possible in the future to export a Figma frame’s on editable PowerPoint, like it’s possible on Canva ? I know isn’t the principal functionality on Figma, but I think it’s a new possibility to create 😃

When I get a Figma marketing email, and I go to the bottom and hit unsubscribe, why on God’s green earth would it be one of those hidden partial unsubscribes that says “Unsubscribed from marketing emails!” with NO link to turn off all email notifications or manage all notification preferences???It frankly reads as unprofessional and scammy. Like the emails aren’t even useful at the top of the marketing funnel, do you need people for your email contact list that bad?!This isn’t my first, or my second, paid Figma account. I don’t need to be at the top of your sales marketing pipeline every 3 months when I need a new account. I’m a marketing professional just like you. At least give us the option. We are power users a lot of the time, so making us hunt through our account settings to turn it off is such a poor customer experience.Please fix this! It’s basic accessibility and is a more faithful and honest interpretation of the CAN-SPAM compliance than the sneaky loophole that’s popular to

You can currently set multiple stroke colours to an object, but they will share the same properties (thickness, position, etc.). My idea is that you should be able to set all stroke properties on each stroke: Make sense or am I missing something?

There’s currently no way to wrap text around an object like an icon, spot illustration, or image. The only solution is to manually break the copy into 2 text boxes and add the second one underneath the icon. We had big plans for our design system to include scaled variants of components where text would need to wrap around icons and spot illustrations to save screen space. So not having this feature makes it hard to design for accessibility and see how components will scale. It’s a little tricky to get the line height right, and also means we can’t easily add scaled variants to our existing design system library. It’s also stopping us from creating a plugin where designers could stress test their designs with larger accessible fonts. Would be great if Figma could add this as a feature. Has anyone else had this issue? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

Hi,It would be really useful to have an option to create a local backup of all Figma files, along with the ability to restore them from those backups if needed.This would be especially valuable in cases of connectivity issues, internet outages, or other situations where access to Figma is unavailable.Is there currently any way to do this other than manually saving each file one by one? With hundreds of files and an active workflow, maintaining individual backups on a regular basis simply isn’t practical.A bulk backup and restore feature would be a huge improvement for teams and power users.

When we share links to prototypes in Figma Design, we can customize the sharing to be visible to people outside of our company (great for usability testing). Permissions for slide presentations have to be set at the slide file level, which is annoying when you have the presentation open and you want to just adjust the sharing permissions from right inside the dialog.

Hello Figma Team, I always struggle with comments when I move layers, especially when changing the order of the frames as they remain relative to the canvas, not the element. This becomes especially challenging when too many people review the design and they leave their comments. One change on the frames’ order will cause the comments to be pointing at the wrong element causing unnecessary confusion. It would be great if I could bind the comment to an element rather than the canvas.

This makes it easier to use components in designs for different screen sizes. And then you don’t have to calculate every time what 40% or 60% of the width is. This also makes it easier to design scalable applications that grow with the width of the screen.

 Most of the filenames are long and you have to click every time to see the whole name, it’s not super convenient. Can you make the area wider please? Most users have wide enough screens to afford it. 🙏 

Hey y’all,  Who votes for the calc() - feature ?It’d solve a whole bunch of tiresome workarounds, such as :Line-height and widths on all kind of stuff, but for me it’d be really cool to have the grid working in percentage…  What are your thoughts? 

If Figma Motion gains the ability to work with imported video, especially to control the start and pause of the animation, it will greatly expand what’s possible for web animations — particularly for scroll‑based animations.

Our team is part of a larger organization, and all our Figma files are in one Figma Team for which I am a team admin. We have some Default Libraries set for the entire team, but need the additional ability to set Default Libraries for specific project folders. I’m not seeing the settings to do this right now.

As of today there is no way (at least I have seen none) to loop an animated instance inside another frame. If I try to duplicate the bar it just duplicates the component itself. Ideally would be nice to (just like in garage band with tracks) make the timeline of the instance larger so that it can repeat itself indefinitely. Cant make the purple bar longer. No looping for me I guess 

The new DevMode annotations tool is Awesome!!! Having lots of annotations tends to clutter up the screen on the design side, however, and it would be nice to be able to toggle their visibility on and off like with comments or multiplayer cursors. I had assumed that hiding comments would hide these as well, but such is not the case.

So I find that i am constantly losing slides due to super easy delete slide action (just clicking on delete or backspace will remove a whole slide when nothing is selected)compared to any other slides editor this is a problem I found only on Figma slides. what do you guys think? anyone else is having the same issue? 

The problemAnnotations are really helpful but when I have a series of screens next to each other, the annotations overlap those screens next to them. Potential solutionWhat if when annotations are not selected, they reduce in visual size so that they don’t overlap other screens next to them. They could reduce down to smaller circles, maybe with numbers so that they are easier to reference? That way the dots can sit alongside a screen with a much smaller chance of overlapping the screens next to them.See screenshot reference as inspiration.

I really love the new Figma Motion workflow! It is great not having to go somewhere else to create animations and export them back into Figma.Though a feature that most other animation programs/online services have that Motion does not is timeline snapping. Being able to snap the cursor (and keyframes) to certain time intervals is an easier way to synchronize animations than simply snapping independent keyframes to one another, in my opinion. It is annoying how imprecise setting new keyframes in relation to others is currently.So it would be great if this could be implemented. Maybe even an input field specifying the snapping resolution in preferences or something? (like every 50ms, 100ms, etc)

I wish there were a "Reset Slot" button next to the slot that has a "Modified" tag. This could help me a lot to reduce the steps to reset the slot. I guess while building this feature, the dev team might have guessed this action is not welcome for the slot. But in some scenarios, for example, I want to reset the slot whenever I accidentally change something in the slot, which causes the slot to freeze and not receive new updates.  

Select matching layers (with shortcut ⌥⌘A) is not working on layers inside Slots.The option is greyed out in the command menu (image below).I’ve double-checked that both layers have the same structure & naming.It would be extremely valuable to have this option available inside Slots, since most screens I'm working on take advantage of slots for reusability.  

Please add support in Figma Motion to timeline-sync and export video fill playback alongside animated object/text layers. Right now I can animate text and other properties, but I cannot keyframe or trigger a background video fill to play as part of the exported animation, which blocks deliverables and forces extra editing outside Figma. I understand I can auto-play in prototyping but that only gets me so far — I need the background video to play with the export. A native way to start, sync, and export simple video fill playback inside Motion would make this workflow much more usable. Is there a way to make this happen or a workaround (maybe a plugin) all within Figma?

Hi all, A lot of the time when I’m presenting designs, I will either put together a static slide deck with annotations, or I will walk through the interactive prototype in Figma. One downside with using the interactive prototype is that it’s not possible to annotate designs, in order to show notes and give people a better understanding of what I’m presenting. I understand that comments can be added, and ideally I would talk through the design myself, but having annotations that are constantly visible would be a great help. I noticed Adobe XD has this, as it displays a panel on the right hand side with all notes. Figma has this feature in Design mode, but when in Prototype mode, these comments can only be viewed one at a time. Does anyone else have this issue? Are there any plugins or workarounds that people have used to get around this? Thanks in advance!

It would be very useful to have an “Auto” font size option, so the text inside a sticky note automatically resizes based on the note’s dimensions. This is a feature available in Miro, and it makes a lot of sense for sticky notes, especially when working with boards that include notes of the same sizes.

When picking colors I’m always working in the HSL color system. When I want to change a color it makes so much more sense for me to be able to adjust the hue, saturation, or/and lightness rather than thinking about how edits to RGB might work, or trying to mentally decode hex values. Often I’ll want a color of a similar saturation & brightness but a different hue. Or a color of the same hue & saturation but different brightness. But in the Figma UI it defaults to showing hex values in the sidebar (or a color style name where the values are completely hidden unless I drill down): Hex values can be useful for developers (although lately we’ve just been using HSL in our CSS), but is not very useful to me when designing except for the rare case when I’m copy/pasting a hex value from somewhere else. It’s certainly not the primary way I want to see / work with colors. I’d love it if that display of HEX values in the UI was instead HSL. And secondarily, I’d love it if when a color s

When I have a layer or layers selected and I hit ⌥L to Collapse Layers, I always have to scroll up to find my selected layers.Ideally, the scrollport would remain focussed on the selected layers, if not the first.I think this is a regression, I’m sure it previously worked like this.

Ability to flag components as deprecated within Library or Design File Use “check design” feature to audit deprecated instances in current design deliverable. Alternatively use AI to run a similar reviewCurrently we are renaming the component by adding a suffix (Deprecated) so we can search for instances within the page.
