Improvements in Figma Slides to make it a PRO Platform

Hi!! I am a big fan of Figma and when the slides version was released I was very excited to try it out. For some context, I am an advertising student and professional from Brazil, and when we think about Figma we think about a professional and free platform for design projects of various kinds. The problem now is that the slides version doesn’t reflect this idea, it’s too simple and plain. The resources that make Figma a great and precious platform are not there, so when I am using it, it seems more simple than the C competitor (if you know what I mean). Some tools that I missed using the platform: Blend mode Positions Layers

Edit Gradient Colors via 'Selection Colors'

There are a number of ideas related to this, but none quite capture what I think would be an obvious workflow improvement: when selecting an object with gradients, it would save a lot of time and effort if the gradient colors appear in the ‘Selection Colors’ section on the right hand panel, and are editable. (Bonus points if those colors can use swatches/variables, as others have mentioned—it would give users the ability to do a global edit!)

Simplify apply variable functionality for fonts.

I use variables for everything now. I use the apply variable functionality A LOT. Digging down in the font-size picker, font-picker, font weight picker just gets so annoying and really interrupts my workflow. I really how you did it for line height and letter spacing. Would be nice to just have an apply variable functionality work the same way for all the parameters. I am praying to the Figma gods this will be improved soon. Thanks! ❤️

Letter-spacing should not be percentage based

The default settings (at least in my Figma) load a percentage for letter-spacing, but this is not allowed in CSS. For a less avid programmer this may be confusing, when trying to get it to work. Either set the default to a px value, or add a warning inside the Inspect code

Constraint properties updating across component instances

My constraint properties aren’t updating across my component instances after I edit the parent component. I’ve ensured that my instances are inside their respective frames. Is there something I’m doing wrong or is this something to do with an update? I would love it if the constraint properties applied to the child components when I edit the parent!

List of Fonts in selection (like selection colors)

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this When we select a particular template or frame on Figma on the right side it will show all the colours did we used on that frame or template that’s a really good feature, Including that can you people also try to show us what all fonts that we used in that template or frame I felt that could be really great move by Figma if you people show the list of fonts that we used in that frame this going to be a great initiative by FIGMA. I’m really apologetic If that feature already existed in Figma I didn’t know where it was? I explored but I couldn’t find that feature. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this? etc. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

Remove Leaving Figma External Link Warning for anyone without an account/not logged in

Im creating a prototype and would like to link to live pages on our site without having the User in the test have to see the “Leaving Figma Warning” page. My concern is that it takes it breaks the illusion of an actual experience. Is there a way remove this middle page from the experience?

Paste, Replace, and Match Size

Is there a way to add ‘Match Size’ when using the Paste to Replace function? (CMD+Shift+R) I have tried a few plugins, but Paste to Replace is more smooth and quick.

Apply various font weights without breaking text styles

Currently, you are able to use the ctrl+B command on a text style to apply the bold font weight to a desired string of text without breaking the text style. However, if you want to apply other font weights like light, medium, semibold, or black, you must either create a entirely new text style (which can add up quite quickly) or detach the text style and manually change the weight. A way to apply various font weights without breaking the style (in the same vein as applying different styling like bold, underline, and italic) would be extremely helpful in increasing a design system’s adoption and flexibility.

UI3 - Insert menu & component list view toggle

I’m missing the list view we have in UI2 - I usually go by the component name which is now almost unreadable when you have all your components ordered by folders and sub-folders. We have many components that look very similar in a small thumbnails, and the grid view makes it harder to know what to insert. Insert menu - 2 different sizes - There’s a difference between clicking the Actions menu vs using the keyboard shortcut for inserting components, each opens in a different size, and both makes it even harder with the unreadable component names The component menu doesn’t close after dragging/inserting a component to your canvas. You have to click 2-3 times outside the menu for it close and even then it has some delay, it makes for a really frustrating rage click. I’m finding myself just click Esc or clicking too many times just so I can get back to work.

FigJam connectors in Figma

When creating hand-off documents I like to showcase user flows by using arrows between different UI elements. I have to use plugins to create these arrows at the moment. When playing with Figjam I notice it had a connector option - this is great. I would love it if we could also have this connector option inside Figma as it would be a HUGE timesaver for hand-off. I would like to think this would be a super easy update given that we can already edit connectors inside Figma. We just need a connector button in the toolbar like so:

Organizing 'Pages' by Color and Parent Group

I’d like to organize the left-hand “Pages” panel by adding color codes to each page. (Think how Mac’s OSX Finder allows you to add colored circles to individual files.) Additionally, Pages should have the ability to be sorted into groups within a parent folder. (Think how you can make groups in Photoshop’s layers panel) This feature will make it easier for my team to organize our Experience Library file. Users need to be able to scan the Pages quickly. I’ve attached an example of what the color coding could look like.

Improving the Comments feature

Hi! I have a list of ideas for improving the Figma comments feature overall (generally pertains to both the old and new UI). Would love to hear what others think about these suggestions! Hope I’m not beating a dead horse if these feedback items have already been extensively documented 😅: **Bring back the left/right navigation capability within comment pop-ups (specifically applies to the new UI) ** - I loved this feature in the old UI, and I noticed this was missing in the Figma redesign. I’m not sure why this got taken away, because I really liked being able to press left/right to quickly navigate between comments. When typing/editing a comment, don’t submit comments when the user presses “enter” - I don’t like having to remember to hold down the shift key while pressing enter in order to start a new line. I’ve accidentally saved comments prematurely more times than I can count, and it can get frustrating when you’re trying to type a long comment. I noticed Slack has a settin

Allow master components to be easily moved to another file

We experiment with components in our WIP files as we create our designs. When we move them to our design system, they are now new components and our designs are not longer linked to the one in the master component. It would be great if we could simply cut and paste master components into other files.

Allow pasting from Illustrator as Vector

When I copy assets from Illustrator and then paste into Figma, it pastes as a raster image. Keep it as a vector when I do this workflow.

Automatically create prototyping flow lines if a variant's property label is named "Hover" and/or "Press"

It would be helpful if, based on the property labels I use, Figma would understand that I’m creating a Hover variant and a Pressed variant for a component and it would automatically create the necessary flow lines between the variants to achieve that prototype behaviour. Maybe some other common scenarios could also be automated in this way?

Allow Developers to View Full List of Variables in a File

While working to build out our design system with variables, it seems like there isn’t an easy way for developers to view a full list of all variables built into the design system without having edit access to the design system or without the variables being put into a different reference system like a notion page as the master file and have Figma reference those values.

Windows Pen and Touch Not Functioning Properly in Native App

When I try to interact with Figma using touch or pen input, certain UI elements, such as plugin windows and scrolling through lists, do not work as expected. The issue occurs on a Surface Pro 11 X Elite running Windows 11. Steps to reproduce: Open the Figma native app on the mentioned device. Attempt to scroll through a list or interact with a plugin window using touch or pen input. Observe that the UI does not respond correctly. Expected behavior: Touch and pen interactions should seamlessly work for all UI elements, including plugin windows and list scrolling. Device details: Device: Surface Pro 11 X Elite OS: Windows 11 Please investigate this issue as it significantly impacts usability for devices relying on touch or pen input. Thank you!

Group/stash files within projects with tags for easy and quick scan.

Dear Figma, Would love to have the option to group or stash (whichever better) files within projects, this would add a beautiful structure to our projects and could scan through easily. Given the opportunity to even add tags, so we can filter better. This is a pain point because at my corporate company we have a lot of files within projects and it’s very hard to search and scan through. We have multiple teams working on different projects and files and many times there are connections within projects. It would be amazing to add these features and make it less time consuming to search, scan or even call someone to help us find what we are looking for. Thank you! 🙂

FigJam Search in Selection / Section

Hi, in huge boards it would be very beneficial to only search in the current selection or in a specific section. This could be another filter in the little search filter.

Zoom with scroll wheel jumps too much

In the last days I noticed a change in the feature of zooming with Ctrl+scroll wheel. It used to be much smoother. Now it jumps from 26% to 100% to 381% to 1449% 😐 This is a feature I use all the time to navigate my projects and this change prevents me from having adequate control over the view of my canvas. I need more intermediate steps in zooming, just like before this change.

View prototype on mobile Figma app without a Figma account

Can you please release Figma Player mobile app or allow user testers to view mobile prototypes on their devices without the need to create a Figma account? It’s so painful to watch recordings of user testing sessions where 1/4 of the screen is occupied by the web browser UI. So the basic idea is as follows: User tester has got Figma app installed on their mobile / they have no account / they’re not logged in They tap prototype link Prototype opens in Figma app straight away 🪄

Copy text directly from image files

Similar to the way Apple Preview works on OS and iOS, Figma should be able to detect text from imported images and give you the ability to copy and paste it within the app.

Live caption feature

In Indesign I can tag a text box with live caption and this will automatically change the text to the file name of any image it is overlapping. This is very handy because if you need to replace a lot of images then all the file names of these images gets updated automatically. Can Figma do this too?

Allow cut and paste for comments associated with the design

Currently when i cut and paste my designs to another file, or even another page on the same file, the comments don’t come with it. It would be great if comments can be cut over as well.
