First off. Yes, we all love variables. Secondly, this may have been discussed before, but it might be worth repeating. Also, I’m a bit frustrated so I’m sorry if I gripe a bit. Components need to have their own instanced variables. It is so time consuming having to set up a brand new variable collection for every component that uses variables, in every file. The way my team and I thought we could use variables is to set up the basic variable structure for a component in our library, then be able to adjust the value of the component for each instance. This would have so many use cases, and would honestly make my life so much easier. The current reality is that, when we set up a variable collection in a library, we are stuck with those values for all eternity. No way to change them unless I wanted to make a new variable collection in the file I’m working in and map them to the library variables (which I don’t even know if you can do because Fi

Title: AI “Improve My Design” Button (Auto UI Optimization)Description:It would be incredibly useful to have a one-click AI feature that analyzes an existing frame or screen and suggests improvements to the design.For example: Improve spacing, alignment, and layout hierarchy Suggest better typography scaling Enhance visual consistency (colors, padding, components) Optimize accessibility and readability Offer alternative layout variations Right now, Figma AI helps generate new designs, but there’s no simple way to refactor or improve an existing design directly.This would work similarly to how developers use “refactor” tools in IDEs — but for UI/UX design.Use case:Designers often have rough drafts or mid-fidelity screens and want quick, intelligent suggestions to polish them without

Similar to how you can add an image in a Figma comment, support to add a video

I am currently working on integrating a Figma Make prototype with Rudderstack, but I have found that Figma Make does not offer the option to create environmental variables. I would like to request that you consider adding support for environmental variables to Figma Make, similar to what Vercel or Netlify offer.This feature would greatly improve security and make it easier to configure applications.

I’d like there to be buttons that act as controls to jump to the first or last item on the page. In documents with lots of screens, this could be useful to avoid having to scroll up and down so much.I’d also like to be able to mark screens as main screens or flow starters (in the same way we currently mark a screen as ‘Ready to dev’) and navigate directly between them using ‘previous’ and ‘next’ controls.Is there already something like this?

As a user who does not want to create extra work for my UX team but wants to create workflows and up to date examples that persist I want to be able to“Copy as Linked” - Copy the item “Paste as Linked” - pasted item updates from copied item Replace as Linked” (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R) Replaced Item updates from copied item So that My UX can use components the way they want and we can keep different pages up to date across figma boards by updating a screen that is the source of truth. 

We have found a lot of efficiency improvements with the JIRA and Confluence widgets within Figma Design. With incorporating more teams into the Figma ecosystem, I’ve found a lot of opportunities for building libraries and design systems and pulling in assets to Slides to build launch decks to share outwardly. We track a good amount of things through JIRA.Would LOVE Jira + Confluence widget support in Figma Slides. Atlassian and Figma work awesome together, but need it across more platforms than Figma Design only

As in chrome or any web browsers, having the ability to group file tabs will allow users that work in multiple projects, to have them organized and easy-to-find.   

The resize handles that appear when using focus view in Dev Mode or mobile preview in Figma Make are very handy. An option to display these when viewing a prototype in Responsive mode would be a very nice and helpful addition.

I know that I can export as SVG from draw.io and then drag and drop in FigJam but this does not allow me to edit. I would like to import a flowchart from draw.io in an editable format. Thanks.

I use nested auto layouts for my tables: The table is an auto layout containing columns, and each column is an auto layout containing cells. I want my table to be responsive, so I set all columns to hug, except the last column, which is set to fill, so that the table spans the whole width of its container. But in smaller screen sizes, if the screen width goes below a certain number, the last column gets clipped/truncated as it’s on ‘fill’. So I set a min-width to ensure it is not clipped. But, right now I need to hard-code the min width. It would be ideal to set the min width to ‘hug’, so that I don’t need to hard-code it or change it every time I update the contents of the last column.

1. Why I’m Writing ThisI’m sharing this as someone who deeply understands how design actually breaks—not in files, but in real products.Figma has already solved some of the hardest problems in our industry: real-time collaboration scalable design systems bridging design and development through Dev Mode But there’s still a gap that every serious team feels, regardless of size or maturity:Designs look correct in Figma, but behave differently in reality.This gap is now more visible than ever as Figma expands into product building, Sites, and AI-assisted workflows.2. The Core Problem (Observed in Real Workflows)Across teams, the same pattern repeats: Designers create visually perfect screens Prototypes simulate only happy paths Edge cases are not explored deeply Developers reinterpr

Would it be possible to have slots show placeholder UI without having to mouse over, at least at the master component level?Helps to just take a glance at something and understand the layout, also stresses me out to look at something and its just blank 😅  

When exporting variant names, the file name becomes a combination of all the variant properties. There is no way to control the variant export name, which is especially difficult for developer hand-off. In this example, I have a back icon variant group (Named “Back”) containing both an Apple and an Android variant of the back icon. If I then go to expo

In Finland, we have to attach the invoices to all card payments for bookkeeping. Now I need to every month to go to Favro and manually download the invoice. Please add a feature where I can define an email address for the invoice emails and automatically send new invoices in an email with the PDF invoices attached so that we can automate the download and processing of the invoices. The subject of the email should have the same structure each month ("You Figma invoice YYYY-MM-DD) and the PDF invoice name should be unique and contain the date of the invoice, for example, Figma incoice YYYY-MM-DD

IT would be great i Text would behave like colors for bulk update , When you ctrl + a. a file all text styles will be selected you can then open a list similar to variants and choose the correct text style to apply to all varients just as you do with colors Why it’s needed LLM like claude code and make disregard text styles but for dev teams using text styles is a must so we , currently we need to select each text field one by one there is not way to select similar text fields.Plugins allow to update the text style in a bulk but not as a text style just as an alerternative text .super important for maintaining clean code .

I don’t want to see some properties or values of any properties, if they are not used in the component. This is making it difficult to use the components. Example: I have a button component with Property 1 (Type: Primary, Secondary) Property 2 (State: Default, Processing) I only want “State: Processing” to be available for “Type: Primary” button. I have created a Variant of “Type: Primary” button with “State: Processing”. Currently the problem is when I use “Type: Secondary” button, I can see “State: Processing” in the properties. When I select it, the button “Type” changes to “Primary”. It would be great if the “Processing” state doesn’t show up in the properties list, since I don’t have that “State: Processing” created in the component Variants.

I’ve been working on a system-driven prototype in Figma where a global control (navbar) manages the state of multiple components (cards).The goal was simple: A button click updates a global state (for example active card) Individual components react to that state Smooth transitions (Smart Animate) happen between states (closed to open) However, this currently isn’t possible in Figma without major tradeoffs.Current limitations: Variables can update global state, but components cannot respond to them in a way that triggers variant changes with animation Smart Animate only works when explicitly defined through interactions such as Change to or Navigate, not when state changes indirectly To achieve smooth animation, we are forced to duplicate entire frames or create complex variant systems, which does not scale Wha

Pinning plugins to right-click menu A new section with the plugins you pin (it’s an option when you right-click a plugin from the regular menu). I don’t think I could explain this more. Pinning plugins to toolbar I think it could look something like this:

In the competitive USA food market, attractive packaging plays a key role in influencing customer decisions, and customized Happy Meal boxes help companies stand out. They are lightweight, easy to carry, and can be designed with handles for convenience. Many brands

I’ve already started using the new slots and I find them amazing, but I think it’s very limiting to prevent the use of grid layout. 

I often need to update component instances on a specific page without affecting those on other pages. However, Figma currently requires me to go through every instance across the entire file, which is frustrating — especially when working with versions and wanting to preserve old designs. While the "Review Updates" panel could help, it actually makes things worse because instances are not listed in order. For example, instance 1 of 34 might be on Page 3, while Instance 4 is on Page 1, making it incredibly tedious to track and update only the relevant ones. A "Update on Current Page Only" option would be incredibly useful, allowing users to selectively update instances only on the active page, without affecting other pages. This would greatly improve workflow efficiency, especially for large projects with multiple design versions.Please make this a feature.Thanks!

I'm looking for a way to implement an interactive 3D viewer in a Figma prototype, and would really appreciate any help or insight. I'm currently facing the following issues:Issue 1:In some demo videos, a 3D viewer UI appears near the end with interactive controls, but it seems to be rendered in an Anima web preview, not within Figma's native prototype view. I’m trying to figure out how to achieve similar 3D object rotation and interactivity within Figma’s prototype mode.Reference Videos: Ref 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIC3Mga68hg Ref 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3ZPySpuH9o (Reference time: around 8:40)

I regularly need to work with screenshots of webpages, which can be a couple thousand pixels tall. I need these images to be actual size. Can’t do this in Figma cause it automatically scales large images down. I know there’s a plugin but this seems like a silly thing to rely on a plugin for, there should be an option native to Figma that lets us shut this function off. Or give us an option to scale the image back up to the original dimensions? (even if the quality’s going to get wrecked) This has been such a huge thorn in my side! Please & thank you!

Hi Figma developers! It turns out that exporting Figma fonts in JSON format provides the result that looks smth like this: "style": { "fontFamily": "Quattrocento Sans", "fontPostScriptName": "QuattrocentoSans-BoldItalic", "fontSize": 72, "fontWeight": 700, "italic": true, "letterSpacing": 0, "lineHeightPercent": 100, "lineHeightPx": 84.375, "lineHeightUnit": "INTRINSIC_%", "textAlignHorizontal": "CENTER", "textAlignVertical": "CENTER" }, for a page like this:
