Need to be able to remove access to the file by entering list of email addresses

I am managing access of 80+ people to the one large file. I need to be able to enter list of the emails and select “remove” in the same way as I can Share Edit, Share View. Please.

Organic connector line

It’d be cool if there was an option to display the connector line as organic (vs straight or squared currently), as they are easier to read on more complex mapping.

[Feature Request] Arbitrary CodeSyntaxPlatform values

It would be really useful to have custom CodeSyntaxPlatform values. We’ve just created 100s of variables in code and used Tailwind tokens for the WEB platform, but it obviously it makes no sense when CodeGen is showing CSS (i.e. Web): It’s fine to have some core platforms, but being able to assign syntax for arbitrary platforms make a lot more sense: variable.setVariableCodeSyntax('WEB', `#${hex}`) variable.setVariableCodeSyntax('TAILWIND', `${prop}-${key}`) Ideally, there would be a UI for this, too: Thanks.

Getting feedback for slides without other users seeing it

We used slides to build a deck that we send out to job candidates as an outreach document. Ideally we would like to get feedback from candidates, but don’t want them to see what others answered.

Adding elements to component instances

I see this question has been asked before, but I’m wondering if anything has changed (looks like it was last asked in 2022). Say I have a master component containing 4 separate ‘blocks,’ with each block including an icon, body copy and a link. If I instert an instance of that component in my design, I know that I can easily delete one of the blocks and the component will adjust with no issues, but what if I want to add in say a 5th block…are we still unable to do that?

Improving the avatar & profile management via Gravatar - Gravatar Quick Editor & pre-filling profiles

Figma is supporting Gravatar for the default avatar. There are two new features Gravatar recently launched, that could enhance the current experience. Full disclosure, I am from Automattic, and I am working on the Gravatar project team. New Gravatar API - Profile as a service The new Gravatar API supports more than just avatar images based on an email address. It enhances user profiles, simplifies onboarding, and personalizes user experiences. For example, in Figma, it could - for users that have a Gravatar profile - pre-fill profile information like name, location, “about me,” verified social media links, and more. Gravatar Quick Editor This new feature could simplify how Figma users update their avatars and profile data via Gravatar. The new Quick Editor allows users to directly edit and manage their Gravatar profiles within third-party platforms. The experience is similar to using a familiar payment service provider like PayPal or Stripe. Users click on a link, authenticate their ac

Component updates limited to a page

I need this desperately. We document all of process in Figma, so I need to keep old versions without updates so we can see the progress on the project. I would like to be able to apply component updates to a specific Figma page, not everywhere!!

Native Figma for Windows

Create your own Windows application. At the moment, Figma only works over the Internet, which greatly impacts performance, especially on older computers. Essentially this is the same browser, only with a closed address bar. There is no point in downloading the full desktop version if it is no different from the web version. Please make a full-fledged native application that will work better than the web version. Thank you for your attention!

Bring back independent object W + H within auto layout

When using auto layout the new UI update has moved the current width and height of a selected object to behind a hover state. Width and height only accessible via the hover state of the auto layout types (fixed, hug, fill). I often use the actual W and H of elements as a sense check for ensuring the design works within our design system. Please bring back the independent readings.

Arrows should not be forced to snap to the edge

I decided to try out the beta to give some feedback on a design. I want to point an arrow from a sticky note to the back button in this screenshot (using screenshots bc we are auditing a deployed project): But it looks like the end of the arrow is locked to the edge of the image. I come from Miro. In Miro, you are able to point an arrow to the inside of an image / element. It will still snap to the edge, but when you drag further, it will un-snap.

Optimizing the Color Picker Panel for Small Monitors

Hello. Recently, I’ve been using my laptop with a small monitor and have noticed some issues affecting my workflow. I’ve recorded a video to demonstrate the problem - https://files.fm/f/z2n7ugrkmz . It concerns the color panel when selecting gradient colors. Each time I click on a color, I need to drag the color panel to the right, away from the layout. However, when I click on the second color, the panel jumps back to its original position, and I have to move it again. Wouldn’t it be more convenient if the panel remembered the position where the user initially placed it? This would be very helpful. Constantly moving the panel is quite annoying, especially when working within a single gradient. Please consider updating the panel to make it more convenient for those of us working on laptops. Thank you!

Use ctrl + tab to switch to most recent tab

Ctrl + tab should switch between most recent tabs rather than switching between tabs sequentially.

Grouping feature

When I select two objects and click Ctrl+G to create a group, it creates two separate groups out of two objects. The same issue is with auto layout.

Figma Slides - Dynamic Text Component

At minimum there needs to be a way to dynamically add in the slide number, but it would be great if there was a set of dynamic inputs: Current slide # Total slide #'s Date Author Collaborators Progress bar File name …there’s probably more I’m not thinking of.

Ability to click under an overlay

I am using an overlay while hovering to show a tooltip on a clickable object, but when the overlay is opened I can no longer click on the button. Is there any way to allow objects to be clicked while there is an active overlay.

UI3 - adjustments to flexibility of panels and toolbar

I wish the new UI had more flexibility to it. The containers are floating now but I can’t actually do anything with them. I would like to be able to have the option to either dock the containers or be able to grab onto them and move them around my screen wherever I see fit. I think this would be a cool opportunity that is provided by the UI3 changes. As it stands currently the toolbar being forced at the bottom is definitely my least favorite part of UI3.

Allow for linking to Obsidian within Figma files

We use Obsidian for our internal documentation and frequently share with one another links that start with obsidian://. Unfortunately, Figma sees this link type as invalid and, therefore, we must then paste it in as one big ugly blob. It would be nice for Figma to recognise that there are other protocols being registered on a computer and could allow these types of links in our design docs.

Give us a way to snapshot prototypes and send snapshot links

I wish Figma had a way to snapshot certain prototype interactions and create a link to that snapshot for review and approval, or add relevant documentation. This would make it so I don’t have to build redundant static mocks. Prototyping is far more powerful with variables, but means you can only see some interactions when viewing a prototype. This can make it difficult when submitting certain designs for other departments to review. We are currently finding the need to make the prototype for devs, then also mock up another static version to send for review, as reviewing prototypes are harder for our compliance process that needs static versions for documentation purposes.

Dev Mode Annotation: How do I avoid my text to be read as a Markdown?

Sometimes, I need to give more details about tagging an userflow for GA4, for example. But when I have text between two “_” (underlines), Annotation read that as an Italic one. Is there a way to disable it?

Ability to specify format of Variables Code Syntax

I was very surprised to see the code syntax for variables require editing every single variable one by one… like many folks, we are mapping to our design tokens and use programmatically transformed naming. Using regular expressions (or any other kind of replace and format) for syntax would solve for: namespacing before the transform (which definitely should be able to be aliased to a string variable — could even be at the collection level) moving a variable’s grouping doesn’t change its syntax automatically, I see no way to deal with this currently except to delete and rename in the syntax every single time (while hoping you don’t miss any) specifying the separator potential to rearrange the group order, exclude levels of grouping from the syntax name, etc. ability to make other format changes that may be wanted in the future. At the very least I was expecting some form of control over what the separator is, but it’s just “/“ (which doesn’t even match the behavior of the transformati

FigJam Nesting Flows

As a Product Designer, scripting flows is where I spend majority go the time. I can’t show a huge flowchart to the C-suites, and I can’t show the rough outline flow to the designers. It would be super awesome if we could have expandable cards with each card having a flow within it. Anything from links leading to subsection to an expanded view or a side pane.
