There is currently no way to give Figma Make files a cover thumbnail. For organizations that use thumbnails to help provide visual structure to their Figma work, this is an essential missing piece. 

I’d like to be able to choose a thumbnail (either a frame from the video, or upload a thumbnail) for an object that has Video fill. Currently Figma uses the first frame of the video as the thumbnail, and if that video starts all black, then the thumbnail is just black. It will show fine in prototype view or mirror once the video starts playing, but when you are editing it would be helpful to see a frame of the actual video so you can adjust properties of elements (e.g. colors, opacities, gradients) and see what they’ll look like composited with video.

Hey, guys! Recently I start to prototype an UI for LCD display device. It doesn’t have any pixel opacity control, only pure contrast essentially. I discovered Figma doesn’t have any way to turn off anti-aliasing for vectors. So ofcourse I became frustrated. Such cool editor and still don’t have basic things. Guys, we need to cover this.  

Can we have the feature to apply variables to X and Y axes

Hi,I'm working on a Figma Slides project that requires animating text line by line within a single text box, but I've encountered a limitation. Currently, Figma only allows us to animate entire text boxes as single units, regardless of how many lines of text they contain.It would be incredibly useful if we could apply different animations to individual lines of text that are separated by line breaks/returns within the same text box. For example, having line 1 fade in, then line 2 slide in from the right, and line 3 scale up—all within a single text box.This would enable more sophisticated text animations without requiring designers to split text into multiple separate text boxes (which creates maintenance headaches when content changes).Has anyone found a workaround for this? Or could the Figma team consider adding this capability in a future update? Or is it already there and I’ve just missed it?Thanks for your help!

It would be great if Figma allowed users to change their live collaborative cursor into an emoji. When several people are working together without being on a call, this would make it easy to quickly express reactions, like turning your cursor into a 👍 to say “good job” to a product manager or designer. It would add a lightweight, fun, and non-intrusive way to communicate during collaboration.

For years, I’ve been really missing/wanting the ability to create nested folders in figma projects!

Some quick context: I recently created a basic Figma slides template. After using the template & theme to create an actual presentation, I identified some new slides that I would like to include into the original template. When copy pasting the slides that used the template into the original template file, it created a duplicate template with the same name for the slides that were pasted in, even though they used the original theme of the template. The main issue I have here is that when swapping the template to the original, it randomly shuffles the colors. So I have to adjust the entire slide. I feel like updating templates over time based on real usage is pretty common, and the current behavior makes it rather awkward. Thanks!

Would love if you could add the ability to add a delay on button click to trigger an interaction. Often we’ll have a message or an interaction that doesn’t appear until the completion of some API calls or processing in the background. Being able to add a delay on button click would give me the ability to get the feel for what a possible interaction / feature would actually look like in a prototype or wireframe. Feels like a feature you might want on any interaction…software isn’t always fast 😉

Document organization needs more functionality. I should be able to create sub folders under projects and sub-sub folders, etc as needed. This flat organization doesn’t allow for nuanced file organization that is needed. Please add this functionality ASAP!

Today: As an agency, we’re frequently starting new projects for new clients. We’ve evolved a set of best practices for Figma file organization, per-client design systems, etc. These best practices have been captured in a Starter Project project in Figma. However, to use this Starter Project each designer must duplicate each file in the Starter Project individually and then move them over into a new project. Idea: We’d love to see Figma support duplicating projects in addition to the existing file duplication functionality. This would be a small but noticeable improvement in efficiency for spinning up new client projects.

I think it would be amazing if we could export frames/images right from the Figma mobile app. There could be an export feature similar to desktop version and user could simply choose where they want to save the exported file to.

Quite often, in a complicated flow, it would be useful to get the name of the frame currently displayed in the preview mode.

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:

Hi, We are working on a pixelart project and figured out it would actually speedup our workflow A LOT if it was possible to disable Anti-Aliasing everywhere for viewing, editing and exporting. Having the option to disable it per object could also be interesting. Is this something you guys could add? Thank you very much.

As a designer, I incorporate multiple design systems into a single file, and some of these design systems may share the same type styles (e.g., font name, size, etc.). When scrolling, I prefer to keep a sticky header at the top instead of a scrollable one. It’s confusing that I’m on which design system. then i have to scroll to the top to see on what design system I’m in.

Searching for a component takes so long for everything to load, sometimes what i want shows up after i put in the first 4 letters of search but because I’m in the middle of typing it disapears as soon as I type another letter and then it disapears & I have to wait like 4s for everything to load once again. If the dev team could spend time optimising it that would be soooo good! Thanks

So I have this document that we use for one-pagers in my company. It exists in portrait, but I’m taking an existing one and making it landscape. When I take the original page and rotate it 90 degrees, the grids disappear. So far I’ve tried removing the grids and resetting them up shutting down Figma and restarting closing all tabs and reopening

It gets very messy having all the web pages placed on a single canvas, especially with so many components, CTAs, and fonts mixed together. Is there a way to separate them—similar to the Design page—so everything can be organized more clearly?

Hi Figma,Would it be possible to get an integration with v0.dev?My ideal workflow would be greatly streamlined if I could connect v0.dev to Figma and take my frontend prototype and import everything directly into Figma. This would save a lot of time for myself and my UIUX Designer that I hand off initial prototypes to.Thanks

Now that the glass effect has been released (which, by the way, is amazing), it's time to remember the 9-slice feature, which still has not been implemented natively. I'm talking about functionality similar to what exists in Unity. In this system, an image is marked with guides — without being sliced into separate parts — so that it can be stretched without distorting the corners. Unity, by the way, allows not only stretching the middle sections but also tiling them. Yes, it's possible to achieve this functionality now using plugins in Figma, but all of them work by slicing the image into parts, which makes updating these images complicated. It's often easier to create a new one than to edit an existing one.Since this functionality is very common in game development and mobile game design, it would be great to have compatibility with Unity for this feature. That way, the same image could be used both in Unity and Figma. This would greatly simplify the pipelines and effectiven

In presentation mode, it would be extremely useful to click on any image—or even a grouped block of images and text—and have it expand instantly into a larger, interactive view. This allows you to zoom in, highlight specific details, and truly engage with the people on the call, rather than being constrained to static slide layouts. Pitch already does this brilliantly, and it’s surprising that no other presentation tools have adopted such a simple yet powerful interaction. It transforms a passive presentation into an active, collaborative discussion.

Text-style overrides like bold, underline, … won’t work on instances properly, now the instance must be rest for the bold overrides to come though. So a lot of screens needs to be rechecked and manual work is needed everywhere the instance is used. Any solutions for this?
