We use FigJam to document the flow and logic of products during development. Each product may have multiple document versions corresponding to various updates. The issue arises when duplicating a file: the embedded links within the document still point to sections in the original file. Proposed solution: • Update embedded links that point to sections within the original file to instead navigate to the same sections in the duplicated file. • Retain links that point to external sections or URLs (e.g., Google Docs, product pages) without any changes.

I want to set parameters “programmatically” in order to match other layers’ parameters. For example, I want the height of layer A to be the same as the height of layer B. In some cases instead of using auto-layout, I’d rather want to set the height of B as a code {=h(layerB)}.

Please enable column headers (such as “Last Modified”) in the “Recents” view to be clickable, allowing files to be sorted in ascending or descending order based on the selected column. It would make finding relevant files a bit easier for us. Thank you for considering this request.

Currently, Figma allows users to view who made changes on specific dates and restore file versions. However, in collaborative environments, when multiple designers work on the same file, it becomes challenging to track specific changes (e.g., who modified a component, altered a style, or moved an element). This lack of granularity can lead to inefficiencies when trying to pinpoint changes to revert or discuss. Proposed Solution: Introduce a Design Change Log feature in Figma, similar to Git for developers. This log would: Provide detailed change tracking at the object/component level. Highlight who made each specific change and when. Allow users to review changes in a granular view (e.g., “Designer X resized this frame,” “Designer Y updated the text in this component”). Enable selective restoration of changes (e.g., restore only one modified component instead of the entire file). Benefits: Improves collaboration in multi-designer projects. Reduces confusion about overlapping changes

I love the new horizontal layer scrolling but still prefer the tool bar at the top of the screen especially since I’m working on a smaller Mac. The bottom floating toolbar in the middle bottom of the screen just feels inefficient in the way. I mainly use shortcut keys anyways and hardly use the toolbar. Is there anyway I could still have the toolbar at the top but still have the horizontal layer scroll feature?

Currently, after pasting an image to a named rectangle, it is automatically renamed to “image”. This is no helpful to me. It keeps me rename the layer every time I place an image to a rectangle (or other shape) layer.

Sometimes adding nested instance to a component you don’t need access to all properties of this instance. For example user wanna add existing button component to a bottom sheet component. Button component has several properties such as style, size, icon, label, etc. and all of them will be added to the bottom sheet component. But for these case the user needs only the label to be manageable, another properties should be permanent. So manageable list of properties for a nested instances will make properties layout more clear, easier to work with and will reduce number of accidental mistakes, when somebody can change property that should be permanent.

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

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! ❤️

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!

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.

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.

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?

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! 🙂

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.

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.

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?

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.

Any way to export UI design made in Figma to XAML (for Visual Studio WPF) ? Anyone found a way? Thank you in advance with any help! Kind regards

If Figma embeds some kinda CDP or spreadsheet or both into the core product its ova. Variable touches at a bunch of this, but like even further. Gimme rows and columns.

I’m really wanting to hear the AI-based summary as it’s being “typed out” on dot matrix paper.

Like it says, I want to be able to resize components in FigJam and have them adhere to their contraint rules, rather than just scaling in all directions. The use case is that I want to build a set of components for my team to use for roadmapping in FigJam so it’s standardized across the entire group and folks aren’t being forced to create their own, non-standard designs. I know I can build a FigJam template, but i want to be able to define things like roadmap item headers and descriptions, colors, statuses, etc. and then my team can just fill in the fields in the components

Long story short: I really need the eyedropper tool to recognise when I’m colorpicking a transparent color. I used to get around this by copy-pasting the fill appearance (very tedious but not impossible) and pasting it onto another object. But if I need this color to be in my variables and not on an object, the only way for me to fill in these values is to literally hand-write every hex code and opacity value separately. Like I need to have two windows open and cross-reference all these values manually. It’s madness. For context, I’m trying to import my generated custom palette from Radix UI into Figma variables. I have found various Plugins that get me half of the way there, but not all the way. Not even in combination with each other. I have: light mode & dark mode solid color scales for each mode alpha color scales for each mode I found a plugin that will generate swatches out of the CSS that I copy from Radix, but I cannot bring these swatches into Figma Variables with the mod

Hello, I use Rhinoceros3D v7 for anything vector related because it’s precise, user friendly and powerfull. I’d like to copy/paste vectors from rhino to Figma so I don’t have to export/import and create a junk file everytime I want to switch from one software to the other. Currently, I need to copy in rhino, paste in Illustrator (because rhino copy indeed the vector information), copy again from illustrator and paste to Figma, so I’m able to use a vector. If I copy from Rhino and paste in Figma, I have just an image. It would be nice to copy/paste vectors from rhino to Figma directly.

There should be a way to add critical accessibility annotations into a Figma component… for example, icons should be able to be “tagged” whether decorative or not, add alt tags… Headers should have the ability to add the correct markup. Basically, allow for designers to add properties into their designs that are not reflected on the screen… Would be AWESOME if your AI capabilities could analyse a screen and then add accessibility annotations as well… but in the meantime… ⬆️
