Stickies in Figma

Please add sticky papers in Figma file as well, like one you have in FigJam, because sometimes you need to brainstorm on wireframes stage already and that would be very easily with these sticky papers.

Plugin API: Allow InstanceNode update

Please allow instances in Plugins to have access to the update functionality available in the sidebar. This way it would be possible to e.g. update all the instances part of the current selection of the user or part of a specific page.

Pop up a contextual menu when clicking on an object

Command-clicking on an object name in the layers menu brings up the contextual menu - copy, rename, create component, etc… Why not apply this behavior to the object itself, on the artboard?

Interactions popup - Hierarchy is hard to understand

I feel like this modal could really do with some icons and work on the hierarchy to make it easier to quickly use - its so low contrast and everything looks the same. I’ve used it thousands of times (the pop up from the sidebar before it was this popup on the canvas) and do something wrong pretty much every time More specifically ‘On Click’ looks like the title of the popup and I click ‘Change to’ almost every time when I want to change it to e.g. Hover but I think the whole thing could do with a rethink especially when there is so much space (since the popup is so tiny) to work with in adding labels, icons, etc!

Show name of sticker variant in Figjam

When importing a library from Figma into FigJam, I would also like to see the name of a component’s variant below each sticker thumbnail. Currently I find it hard to distinguish between each variant as the thumbnail is too small. If the variant’s name was visible too it would make it a lot easier.

Add Ruler, Compass and other geometrical tools

Just makes it easier to draw lines and angles, like in Microsoft Whiteboard

Select all prototype connections via select-enter-enter keystroke

There’s the ability to select ever-deeper child components by clicking enter to go down each level. I propose that when a user is in Prototype mode, this behavior should select all the prototype connections. This would allow you to make a large selection and change all the shared parameters of the prototype connections (for example, changing the ms duration of all smart animates)

Define own user color for collaboration

Hi people, When we are working in our team in a Figma Design file, it happens that the cursor / user color of the team members are often changed. Sometimes my co-worker is yellow, sometimes gray, sometimes green. It would be cool for everyone to have their own set color so I don’t have to read the name next to the cursor every time! Kind regards Daniel

Project Thumbnail View Suggestions

Hi folks, here’s a suggestion: When I hover over the cluster of file cover thumbnails we now see in the Team view, and you hover over 1 specific file, I would rather see the file thumbnail expand to be legible so I can read what is on the file cover. That would let us create covers with information about what is in the file for a quick view, not just it’s filename as appears now. Thanks, Ben @BenKopf_UPS

🌟 Adjust fixed size variables 🌟

It would be great if a component has fixed size variable, that you can still select other options within that collection/group. For example I have an input field and have several sizes of height. However, the only way to change it is to detach 😦 What is interesting is that you can adjust the frame of the component without detaching 🤔

Tables in Figjam ONLY recognise text

Objects placed in tables need: postits, highlights,etc aren’t recognised as part of the table. So if i have a postit in a table, and then add rows above, the posit will STAY where it is rather than sticking to the box it was put in.

Multiple steps for back interaction

The idea The back interaction brings you back to the previous frame, but sometimes you want to step back multiple frames. I suggest adding a number to the back action. Problems with workarounds If you have access to advanced prototyping features, you can stack multiple back actions in the interaction, but it will use the same animation from the navigation interaction that got you there in the first place. If you stack five back actions, it will play five animations, which looks horrendous. You may also ask, why don’t you just navigate back to your desired frame? Because it breaks the navigation history. Say you have frames 1 through 5. You want to use the back button on frame 5 to go back to frame 2, but frame 2 also has a back button, which then will lead you back to frame 5 again, when it should take you to frame 1 where the prototype originated from. Alternative solutions Add a toggle to the navigate action that clears history. Say you’re using a navigate action to go back to frame

Code snippets on prototype for tool integration

We have conditional prototype, what is great, could we now have ways to get usage data from Figma? Like add google analytics snippets for see usage on each screen, or some heatmap tool like clarity or hotjar.

Choose image

Hello @Figma_Support , I’m currently working on a project which uses many component instances with images inside them. My task is to swap the images to other images which are already imported in my Figma file however the only choice I have is Choose Image which is importing again. It’s a pain. It would be cool if we could choose an image from the viewport, a bit like what we can do with the colour eyedropper tool. Thanks!

FigJam Feature Request: Figma Design System Integration

Would love to use other type/fonts in FigJam so we can use our or our clients styles to tailor the branding of our presentations and workshops. Being able to leverage the Figma Design system would be preferable, so governance is possible (color, type etc) Related, allow for the “sticky note” to have a customizable color like the shapes.

Create a User Testing Mode

Looks like this one was asked before, but i’d like to suggest again that Figma create a User Testing Mode for prototypes. Something that is easy to integrate with user testing platforms that removes unnecessary UI elements, and adds the ability to add feedback within the prototype using the comments feature.

Simple math operations in number vars

Instead of just assigning numeric vars from one collection to another, we might do simple math operations with them, and in such way create very functional systems. In many design systems we have so called “golden numbers” which function as multiplicators for other values. e. g. : I have some atomic var: var: gridSize: “6”; And then I can have this functional var: var: padding: mode1: [gridSize]*1, mode2: [gridSize]*2, mode3: [gridSize]*3 And this way, if I change the baseGrid value, all others will automaticly update accordingly. And thi sis something with like tons of awesome.

Bulk editing of nested properties

As a user, I need bulk editing of nested properties. As you see in the attached files, I have 2 of the same components with nested properties. But if I select more than one of them - nested properties will disappear and I will see only properties related directly to the current component.

In prototyping mode could you please consider adding background blur to the overlay?

In prototyping mode for opening an overlay there is the ability to add a background (ie; 40% tint of #000). It would be nice to also be able to blur the background.

LAUNCHED: Elements now stick to the top when vertically scrolling in prototyping

Currently the only function of fixed positioning on an element is to make it persistent in the same spot at all times. While this is useful the majority of the time, there are instances where it would be helpful to have an element become fixed when it scrolls into view or reaches the top of the screen. For example, there could be a web page that has a secondary navigation below the hero that will become fixed when it reaches the top of the screen and be persistent for the rest of the scroll depth. Then when a user scrolls back up, the element releases from the fixed position when it reaches its original position. You can see this in effect on this page: Develop custom experiences with the Zendesk Platform | Zendesk Sunshine. It could also be used in more advanced manners such as multi-level parallax scrolling. This would be very helpful for both engineering and stakeholders to understand functionality, especially when the designer isn’t there to describe it to them. It would also prove

Make Variable UI Accessible as a Figjam Like component in a Design File

Hey there, I was playing around with the new variables Beta. I find it cumbersome to use, especially when on a small screen. I believe it could be great if it could detached from the UI into a standalone component in the actual artboard. This way it could grow and there could be a structured overview of all variables at a glance. Here’s a mockup as a screenshot: It could be only as an overview as well, to prevent multiple points of inputs.

Global search

It would be a nice feature maybe to have a general search no matter in which file/tab you are (desktop app). Similar to macOS spotlight search .
