It would be nice if we can assign a role for invited users such as (Designer, Developer, Product manager, and others). After assigning a role, there should be a way to indicate their access permissions (edit, view-only, dev-mode). This would particularly be helpful for when designs are ready to be “marked as ready for dev”. For ex, when designs are “marked as ready for dev”, it will automatically send notifications to anyone with the assigned dev role.

I have recently tried to use the Preview window for quick prototyping tasks. Since I usually work with very tall frames, especially for mobile websites, the preview window’s height becomes too tall and therefore doesn’t give me the proper experience of a mobile phone or a normal-sized browser window. Right now, I can only resize the preview window by manually dragging its upper edge. For tall pages, it’s a hassle to resize the window height that way. The Preview window has a couple of options to work with such as Fit Width, Responsive, Resize window to 100%, and Reset Aspect Ratio. None of those options really help me I’m afraid. I also know that I can use one of the Prototype Devices but that becomes a problem if I mix mobile, tablet and desktop frames on the same Figma Page. I want to be able to quickly adjust the height of a preview window. For example by resizing the window either by width only or fit to the height of the screen or by being able to set a height manually via a form

Often I have different implementations of the same screen (just to see the differences look and feels), but they clutter my prototype screen because I only use one of them at a time when prototyping. It would be cool if I could swop them out when demoing as well, so my team can see my different approaches.

I’m seeing that nested component properties are now collapsed by default and there’s no way to control this. This makes these properties harder to discover for the designers using my system. I understand some people want them collapsed by default and so that change was made in UI3. I need an option to control if the nested properties are expanded or not. I’d prefer actually to be able to order these nested properties in with the parent component properties instead of separating them altogether. It doesn’t typically matter to my consuming designer if something is nested or not, they just want to use the parent component.

Hi everyone, I would like to suggest a little improvement. To improve the UX and navigation for none designers in our company, it would be amazing to make descriptions visible on their respective detail screens as well as overview screens. We are currently in a situation where our company has cross-functional team names and also general competence center team names that are not common. We also create projects based on domain area like “payments” or “charging”, here we usually add their respective Product Managers, PO etc. into the description to share with the company who is responsible for this area. The issue is that the description seems to be always hidden, doesn’t matter if it’s a workspace or project. On team level descriptions doesn’t even exist. It would be nice to improve this in future updates, I feel like we have to big white space especially between workspace icon and title which can be used for descriptions (not only this one liner because user don’t even get a tooltip whe

Figma’s slides cannot cycle between font families with the arrow keys like design files. I can’t preview the change of text on the page to that font before confirming the change. Can I preview font changes without using a plugin, or should I just wait for the update?

Hello Figma community! I believe this has already been mentioned in this forum, and I understand Figma’s policy to pay per user per team. But I think the situation where if one user is part of multiple teams, then they’re being charged per each team is a bit unfair. E.g. I might be a freelancer who has their own paid plan, but works with a few companies, who have their own Figma teams already. What I’d like to see instead of being charged per team is for shared projects to respect the team they are being shared with is already paying for a subscription. Think of Slack Connect experience: My customer I work with shares their project with me, and since I have a paid plan already, I can now see the project as shared under my team, and join it without additional charge on my customer’s side.

Currently, FigJam can sort and organize stickies that already exist, but it cannot create separate stickies based on a layer of text. Since we often make notes during usability tests, it would be really great if FigJam AI could transform the text layer with the notes into a selection of stickies containing the key takeaways from the notes.

A double click on a figjam canvas or section should add an element. This could default to sticky or whatever your last element created was. See mural for this behavior.

Hi, While sharing a Prototype how can I lock a view on a single device? I want users only to use iphone 14 pro and not to be able to switch to iphone15 or other resolution

Hi Team, I was thinking about having this feature in the layer panel to speed up searches inside groups and frames instead of expandin and then collapsing groups and go throught every layers to find what you need. See images as a reference Thanks Lorenzo Mariotto

I often customize the color for a section, so I would like to have the following functionality

Hello, I think we need a Search bar placed on top side of each page in Page column (left side), to search for a named layer. Unless we already have it and I don’t know. But when we have so many objects and layer with specified name, it might be hard to find it. Thanks

I am receiving notifications for Projects in Figma that I am not working in. In my company we are divided by teams and the Projects in Figma correspond to each team. Currently, I can’t select for which Projects I want to receive notifications from. Due to this I receive notifications - such as comment notifications - from other teams. Even in my Figma plugin for Slack, I see all the comment notifications for other projects.

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this When using PROTOTYPE > INTERACTIONS > DELAY > AFTER DELAY > 10000ms Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) DURATION can’t go further than 10000ms Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc. Would be great to be able to have more time for delays! 100000 max? 1000000? 🙂

As seen in the screenshot below, “hanging punctuation” has been activated on this text box, but the asterisk is not receiving this property. From what I can tell the only punctuation that works with this is a quotation mark. While that is a major use-case, another significant use is for Footnotes, which use a dozen or so different characters.

I have transitioned to Figma for the past 9 months and I’m loving it. However, 1 thing that bothers me is not being able to customize my own workspace like Adobe illustrator and Affinity designer. For example, I use the alignment panel a lot then I should have the ability to move these panel around. Or if I don’t use the auto layout functionality at all then I should I have the ability to hide it from the UI and bring it back if needed in future. By the way if customizable panels are going to be added in future then it should be global across all Figma files. Not scoped to 1 file. Just a suggestion 🙂 Keep up the good work.

I’ve noticed something unusual in the new Beta version: the scrollbar appears when hovering over the right panel. Despite the panel’s height being sufficient to display its content without scrolling, the scrollbar overlays the UI. In contrast, the left menu only displays a scrollbar when more information fills the panel. Could we disable the scrollbar for the right panel until it’s necessary to scroll? Alternatively, placing the scrollbar within the right side gap might prevent it from overlapping with the UI.

It would be great to be able to add all slides from a template at once. Currently, I have to add them one by one, which is time-consuming.

When in Design mode, the Layers panel is only accessible in ‘Slide view’ but not in ‘Grid view’ !

It’s nice that I can know that the value of something is “Hug”, but I also want to know what that value is.

Currently, the preview is locked to whatever dimension the design is (if your design is 1440, the prototype/preview will always bee 1440). This is fine if you’re designing for mobile, where the dimensions are largely fixed; however, it’s a nightmare for Web. Especially if you need to send the design for user testing or stakeholder feedback. If their screen dimensions are not exactly the same as the design, they won’t see an accurate representation. The preview should be ADAPTIVE to the design’s constraints and layout behavior, or else what’s the point? Framer does this beautifully and has different preview options to allow for this. Quick Note: This is NOT the same as ‘Responsive’ preview, where the design changes as you change the screen size.

I am facing a problem where I could not figure out why I can not scrolling some of frames. I contacted support and they figured out that it is because some frames were just overlays and the feature to scroll on them is not possible. So why not make it possible?

Helloo! Working in a designer web agency, i’ve found it useful to share my files with clients – but this is sometimes a double edged sword and can hit us in the back with untimely feedback/unexpected feedback, which can set us back timeline wise as clients put feedback in last minute. We’ve also found that when they’ve had access, the client has come across half baked ideas and became confused about what’s included in the project and what isn’t, and what’s just an idea. I’d like to propose an idea where an admin of an organisation can add a user, where their access will be revoked at a certain ‘date, time, etc.’ This way, clients can be set in a timeline where they can get all of their feedback and comments in, before they have their feedback revoked. I feel this would be a useful feature to automate removing access from clients at times, and to avoid making ‘client only’ files to hide certain designs from their eyes. I’ve attached a really rough mockup below: Does anyone else experie

When I tried to rotate several layers in different groups, they are multi-edited. I just want to know how to temporarily disable Multi-edit feature to give back the legacy rotating & resizing behavior? For example I want to rotate multiple shape in this logo: There are layers that are masked and placed in different groups. Previously they would be rotated as a group of selected items although they were not grouped, in other words they had the same pivot in the center of the selection. But now they are rotated individually around their own pivots. New Multi-edit feature is useful if you work on multiple frames with similar objects. But in a specific place or frame or group, it is not necessary. Those selected layers obviously are not “matching layers” at all. I also found out that objects that in the same level/group/section will be rotated the way I mentioned like in this video. But sometimes I also need them to have the same pivot.
