Is it possible the prompt result from figma make design wise to be copied in the main design file i’m not seeing any button that allows me to do that 

Hi there, I’d like Figma to detect when variables in a given Frame share the same modes, and only offer one dropdown to switch (or auto switch from the parent). Let me explain: Today, if you create a file (or Collection) A, with a variable color that has two modes, for instance color{light, dark}, and another file, or collection B, with another color-2{light, dark} Figma will not detect that they have a similar mode and will present two mode switchers, one for each color (see below) I’d like Figma to detect that those Collections share the same mode structure and group them in a single mode switch. It would be particularly useful for cases where you have items from several different brands in a single Frame but want to switch it easily to light or dark mode (a notion that all brand share). Hope that’s clear! (and it might all be made irrelevent by Extended collections…)

We have a video in our slide, but while presenting, there didn’t seem to be a way to restart the video (or pause it for that matter) - while running through the presentation to practice, we discovered that there were a few times when we’d get to that slide and the video would be halfway through already. Also, why is the Presenter Notes a thin grey bar at the bottom? That took us forever to find. 😦. Maybe add “Show Presenter Notes” to the Figma > View menu?

When I undo, I want undo only changes that I’ve made to a document, not what I’ve selected. I find the existing behavior to be unintuitive and counter to basically all other applications. However, I realize some people like it the way it is, so we can we get a user option to only include document changes in Undo?

Currently, the "Alt + WASD" shortcut for moving elements is designed for QWERTY layouts.  On French AZERTY keyboards, this becomes very awkward, since the natural movement keys are ZQSD instead of WASD.  Even when setting the keyboard layout to "French AZERTY" in Figma, the shortcuts remain QWERTY-based. This creates a big usability issue for AZERTY users, as one of the most practical shortcuts feels broken.  This would greatly improve the experience for all non-QWERTY users.   

So I am using view mode (on web browser) to see a figma file created by other designer. And it has a text which contains a link.  I can click that link to go to the destination, but I don’t want to do that. I want to copy the url of that link text. If I right click, it will only let me copy link of selection of the parent frame.Please, you should let viewer to copy the url embeded in a text. It’s crucial and very basic! Thanks.

Just a small inconvenience, and I know Figma auto-saves, but would be nice if you could ask “are you sure you want to quit” etc. if you accidentally use the keyboard shortcut to quit the desktop app.

Proposal:Enable users to save specific canvas views or areas as named "bookmarks" or presets. This would let designers jump to those areas instantly—without manual zooming or panning each time.Use Case:You're working within a large board or file and need to switch frequently between, say, “User Journey Flow,” “Header Components,” and “Footer Styles.” Instead of zooming and navigating manually, you could click on a saved view and be taken there immediately. Why it matters: Speeds up workflows, especially in complex or sprawling files. Improves navigation, reducing annoyance around repeated zooming and dragging. Supports presentation use cases, where you may need to jump to specific sections in front of stakeholders. Current workarounds: Plugins like Minimap or Saved Selections can simulate this behavior. Using dedicated frames or pages as manual navigation anchors. But no built-in native way to quickly switch between saved views exists at the moment Shoutout to chatGPT for rephr

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this We need to control access to various areas of Figma, and Closed teams help, but it’s painful to have to add people individually. I would love the ability to group users into user groups (aha!) and bulk add them to teams with the correct permissions. Individual users could be added with more permissions, as a local override, but for the most part, we could just add these groups. This would help immensely with change management and onboarding, as well as maintaining access guardrails where appropriate. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) Example: I want to add Designer X to our UXD user group. By default they gain edit access to all working teams. However, as part of that group, they’re only given view and library access to the Design System team. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or

Hi team,Variable modes are incredibly helpful for testing layout behaviors in the Editor. Typically, we duplicate frames and assign modes like Desktop, Tablet, or Mobile. While this works, it doesn’t extend well into Presentation mode.Currently: Presentation → Responsive works nicely with Auto Layout + min/max constraints. However, variable modes remain static—locked to whatever mode was manually applied to a frame. The existing “Auto” mode is limited to inheritance (children follow parent), but the parent itself still requires a manual mode switch. Feature Request:Introduce a real “Responsive Auto Mode” that automatically applies the correct variable mode based on the element’s width.  I know this might not be a fully realistic approach, since Figma can’t always know which numeric variable should be responsible for triggering a breakpoint.An alternative would be to add a “Responsive” toggle in the Variables panel, where the designer explicitly marks which variable (e.g. width, bre

I think that figma is being a complete all rounder tool as the days are going. As a UI designer I'd love to see some more changes in figma if it's possible.1. I know there's already a brush tool system. But i think that it'd be nice if we can see a complete brush tool with all the elements like masking and other stuff. using brush tool to create cool effects.2. More text styling options like illustrator. UI design nowadays knows no boundaries. to achieve that we need to do different types of styling of texts. there's a lot but there is some options missing, If those were in figma, it would have been cool.4. I know everything should not be free. But I think we should have a test of figma sites as starter plan user. If it's possible then consider it kindly.3. Lastly, I'd love to see a figma softwares AI image tracer which will trace images with all the color. trust me it is both helpful for graphics designers and UI designers.Thanks Figma team for the amazing surprises you bring up on ev

This is similar/related to an old post from 4 years ago:  I still am not seeing Descriptions shown in Dev Mode. I would expect to see it as a comment at least, or in the Properties view somewhere. This is so that a specific meaning/purpose we provide is visible for the engineers as well.Editing style: Dev Mode panel ☹️: 

Need recommendations for a reliable PET CT scan in Delhi. I’ve heard PET-CT combines two imaging techniques for more accurate results. Molecular Imaging & Therapy looks promising but I’d like to hear from someone who has actually been there. Info here: https://www.molecularit.com/services/PET_CT

It would be helpful if Figma notification previews in Slack showed the Figma page name in addition to the Figma file name. We often have multiple conversations happening across different pages within files, so knowing the specific page would provide better context. Just a thought for future updates!

Currently, when I share a link to a particular frame in Slack, the preview shows the whole canvas with many frames. I would prefer to see the shared frame in the preview instead.

When creating a new file in Figma, it would be helpful to display a “Write File Name” modal. This modal could include: A file name input field An option to move the file to a specific project/folder A “Skip for now” option This feature would streamline file organization, reduce clutter, and be especially helpful for beginners who might forget to name or organize their files right away.

There have been many times where I’m trying to compare the color values between two or more objects. However, every time I select another object the color panel disappears so I have to click on the swatch again and try to remember the values from the previous object. Sometimes I’ll just take a screenshot of the color picker values and paste them back into Figma but that’s not fun at all. One possible solution would be to make the color picker remain visible if the user ‘unpins’ it (ie. drags it away from the right panel). Then they could select the next object to see the color values and then close the picker when they’re done.

I’d like to request a feature that would help for many workflows: export comments from a FigJam board.For retros, audits, or sharing outside of FigJam, it would save a lot of time if we could export comments as a CSV, JSON, or even a simple text list.Features: Export comments (with timestamps, author, and thread structure) to CSV or JSON. Filter by time range or by author before export. Include reference to the canvas location (e.g., coordinates or object ID) for each comment. Thanks 🤘

Please add the Figma own Feature of Speech to Text

As a developer with read-only access, I don’t have any means to know/access what the Max lines should be for this text. (which from designer is set to 3)

Hi Figma team,I’ve encountered an issue when trying to apply a linear gradient to a single word inside a text layer.When I highlight just one word and apply a gradient (via the fill panel), the gradient technically applies, but no gradient handles appear on the canvas. This makes it impossible to adjust the direction, angle, or position of the gradient for that specific word.Steps to reproduce: Create a text layer with multiple words. Highlight just one word. Apply a linear gradient via the Fill settings. Try to adjust the gradient. Expected behavior:Gradient handles (start and end points) should appear, just like they do when applying a gradient to an entire shape or full text layer. I should be able to control the direction of the gradient within the selected word.Actual behavior:No gradient nodes/handles appear when the gradient is applied to only a portion of the text. The gradient applies, but I have no way to control it visually.Please let me know if this is a known limitat

It would be incredibly helpful to either display or index the filename for an image asset added to Figma as an image “Fill”. We often build website and app comps with final assets and photography (including some stock assets). We are utilizing the Image Fill feature a lot, instead of adding images and having to mask them individually. This is super convenient, but as we go to purchase final assets or reference the original filename, it is not maintained or indexed in any way. Are we just missing something? Is there an existing plugin to manage these assets?

Question, if the cell contains the public URL to the image instead of a pasted image into the cell, does that not work?

Is there a way to auto-play a Figma Slides presentation? I created a Slides deck for use at a high school career day booth and I’d like to just start it and let it go through the slides automatically and then repeat until I stop it. Any built-in or creative solutions to achieve this?
