Suggest a Feature

I am introducing a scenario where there are multiple iterations happening even after the designs were dev ready. So in this case, I have started a new page rather than editing the previous dev ready page. So when I completed the new design and the page name for the final design is already having the dev ready icon, but it is still confusing when the previous page is also having the dev ready icon. I tried right clicking on the page but it never showed an easy way to remove the dev ready icon. instead I was forced to remove the dev ready from each of the sections within that page. It would be really great if you incorporate this small feature of removing the dev status from the page section as that would reduce the pain of individually removing the dev ready status from each sections.

In some cases, you want two drag scenarios to bring two different results. So for instance, i want when a user drags the bottom sheet handle to the bottom it closes the bottom sheet but when dragged to the top it enlarges the sheet.

Would be nice to have a searchbar in the branches panel for when you have a large list and it turns difficult to find the branch you are searching for.

Why remove variable bindings from nested instances? I don’t understand this feature, and every time I bind a child component, if I wrap another component around the child component, it gives me a reminder that the variable binding has been removed from the nested instance. But I don’t want it to unbind variables！！！

Idea is that the text block should keep all the text but everything that goes beyond the block must be clipped (the same as Clip content for frames). Ideally, an ellipsys (three dots) should be placed at the end of this block (similar to text-overflow: ellipsis in CSS).

When swapping libraries figma only swaps styles and components that are named exactly the same. If you have named components with spaced between “/” like so: “Alerts / Error” it will not match “Alert/Error” when swapping libraries. It would be nice if the spaces adjacent to the “/” in names are stripped when figma tries to match the components. Or figma tries to find components/styles with spaces and without, So you get an option if there are two matches. With huge libraries and many of them, Its a pain to go through them all and rename styles and components correctly.

Hi, I can not see any info about this. Is there any way to lock your design to be either portrait or landscape mode? Thanks!

I want to be able to drag flow names to reorder them.

Can Figma add a ‘thanks’ emoji to the small set of permitted emojis on comments. Because I’m too lazy to thank people with words and a ‘thumbs up’ in that situation doesn’t seem… grateful enough.

I reached the limit of the canvas, it would be nice for the canvas to be infinitive

I’ve looked at all the discussion threads, I think I didn’t miss a discussion about this topic if there was one. Situation: The frame names are not shown when copy and paste frames from Figma to FigJam Since so many friends requested the sync for FigJam when Figma is updated… Can we have the frame name to be updated and synced to FigJam as well? We received the request from our SQA team. They expect the frame name of Figma files can also be shown on FigJam; therefore, they can double-check if it’s the right page.

It is really frustrating trying to navigate around Figma. I expect the left side panel to be a directory structure. I don’t like having to click “all teams” (I’m only part of 1) and click through card-style links. Sometimes I’m taken to a page and I don’t know how I got there or have a clear mental model of “where” i am in Figma.

Would be great to be able to set certain elements on a FigJam board as a reusable component. Use case: I’m currently looking at competitors. Across various regions, some competitors are repeated in various regions, each competitor card has a set of information on it, that I now have to repeat multiple times unnessarily. This kind of use case in FigJam happens a lot with me where I need to reuse a component on the board I am on, and am not able to. I know I can bring components in from a Figma file, but that’s not the same, and doesn’t work great.

To the Product Team, from a Figma user in Japan: Language settings for Figma and FigJam: Figma and FigJam are currently designed to operate in the same language. However, in the context of Figma’s design work, English is commonly used, while FigJam often employs Japanese to facilitate collaboration with non-designers and clients. As a suggestion, introducing the capability to independently set the language for Figma and FigJam could enhance user convenience. For instance, allowing users to set Figma in English and FigJam in Japanese would be a specific request. We would appreciate your consideration of this proposal. Thank you. from HIGEAN.

I often click a frame and get its URL to paste into a Jira ticket. Right now, I have to click Share, then Copy Link. My instinct is to just hit Command + C after I select the frame. But when I paste that into the ticket, it pastes all of the frame’s text rather than the frame’s URL.

For designing accessibility states in components i would love to add an inside and outside border to one single element. Does anyone have a solution / work around for this or could this be a new feature.

We can tie the same functionality to different components no need to create separate variables.

Cursor chat is a great way to quickly communicate or interact with other stakeholders in the design file. However, most non-designers are not familiar with how to use it. I recently made a card for it and added it to the Quick Tips section in FigJam. It would be useful to have that pre-added.

At my org we have separate pages within a single file for our design scratchboard/sandbox and official designs that we want stakeholders to see and/or review. It would be nice to be able to control which pages are actually visible to non-editors in order to prevent wandering eyes and people getting confused about what to look at.

First Idea: This sounds crazy. I’d love to suggest if Figma could develop a watch app so designers who create app for both WearOS and WatchOS could interact with thier designs without having to use third-party platforms for prototyping. The app I am suggesting is just like the traditional mobile app that allows designers interact with the interfaces while they design. “Mirror Section” to be precise. Second Idea: Hey Figma, could you please add frames for wearables running on Google WearOS (e.g Galaxy Watch5, Gen 6 Wellness and Summit)? I loved the experience I got when prototyping the UIs for Apple Watch. What do you guys think? Kindly share your thoughts please. Thanks!

Imagine the ease of using generative fill inside the Figma UI. Not having to wait for the whole launching screen from Photoshop, create a new board, import the image, and make a selection, etc. They could also have a “remove background” plugin. Illustrator could implement a vectorization plugin. The possibilities are endless. It still wouldn’t make their software obsolete, as there would be a lot more granular things you could do with each app. But it would simplify a lot of Figma users’ workflows. Not to mention, they would likely dominate the plugin store.

“As a developer I want to filter the list of screens in the section Ready for development based on the last version that was developed so that I can only see / focus on the screens that were edited” See attached screens in sequence 1, 2, 3…

First off, let me say that for this post I am using the term “panels”(perhaps mistakingly) to refer to the two UI columns in Figma on the left (containing Layers and Assets) and the right (containing the Design and Prototyping tools). They are contained within the window and are fixed and inflexible. By "palette,” for this post, I am referring to the UI elements in many Adobe applications (but not XD) that are like mini-windows. You can move them around and resize them freely. And show and hide them individually and at will. And save your arrangement of palettes in order to have more than one. One of the biggest problems I have with Figma (and frankly, XD) UI is these panels: 1. Tools and functions come and go depending on what exactly is selected. I find myself frequently searching for a button or a menu that jumps up and down within the panel and sometimes disappears. If the panel were a palette, then I would immediately see the item I’m loo

When I drag a new interaction from a layer to a frame, I would love to have “Open overlay” as an implicit, slightly magical setting, if the target frame is smaller size than the origin one. (I am sure you can define it more precisely, the point is I keep changing implicit “navigate to” to “open overlay” a bit too often and I feel it is unnecessary.) Thanks for considering! 💞
