When publishing a library, I would like an option to shows all nested elements at the top level. OR even better, when in a Figma file when working in the ‘Assets’ tab, I’d like an option in the grid view (in addition to the grid / list) which allows all elements to be displayed on the top level and not display them as nested items.I realize when publishing I can put all elements on the same page in a file and then I will have no nested items for the users in authoring when trying to pull in components. However, this makes the page too massive to work with. I have to break up the pages but when published, this make nested items which I don’t want. I want everything displayed on the top level as its SO MUCH faster for designers to easily pull in components/elements when they don’t constantly have to go back and forth between levels to find the components they need.

It’s 2026, why are links (especially figma file links) being pasted as plain text? Notion and tools similar to it show a stylized container/preview by default when a link is pasted, with the option of a hyperlink or plain text link. Not having it in Figma Design is one thing, but not having it in Figjam feels especially lacking.

Figma supports enabling/disabling some OpenType features from the UI.https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/4913951097367-Use-OpenType-features From the plugin API I can see which features are being enabled withhttps://www.figma.com/plugin-docs/api/properties/TextNode-opentypefeatures/but the property is read-only. How can I programmatically enable/disable some OpenType features?Also, is there a reason why it’s accessible on UI but not Plugin API?

Please implement AI into the variable editor. It would make re-factoring a design system infinitely easier if we had an AI that could go through and change everything to the way we need it. For example, we’ve decided we want to ‘master’ up the stroke width for field components, but now have to go through 50+ component variants telling them to alias the new master value

When assigning a variable to a component property, the search box displays both the variable name and its value, making it easy to know what you’re selecting: However, when you’re aliasing a variable from within the Variables page, the search popup does not show the target variable’s value, making it harder to confirm the correct selection: 

Hi, I absolutely love Figma Slides, but there are still some caveats (like the usage of variables that is missing). So here's the next one; editing and presenting from a mobile device using the Figma app. Whether it will be a standalone app or a feature in the current one, I want it, I need it, actually.Especially the editing part, I would like to be able to do that on tablet (it's 2025 guys, even keynote and powerpoint have it). Thanks :)

Hi! First of all-- congratulations on the release of CMS! I’m already super excited to create stuff with it and I’ve been playing around with it this morning. Hereby my humble feature requests for the future of CMS!Categories and tags with separate pages for their content. Search and date picker (for events) functionality. I would love to see component swapping supported inside CMS, so that I can pick a different component per CMS article if I want to highlight it on my list with a special component for example. (A feature like this would be ~ incredibly ~ powerful.) Or/and, the ability to change page variables in a CMS item, so you can for example change the colors of the page based on the variables set in the item. The ability to connect CMS fields to the SEO, so you can attach a meta description and social sharing image to each CMS article. The ability to hide CMS items from lists but still have them in your database and vi

Hi, I’m looking for a faster way to apply a variable without having to open the dropdown every time. It would be very helpful if we could simply type something like #80 to quickly apply a variable. This would speed up the workflow a lot. Thanks!

Auto-Layout has padding (inner spacing), but no margins (outer spacing). Currently the only 2 ways to add spacing is to: Create a spacer element or Wrap the items in another frame and apply gap spacing This creates a lot of unnecessary frames, and sometimes creates nesting so deep it goes outside the layers panel. Not sure if a technical limitation left this out of consideration in the first few versions of Auto Layout, but it would be much appreciated if it were included in a future version as it comes up as a significant limitation many times a day.

I would like to be able to move existing groups within collections in variables.e.g. i’ve created group ‘paddings’ and realised later that i’d like to move it into a different collection (from ‘brand’ to ‘responsive’). At the moment I have to manually re-enter all the values. Pain in the butt if you don’t get your design system right at first go.I would like to be able to just drag and drop.

I want to be able to reference a frame from my design system file in a Site, for example.That way the only place I need to update a design is in my design file, not in the site. (or vice versa)

In Slides, presenter mode currently only supports dark theme.However, I have trouble reading white text on a dark background — the text blurs. It's similar to how I struggle driving at night due to light blurring.This is an accessibility issue. Could you implement a light theme option for presenter mode?Thank you!

The Problem: Hours Lost to Manual Data EntryIn my daily design workflow, my team frequently builds extensive, spreadsheet-like grids for presentations. Currently, I spend hours generating realistic cell data (using external AI tools) and manually copy-pasting hundreds of individual values into Figma component inputs.The Constraint: Strict Enterprise Plugin PoliciesWhile I know community plugins exist for data generation, they are not an option for my team. My organization operates under strict security policies and has globally banned almost all third-party plugins. To solve this at an enterprise level, we desperately need a native, out-of-the-box solution within Figma.The Proposed Solution: Native Generator FunctionsI propose adding native "Generator Functions" that can be linked directly to a component’s property inputs, operating similarly to how we currently apply variables.Here is how the

Depending on the art the ruler guides are displayed on top of, the inability to change the color of the guides is also an issue. They seem to be a low opacity, which doesn’t make any sense at all to me with how I use ruler guides. Ruler guides are toggled on and off as needed. Why would I want the ruler guides to be unobtrusive and almost impossible to see? This is a real accessibility issue for designers using the Figma app. Figma needs to implement real accessibility controls by letting us select the color of UI elements such as ruler guides.

When i move my design elements/frames/etc., I expect all the pinned comments to move with them – but they don’t. instead i’m left with a bunch of floating comments (that are not attached to anything), which requires me to manually re-read each comment and move it again to its correct place. this is frustrating and time consuming. but what’s worse is when another user forgets to move the comments after they move the design elements, so when i return to the Figma file it’s very difficult to decipher the floating comments because they are not pinned to anything so i have no idea what they’re referring to. please keep Comments pinned to design elements (so moving design elements automatically moves comments).

People have been complaining about this for years. I have to add ® and ™ to strings of text in my artboards. The superscript version of the character must be the same size as the rest of the text string, or it will not be vertically aligned properly with the rest of the text. The ®™ symbols are much too large, especially in headlines, but if you reduce the font size of that character, it drops down too low and is no longer in the superscript position. In Sketch or any other proper app, you can adjust the baseline of the specific character (baseline shift) so that you can re-align it properly. You can EASILY accomplish this in CSS and create specific styling for the “sup” tag which handles this in code. Why is it nearly impossible to replicate what is easy in any other app in Figma? I’ve seen people complaining about this since 2018, so I take that as an assumption that Figma will never fix this issue? The only way to get a properly aligned and size

copy comments from a Figma file to another one while duplicating/copying content/designs.

Hi, I absolutely love that we get to customize our sticky colors, but the text color is not adjustable and is not auto set to meet wcag standards for color contrast for text, making text difficult to see. The example below shows text color choice should have been black instead of white. Is this adjustment in any of your upcoming updates?  

Currently, when using variables, in the settings you can’t select wether you want a value (for example, padding-sm) to apply to just the padding or the gap of an auto layout. Which means that when you want to select a gap variable, it shows all the padding values as well. Can we get a setting for this?

The idea is to have a stack of fallback fonts like in CSS. This is VERY useful in Asian languages such as Korean, Chinese, and Japanese, where there are several fonts, but they lack good Latin and numeric characters. In those cases, we replace those characters with a nicer font. In CSS, it is only one line. How it works: If the stack is “Avenir, Noto Sans JP”. If the character is in the first font it will use that font, if it is not there, like a Chinese character, it will jump to the next font. In Figma, we need to search for and replace text. Of course, that doesn’t work with variables. Illustrator has a more complex tool called “Composite Font”, just in case you want to take a look. The Asian design community will be very grateful to have this feature.

I think this is a great idea. I understand Figma wasn’t meant to be used for illustrations, but to be honest, the uniqueness of its vector and node system is very useful, and many of us (UI Designers) work for videogame companies, and more often than not we have to find works around some things that could easily be added into Figma. I will create another post with this, but things that come to my mind: Supporting different kinds of strokes (even if they can’t be reproduced by CSS, maybe a disclaimer or a warning next to the setting would be fine). Sticky nodes (vector’s endpoints), this shouldn’t be so difficult given you already do this in Figjma and when imported from FigJam to Into Figma the behavior is still there. Why can’t we just do it inside Figma? Ability to move the anchor point of an element.

Currently in FigJam, you can option-drag copy (MacOS) elements even when they are locked. This seems like intended behaviour, but it is really frustrating when running workshops. I create a lot of templates for people to work in, and then lock them. I expect those elements to be locked - meaning no interactions! Multiple times a workshop, I or a participant will accidentally copy the template we are working in, rather than a sticky note or other element. It’s confusing, takes time to trouble shoot, particularly when zoomed in, and happens all the time. If this is intended behaviour and it’s useful for others, then we need another solution to prevent unintended copying, maybe something like a template layer, or two-level locking (lock content, lock everything)

When exporting Figma designs to PowerPoint, I’ve noticed a few issues that affect the final presentation quality: Fonts become smaller than intended Blurred backgrounds or transparent fills don’t render properly Overall, the visual fidelity of the export is lost In contrast, the Pitchdeck plugin handles these exports beautifully—fonts stay consistent, and effects are preserved. I’d love to see if there’s a way to either improve native exporting or perhaps collaborate/merge with the Pitchdeck plugin to make the export experience seamless.This would be especially useful for teams who use Figma for presentation design and want to maintain design integrity across formats.Would love to hear if others are facing the same issue or have found a workaround!

Z-index, the order in which layers are stacked, is missing in Figma. I would so like to have tooltips, dropdown menus, etc. get on top of all content, no matter where it is put in the layer list...
