Better Vector drawing support

I currently use Figma mostly for UI’s. However I have to switch to illustrator to make icons, icons that could have simply been made in Figma. This doesn’t only affect the pen, but also simply things such as the lines. All blue lines in images are the pen tool, all white lines are just normal lines. Here are my QOL suggestions: Add length to straight pen lines. It’s a very simple feature to add, but makes it drastically easier to use the pen tool. Add angle to straight pen lines. Unlike normal lines, pen lines don’t show up in the sidebar. So you can’t see it’s angle. It would be very helpful if that was shown in some way. A way to modify the angle would also be great, but that’s a lot more work to implement. Option to Show & Snap the distance between points in the editor. They currently have a very simple implementation of this already. However, its very lacking. If you look at this example: You will see that the lines snap together. However it doesn’t snap horizontally b

Swap variables in library

Hi All, we currently use the swap library feature for our styles. We were wondering tho if there is going to be support for swapping variables in the future as well? I know that Figma is currently working on extended collections, but the current omission of swapping variables based on a different library seems a bit weird

Show previews of variable values during selection

When defining tokens with primitives, currently you have to just remember your primitive definitions. It would be nice if we had a subtle little preview while hovering.

Request for Essential Figma Shortcuts: "Hug content", "Fill container" and "Fixed width"

Hey Figma Community! I wanted to suggest adding keyboard shortcuts for “Hug content”, “Fill container” and “Fixed width”. With the new design, these options are now in a dropdown, and having shortcuts would save so much time—potentially making our workflow 30% faster! Imagine using these shortcuts on Figma Creator Micro or other external keyboards—how cool would that be? If you agree, please like this post so Figma can see the demand and implement this feature. Thanks for your support!

Ability to navigate forward, back, and to specific slides with buttons in Figma Slides

Figma prototyping would be really useful to have in Figma slides. I don’t mean embedding a prototype on a slide, I mean things like the ability to put a button on a slide that takes you forward, back or to a specific slide. Some examples of how this could be used: Back and forward arrows you can click to go back / forward Table of contents Creating carousels of information within a slide Hover states and other interactions to make slides more engaging I know you can get the URL of a slide and add it as a link to text, but that’s very hacky and doesn’t work for something like an actual button or an icon. Basically bring prototyping functionality that’s already in Figma to Figma Slides. In my opinion that’s a big reason why so many people were using Figma for presentations in the first place.

Keyword search inside (custom) FigJam sticker library + add multiple

The FigJam toolbox to add stickers could be improved imo (e.g. bring back dock & resize ;-)). For custom FigJam sticker libraries, it would be nice to also have a keyword search bar at the top inside the library. To only search within a specific library. We have a library with stickers for low fidelity mockups for example, I would like to search only in that when creating a mockup. It would also be handy to select and drop a bunch of stickers on the board at once. If you could search and filter, then drag to select multiple, this would be very helpful. Or even just a way to select multiple items by clicking and then dropping them.

Plans to make branch name searchable?

Not sure if this would be better under Product Feedback, but are there any plans to add branch names either to the File search index or as a separate search category? We’re looking adopting branching and would use Jira ticket numbers probably in the branch names, and being able to search and find the file containing the matching branch would be a huge time saver.

Paste first item at x:0 y:0

It bothers my OCD to no end that the first item pasted into a page is not given the coordinates of x:0 y:0

Show me current library color selection when I'm trying to change colors

Would be nice to show which color I’m editing inside the library color selection panel. This is shown in the “selection colors” section when I click on an element, but when I click into this color and another panel appears for me to change that color, I would like to see what color is being selected in that panel simply because visual indicator and name of color aren’t enough. I still have to squint or read.

Comments Visible to Anonymous Prototype Users

In order to help guide a client or stakeholder through a design when my team isn’t available, we use comments to explain our decisions. We recently noticed that anonymous viewers of prototypes can no longer view comments without having an account. In our use case, users won’t need to respond to comments as they’re used as a guide, which makes signing up only to read them very inconvenient and a big friction point. It would be great if there were a way that those anonymous users can be allowed read access to the comments in the file. If they wish to leave a comment, then they could either sign up/login to an account, or use something like the solutions offered in Easier access for commenters. Without this, we will be forced to find a new solution to guide users through our decision-making process without needing them to watch/skip around a long screen recording or us having to remake all pages and comments in a PDF or Invision.

Private properties only visible to designers?

I’m not sure if there’s a way to implement this today. I understand that properties are a shared language between design and dev. However, I can see how design teams may benefit from having additional props that would help with design productivity if we can use additional properties or variants that only we can see and use in designs. Example below of boolean props to show/hide additional tabs. Devs don’t need to see these props, but it helps designers quickly show/hide more as needed for their own projects. Does it even make sense to use props this way? Either way, I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on it. Thanks!

Carry over annotations from Component to Instances

It would be great to be able to apply annotations to elements within components and allow them to also be included in instances. For this we need current simple instance-level annotations as well as component-level annotations that are included with instances. Annotations (Component/Instances) Annotations (Instance)

I have dyslexia + astigmatism and i'm having a hard time with UI3

Hello, I don’t mean high contrast as in AAA inverted contrast. Just a bit darker borders etc. so I can visually can pick stuff easier. Also have to say, not having accessibility within tags section made me a bit left out 😦 I believe in Figma though 🙂

Control nested components properties

Please make it possible to control which properties of nested components (atoms) can be used in higher components (molecules). What if I use same nested component in different objects and I don’t need some properties in both of them? What if I don’t need some booleans which is part of variants of that atom in molecule? Please fix it, thank you.

Editable labels on Alignment Live interaction Figma Slides

It would be great if the “strongly disagree”, “Neutral” and “Strongly agree” labels could be changed in the Alignment scale of the Live interaction component in Slides. We use it for various things - e.g. to check-in on how the team feels, stress-levels etc, and the current labels don’t always make sense.

Better visual/interaction of text style groups

Can we please add indentation to the style group members? It’d be even better if we can have expand/collapse of text style groups. As it stands today, it is so easy to select the wrong text styles because they all look like they are on the base level in style organization/grouping. Some simple indentation will do the trick.

Admin: add "Network access" column in the list of plugins

As an admin, I would like to see “network access” for every plugin that is approved in the organisation. Sometimes plugin creators change these settings and it’s hard to track it individually. Please add a column with “network access” in Admin / Resources / Approved plugins (for both requested and approved).

Figma Slide feature request - Slide Animations

It would be nice to have the ability to add animations to the elements on the slide instead of only between slides. Of course you could duplicate slides and remove the parts you want to progressively reveal but that could quickly clutter the grid.

Changed behaviour

Until now I had access to every asset in my file and plugins just by pressing Shift + I. Now if I want to use any plugin I need to take the mouse and select the option from the toolbar. This is very frustrating and breaks my whole workflow. I want to know why this is a better option.

So I have this document that we use for one-pagers in my company. It exists in portrait, but I’m taking an existing one and making it landscape.

So far I’ve tried removing the grids and resetting them up shutting down Figma and restarting closing all tabs and reopening needed tabs switching on/off grid view I’ve turned the colour of the grid opacity to 100% All result in Nothing Any help would be great

Show manually marked "unread" comments under "all unread"

Can their please be an update so that when you mark a comment as “unread” in a design file, it will be reflected in the notificiation thread under the bell in the file browser view? Otherwise, how else could you productively use the feature without constantly opening files to check for unread comments? Attached is what I see even if i mark a comment as “unread.” This seems not right to me. Share an idea figma Feedback

Mention (@) everyone involved in my project

I’ve had this problem for a few months now. I used to be able to @ everyone involved in a project of mine. Over time, I’m only able to @ fewer and fewer people. Now, I can only @ one person in the project. Is this a known bug or issue?

Improve Slide Deck Delete Function

Hey! I’m a long-time Figma user and I’m finding the ability to delete objects on Slide Decks’ is frustrating. Here is what I’m doing: Select Group Press Delete on the Keyboard Nothing happens. It deletes the scale words (1x). This is extremely annoying as you would expect it to function like how the old Figma UI would. Figma, PLEASE FIX!
