I got the issue that I could not extend the column span of a layer if it stands at the end of row in Grid.I understand that a layer’s colspan cannot exceed the maximum number of cols, but it should have been automatically wrapped to the next line when the colspan number is still valid.Can you help to investigate this? I have found a workaround (at the end of each video), but it is time-consuming.

When exporting variant names, the file name becomes a combination of all the variant properties. There is no way to control the variant export name, which is especially difficult for developer hand-off. In this example, I have a back icon variant group (Named “Back”) containing both an Apple and an Android variant of the back icon. If I then go to export the Apple variant as an SVG, The variant export name then defaults to “OS Type=Apple.svg” It would be even worse if I had multiple properties. For example, having two more properties could result in a variant name export as “OS Type=Apple, Direction=Left, Style=Line.svg” This is a very poor naming convention, especially for icons. What I would like to have is the ability to control the name given to each variant export. In the above example, I would like the Apple icon to export as the name “back.ios.svg” and the Android icon to export as “back.android.svg”. This way, our developers can export assets as needed directly from Figma wi

Hello!I was going through our team files today, and organizing some that we shared with other vendors. I realized for one of the projects, we needed a ‘draft’ page for our team to ideate and brainstorm there, but didn’t want the vendor to actually see the WIP.I was wondering why isn’t there a page-level permission for viewers? This way I can hide / lock the ‘playground’ or draft page within a file from non-designers!

Hi there! I would like to know what Figma is going to do to comply with the US sanctions against russia regarding design software coming into effect in September. I haven’t seen any new updates on the topic. It seems like the old approach described here will be in violation of the new sanctions. For example, Notion has already communicated here that to comply with the US sanctions they will restrict access to their platform for all users in russia. Please vote for this topic to draw Figma’s attention to this serious matter.

Hello Figma Team,First of all, thank you for building Motion. It has made it much easier for designers to create engaging animations directly inside Figma.One feature that would significantly improve Motion is a built-in Typewriter (Auto Typing) text animation.Currently, designers who want text to appear letter by letter have to create complicated workarounds by splitting text into individual layers or manually animating masks and keyframes. This becomes especially time-consuming for longer paragraphs or multiple text elements.I propose adding a native Typewriter animation with customizable controls such as:Character-by-character typing Word-by-word typing Adjustable typing speed Start delay Blinking cursor (optional) Cursor styles (line, block, underline) Delete/backspace animation Pause after completing a sentence Support for multiline paragraphs Compatibility with existing Motion keyframes and easingThis feature would greatly benefit designers creating:Product launch videos Social m

I often have a need to annotate designs from different perspectives, like..Accessibility Analytics tracking Localization...and the stakeholders have a need to easily find and check the annotations related to their responsibilities.Currently in Figma I can create color-coded categories for annotations and use them to tag layouts, which is great. I can even filter them to some extent.What makes the filtering almost unusable for me is that only ‘All categories’ or a single category can be chosen. ‘All categories’ is too much: layouts will get flooded with annotations. Unfortunately just selecting one (like ‘Tracking’ in the image below) Figma still shows all the rest as these reduced mode red things (see lower image). What I’m getting at is that there should be a way to easily toggle any combination of categories visible/hidden. It’s weird that in the Filter by -list you can’t choose to display say “Accessibility” and “Interaction” and the rest would be hidden. Showing all those reduced m

Dear Figma TeamThanks for all the efforts and products you are producing for the wolrd it is really inspiring us all. Since Figma products have a lot of features and it is hard for anyone to know about all of them, I suggest to build an AI tool where I ask it on how to use a feature and it will produce a video with voice on how to use this feature and it can suggest more videos on youtube if I need more explanation or deep dive.

Is it possible to view a user’s drafts as an Enterprise admin or a Team admin?As an admin I really should be able to view all files that have been created, but it seems that user’s drafts are still private even after the update.

In their current state, comments try to accommodate multiple use cases into a single system: general note-taking, questions to ask stakeholders, functionality/purpose annotations, feedback, prototype tour points, etc. When all these use cases pile up in a single page, it could easily start to reach over 100 individual comments and makes it difficult to distinguish between them. I’m proposing expanding the functionality of the comments feature to allow for the most common use cases to be different comment types. Invision does a great job of this by changing the color of the pin when a certain comment type is selected. This allows users to quickly identify the most relevant comments to them and ignore the rest. (From Invision) What would make it even better is if the visibility of types of comments could be filterable from the right toolbar. When the comment tool is active, editors could filter down which types of comments they would like to see. They could also determine if a comment t

The new sidebar takes up valuable horizontal space, only to display a few links that can be moved elsewhere. How can we hide this? Or collapse it into the Figma button, instead of using 100 pixels just for 6 links, 4 of them who already existed somewhere else before anyway?  

Problem: There is currently no Plugin API to enumerate all connected/enabled libraries of a file, nor to list the styles (paint, text, effect) published by a connected library. The only library discovery surface is teamLibrary.getAvailableLibraryVariableCollectionsAsync(), which returns variable collections but nothing about styles.Current workarounds and why they fail: Scanning the document for remote style IDs — You can walk every node across all pages, collect fillStyleId, strokeStyleId, textStyleId, effectStyleId, check style.remote, and group by the file key embedded in the style ID (S:<fileKey>,…). This is extremely slow on large files (thousands of nodes across many pages), incomplete (only finds styles actually in use, not the full library), and fragile (relies on internal ID format for grouping). getAvailableLibraryVariableCollectionsAsync() — Returns LibraryVariableCollection[] with libraryName, which lets you discover library names and their variable collections. But

Similar functionality to AE, and also Figma’s native Sweep functionality with Ellipses, the ability to trim any path’s Start and/or End points would allow for more optimized design and prototyping. Some examples: Elegant design/prototyping of custom bar and line charts as well as interactive sliders (RN my adjustable horizontal charts and sliders components are leveraging AutoLayout right padding to adjust a stroke set to Fill) More advanced/custom loader animations Easily make drawn path animations

Hi Figma team and community,This is related to a similar issue reported here:MCP rate limit not acknowledging subscription I'd like to suggest an improvement to the error messaging around API and MCP access for Dev seat users.Current situation:When a Dev seat user tries to access a Figma project via the API or MCP without having edit permission granted at the project level, they receive this error:> "You've reached the Figma MCP tool call limit for your View seat on the Professional plan. Upgrade your seat or plan for more tool calls."This is misleading in two ways:1. The user already has a Dev seat — not a View seat.2. Upgrading the plan is not the fix. The actual issue is that edit permission hasn't been granted for that specific project. There is also a conceptual confusion worth addressing: Dev seat users do not have edit access to projects by design, which makes it counterintuitive that they need to be granted edit permission by the project owner in order for API/MCP access to

Prototyping a circle progress ring based on variable set would allow for significantly simpler and native prototyping and managment. RN I have a progress ring component with 25+ variants progressing based on a Day variable that then does a Change To to transition to the right one, but this is cumbersome to maintain as each variant requires all the conditional logic to possibly switch to any other given variant. If I could apply a variable to the Sweep then I could then progress the Sweep variable in relation to the Day variable on just 1 Ellipse, and manage only 1 set of conditionals applied to it.

As teams and design systems scale, finding the right Figma file becomes a major bottleneck. Many of us manage hundreds of cross-functional projects, and the current dashboard limits our ability to organize and locate our work efficiently.To make it easy to see what needs to change, here is a breakdown of the three major file management limitations we face daily, our frustrating workarounds, and the proposed solutions: Feature Request The Figma Limitation The Frustrating Workaround The Proposed Solution 1. Native, Searchable Tags No way to categorize or add custom metadata to Figma files. Cramming categories, client names, and Jira codes into the title, cluttering the dashboard. Introduce a native tagging system to filter files by status, team, or tracking codes. 2. Quoted Search Terms Search splits words by hyphens (e.g., PROJECT-123 becomes PROJECT and 123). Quotes are ignored. Sifting through dozens of irrelevant search results that share common prefixes or nu

When applying a text string variable to a text layer, it’s not possible to search for a text string by content, only by its name. This is rather inconvenient for the localization plugin we’re using, which gives each string variable an inscrutable number for a name. Here I am searching for “smith” in this panel and getting no results, even though we have variables that contain the text “smith.”  The good news is that if I open the variables panel, the search field there is able to search for string content in the various modes. It would just be great if the little “apply variable” panel could as well!  

The animation capabilities are absolutely fantastic, especially being able to export as an animated SVG. It would be ideal if we could export as a MOV file because videos with transparent backgrounds mean we can create lower thirds and multiple different video assets. It would prevent us having to use After Effects or any other video tool 

Favourite fonts will be shown on top of the list, while the rest of it will be shown below the favourite list. We should also be able to remove and add while viewing the fonts on the font list.

Get paid templates of figma and framer for free with this method ‼️ You could also with this clone any website design and import it into figma — there is the method : 1) Go to the framer marketplace or figma marketplace and search the template that you want and then click on the preview link and get redirect in a new browser tab who will open the preview of the website; 2) Copy that preview link and go to this website www.uploop.space and paste the preview link on that website. Then launch the process and click on the bouton "Export to figma"; 3) When the process is over, you'll get an portable svg file who is the website pixel perfect that you want to clone with exact fonts, sections and all the entire website ready to be redesigned as your wishes. Bonus: If you want to retake that pixel perfect clone and import it to framer again, you'll just need to use de figma plugin on framer to import it. Note: It's works well on any framer/figma websites templates (paids or none) . You could ne

Now that we have variables support for text styles, it’s taking a while to update all the properties to match text variables. It’d be really, really helpful to be able to apply variables to multiple text styles at once, by selecting all font styles that we want to apply a variable to and editing the property, since most of these are shared between different styles. With that feature, text migration to variables would be super easy and seamless.

It is a reasonable request.

It would be great to have the option to share plugins created with the agent across the organization in order to standardize workflows and methodologies.

Hi, We’re trying to export some assets from Figma (either JPEG or PNG) is fine, but running into some issues with resolution. If we export at 1x, the image is low quality… however, if we export at 2x it doubles the dimensions of the image itself (for most ad platforms this is fine, but this time we need it in the exact dimensions) I’ve tried exporting at 2x and scaling down using other online tools, but the assets then become low quality again. Anyone else had this issue / managed to solve it?

ProblemWhen a vertically scrollable frame is nested inside another vertically scrollable frame, scrolling works inside the child until it reaches its top or bottom edge — at which point the scroll locks in place. The remaining scroll input is never passed to the parent frame, so the user has to physically move their cursor outside the child frame to continue scrolling the page.Current behaviorScroll input is captured entirely by whichever scroll container the cursor is over. When that container hits its limit, the input stops there and does not propagate.Expected behaviorMatch how browsers handle nested scroll containers by default: once a child scroll region reaches its edge, the leftover scroll should "chain" up to the parent, letting the user keep scrolling the page in one continuous gesture without repositioning the cursor.Proposed solutionAdd a scroll-chaining option to the Overflow settings on the Prototype tab — equivalent to CSS overscroll-behavior. Ideally with two modes:Chain

💡 [IMPORTANT] Feedback: Support for Relative Units (%, em, rem) for VariableWhile we are on the topic of variables, we desperately need support for relative units in number/dimension variables.• The Suggestion: Please allow us to input values using percentages (%), em, rem, or other responsive CSS units not just absolute pixels (px).• The Impact: Modern web design relies heavily on fluid typography and relative spacing. Having to calculate and hardcode everything in pixels limits the true power of Figma variables for front-end handoff.Please look into these issues, especially the spacing regression in the latest UI.Thank you!
