Hug until container is too small

I would like an option to hug content until the container it is in is too small. For instance, I am making a tab bar where the tabs are set to fill so they adjust with screen sizes. The title on each has an info icon to the right. The text has to be set to hug for the icon to stay right next to the text. However, that means if the text is long, when the tabs shrink the text extends out rather than wrapping. I would like the option to set the hugged text to wrap when it extends past the parent container without having to manually change it a each breakpoint.

Set dynamic same width for items in Autolayout Wrap

I would very much like a feature to maintain the same width of items in an Autolayout with wrap - even when they are dynamic using “Filled” Ex. i have 3 items in autolayout with wrap on. Width is set to Filled Max width for items are 200 Min width for items are 100 My autolayout width is 300 = all items are on the same row I change autolayout width to 200 = items in 1st row are now 100px wide, Item 3 is pushed to a new row, but stays 100px wide

Ready for Dev automatic updates

Hello, It would be great if I can add scrum team members to files or pages so that when something is marked “ready for dev” they will get updates. likewise, when something changes from “ready for dev” to “design has changed since marked ready for dev” and back again… This way, the team can be notified of changes while they are working on things… since most of our dev teams do not “live” in Figma, but rather Jira tickets or other tools to do their day to day.

When deleting an element, auto select the upper nesting level

When you delete an element in a nested structure, you lose all selection. This means if you want to continue working around that level, you have go dive again to that level (double-click, double click, double, click, double click…) Deleting an element should auto select the immediate upper level to stay where we’re currently working Or auto select the previous element in that hierarchy maybe, or the next one. But staying around there, not going back to root level.

Feature Request: Introducing Flow Checkpoints for Enhanced User Story Navigation

Hi Figma Team, I wanted to share an idea that could enhance the user flow experience in Figma prototypes, particularly for longer user stories with multiple significant actions. Currently, the Flow Starting Point feature allows us to set a starting position in a flow, which is helpful. However, I wonder if we could go further by adding Flow Checkpoints. Here’s how this could be beneficial: Proposed Flow Checkpoints Segment-Based Notes: Checkpoints could allow us to attach notes or information relevant to specific segments of a flow. For example, we could add context or background info not visually represented but helpful for anyone exploring the prototype, giving more depth to the user journey. Navigational Anchors: As users navigate through the prototype, these checkpoints could act as “milestones” that update when reaching certain screens. This would provide a clear indication of where a user is within a complex flow. Additionally, if users press a key (e.g., “R”), they could qui

Color code or tag comments

We often leave comments with different purposes or to different roles in the company (stakeholder, copy, dev, UX/UI, etc.) It would make it much easier to identify the comments relevant for you if we had the option of color coding or tagging them (and filtering your comments view to only show those relevant to your work). This would especially make large projects easier.

Figma should tell User when features fail or are not compatible

I find it ridiculous that when I had a design incorporating ‘plus darker’ image editing, Figma didn’t notify me in realtime that it wouldn’t appear when i attempted to export as a PDF. Instead I had to waste 30m to figure out if if was a memory issue, Figma image quality issue, PDF issue, etc. Silly. Tell Users beforehand that they won’t be getting the export they expect and why (and, hell, maybe even give a tip about how to achieve the goal the user is trying to do. For example in this case, suggest exporting as a 4x PNG and importing that image & then exporting as a PDF.)

Need short URLs that are user friendly

When sharing prototype links with internal team members or clients, we find that the URLS are often long and not user friendly. Have you guys considered making short urls or user-friendly sharing links?

Add (more) tools for illustrating

It would be really great if can add tools like Eraser, Pencil tool supports to illustrating(current one does not support when customizing existing elements). Basically tools from Illustrator. Figma is way more easy than using Adobe illustrator, but with the current tools its limited.

Keep frames align to top in Presentation mode

Hello there, I’ve been trying the prototype features. When switching from one frame to another with smaller height, it aligns the smaller one to the center of the screen. There should be a way to set the prototype positioning. I would like to align all my frames to the absolute top.

Repeater 🔥 (Auto-Layout evolution)

Hey guys, Let’s be real. The main spectrum of work with UI, whether it’s an app, or a website, is displaying data or content (such as feed, lists, posts, comments, etc). We can do a component of a post card, for example. Then duplicate instances, and wrap that in an auto layout. It would be cool to have a repeater that shows right up after you’ve activated the auto-layout, where you can specify how many times to repeat the instance (component) and bind data to it. At the same time, it would be cool to have a centralized data location somewhere (i.e. when you click on the data, open a shared data set so that the same data can be accessed from different repeaters). (Screenshot is just to deliver the idea, it’s far from the perfect UI, I didn’t spent much time of thinking it through since Figma has a great product team on board to elaborate it and deliver in an amazing simplified way) It feels like it’s a very natural evolution of Auto-Layout feature. So, what do you guys think? (P.S. So

Locking/turning off certain controls in properties panel/controlling bubble properties

It would be extremely helpful if we could lock and/or turn off certain controls in the properties panel when needed. Also, I would love to have more control over which bubble properties I want to surface - rather than all the properties associated with a component bubbling up together, it would be so helpful to be able to select the exact individual list items you want to bubble up. We have a very complex dynamic template system that I’m building with a lot of nested components and variant properties, and while I need a lot of flexibility to allow for incremental changes, I want to limit what shows up in the properties panel as much as possible at each level so I can limit the decisions the end user has to make and accurately illustrate the possibilities and limitations that will be in our end product.

New UI Controls and Layout

I am not loving the new UI in general, but after using it for a while there are two specific details that bug me enough to write this rant. The new UI re-organized some of the controls which makes it makes it harder to do simple things. Please consider the following suggestions: Move “Corner Radius” into the Layout section. I have no idea why corder radius is grouped with opacity in appearance when it needs to be next to the “Clip content” and dimensions options. When I adjust a corner radios, i am 100% of the time going to then immediately click “Clip layout” so I can see that change. In fact, I think If a corner radius is added to a frame, then clip content checkbox should be automatically checked so I don’t have to do it to see it. Move “Alignment” options to the “Layout” section. Y’all moved the alignment options and the spacing so far away that it is really annoying now anytime I am tiding up my files. After I go to Alignment to tidy up selected frames (located in the Position sec

Figma needs baseline shift functionality

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 sized ® or ™ in a line of text is to creat

Figma Slides - Allow anonymoous voting and include a QR code

Currently polls require being logged into a Figma account. There’s no way to present with Figma Slides to a large audience and use the polls feature with anonymous people such as giving a talk for a group mentorship session on ADPList. I’d like to see an option to allow anonymous voting and an option to show a QR code for people to quickly vote on their phones while viewing a presentation you are giving.

I wish there was a way to see the "age" of a specific frame

it’s different from just using history. we are working on a file that was ongoing for years, some of the frames are old, some are new. we want to see what is the age of each screen to understand the timeline of our work. we could scroll back in time and see, but then we would had to jump between times, trying to discover and guess when a screen was created, rather then the possibility of just clicking on it and see the date of the creation

Dark components on dark mode are low contrast

Maybe this is addressed in the UI3, but one thing that causes me a bit of difficulty for some time is how hard to view some dark components are in the dark mode assets panel. Especially icons with dark color as a default.

UI3 right sidebar in Design mode harder to navigate with component section at top

UI3 erased my muscle memory on where to go to adjust a layer’s position and layout properties. They now appear at different positions depending on what type of element I’ve selected. E.g. a component with a lot of properties will cause the position and layout sections to be completely scrolled off the bottom of the panel. This adds up to cumulative slow downs and increased cognitive load while adjusting these parameters across many layers quickly. And there is no good way to restore this muscle memory because the panels are always in a different position. Would love to see these moved back to the top or a way to reorder the panels via settings or something… Thanks!
