I am frustrated that this application cannot be used offline! I made a request three years ago, and they mentioned plans to create an offline version. I really dislike web-based apps that always require an internet connection and a login.As a Photoshop user for over 10 years, I handle all my UI, icon, and design work with Photoshop. I don’t see the value in Figma, yet I’ve missed out on a lot of work because many of my new colleagues only use it. They often send me ".fig" files that I cannot open without installing Figma, creating an account, and being online. Figma is a real piece of garbage for me (absolutely no offence)!While I recognise that Figma has some useful basic tools for UI design, I can’t understand why they haven’t developed a standalone offline version.

It would be great if Figma also had Sentence case as Letter Case style! This is extremely useful especially for people outside the US. It would be as simple as just capitalizing the first letter of each period.

Why isn't there a 'Sentence case' option in Figma's text transform settings? It would be very useful for improving typography workflows — especially for automatically capitalizing the first letter of each sentence.

Hello there! I am new to coding, figma make, and github. I have a prototype designed in Figma Make. I am wondering if anyone can help me save my work to github? Starting from having a published prototype to commit work to GitHub. Here’s what I’ve done so far. 1. Created a New GitHub repository for my prototype I created in Figma Make2. Published my Figma Make prototype​​​​​​3. Downloaded the code to a folder on my local computerI appreciate any help! This is all very exciting stuff. 

I find managing template colors really difficult in Slides. I can’t easily organize, re-order, or rename them. I’ve found some ways to hack it but it feels really convoluted trying to provide color options in the templates I’m making. I think Slides is doing a really great job on most fronts and I love the product, but I find myself just using colors from other libraries because managing them within Slides is so confusing.

Hi! I’ve created a dialog component in one Figma Make file and I want to use it in another file.What’s the best way to import or copy it over? Should I copy-paste it manually or is there a better way to reuse components across files in Figma Make?

There is a great feature in Notion called “close redirecting browser tabs” This is a setting that, when toggled on, automatically closes a browser tab when a page open in the desktop app. It would be great if Figma had this feature as well. When I click on Figma links, I end up with lots of browser tabs like this, because the pages open in the Figma desktop app. I would love if these tabs auto-closed.

Include a search bar in the Library analytics panel to rapidly select a component without having to scroll through the list of components.

There is no “change property” interaction. This is very basic. I see several conversations around this, but no direct feature request for this basic feature. Currently, you can ONLY change variant properties. But you should be able to change boolean property, text property, or instance swap.Most common use cases:Show/hide a layer on hover such as a tooltip or an interaction widget (currently requires workarounds with nested components or additional variants)  Change text on hover such as embedded help text Change an embedded instance on click for navigating between tabsA bonus interaction would be “change embedded variants”. You can currently only change the variant of the component itself, but it would be super useful to be able to target an embedded component and change its variant.

Absolutely love the ability to move items from one page to another. It would be a massive improvement if the items that are moved didn’t stack on top of one another, sometimes creating a mess of a pile. Certainly don’t expect it to be organized, but not stacking would be a massive improvement.Thank you for all the work!

We currently can only Rename, Delete or Create a collection. Can we have an option to Duplicate an existing collection? This would allow users to quickly create copy of an existing collection of variable, then select a new design and switch from one collection to another without having to type everything. Example use case: Brand 1 (Collection) Colors (Group) Light (Mode) Dark (Mode) Fonts (Group) Light (Mode) Dark (Mode) After duplicating: Brand 2 (Collection) Colors (Group) Light (Mode) Dark (Mode) Fonts (Group) Light (Mode) Dark (Mode)

The presentation view needs to support zoom. Currently it’s impossible to view large frames in presentation view as we’re limited to 3 options: 100% display at full size Fit scale down to fit Scale down or up to fill #1 displays the content too big, and #2 and #3 display the content too small.

In Adobe Photoshop, you can use the transform tool to distort and change the angle of an image. For example, if you need to change the angle of an image within an iPhone device mockup. I wish I was able to do this within Figma the same way I use it in Photoshop. 

Right now there is no simple way to have a conversation with an LLM about a set of designs (Page/File/selected amount of artboards) in Figma. Copying/pasting screenshots is not feasible because a screenshot big enough to capture the contents of a page in figma would be way too large to paste into an LLM. Use cases: As a designer, I’m being onboarded onto a complex project and want to get up to speed as quickly as possible. I can chat with an LLM about the PRD, but not about a Figma file. It would be great if an LLM could natively scan page page or entire file and allow me to ask questions about the file without me scanning every single artboard manually to start.  I want to get feedback on a user flow/design/set of designs. This would be a big unlock because I think that AI is good at exploring the solution space for a problem when properly described/articulated but it’s a very manual time-consuming process because there is no visual element to it. 

Hello Figma! I can not change the direction of the Autolayout on the instances of a component. I can not understand why such a great feature is disabled on the instances and why not allow us to overwrite it? There are so many incidents that I would have wished to be able to change the direction of the Autolayout in the instances of the component but right now I have to create multiple variants. 😦

Especially with the recent Variables update. It’s more important than ever to have the ability to migrate all the old Styles with new Variables. However, the current behavior is that it only matches whatever “name” is the same. This makes the whole swapping library a very underpowered feature. Ideally, it should simply allow us to pick Variables or Styles to swap with the old library. This has been requested back in 2021.

It should be possible to swap library components manually. In this screenshot, I’m swapping a icon library for another, but the icons are not named the same, so I can’t finish the job. Why can’t I simply select the component I want to replace it with? Even worse, there’s no way to select the components from the old library to swap them them manually one by one. Component instances from my old library are scattered in pages and there’s no efficient way to select instances from a certain library (apart from the swap library modal). I’ve looked at so many plugins and none of them can get it done. It’s such a pain and could be resolved easily. btw - the same applies to “Missing Library.” Because I can’t swap them to an arbitrary library, I’m left with ghost components that I can’t even locate.

I want to make a prototype where something changes when user scrolls content. I want to keyboard collapse when user starts scrolling content, but it’s impossible to do with drag action. Or it feels unnatural Or am I missing a way to do it with existing tools?

I use Grammarly app across a lot of platforms, but it does not work on Figma unfortunately. It would be amazing to be able to run Grammarly on Figma.

The gif below should be self-explanatory about the issue

Currently, the section title is outside the section box only on the highest level. When a section is nested, the title jumps inside the section box and overlaps content unless you expand the section box. The option to choose if the section title is inside or outside the section box would be really useful. 

Currently there is a huge limitation in prototyping possibilities because any dropdown menus appear underneath the following element in the autolayout flow. I can’t remove autolayout because it would break designs across all useage of design system components and we can’t properly demo prototypes. Anchored by the lack of a customizable z-index property.

Is there a way to export annotations. Does anyone have a suggestion of how to do that or at least share the annotations with someone who does have not a Figma account? Thanks!

Currently, Figma Code Connect allows mapping design tokens, styles, and components to code, but it does not support connecting variables directly to local image assets. Many projects maintain a set of local assets (e.g., illustrations, icons) in the codebase, often structured as an object for easy access: example asset.ts:import BillsRecharges from "./assets/illustrations/Bills&Recharges.svg";import UnionPay from "./assets/illustrations/UnionPay.svg";export const illustrationIcons = {  BillsRecharges,  UnionPay,} as const;Developers then use these assets dynamically in code, e.g., illustrationIcons.BillsRecharges.Currently, Code Connect

When we share links to prototypes in Figma Design, we can customize the sharing to be visible to people outside of our company (great for usability testing). Permissions for slide presentations have to be set at the slide file level, which is annoying when you have the presentation open and you want to just adjust the sharing permissions from right inside the dialog.
