User StoryAs a FigJam user, I often use FigJam to sketch out rough ideas (for example, a “fat-marker” diagram). When doing this, I also often want to add notes or write down ideas for specific areas on the canvas, which may contain multiple different elements.To do this today, I have a few options:I can “highlight” the area / elements I want to note with a bordered rectangle or another element, and then attach a note to that rectangle with an arrow, but this obscures the area I’m highlighting. I can draw with the pen tool and do the same thing as the above, but this also obscures the area I’m highlighting. I can copy the elements in the area I want to highlight, move them to the side, then add notes there, but this isn’t always super easy to do when elements are grouped or locked. I can screen shot the area I want to highlight, add the screenshot to the canvas, then add notes to that screenshot, but if I chan

I’ve just applied variables to all our project’s text styles. It all works as expected. However, in inspect mode, font weight it still displayed as normal css value and not with css-variable. See screenshots. Is this a bug or me messing up things?

Hi, my organization is creating a pretty robust template for our entire company. We have opted to make figma buzz templates component sets, as these are templates with many variants interconnected. However,  we’ve noticed that as you make component sets in Figma Buzz, the names of each frame disappear and become the name of the main component. I think the change layout update is great, but being able to pre-name this existing variables with naming conventions would be great for non-designers using the templates to better navigate the options.  

Is there any way to access the device switcher in Make when “playing” the prototype (not in editor mode)?

While working with masked images, adjusting the image fill currently requires multiple clicks — we need to open the right-side panel, go into Fill → Image → and then select from Fill, Fit, Crop, or Tile.It would be much more efficient if these four options (Fill, Fit, Crop, Tile) appeared directly below the Fill option once an image is detected — similar to how Adobe InDesign offers direct toggles for image fitting.This small UX improvement would significantly speed up workflows, especially for designers who frequently adjust images within frames or masks.Thank you for considering this enhancement!

It would be great, if one could search for Figma variables within the library analytics. Benefit: Evaluating how often a variable is being used:  Can a variable be deleted?  How big is a breaking change?    It would also be great, if the analytics view would be fullscreen. Especially if you have long token names. (Adjustable column width would be a solution too)   

This feature enables users to directly extract and copy text from images (JPEG, PNG, etc.) within Figma. It utilizes Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to recognize and convert text within an image into editable text layers. This functionality enhances productivity by allowing designers to quickly integrate text data from visual assets without manual transcription. Use Cases: Efficient Workflow: Designers can seamlessly transfer text from mood boards, screenshots, and scanned documents into their designs. Accessibility Improvement: Extracting text from images and converting it into editable formats can help improve the accessibility of documents by allowing for easy adjustments to text size, color, and font, making it more readable. Error Reduction: Reduces transcription errors and saves time by automating the text digitization process. Implemen

Sería de gran utilidad, que se integrara un buscador por imagen para encontrar rápidamente diseños y propuestas dentro de un equipo grande de trabajo sobre suite de productos.

Hi there.I create a new thread because this one is closed: Like many, I do my resumé with Figma. And I’ve seen that the text exported PDFs have undesirable spaces inside the words.Example:Copy/paste this text and you get:“with 2 0 + years of e xperience”, which is wrong!! Of course, the MKitFPDF plug-in solves some problems but brings some others, without to say it’s not free.Did someone got a real fix for this?

Figma should add Glow Effect in the Effects section. It will help to add personality to the design. I usually do drop shadow to create a glow effect and it is really tedious because you have to do a lot of drop shadow just to achieve that glow effects for text and vectors. 

It would be very helpful to have a half-circle shape (semi-circle) available directly in FigJam. Why this matters:In workshops, facilitators often use visual metaphors and structured diagrams to guide discussion. Half-circles are commonly used for:Representing progress or partial completion  Visualizing relationships or opposing forces  Creating layered frameworks Benefits:Efficiency: Faster setup for visual frameworks and templates. Consistency: Ensures uniform shapes across different boards and teams. Accessibility: Makes FigJam more approachable for facilitators who are not design experts.In short:A  half-circle shape would make FigJam more powerful for workshop design, visual facilitation, and conceptual thinking.

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!

I was surprised to notice today that the long awaited Connected Projects is now available in Figma but also very disappointed to see the absurd limitations on how many connected projects each plan can have. I can somewhat understand the limitation of being able to connect with one company at a time for technical/admin reasons in the first release, but WHY do we need the limitations of how many connected projects we can have if all parties are already paying for their licenses? The max 3/6 in Professional and Organization is ridiculous, as it also counts the projects that are shared our way. Please remove these artificial limitations, or at least make them a lot bigger like 20 / 40 / 80 so they make some sense in the real world.

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.

Hey, Is there any idea if getting the team id of a user just from a token will be implemented any time soon? Or if someone knows a different way to obtain that info?

Feature Request: Git-like Version Control for Figma BranchesCurrently, Figma allows us to create a branch from each file, but this limitation makes it difficult to manage complex design workflows — especially for teams working on large design systems.Git-like branching would make version control in Figma far more powerful and flexible. With this approach, designers could create multiple branches from existing ones — functioning much like environments (e.g., test, staging, production) in development.Attempt at elucidating through a flow diagramAs a design system maintainer, this would be a huge benefit. For example: Components that need additional review or testing could be safely designed in separate subbranches.

Hi everyone,I often run into an issue when creating components: I want certain properties to be mutually exclusive.For example, inside a component (most of the time it’s a product card), I have Block A, Block B, and Block C, each controlled by a boolean toggle. If I want to switch from A to B, I have to manually turn B on and A off. This quickly becomes tedious, especially with multiple options.While variants are an alternative, they become impractical when dealing with many of this mutually exclusive choices, and they add too much complexity and file size.Conditional logic could also work for this but it is such a pain to do for this simple and recurent use case that I consider it as not a viable option for a day-to-day workflow. Feature Idea:It would be great to group boolean properties so only one can be active at a time—like a set of radio buttons instead of multiple independent toggles.Would this help your wo

Hi to all. I love to use Figma to make prototype but i think that it’s time to improve dev mode and show html+css code about components. Especially if the compponents were made using autolayout. I know that there’s some plugin but i think Figma have to improve this side. What do you think about it?

HeyIt would be great if we have repeat functionality in design mode too not just in draw mode.Thanks

HeyI’m currently using FigJam connectors by copying and pasting them, but it would be much better to have a native version available in Design mode. Also, connectors can’t currently be turned into components or placed inside components, so it would be great if that could be considered as well.

Hey, It would be great if we could manage the z-index of some elements. Example: I 've got an element which has a built-in tool tip displayed on hover (or click, whatever) if it’s in auto-layout and the previous element is just above, this tool tip will appear behind this precedent element. The only way to make it appear on top is to place it manually on the actual layout which takes horrendous amount of time. I suggest there would be an option “take the highest z-index” or such when defining “display overlay” in prototyping mode.

I would love to see when someone has made a change to a file as well. It would help me be able to identify if people make optimal use of their licence, as well as use the log if my org has suspicions someone isn’t working. Alternatively this might be solved by being able to download the textual version history of a file, but inside the activity log would make more sense in my eyes.

It would be nice if I could quickly open pages in my design file in a new tab. Often pages contain designs that would be useful to view side by side with the current page you are working on. It would be nice if I could quickly open them in a new tab / new window instead of having to go back to files, open the file, wait for it to load and then navigate to the page.

Currently, using Figma component boolean properties, it only shows when true and hides when false. What if you could switch those around? For example, when something is true, it could show some elements, and hide others. For example, a product thumbnail- when “on sale” is true, show sale icon, show strikethrough price, but also hide original price and replace it with a bolded/colorful/what have you of price. Or if ‘Out of Stock’ is true, show all the ‘out of stock’ stuff material, but also hide the ‘add to cart’ button. Stuff like that. Currently you have to create new variants just to show + hide things at the same time, or add redundant switches like ‘In Stock’ and ‘Out of Stock’ and just make sure they never have the same state.
