Gap input box needs a quick access to variables [not to be under a drop donw]

I’m just curious why this in the [padding] box 👇 is not here in the [gap] box too 👇why I have to open the drop down for the variables when I can get it within a single click?

Create Folders/Categories/Tags for files

Organization would be immensely helpful if we could create folders for our drafts. I want to be able to organize my drafts into different categories (such as UI kits, Ideas, Wireframe kits, iOS, Android, etc…) so I can find files easily. Right now, the drafts page is a huge jumbled mess and I can’t create Team pages for everything. Maybe something as simple as being able to add ‘tags’ to each file, similar to Zeplin.

Option to minimise component properties

Hi FigmaIt would be great to be able to show/hide component properties when using an instance.Some of my components are complex and having to scroll through seemingly endless nested components, variant settings and other props in order to access the design functions that live below them can get irksome quickly.Thanks

Setting the mode from prototype url parameter

I’m using variables and modes to create multilingual prototypes, using a mode for each language (e.g., English, Hindi, and Korean). When designing, I can switch the language for the whole page easily which is great to create a multilingual prototypes. However, for testing I’d like to be able to provide separate links for participants to test the prototype in their own languages. This could be achieved if there was a way to set the mode for the page as part of the prototype url parameters. That is, having a link with the mode set to Hindi that I can share with Hindi speakers, and another link always set to Korean to be shared with Korean speakers. Currently, I had to duplicate the prototype page to create language-specific versions (setting each copy to a different mode). When there are changes I’ve been regenerating the copies which results in the previous links to the prototypes no longer being valid.

Tab colours for Files

Please consider adding the ability to assign custom tab colors to individual files or projects. This small visual aid would make it significantly easier to distinguish between open tabs at a glance, especially when juggling multiple design files simultaneously.This feature would offer several key benefits. It would improve workflow organization by allowing users to visually group and separate project files. Navigating between files would become faster and more intuitive, reducing the mental load when switching contexts. Additionally, color coded tabs would help minimize the risk of accidentally editing the wrong file, a common issue when working across multiple projects. Overall, it would enhance focus and efficiency, especially for users who regularly multitask within Figma.Color coded tabs are a familiar and effective UI pattern in many tools, and I believe this addition would be a valuable quality-of-life improvement for many users.

Problem with SVG Import: Text Converted to Individual Vector Letters Instead of Editable Text Frames

When I export SVGs from Motiff and import them into Figma, all the text gets broken down into individual vector shapes for each letter. This makes it impossible to edit the text as a whole in Figma, and increases the number of unnecessary layers drastically.I would like to request support for preserving text elements during SVG import — either as editable text layers or by detecting grouped text for easier editing. This feature would significantly improve workflows for users importing design assets from other tools like Motiff.

Allow variables to be partially based off other variables

Enhancing variables to have extra logic in place so that variables can be partially based off other variables e.g. Number new_variable = “{other_number_variable} + 4” String new_variable = “{other_text_variable} New Text” Colour new_variable = “{other_color_variable}, opacity 4” Boolean new_variable = “not {other_boolean_variable}”

Data Visualization

Figma Team, Data Scientists like me are praying for you guys to develop a data visualization node! you’re missing so much by not providing so. Power BI, Tableau and the other softwares are so square in design and usability terms. I’ve been copy pasting my charts into Figma for the past month and you guys are definitely a level up if we talk about presentation.

API call to branch

In our current workflow, new changes to an existing file and/or library start with a branch. The branch allows for a staging environment, but unfortunately we are not able to run API calls to a branch to test before moving to a “production” state (merged to main and published libraries). Can we please make this possible?

'background-color' for text (or part of the text)

One of the properties, very basic in CSS, that I miss most often in Figma is “background-color” for text. Would be awesome if you’d consider adding this feature on your roadmap, especially that you aim to become a competition for webflow.

Make invalid assets more visible when sharing a library

Hello, I really wish UI3 made the invalid assets more visible when publishing the library. I keep having issues with components because I do not see that there’s an invalid asset.

PDF import to Figma Make for content reference

Having used App Generation with Claude AI, I know how powerful it is to add PDFs as references to inform the content of the generated output.So why is it not possible to do the same in Figma Make, given that it uses the same LLM? Ideally, I would like to be able to create a prompt such as: 'Analyse the attached PDFs (CV and portfolio) and create a portfolio homepage based on their content.'While the current image and Figma screen references are great for styling, being able to analyse and synthesise PDF content to generate an app would be awesome!

Feature Request: Bulk Component Variant Editing in Design Panel

Hey @Figma,I've got a feature idea that I think could really streamline our workflow!Currently, when I select a frame, I can easily see and modify all the colors used within it from the Design panel. This is incredibly useful for making quick, global changes.My suggestion is to implement a similar feature for components. It would be amazing if, upon selecting a frame, the Design panel could display all the unique components used within that frame.Imagine being able to: * See a list of every component instance in the selected frame. * If a component is used multiple times, identify all its instances at once. * Quickly change the variant of all those instances directly from the Design panel, just like we can with colors.This would be a massive time-saver, especially when working with design systems where we often use the same component across many different parts of a frame. It would make bulk updates much more efficient.What do you think?

Better image rendering method

Hello!I was wondering if I could request a more efficient rendering method for images in the canvas. I have noticed that when my file contains a large amount of any or a lesser number of high resolution images that performance of the file/canvas degrades significantly, sometimes debilitatingly so. I suspect that this is because the rendering engine is doing a couple things:Treating every instance of an image to be unique in terms of memory utilization (the more I add of a single image = more performance decrease)  Rendering every image at 100% resolution despite the canvas zoom level or image sizeSo I’m wondering if there are any plans for increasing efficiency of images/rasterized content for the canvas, this is pretty limiting right now in terms of my workflow and things are reallllly slow even though I have around 5 images that I reuse in my files. I’d really love a better raster image rendering method :)

Play a sound when Figma Make is done with a task.

Figma Make is a little bit slow right now, and I end up having to wait quite a while after I send it a prompt for it to perform the action. It would be great if we could have a tone play or some sort of indicator that lets the user know that Figma make is done with a task. This should only happen if Figma Make is not actively being viewed.

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!

Add button and shortcut for fill container

Fill container should be a button. Right now there’s a button and keyboard shortcut for hug, but fill is just as if not more important, yet it has neither a shortcut nor a button. If hug is a button, it also doesn’t make any sense for unclicking it to do nothing. You could easily add functionality to switch between states (either hug/fill or hug/fill/fixed) by pressing the button. Instead, currently you can click it once to hug, and then click again to do nothing. Please add a fill button or make the hug button more functional!

How to assign these actions to a shortcut / mouse button?

 These actions don’t have their keyboard combinations, which prevents me from assigning them from my Mouse keys. It’s one of the most used behaviours for so many people. Is there any way for me to assign them to a shortcut / mouse key?

List of Fonts in selection (like selection colors)

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this When we select a particular template or frame on Figma on the right side it will show all the colours did we used on that frame or template that’s a really good feature, Including that can you people also try to show us what all fonts that we used in that template or frame I felt that could be really great move by Figma if you people show the list of fonts that we used in that frame this going to be a great initiative by FIGMA. I’m really apologetic If that feature already existed in Figma I didn’t know where it was? I explored but I couldn’t find that feature. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this? etc. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

Rejection reasons for Admins

I just want to reinforce what Luis posted last year, since I agree 100% with him. Original thread:  It would be incredibly helpful if there were a way to include a rejection reason when declining a Figma seat upgrade request.I frequently receive upgrade notifications from across the organization, and in most cases, the requestors are unaware that there's an internal approval process they need to follow, such as submitting a request through our IT department rather than requesting directly via Figma.Lately, this has become quite challenging to manage. When I reject these requests, I often receive frustrated follow-up emails from users who don’t understand why their upgrade was denied. Being able to provide a brief explanation at the time of rejection would save time, reduce confusion, and help streamline communication.Thanks for considering this!

API endpoint to GET a list of team ids

We need a way in the REST API to get a list of Team IDs. A previous post (Suggestion: API endpoint for :team_id) was moved to ‘share an idea’ and then marked as solved, so I’m reposting sans solution, in hopes that we can get some votes. With the new library analytics API, this feels more relevant than ever. I want my users to pick the team their library is in from a list, and then pick the library file from a list of files. Trying to get end users to figure out how to get the library file ID is needlessly complicated to start taking advantage of the new API, when I could set up a system to let them pick it from a list. Almost all of the endpoints require a Team ID… (or require a file ID, the list of which requires a project ID, which requires a Team ID… etc.) So adding a Team API would unlock improved usability for almost every other REST API endpoint. Let’s make it happen.

file .make

I really like Figma Make — it's a fascinating tool — but I find it quite surprising that it generates files I can't edit with regular Figma tools, nor export or import elsewhere. In the end, I can only look at them. I guess I still need to understand who it's really for and what its intended use case is.

Enabling “Snap to Pixel” instantly modifies the fractional coordinates of the frames in the file

Hi! Can somebody explain why with “snap to pixel grid” function on in Figma, the coordinates of files are still can be fractional? It fixes when you move them, but the question is still here why it is happening? And maybe there are some ways to prevent this or fix all frames coordinates in file altogether?

Allow file creators to set if they allow visitors to approve viewers or not

Currently anyone who has view rights can approve a view request; however, this may cause view rights issues in some cases. Suggest allowing file creators or admins to set whether they allow other viewers to grant view rights to other people.
