You can duplicate a file, and create a branch of the current file but when your in a branch you can only duplicate to a new file not a new branch. I always have this need I create a branch and don’t want extra files I just want to create extra branches off of the branch not the original file which has been significantly modified at this point.

Fractional units and hugs are definitely a welcome addition to Grids, but what’s still missing is the ability to assign both the number of columns/rows and colspan/rowspan to variables.We’ve defined our website breakpoints as modes so we can build components that automatically adapt to the viewport (for example, a 50/50 layout that stacks on mobile). Right now, the only way to achieve this is by storing fixed column-width values for each breakpoint and use them in combination with horizontal auto-layout. It works, but it defeats the whole purpose of Figma’s grid system.Assigning variables directly to the grid would allow every component using that grid to automatically adapt based on its current mode (breakpoint). This would make creating mockups across different breakpoints significantly faster and more efficient.

Currently the activity log requires a full email address to do search. It would be useful to search by first or last name or a part of the email address in some cases.

I am the Figma admin for my org and it would be really useful for us to have a single screen with a list of workspace and billing admins for all groups that we can use to manage. Currently, we need to go to each billing group or each workspace and then see the list. This creates a problem as one person can be present as an admin of multiple groups and the only way to know will be through excel export. Instead what I suggest is to have one screen with the admin list for all workspaces and billing groups that we can use to manage admins.

I am the Figma admin for my org and we have workspace and billing groups with a long list of admins. I’d like to see a way to scroll through that list easily. Currently it feels clunky.

Switching to the Enterprise license and would like the ability to assign a user to multiple workspaces. I see there is an option for folks to be invited to teams in different workspaces, but it would be more efficient if we can easily add and see how many workspaces folks are assigned to. In our organization we do a lot of cross collaboration, across the workspaces.

Every project I work on ends up with a huge number of layers. Without proper organization, it’s easy to get lost in them—like trying to find your way through a forest in the dark.The idea is to let users add tags—colors, icons, stars, or other markers—to layers, layouts, groups, and so on, making them stand out from the rest.For example, take a typical project with at least 100 layers. With this feature, I could mark anything that shouldn’t be touched in red and anything that needs changes in yellow. This would not only help keep things organized but also serve as a way to leave visual notes in larger projects that you work on for weeks at a time.If you like this idea, please support it with a like (or even a comment). I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!I’ve also created a concept design showing how I envision this feature being implemented.

Page dividers or spacing? 🤔 Cause this hack to use a page to fake it is in 99% of all Figma files I’m in. Does anyone else experience this?

It would be great to have more information available of which component changes got published in the version history. When a change needs to be reverted, it’s hard to know which version needs to be recovered when no or barely any information was providede with the publication of components.

When using Find & Replace with Arabic text, Figma always navigates to the first matching result starting from the left side of the canvas.For RTL languages such as Arabic, I’d expect the navigation order to follow the reading direction and start from the right side instead.This becomes especially noticeable in flows where screens are arranged from right to left, as Find & Replace jumps to a screen on the opposite end of the flow first.It would be helpful if result navigation respected the text or document direction for RTL languages.

Please add the “auto” value to the gap in the grid layout. The “auto” value can be applied to flex layouts but not to grid layouts 😁.

I posted this wish in comments back in 2022 and 2023. Am I the only one that wants a nice elegant curved arrow option for the connectors? 🙂 It makes diagrams look so much friendlier and aesthetically pleasing, instead of orthogonal curves, straight lines or angled straight lines. Thanks all! Ben

Love what you've built with Motion, using it almost every day.One thing that slows me down is the lack of native audio support. Having to render and add audio in a separate tool gets cumbersome, especially when working in bulk.Would love to see that integrated down the road! Also, any plans for HTML exports?I've looked at plugins but they feel a bit pricey and not very intuitive. Keep up the great work! Peace ✌

Hey everyone. I would like you to consider the text animation feature in Figma Motion. What I mean by text animation is animating text either word by word, or character by character, like the kind of animation we see in Saas promo videos. With other effects to the text like gradient color change that moves along the text reveal. That would be really cool :))

Hi Figma Team,I’d like to request the ability to temporarily hide the selection bounding box and handles of an active object without deselecting it.The Problem: As a UI design tool, our canvases are filled with rectangular containers and elements. When fine-tuning pixel-sensitive details—such as adjusting complex borders or multiple effects on rectangles—the selection bounding box directly covers the edges and working area, making it very difficult to accurately judge visual contrast. Industry Standard: Other industry-standard tools like Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop already solve this by letting users hide bounding boxes (e.g., Hide Bounding Box / Show Transform Controls). Having a similar toggle or shortcut in Figma would greatly improve high-precision UI work. The Solution: A quick shortcut or option to hide the transform handles/box on the canvas while the layer remains selected.Thank you for your incredible work on Figma!Best regards,Aleix

Figma’s current image crop is non-destructive, which is useful, but I’d love to have an option to permanently delete the pixels outside the crop.For example, add a “Delete Cropped Pixels” option when cropping an image.The workflow could be: Crop the image. Choose Delete Cropped Pixels. Everything outside the crop is permanently removed. The image can no longer be uncropped or moved to reveal the deleted areas. Normal non-destructive cropping should still remain available.This would be especially useful when working with large images because it could help reduce unnecessary image data and keep Figma files lighter.Photoshop already has a similar Delete Cropped Pixels option, and having the same choice in Figma would make image editing much more flexible.

I’d like Figma’s Slack integration to post a notification when someone creates a named version history entry in a file.the message including the title and description of version history entry.

I’d find it useful to set an aspect ratio for cells in Grid Auto Layout. For example, I could set the columns to fill the available width and give each cell a 1:1 aspect ratio. Its height would then automatically match its width, even when the grid is resized.

I get nervous having edit-access to a Figma file sometimes, especially as an engineer. I don’t want to accidentally make a change to something in the file. It would be great if there was a way to switch myself to a read-only mode (temporarily) to avoid accidentally breaking/changing something. For now, I’ve just been creating a new branch. If I change something on the branch, then I don’t need to worry.

Upon creating ideations with Figma make and publishing it as Figma Site, and sent to end users.The end users must have a facility to add comments to the figma site. 

Hi! First, thanks to the Figma team for all the hard work. Now, let’s talk about Figma Slides Templates. To edit the template styles, I have to select a slide first — which feels a bit unintuitive. In Figma, when you click on the canvas without selecting anything, you can access the file’s styles. Can we bring that same concept into Slides?When I open the template selector, I can edit the styles there through a dropdown. Is that really the best or only way to manage styles in Figma Slides? I don’t think so.Colors & Text Styles: I can delete them, but only through a pretty complex interaction — right-click?Layout Grid: How can I set a default grid? Right now, I have to manually add my custom grid to every new slide I create. If we can't set a default, the feature kind of loses its purpose. :(  

Every time I exit Figma and come back, the previously selected sort order is lost, and it defaults to "Last modified" – "Newest first". Previously, the selected sorting option was always preserved.

Hi guys! I’m also interested in this improvement.

It’s the year 2023, and Figma still doesn’t have native table support. I just spent 30 minutes re-jigging all the “cells” in a four-row, six-column fake table because I had to delete one column, add another, add icons, and then manually re-fit/resize all the cells to get things to align properly. I can either fake a table row with a horizontal autolayout, or fake a table column with a vertical autolayout, but it’s still not a table. I want the ability to create a special frame called a Table, that: has an arbitrary number of columns and rows auto-resizes columns evenly based on content width has one or more Header / footer rows can scroll with overflow content (optional) has optional properties for hover / click states (cell, column or row) has optional properties for alternate-line shading can toggle columns or rows to hide as needed can merge or split cells as needed can set text alignment for a column (center, left, right, or currency / decimal) can set to automatically use monospa

It would be nice when a designer need to share a page in figma file, they can limit access to other pages for the gustes.So guests see only the specific page and can’t navigate to the other page within the Figma file. What do you think? Many thanks
