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.

Add branching and merging features to Figma Slides

Having a rolling slide deck always being the source of truth (without the need to create copies) makes it super easy for business use - however we are largely unable to actively work on slide changes in these existing documents because of the risk it’s currently being viewed or presented.Being able to create a hidden branch and merge back into the main document (same as Figma Design) would make handling changes a breeze.

Native Lottie Support in Figma

Hey Figma team ✌🏻,Loving all the new features you’ve been shipping lately! That said, me and many others still really hoping for native Lottie support. Right now, using GIFs just isn’t cutting it. They tend to be pixelated, and higher quality versions are often locked behind a paywall. Adobe XD had this figured out a while ago, so I’m curious: is there a reason Lottie integration hasn’t made it to Figma yet? Or is it something we shouldn't expect in future?Being able to use Lottie animations directly in files would take prototyping to a whole new level. Just wanted to share this as desperate designer, who wanted direct Lottie integration more than the illustration feature. Thanks for all the great work you’re doing!

Users should be able to apply character-based overrides to typography styles

For example if I have a paragraph with a certain style applied, I should be able to override some properties individually such as italic, bold, underline, strikethrough.  I come from the olden days of desktop publishing and this was a core feature of all professional-level software — separate paragraph and character style sheets.I would love to see this everywhere in Figma, but I think an urgent need is within slides. Because in slides we are publishing actual content and it’s a pain to create separate styles for little changes like this. They are also brittle and can very easily be accidentally overridden when reformatting something.

Changing the location of annotations on the sheet

It would be a great idea to add the ability to move annotations (сhanging the place). Right now, they’re fixed in place and can overlap other elements. And you cannot change it.What I mean is the ability to reposition an annotation freely while keeping the link to the target object intact.Annotations are a really useful feature—thank you! Previously, I had to create similar functionality using my own objects. Please do not move this offer to another discussion. 🙏Can we move the Figma Annotations (in dev mode) from one Figma project to another?These are different questions.

Add the ability to wrap text around objects

There’s currently no way to wrap text around an object like an icon, spot illustration, or image. The only solution is to manually break the copy into 2 text boxes and add the second one underneath the icon. We had big plans for our design system to include scaled variants of components where text would need to wrap around icons and spot illustrations to save screen space. So not having this feature makes it hard to design for accessibility and see how components will scale. It’s a little tricky to get the line height right, and also means we can’t easily add scaled variants to our existing design system library. It’s also stopping us from creating a plugin where designers could stress test their designs with larger accessible fonts. Would be great if Figma could add this as a feature. Has anyone else had this issue? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

Figma Slides - Add Ability to import Google Sheets/Keynote/Powerpoint, add charts, and import CSV

Adding the ability to create basic charts in Figma Slides would be great. I rely heavily on displaying data in Google Slides to present to the team along with screenshots of our product. I would like to not use Google Slides anymore. Another great addition to add later would be to import a CSV with data or a Google Sheets integration to pull the data from Sheets.

Auto publishing and updating of libraries

I'm the Design Lead of Design Systems Division. And our organization currently holds 1k members (Figma seats). Several of our design systems are modular and component-based, with one supporting 22 real-time dashboards and a total of 174,000 inserts of core components. These components are organized into groups, each stored in a separate library file. The libraries are linked to organisms (files), which are then integrated into templates. This structure ensures flexibility, scalability, and performance but requires significant time for library updates, occasionally leading to the use of outdated versions.We planned to develop a plugin for semi-auto library publishing/updating to reduce maintenance time and eliminate errors caused by outdated versions. However, the current Figma REST API doesn't support library publishing/update functions, which limits automation possibilities.We kindly request to Figma team to consider adding library “publishing and update” features to the Figma REST AP

Configure font weight and font style separately

It’s great that I can use variables within Text styles, but there’s a large problem with configuring font weight. I want to use number variables for my font weights. Unfortunately, if I want italics, I am forced to use string variables for my weights. Figma clearly has logic to isolate font-weight and font-style from the chosen weight configuration in the UI (as seen in CSS code output), so why can’t I configure these two properties separately and Figma recombines them on the backend to identify the font face to load?

"On Scroll" for prototyping

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?

Use percentages for heights, widths, paddings, gutters in auto layout

This makes it easier to use components in designs for different screen sizes. And then you don’t have to calculate every time what 40% or 60% of the width is. This also makes it easier to design scalable applications that grow with the width of the screen.

Export Figma on editable PowerPoint

Hello, It’s possible in the future to export a Figma frame’s on editable PowerPoint, like it’s possible on Canva ? I know isn’t the principal functionality on Figma, but I think it’s a new possibility to create 😃

Allow Figma Slides to export as .ppt or Google Slides

Figma slides is great! One thing that our team has been missing since we’ve been using it is an option to export to .ppt. Our team works a lot on decks for external clients and we would love to use Figma Slides to do that.

A possibility to add tags to our document for a better file search

In massive organisations with tons of projects and documents, we are trying to figure a way to tag them in order to facilitate our job when searching for anything.. The implementation of a tag system would be quite welcome. Here is a sample image of what I mean below :

Allow edits to your local dictionary

Summary: Allow edits to your local dictionary. Details: You can accidentally add a misspelled word to your local dictionary in Figma, but they don't give you as the user or their support / engineering team to remove it. That misspelled word will just never be spelled checked for you in your added misspelling again. Our engineering team has confirmed that it's not currently possible to remove words that have been added to your local dictionary. They have also confirmed that it's not yet on the road map but the team may address it in a quality week. Help article content: "Once a word has been added to your dictionary, it cannot be removed." is why I'm reaching out for help to get it removed.

Pin or resize library stickers modal in Figjam

The stickers/plugins etc sit in an awful pop up model frame that covers half your FigJam board (if on a laptop for example) so poor UI design for us users. We really need to have the ability to move/hide/reside these and ideally pin them for quick reuse.I initially raised this as a bug with Figma as the Pin Libraries to board (dock) use to be a feature and disappeared from FigJam in the UI3 update - it was still highlighted in their guidance here https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500004290841-Use-stickers-and-libraries-in-FigJam#Pin_libraries_to_board Though my suggestion was locked and cannot be updated and the guidance on that page has been changed.This is a case of UI design going backwards for usability and accessibility so I hope they provide an update soon.I know there was a lot of backlash on the inability to dock/pin in Figma and I imagine users feel the same for FigJam too.Can we please have the ability to resize and/or pin the sticker/library modals in Figjam for easy

View user's Drafts as an Enterprise Admin

Is it possible to view a user’s drafts as an Enterprise admin or a Team admin?As an admin I really should be able to view all files that have been created, but it seems that user’s drafts are still private even after the update.

Sticky comments in prototype

In prototypes, comments do not scroll whenever you scroll the page.This can be fixed by getting the mouse-wheel scroll and moving the comments for each step either up/down (/left/right on horizontal scroller).This would at least give the illusion of “sticky” comments which many people need. The most robust approach would be to save the location of a comment in scroll-able boxes by index/coordinates. This feature is a MUST to be able to communicate with clients efficiently on larger projects. Best regards,LM from rechenwerk,Essen, Deutschland

Allow us to expose Annotations and Measurements to View Seat users.

Hi,The addition of annotations and measurements to Design mode is such a great decision.However this is rendered almost useless if the annotations and measurements can’t be made visible to View Seat users.Often annotations are used for communication with a range of stakeholders, not just designers and developers. It’s not viable to upgrade every stakeholder to a Full or Dev seat to engage with this content.

Nested property hidden with multiple selection

Been playing around with the “expose nested properties” feature currently in beta. One of the great uses of variant properties is the ability to batch edit property values on multiple selected components. That use doesn’t carry over to exposed nested properties (yet I hope). Demo file to help When selecting one component instance exposing nested properties, said properties display fine. Add another instance of the same component to your selection (using Shift+Click), and the nested properties outright disappear from the right panel. I haven’t seen this issue raised elsewhere! Do you experience it too?

Nested instances nest inside their parent in the properties panel

To help organize nested instance properties in the properties panel, it would be great to have them collapse inside their parent component in the list. E.g I have made a component with several cards. The card component allows me to turn on and off the title, text, image, and button. I can also change any of the text from the properties panel. → When I use an instance of the component in my designs, I must scroll through all the open nested properties before I can edit card number 7. If I were to see an accordion with cards 1-7 with their nested instances hidden beneath, it would be less confusing and much quicker.

Figma Slides: Sharing to non-Figma users

One of the key pieces of functionality of Slides competitors (like Canva or Google Slides) is the ability to share a slide deck with anyone, even those outside of the Figma account. Here’s my use-case: Made a slide deck in Figma Slides Want to share it with my whole company and with external stakeholders (e.g. our Board) These people don’t have Figma accounts I can do this very easily in Canva or Google Slides But it seems I have to manually invite everyone into the file in Figma slides

Ability to use the right-click to move around the canvas

I find it really frustrating to have to either hold the space button or toggle between the hand tool to move around on my board. Can you please include an option to let us hold the right mouse button to hover and move around on the board?

Can fixed position elements be responsive?

I encountered an issue as I was building a prototype.When going into the prototype mode, we have the option to change the scaling to be “responsive”, which allows anyone who access the prototype to view it at full screen size, regardless of their device dimensions, which is great.  However, fixed position elements, such as a bottom sticky drawer, do not go responsive. They do not stretch left and right together with other scrolling elements. When looking at the alignment options, it looks like “left and right” and “scale” are disabled. That’s why it doesn’t go responsive. If we could enable the  “left and right” option for fixed position elements, so that my bottom drawer can be responsive and stretch to full screen width, that would be great..

Enable Figma design URLs in Figma Make prompts

Enable Figma Links (page/selection/node) in prompts for Figma Make.Figma Make should be able to connect to our design files and reference the design instead of relying on an image. Using Figma URL into Make and it can read the structure and styling directly Figma Make should be able to detect Code Connect (like MCP) and use React components
