Suggest a Feature

I added a prototype in Slides that was of a mobile app flow. I forgot to change the prototype in Figma to set a device (Ex: iPhone 14) so I went into the Figma design file and set the device. Then when I went back into Slides it still showed the old prototype embedded with no device. I didn’t see a way to refresh or update the prototype. The workaround I found was to delete the prototype and try adding it to slides again. That worked but it would be better to have it automatically update or a button to reload it.

Stamps are a cool feature, but I’m consistently disappointed by them. Straight up, we need:The entire standard emoji library as stamps Ability to add other people’s pfp icons as stickers (you can only do your own) The ability to add custom stamps I think #1 is the most impactful and would address some of the other, similar suggestions. I don’t even want Figma to make their own version of the emojis, they can just be 1:1 with some standard library (google’s, twemoji, etc.)

I’d love to see CSS-style color adjustment filters like brightness, contrast, hue-rotate, and saturation introduced as Effects. Oftentimes, I end up endlessly tweaking different blend mode and color fill stack combinations just to hit the right saturation or contrast. This can be frustrating, especially when it could be done more precisely and in a fraction of the time with a direct way to set these values.I’ve also found blend modes to be less developer-friendly and prone to unnecessary complexity. They absolutely have their place, but for software and web design, color adjustment filters seem more practical in many cases. Blend modes feel like a legacy holdover from graphic design tools and they can be a pain to implement consistently with devs.

When collaborating remotely in Figma, it would be extremely helpful to have a built-in chat feature. This would allow us to communicate directly within the design workspace, rather than 1) adding temporary text fields or 2) switching to Slack, Teams, or another external channel. So far, we’ve mostly been using the first method, which is far from ideal.

Hello!I am part of a team working on a gigantic Ui-Library serving multiple brands and devices (thank you, variables) all within big master-components with a lot variants. And of course our file got very full and complex very fast. We try our best to keep it clustered and everything visualized nicely, but as a user of the library, its just awful to browse. (Zooming out > panning > zooming in > switching pages > landing somewhere close up bc I visited earlier..) ugh. My feature request is to give us a new way for handing of library components!No, the lib view/selection dialog in the other files is just working If one exactly knows what to look out for..→ I am more thinking of something like the Material Design website. A place where components are organized wiki-like, have a lot of descriptive things going on (do’s, donts’, motion..) and are sometimes interactable. Of course I can take-away the component (or put it into a “cart” to continue browsing for now..)→ In addition t

I am a web designer and there is no plan that covers all my needs except for the complete one with 7 programs, of which I would only use 3. You should create customizable plans that allow users to choose which modules to subscribe to. I don't see why I should spend 16 euro a month on 7 modules and only use 3. Thank you.

When the Figma Make is doing its code rebuild following a prompt I make, would be great to have a tab notification at the top to indicate it's completed. The reason being that I may have gone to do something in another Figma tab whilst waiting for MAKE to finish it's code changes.

In my web browser (both Chrome and Edge) I can easily/quickly switch between tabs thanks to the keyboard shorcut option + command + left/right arrow.This is an “interactin pattern” they also use in e.g. Figma. (The exact same key combination.)Personally I would really appreciate to have this keyboard shortcut in Miro too, so that I can more easily / faster switch beteen the different Miro boards that I have open.

 I’m working on swapping the library for a large design file. The process uses so much memory that I can’t swap all components at once. I have to manually pick which components to swap. However, when I open the swap library modal, every component is already selected by default. This means I have to uncheck everything before I can select only the components I want.So how about:Select all option for swap library Optimize swapping library so that it won’t crash in the middle of the process. I don’t mind waiting for 30 minutes.Thanks.

Hello,  I’m trying to take my AI Make design and export so that I can add code to create functionality.  How can this be accomplished?  Any plugins?  

Adobe Illustrator has this very nice feature where you can tell Illustrator that you want to focus on editing a specific group of objects. Once you are in ‘isolation mode,’ other objects in the canvas are dimmed, and you will only be able to select and modify objects at that level and below. For example, when you were in isolation mode, you could drag the selection marque over a set of objects and you wouldn’t accidentally select objects from other groups (e.g. using Command + drag in Figma will select items in other groups). This is SO convenient, and it’s the biggest thing I miss from switching to Figma. I would love to see a feature implemented in Figma that copies this Illustrator functionality — it is easily my number one feature request. A quick video showing isolation mode: More information: https://tutsweet.net/illustrator/understanding-isolation-mode-in-adobe-illustrator

I’d love to see Figma Make include the ability to download essential build configuration files—such as package.json, tsconfig.json, vite.config.js, and others—when exporting code. This feature would greatly simplify the process of running projects locally by providing the full environment setup required for development. It would enable users to clone or open the exported code directly in their preferred local editor and begin testing or customizing right away, without needing to recreate the project setup from scratch.This would especially benefit developers who want to iterate quickly on prototypes or integrate Figma-generated code into larger applications. Thanks for considering!

Figma: If you’re used to working in another design tool, you may find it strange that your text styles in Figma don’t include traits like color or justification. Although it could take some getting used to, hopefully the benefits of this approach will quickly become clear. Well, no it didn’t. And strange indeed. In addition to getting used to, it takes a lot of time to to change the color every single time I create a new text element, because our text color is not black. Having a default color saved with text styles would be SO. MUCH. EASIER. I see no reason why the color can’t be in there and also be changed when using the style, if necessary.

I want to suggest a feature. You developed a new hidden panel option, but it’s actually annoying that I can’t hide the Design and Prototype panel when selecting an object. When I’m trying to drag and move elements, I don’t always need that panel — I only use it occasionally to make changes to the object. I’d like to be able to drag freely inside my workspace, especially since my laptop screen is small and the panel takes up a lot of space.

Sidebar sections are crucial for our team. We recently downgraded from Organization to Professional and the sidebar sections were removed. I understand they are only for Organization and Enterprise plans, but I ask that you make them available to all paid plans, since there are many organizations with smaller teams who cannot afford Organization or Enterprise plans.

It would be nice to have a video player that is also available for user that have no edit permissions on a FigJam. Now it’s not possible to pause/play while not editor.

It seems like Figma Make can import a library but only takes the default variable mode. Is there a way to import using different variable mode or change after importing?

Thanks for adding annotations to Design Mode. I have been spending the last day annotating some new design ideas. People who have access to the Figma file love that they can read come design rationale and interaction behaviors. For others, who do not have access, or do not use Figma it would be great if I can export the annotations associated with objects inside a frame.  Thanks, K.

I’d like to be able to export a page from Figma to PDF. So far I see this works quite well in FigJam (you can either export all as one file or individual selected section, but Figma does not support exporting section, only frames can be exported. 😦 frowning: User story: As a teacher, I want my students to up-load their designs to our grading platform (Gradewok), so I can grade and archive their work. PDF works great for this because it can be viewed in Gradework. A local copy does not work well because that means I have to download the files and open them in Figma again. Making the grading proces way to time consuming. As a teacher I want my students to be able to easily export their work from Figma So I don’t have to guide them through a multi-step process, knowing that students are likely to delay their export to the last minute and will be in a time crunch when exporting (and upload) for their work, the current way of exporting is not sufficiently supporting this.

The library we are using in our company can be modified by several people in the team. When I want to publish changes to the library, sometimes I would see changes I didn’t make. Or sometimes it was a change I actually made that had an impact on another component, but it’s difficult to understand right away given that you can’t have a close look at what has changed exactly (the preview is so tiny!) It would be great to have some kind of before/after preview each time I hover one of the components in the “changes” list. It would reduce the risk of publishing wrong components that are not well built. Because right now I always have to ask my team if they have touched anything in the library which is getting tiresome to be honest. Thanks ✨

Inputs are one of the most common UI design elements out there. But when you have to use them in a prototype there isn’t a good way to show what they look like when entering text. It’d also be great if we could trigger validation events like on a password input for example. This would bring more fidelity to my prototypes than just about anything.

The ProblemWhen working on long artboards, particularly for mobile designs or landing pages, selecting the entire artboard is inefficient. If I am scrolled to the bottom of the page, I have to scroll all the way back to the top just to click the artboard's name/title. This breaks the design workflow for a very common action. Proposed SolutionAllow a user to select an artboard from any point within its boundaries. A possible implementation could be: When the user hovers over an empty area of an artboard, its name (e.g., "iPhone 14 Pro - 1") appears as a clickable tooltip or overlay. Clicking this name would select the entire artboard frame. This provides a quick selection method without interfering with selecting other layers, as it would only appear over the artboard's empty background. BenefitThis feature would significantly speed up workflow and reduce unnecessary scrolling, making the design process smoother for anyone working with long-format content.

Please include 3:1 arrow end terminations. 1:1 ratio arrows look goofy.On the left is what is currently available with Figma. On the right is a moc up of what I’m asking for.   

 Hi everyoneFigma is the central hub for our design work, but two critical parts of the product development lifecycle often happen in separate, disconnected tools: user research and font creation.I'm proposing two powerful new features that could bring these essential workflows directly into Figma: 'Forum': An integrated tool for creating and analyzing user surveys. 'Type': A professional tool for designing and creating typography (fonts).
