Suggest a Feature

It would be great if the code panel would also be visible in the Component playground in Dev Mode. I understand the importance of restricting developers from making changes to the design, which is why we have the Component playground. However, developers might also need to inspect a component in various states, not just the state initially set by me. This feature would greatly benefit developers by reducing the need to navigate back and forth between views, pages, or files. I was envisioning something like this: Thanks!

Design documents open with the page panel closed by default. This is also true for the viewer role and the dev mode. I notice that stakeholders who view our design files have difficulty opening this. This takes us a lot of time to explain each time. Now we have an explanation on our cover page of how it works to open this. I think it actually makes sense if the page panel is open by default. Especially because Figma itself also gives advice on how to divide the design file with multiple pages. If a functionality is so default in use, it must also be open by default. How are you experiencing this?

As a developer with read-only access, I don’t have any means to know/access what the Max lines should be for this text. (which from designer is set to 3)

 I've been here for two days, this service looks good and easy to use. I just want to mention two things. When you download the code, the App.tsx file isn't downloaded, and second, the utils.ts file should be generated in /lib/utils.ts to avoid compilation errors. Well, that's all. Regards.

We use Figma a lot for client presentations and to showcase video snippets. We recently discovered the figjam workaround to embed videos in the Edit View, but its not possible to rescale those Widgets from FigJam and more annoyingly the are not playable in the prototype/presentation view. There is a Plugin called YouTube and Vimeo from Ampier, but its also not working in presentation view…but has more than 45k user…there is a need for it 😉 Pleeeease let us embed Youtube/Vimeo Videos in Figma nativly and also play those videos when presenting. Vote here so that this gets some visbility

Would love if the conditional statement could include IF // IF ELSE instead of just IF // ELSE

I want to share my own experience and I think having the option to collapse all frames and groups at once is very important because it is very annoying to close all groups one by one when you have a lot of them.

Please correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t believe there’s anyway to disable the snap to grid with a keyboard shortcut. Typically in programs I’ve used, you can disable snapping by holding CTRL or ALT. Since ALT has the functionality of duplicating the selected item, it would be nice if holding CTRL then could be used to prevent items from snapping to the grid when dragging them. Thank you+1

I’m super excited to be using native variables in Figma; however, there are couple of glaring holes. Identifying an EM scale for text (maybe this will come with Font Variables support) Need to be able to reference an existing Variable (an Alias) and be able to do math on it; for instance, if Spacer = 20px, i would like to be able to reference {spacer}/2 to get 10px without changing the parent value

The UI can get over crowded with annoying frame/component names hanging off their top edges. I have not found a way to disable/hide these. Please tell me there is a way! 🙂

Super awesome, finally it is here!Feature request: When connected to a full page, it would be great if it could also update other components based on which item in the collection is currently active.

The new variables feature is great! But I’m asking you to add an ability to assign String variables to Text props of component instances. My use case I have a generic component “header” in my company’s design system that can be used with any text. I insert the instance as a part of my specific design frame for iOS. A UX Writer edits the header text. Then, I create a frame for the same screen for Android, Desktop and Mobile Web. In total, I have 4 screens with the same header. Now if the UX writer decides to change the text inside the header instance, they have to copy paste it 4 times. I’d like to solve the sync problem and the need to maintain consistency manually. I wanna make a String variable “screen-1-header” for example, and bind it with the Text property of the “header” instance. BUT as far as I see, Figma doesn’t allow it at the moment, which is sad. I can assign a variable to a text layer that is not a part of a component, but I don’t like the idea of detaching instances from

I’m considering hiring offshore developers for an upcoming project, but I’m unsure about the best approach. There are so many agencies and platforms claiming to provide top talent, yet I keep hearing mixed feedback from people who’ve tried it before. Some say it’s a great way to save money and access specialized skills, while others mention challenges with communication, time zones, and maintaining quality. I’d like to hear from people who have real experience in this area — how did it work out for you, and what would you do differently if you had to hire offshore developers again?

Whenever we copy text from one place and paste it into another text frame, it carries over its own formatting (size, style, etc.). But I want the pasted text to automatically adopt the formatting of the destination text frame. Currently, the copied text’s properties override the destination formatting, which is not ideal.This isn’t a bug, but it feels like behaviour that needs improvement. In most practical scenarios, users copy text because they want to replace the content not the styling. If someone actually wants to preserve the copied text's formatting, they can apply it manually. But by default, it makes more sense for the pasted text to follow the formatting of the target text frame. Can this be fixed or improved?

What is meant by Figma Sites CMS not being available until late 2025 actually mean? I am having to explore other CMS solutions, as a result of the CMS not being available, only after having created a pretty extensive design system for an internal site, components, blocks, and templates. Any update would be extremely helpful.

Hey! I’d like to suggest one update that i believe will help non-designer folks to achieve more with Figma Buzz without additional training/internal guides inside the company.The recently added Figma Buzz support of component variants and swaps is great, but it’s often not super obvious which parts of templates are actually swappable without diving into the template structure & layers. So we often need to rely on internal documentation, or note frames outside of the template to add hints where folks can click to swap/change things.What would be great if in the “Edit content” panel along with text and image fields we’d have a list of changeable components (I.E Components that are not locked in the template master). In that way people who are using templates can discover changeable parts instantly in the same way as they discover and edit regular parts like text and images.

Analytics are critical for understanding adoption and impact in Design Systems. Right now, insights are tucked away in individual library modals, which makes it difficult to monitor patterns at scale.A single Analytics hub — with dashboards, trends, and cross-library metrics — would create a far more useful workflow for teams that need to track quality and usage over time.

After discussing the subject at length with the support, here’s a summary of what Figma allows and doesn’t allow in terms of library sharing (hint: it’s not that simple), and how it could be streamlined: Currently, as a component library creator, here are the options you have in order to share your library (I will not include the options for a Starter plan, they are legitimately limited) As a Pro user: Publish it and share it within your Team (to users you - or your admin - pays for) using the Team library feature. They can access the component anywhere inside the Team’s files, and get realtime updates. Links are preserved throughout even with multiple files. Share it on Community (to users outside your Team): they can duplicate the file to their respective spaces, without live updates. Links won’t be preserved if the library includes multiple files. Share it via link (view-only) to selected users: they can either duplicate it (although not as easy as a Community file), or use it as a

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.

The text in a frame can be independent of other frames, or it can flow between connected frames. To flow text between connected frames, you must first connect the frames. Connected frames can be on the same frame, or on another frame in the document. threading text linking text frames linking text boxes

When we add a delete or close button on a list item or another element on the prototype, the button interaction should delete that item. This way, we don't need to create component structures and states. We can restore the deleted item with reset state. I tried to explain it with an image.explain imageThe red button was added to delete that row. Within the actions area, there will be a “delete item” feature, such as ‘undo’ and “close” operations. In the green marked area and on the prototype, that button will remove that item.

I’d like to know WHO created every annotation, just as with comments.Or at least make it optional. I often want to add “comments” for stakeholders that I want to persist, be visible always, and not be resolvable. So I go with annotations. But I want my name attached to them. At least sometimes.And I find myself asking people “who are these annotations from” quite annoyingly often.
