I’ve been asked a couple of times if the font size can be made bigger by colleagues within the feedback panel because they can’t see it. We might be a bit older than most using this software but it would still be a helpful setting to include.

I wanted to share an idea that’s been on my mind: I think Figma could benefit from a dedicated design staging environment. Developers have staging to validate functionality before production, but designers don’t really have an equivalent space to validate design behavior at a higher fidelity. A staging-like environment in Figma would let designers build and test more realistic flows, interactions, and states — something deeper than prototypes but lighter than full development. It could help teams surface UX issues earlier, experiment safely, and hand off work with more clarity. I also think it would make it much easier for developers to understand the design. Right now, presenting prototypes in Figma can get messy, especially on bigger projects. For example:– Sometimes the Figma UI can get in the way when sharing previews.– Prototype links end up long and awkward to share.– You usually need separate URLs for desktop, mobile, and tablet.– There’s no true responsiveness, so everything fe

Bringing this up for visibility. I have a page for “components” and a page for layouts in my design file. These components have many states, so I try to keep things organized by separating project specific variations of key pieces in their own page away from the prototype mockups.  I have a tooltip in these components - on hover it displays another component as an overlay. This works great in the component page - but use that component elsewhere in the file and the overlay doesn’t carry over. I can add the overlay, but have to connect each instance of the tooltip (it’s a quoter, so there’s lots of possible variations) on every variation of my component - which defeats the purpose. It looks like this is something others have asked for: ^Like this one if you’re interested.

Hi,I often need the super useful new “Translate to...” AI feature, it’s great, thank you!One way to make it even greater would be to save which language was used last and use it as the default selection. Now I always have to type “ger” to get “Germany” and press enter, bc “Arabic” is the default since it starts with “a”. Just like the cmd+P menu has a “Recents” with the last action on top, I would propose to introduce this for the language selection of the “Translate to...” tool :) Thanks for the consideration,Mikka

In Prototype, Conditional can be used when Trigger is set to None, enabling state monitoring.I believe this can lead to more convenient prototype design, reducing the extensive and cumbersome wiring in Prototype mode. At the same time, this approach will be more suitable for future AI editing, incorporating more code-oriented thinking. 

下面的figma，上面是mastergo，兩者的區別有一個新的分類，同一個大類裡面有不同的頁面作為區分。 figma 缺少此

Has anyone found a way to copy, transfer or move the new local variables to another file or collection? Just created around 400 color variables manually in the wrong file and would hate having to re-create them in the correct one 😅

Hi Figma team and community! 👋 I've noticed several posts from users looking for a way to export Figma prototypes as video (MP4 or GIF). Right now, the only available solutions seem to be third-party plugins or screen recording tools, which work—but aren't always ideal when we need quick, high-quality exports to share with clients or on social media. I’m wondering if Figma has any plans to include native support for exporting prototypes to video in the near future. This would be an incredibly helpful feature for presenting flows, especially for marketing or stakeholder presentations. Would love to hear if this is something that’s on the roadmap, or being considered! Thanks 🙏

It would be great if the professional plan offered more than 4 variable modes. Right now I want to set up a mode for each component size-- XS - XL, 5 sizes all together-- which puts me over the 4 limit for pro, but well under the 40 limit for enterprise, which is a quantity I will never need. And there’s no use case for enterprise at all for a team our size. I think 10-12 modes for pro would be perfect to give small teams like mine room to grow before we reach the scale where an enterprise plan would be worth consideration.

I would like to be able to save the animations and motion graphics I create in Figma, such as intros and animated loading screens, as videos so I can use them in my projects and share them with the team. Currently, I have to screen record the animation, which results in lower quality than what's in Figma.

Hi everyone,I’m currently working on a prototype in Figma, and I’m trying to achieve the following keyboard-based interaction: When I press the A key, an overlay appears. When I release the A key, the overlay closes automatically. I noticed that Figma’s "Key" trigger only allows actions to be triggered on key press, but I haven't found any way to differentiate between keydown and keyup, like you would with standard JavaScript events.Is there any workaround or trick to simulate this behavior directly in Figma?Or would I need to use an external tool (like ProtoPie, Framer, or a coded prototype) to make this interaction possible?Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏

Maybe it’s too much to ask for a full-on photoshop within Figma, but here are two features that would help my team and I tremendously moving over from XD. The biggest issue is in XD we can easily click “open in photoshop”, edit an image, save, and go back to XD where that instance of the image is edited live. Some of the things we do very often are placing a color overlay over an image, and erasing parts of an image using a brush. Just thought I’d put this out in the world, thanks for reading!

I’ve been using the Figma’s AI lately and it’s super useful. A useful feature would be the ability to change the image aspect ratio. Currently it’s using the default size, so If I want to expand an image This is How I should do it: ​​​​​A feature like “Expand Image” or “select aspect” ratio in edit image toolbox would be so useful.

Hi everyone, - please find below an alternative workaround to Figma 429 rate limits as well reducing weight on Figma infrastructure which helps the ecosystem ;). This as an immediate fix.The issue isn’t Figma’s limits themselves (which are more recently conservative and problematic), it’s the way large /v1/files/:key?ids=… calls pull entire subtrees (often megabytes), then trigger dozens of image requests when frames have 50-200 children. That burst pattern quickly hits Figma’s limits protection causing 4-5 day lockouts.A proposed solution is to stop fetching everything upfront and adopt a metadata‑first, prune‑first, fetch‑last pipeline:Fetch only component metadata. Pre‑filter locally to remove hidden frames, junk nodes and remote libraries. Fetch a pruned node tree with limited depth (depth=2–3) to keep responses <500 KB. Do code analysis and token extraction locally without extra API calls. Fetch images only for the final deduplicated list, in small adaptive batches with exponen

So I have created a simple form component and used MAKE to create a working version suitable for prototyping (This allows me to have full text entry and validation).The biggest issue is I am unable to tell the ‘Submit’ button to navigate to the next page in the prototype.Even if I tell MAKE to navigate to that page it just doesn’t seem to work.Does anyone have a work-around or solution to this problem?

Hi,Has the Figma team has ever considered a follow mode that allows followers to see the toolbars? I often show other designers how to do something in Figma, but I have to share my screen on Teams so they can see what I’m doing, and then they have to jump to Figma to edit and try what I’m doing themselves. They end up switching back and forth between the Teams and the Figma window.

I wonder why does Figma Make have a limited credit in Educational Plan. It’s sad that when I was making a prototype and I had to leave halfway. If there was a feature to increase the credit limit in some way even if the user is in Educational Plan that would be great.

I want to be able to export designs in PDF for print (CMYK/Hi-resolution) For now, I was using the plugin TinyImage Compressor but it’s no longer free and I don’t understand why Figma can have this option on it’s own. I’d have to pay $456 a year. If Figma has paper sizes, why don’t they have this option… you can’t print quality good quality colors in RGB. I’m going to have to go back to Adobe for print files. Is this happening to anyone else?

Hi,Look at this Text we have in our project:The content depends on `LogBundlesTitle`. It would be awesome to have easy way to change value of that variable without zooming out, clicking somewhere and looking for it in variables manually. Maybe some king of ‘set value’ icon to the right? Or some shortcut like Ctrl+click open variables dialog with this variable selected?

Portfolios and several page sites - okay, got it. Nice!But will we be able to publish blogs, web books, guides, wikipedias? With search engines, sorting / filtering techniques?I’m ready to build a huge web guide site, and so anxious to know CMS capabilities.Love you, Figma!

The mindmap is a critical feature in figjam and it requires a lot of improvements but at least these 2:collapsible trees better shortcuts (tab to move a node, enter to add a branch...)

Well, according to some earlier forum posts, Figma clearly has no plans to launch a Linux app. I don’t personally mind using it in a browser, but local fonts don’t work. Could we at least get a Fonts Helper for Linux, if not the full app? Thanks.

Proposed FeatureAdd a status bar toggle in the design panel for mobile frames. When a default device frame is created, designers should be able to switch the matching status bar on or off without searching files, copying components, or rebuilding status bars manually.This removes the need for standalone status bar components in the layers panel. As long as the frame matches official device dimensions, the design panel shows the status bar toggle and applies the correct, up to date version automatically. This would cut setup time in early design stages and keep files cleaner.:) Feel free to comment and share your thoughts on this feature idea.  Further Improvements to the toggle• Automatic color inversion so the status bar keeps proper contrast on any background, similar to real devices• Controls to adjust status bar elements like the camera, microphone and location indicators

There’s only a handful of color styles I use very often. But I always have to search/scroll past all the ones that aren’t useful. Having a way to sort the color picker by recent would be a game changer for speed and productivity, ideally it would persist till the user changes it. Could probably use an icon button to the left of the grid vs list view.
