Suggest a Feature

I want a shortcut to show and hide / expand or collapse the pages and layers panel. If I got one I’d want the pages panel to open and close by keyboard shortcut. It’s too much work to constantly open and close the pages panel. Overall, I’d say that the pages panel needs a UX review. We’ve now got so many pages that it’s a tough experience, but I’d say that if I could choose a page from a dropdown list as opposed to opening and closing the dang panel everytime that would be awesome. Or, ideally what if when I hit page up or down the magic menu (command + p) or whatever it is called displays all pages that I can search on quickly or use the arrows to thumb through them. Some mail applications to do this today for UG folders and it’s way nicer than trying to find a folder. Maybe use that AI money for things like this and not trying to tell me what names my buttons ought to be. ;) 

We’ve come to a point where our team is using Figma Make, we want the ability to add a default (maybe prepend to?) Guidelines.md that we can configure at the team admin level. This would allow us to setup specific style and background information in a standardized fashion across all projects by our team.

The comments feature is very handy amongst the colleagues. It would be nice if the comments bubbles would stick to the object instead of sticking to the position within the frame. Since we are moving stuff around ( adding or subtracting elements ) the comments made should stick to the proper parts of the design. Otherwise, when we move things around, the comments don’t make sense anymore because they do not relate to the object’s new position.

I love variables, they make lives easier. But would it be possible to combine multiple variables in one click. For instance, I design a lot of cards in UI, and they all have a grey outline (var 1) with a 5px border (var 2) and a 20 px padding (var 3), and I have to add them one by one. Could I just define those 3 variables in 1master variable so I only have to apply that master variable? Creating a card component isn’t the solution for me as many cards can have different internal layouts.

As a figma user I want the option to add a synonym or abbreviation to my profile to speed up the commenting process in the design files.E.g. I’d like to show my real name for the other users, but I’d also like them to refer to me with just typing my initials. 

While I appreciate Figma keeping the frame presets updated with the latest hardware, the current organization makes it difficult for designers who prefer specific devices sizes/or is part of the deliverable (like me and the iPhone 13 Mini <3) for their workflow. Currently, I have to scroll to the 'Archive' section every time I want to create a new frame. This adds unnecessary friction to my process.Proposed Solution: Give users the ability to 'Pin' their most-used frames to the top of the sidebar, or allow us to toggle the visibility of specific device categories—similar to how the 'Inspect' mode in Chrome allows you to customize which devices appear in the list. This would allow us to prioritize the screen sizes that fit our specific design.Or other suggestion: just give us the control over it. :P 

Dear team, Please add a layers panel for Figma Team, just like how you would in Webflow. It is hard to imagine which layers we are selecting. This is so we can be more accurate in our prompts.Looking forward to granting this feature.Regards,Aileen

currently working at an agency and they won’t switch to Figma due to the issue of Internal vs. external comments and how this is solved in Invision with Private Comments. I feel like if we just had private or even levels of permission (admin) comments vs. guest comments Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?

This is a feature that would really improve the cross-pollination between the two systems! Right now it only functions for videos or static photos. At the very least, a simple download button would suffice- allowing you to manually download another user’s GIF upload and drop yourself into the slides document. Currently you’d have to request the file be sent separately. thanks!

Problem:Currently, FigJam is an excellent tool for collaborative brainstorming and ideation. However, when transitioning from high-level conceptualization to more structured representations like flowcharts, sequence diagrams, or entity-relationship diagrams, users are often forced to switch to other tools or manually draw these complex diagrams, which is time-consuming, prone to errors, and difficult to maintain. This breaks the seamless flow from idea to implementation, creating a gap between the initial brainstorming phase and the detailed technical documentation or code implementation. The lack of text-based diagramming also limits the ability to easily version control diagrams or generate them programmatically.Solution:Integrate native support for Mermaid.js within FigJam. This would allow users to create various diagrams (flowcharts, sequence, class, state, ER, Gantt, etc.) directly using Mermaid's simple, Markdown-inspired syntax within a dedicated block or widget in FigJam.Key f

Right now, working with branches is quite limiting in the sense that: If I have a Figma project, with 2 frames (Frame “A” and “B”) contained within the same section I open my branch and select “Update from main…” Frame “A” has some changes I want to APPLY to the branch, BUT Frame “B” has some changes I want to KEEP in the branch PROBLEM: because both frames are contained within the same section, when updating from main file, I can only resolve the conflicts by updating all the frames, and therefore losing either the uptades in the branch or in from the main file. What I need: More granularity in what updates from the main file I need to ADD from the main file and which ones to keep in the current branch I’m working. Conflict resolution today is ALL or NOTHING and this doesn’t work. Sections are great for keeping my files organized, but they’re making it IMPOSSIBLE to work with Figma branches. Please fix this. Thank you!

Something thats always been tedious is the Figma export function. It would be helpful for there to be a button that takes you to the folder you’ve exported your assets. This is most often a problem when exporting assets into multiple tiers of folders, and having to navigate between the folder and the Figma file.

For the moment the “ready to dev” in the top left corner show all status of a “ready to dev” task (ready + completed)The number shown become unclear the real number of ready to dev task to do. I may have 1-2 tasks but the number show 24. I don’t think knowing the total number of task relevant. It’s would probably better to allowed to filter that number to user specific need. Tx.

Hello Figma Team, I hope you’re doing well. I’m writing to request that you please do not stop or heavily limit the Figma AI credits after March. The current credit limitation (around 3000–3500 credits per month) is very restrictive for teams like ours that rely heavily on Figma AI for daily design work. If continuing unlimited usage is not possible by default, we would really appreciate an option to purchase a monthly AI credit plan even for just one month at a time. We are fully willing to pay for an upgraded or add-on plan that provides unlimited or significantly higher AI usage, rather than being capped at a fixed credit limit. Figma AI has become an essential part of our workflow, and strict credit limitations significantly impact productivity. Offering a paid, flexible credit or unlimited plan would be extremely helpful for professional teams. Thank you for considering this request. We truly value Figma and hope for a solution that supports high-usage teams. Best regards,Rahul Ka

Hey everyone,I work extensively with Figma prototypes, and one functionality I feel is really missing is onScroll.the ability to trigger interactions based on scroll events (similar to scroll animations or parallax effects available in other tools).Does anyone know if Figma plans to add this feature in the near future?If not, are there any smart workarounds to achieve scroll-based animations within Figma itself without relying on external tools?Would love to hear your thoughts!Thanks!

Ver aquelas várias pessoas no arquivo enquanto eu trabalho me deixa ansiosa. / I feel anxious when I see many people in the file while I am working.

Anyone knows if Figma mentioned something about adding analytics to their slides in presentation mode? Same as pitch.com where you can measure the data from people that open the deck? If not, it might be a nice idea on the roadmap for Figma Slides? What are your thoughts on this?

Hi,I am currently using your platform for a university project and have unfortunately run out of educational credits. As a result, I can no longer access or demonstrate the prototype I have already built.I wanted to ask whether it would be possible to receive a small, one-time credit extension so I can complete the project and final evaluation. The prototype is already finished, and the additional credits would only be used for limited testing and demonstration purposes.Thank you very much for considering my request.Kind regards,Akira

When I want to access annotations via API on edit mode, I just need to check the node.annotations object.It would be great to also have a node.measurements object to work with.When annotations came to edit mode in beta at my org, I created a plugin for deleting all annotations after a colleague complained they needed to delete them for stakeholders.I’ve got someone asking to make it work with measurements as well, but that’s not really possible without a new API endpoint for it accessible via edit mode.

Currently, Figma does not provide a way to set a global or file-level default font for newly created text layers. When creating a new text object, the font is determined by the most recently used text style or Figma’s default font, which often leads to inconsistent typography and unnecessary repetitive adjustments.This limitation creates several issues: Designers must repeatedly change the font, weight, and size for every new text layer, increasing friction in daily workflows. Brand and design system consistency is harder to maintain, especially in team collaboration and onboarding scenarios. The problem is more pronounced for non-Latin workflows (e.g., Chinese, Japanese, Korean), where default fonts like Inter or Roboto are rarely used. Suggested ImprovementIntroduce a “Default Text Settings” feature at the file or workspace level, allowing designers to define: Default font family Default font weight Default font size Line height and letter spacing (optional) These settings

Maybe if we could alter the speed at which the elements of the screen move, we could generate interesting effects such as parallax scrolling. Imagine you have a frame and an image object inside that is going to scroll at 0.75x of the regular speed. This will create a parallax effect.

It would be great to have the option to set the asset filename using a data field out of the Spreadsheet file being used to do bulk create.By selecting the asset filename and assinging it to the respective datafield, the assets created would have the names described in the spreadsheet as filenames. Inside exel, google sheets or other program we can easily create a formula that generates the desired filename to each asset. Right now filenames are auto-generated or fixed, which means extra manual renaming after export. Being able to map a column like filename, slug, or ID to the asset name would make batch exports much smoother.This would be especially useful for high-volume workflows (social assets, product images, variants, etc.) and would save a lot of time while reducing errors.

Idea: Once a Figma Make file is connected to GitHub, automatically generate and maintain a changelog.md in the docs. I created one manually and it’s neat. It feels like it should be native. Part of a broader versioning and release history system tied to GitHub pushes maybe? 🤷‍♂️

Hi Figma team,After updating the desktop app today, I noticed that the Auto Layout panel no longer appears when selecting an Auto Layout frame. Additionally, the Layer panel now uses icons, making it difficult to distinguish between Frames and Auto Layout containers.Interestingly, the web version works correctly, showing the Auto Layout settings as expected.This change has significantly affected my workflow, and I hope you can either restore the panel visibility or provide a clearer way to access Auto Layout settings in the desktop app.Thank you for your attention!

1. Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this I can open 1 plugin at time, the plugins are located only in plugin section. I don’t have any possibility to add plugin to UI (exp. sidebar). Also plugin windows can be opened only in Figma webview window. 2. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) example of sidebar for plugins 3. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation Does anyone else have same problems?
