Hi, Thank you for Figma Motion it’s great !There is one thing I can’t figure out : once I have set motion on the components, then add them to my website frame (desktop, mobile...) how can I set a trigger for the motion to begin ?For now, it appears that they all run at the same time, when the page is loadedIn AE, we can work on different elements (as we do here on components) and then add them to a precomposition so we can choose when to start etc…Can we add this on Figma Motion or on Prototype but the trigger won’t be a timing but a scroll ?Like, you have your full page : Header, Hero, Editorial whatever, and I would like the animation on the Editorial section to start when the user scrolls 10% on itThank you for your help !

When you publish a component that contains nested components from another library (or that are bound/linked), the publish dialog doesn't make it clear which nested components are linked externally. This causes confusion about what's actually being published and what's being inherited.The publish dialog should list any linked or bound nested components above or alongside the component being published, so designers can understand the full dependency chain before confirming.

Currently, publishing components to a shared library requires going through the Assets panel or Publish dialog, where components are listed individually. There's no way to select multiple components directly on the canvas and publish just those.Being able to multi-select components on the canvas and trigger a "Publish selected" action would significantly speed up library maintenance workflows, especially when iterating on a subset of components.

Hi, We are working on a pixelart project and figured out it would actually speedup our workflow A LOT if it was possible to disable Anti-Aliasing everywhere for viewing, editing and exporting. Having the option to disable it per object could also be interesting. Is this something you guys could add? Thank you very much.

Unable to copy modals, popups, menus or other elements that open within a page. When I run the chrome extension any open popup automatically closes on the page. This would be incredibly useful because our product has a lot of modal focused workflows. Other extensions like magicpatterns are able to capture these for a reference. Thanks!

Hey, guys! Recently I start to prototype an UI for LCD display device. It doesn’t have any pixel opacity control, only pure contrast essentially. I discovered Figma doesn’t have any way to turn off anti-aliasing for vectors. So ofcourse I became frustrated. Such cool editor and still don’t have basic things. Guys, we need to cover this.  

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this The issue with this feature has been covered many times in Spectrum discussions:Spectrum – 3 Jan 18 There is a way to avoid this by holding SPACE as soon as you click & don’t start dragging the object. But why force us to do acrobatics with our fingers by holding down an additional button, just to move the object? Why not provide an option to disable that functionality completely? Nagaraj Chandran had a very logical idea in his comment: “I don’t want to hold the spacebar key to disable auto-nesting. Maybe, it should be the other way around. Hold spacebar or any other key to auto-nest.” Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) More than enough in discussions on Spectrum ☝️ Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation Does anybody find this feature useful? If yes, please enlighten me on how to make use of it because it’s driving me insane and ki

As a freelance user of Figma, I find the current seat-based model effective for structured team collaboration, but it creates friction in freelance and cross-workspace scenarios.There are two specific situations where the current model feels restrictive:First, when two already-subscribed users need to collaborate on a single file, one of them may still be treated as an additional billable editor within the other’s workspace. This can lead to a form of duplicate billing, even though both users are already paying for the platform.Second, there is currently no lightweight alternative to full workspace membership for temporary collaboration. Even short-term or file-specific work often requires assigning a full editor seat, which is not always aligned with the scope of the collaboration.A potential improvement could combine both issues by introducing more flexible collaboration options. For example, allowing already-paid users to collaborate across workspaces without triggering additional e

Can we please get the ability to set a components dimensions to Fill Container from right inside the master component, so we don’t have to manually set it each time we pull in an instance. It can get quite annoying, especially when adding items to a Slot.

When a variable is applied to a property (fill, text, spacing, etc.), there's no way to quickly navigate to that variable's definition to edit it. You have to manually open the Variables panel, find the collection, and locate it by name — which is slow when working across large design systems.It would be ideal to have a clickable link on any variable reference in the inspect or design panel that takes you directly to that variable in the Variables panel so you can edit it in place.

Is there any plan to be able to create the gradient itself as a variable? For example, if I wanted some themes to have a solid background variable but others to have a gradient?

Similarly to how in a Git repo we can block any changes to be committed in the main branch, it would be nice to allow the same behavior in Figma. New changes should only come from the merging requests of branches.

This is an idea to allow Figma Admins to customize the instructions that users see when they request an upgrade in their access. This would save time and confusion for Figma Enterprise admins. Here’s why:For Enterprise customers using SCIM, upgrade requests are often handled via tools and processes external to Figma, such as ServiceNow. (The requests are reviewed and approved, then the user is added to the correct ActiveDirectory group).But, users often don’t know this, and when they request an upgraded license (say from View to Dev or Full), the Figma Admin has to intercept the request in the Admin Dashboard and send a separate email to the requester instruction them about the company process that exists outside of Figma. This is extra work for the Admin, and potentially adds confusion and delays to the process.It would be ideal if the Admin could create a custom instruction to be displayed in the upgrade request UI.  The message they would create would vary by company, but would be s

When hiding annotations with shift + y or right-clicking on the annotation > hide annotations, there is no clear and persistent visual indicator in the UI showing that the annotations are hidden.I even triggered my company's design time only to later discover that my annotations were hidden and the design was complete hahaha

I'd like to suggest a new feature where I could hover through styles and (temporary) changes color/font at the same moment. 

The animation capabilities are absolutely fantastic, especially being able to export as an animated SVG. It would be ideal if we could export as a MOV file because videos with transparent backgrounds mean we can create lower thirds and multiple different video assets. It would prevent us having to use After Effects or any other video tool 

I’d to request support for using variables within prototypes for animation properties such as duration and easing. We’re working to systematize motion in our design system, and the ability to define duration and easing as variables would make motion much more consistent and reusable across files and teams. This is important because these values are foundational to how motion feels in the product, and they should be treated with the same level of structure and control as other design tokens. Right now, there’s a disconnect between how motion is defined in code and how it’s represented in Figma, since animation values can’t be managed in the same systematic way. Supporting variables for prototype animation properties would help bridge that gap, improve alignment between design and engineering, and make motion easier to maintain at scale.

Hi folks! I’ve seen the posts regarding text overrides with nested interactive components but I’m seeing a similar issue with non-interactive components as well. In the example below, I’ve set my text layers to all use the same layer name and have the same hierarchy structure but if I swap one of the nested components it resets everything. Everything works perfectly if each atom component is used individually and not nested in another component though so I’m left 🤔. Any thoughts?

I’m a graphic designer, and my first introduction to the design program was adobe, and the same can be said for many Figma users. However, the new features that Figma keeps rolling out make the design file space increasingly more and more versatile and comfortable to use than Adobe for many things. However, one major killer is the lack of print-friendly features: I’d toss Adobe out the window in a heartbeat if I was able to change the units of my ruler in Figma and was able to imposition booklets in Figma. I know that Figma Design was created primarily for product design, but it’s becoming more of a versatile tool for designers beyond just the UX/UI space, and it would be cool if Figma could take this into account.

When I select and drag a slide in the sidebar of Slides, I expect it to be duplicated, just like it would be in Keynote, Google Slides, or like any other object in Figma or other apps.Every single time I work on a presentation, I option drag to duplicate a slide, then accidentally overwrite content that I needed.

With the new update, we have a great new feature, but unfortunately, it’s not usable with our component structure. Exposing all props of a nested instance also exposes props that we don’t want in the context of the consuming component. What if we could also select which properties to expose? This would lead to a cleaner sidebar with only valid props.

When I open my Figma project files, they are always sorted by “Last modified” by default. I can manually change the sorting to Alphabetical order using the dropdown in the top-right corner, but after refreshing the page or reopening Figma, the sorting resets back to Last modified. I’ve seen other people posting the same issue. I want to push this topic forward with sharing it again. Is it possible to fix it please dear Figma? :)

In Figma Motion, it’d be cool to set a custom frame as the thumbnail/preview that appears in the main Figma Design view.Not sure determines what’s shown in the ‘Motion’ frame now but it often looks bad and doesn’t offer insight into what the animation is.

In Figma Motion, it’d be useful to have some sort of mirror function, where the first half of the animation plays in reverse after a certain point. I’m imagining a line down the middle of the timeline, which essentially mirrors what came before it, in reverse. It’s a pain tweaking both sides, and trying to figure out the inverse of bezier-curves.Of course it is possible to use the ‘ping-pong’, but this doesn’t do much when exporting.Alternatively, it would help to offer the ability to export ‘ping-pong’ mp4s/gifs etc.
