Suggest a Feature

I love being able to build animations right inside of Figma and having Engineers be able to scrub through and preview and inspect them. But I’ve already encountered a major hurdle.I’m sure there must be a way to do this - but I’ve tried every which way I could think of, with no luck...I have an animated component (a custom spinner), that uses a few shapes that animate their position, scale, and opacity. Now I need to scale instances of the component to different sizes to suit various applications within my system, and I can’t seem to do it. When I use the scale tool, the static component scales without issue, but when viewed as a prototype, the position properties are all out of whack. Do I really need to recreate the animation every time I need it at a slightly different size? That would be really inconvenient (not to mention a lot of math to figure out my new position values for every keyframe for every size.) If I can’t scale animations proportionally, I might as well keep using imp

I would like to suggest adding support for linear gradients in drop shadow effects. Currently, only solid colors are available for shadows, and I was wondering if there is any specific reason why gradient shadows are not supported yet.This feature would be very useful for creating more modern and creative UI designs directly within Figma without relying on external tools or workarounds. 

As I was looking for a way to do this natively in Figma, I came across this concept article on Medium. In the article, Андрей Насонов (Andrey Nasonov) describes adding the option to choose alignment in the image settings beyond the default centered. This would be a simple but huge improvement to image settings, especially for responsive design. Here’s his example of how that might look on the Properties Panel for images: If anyone has found any way to work around this other than individually cropping images for different container widths, pls hmu! 🙏

Currently, Figma Slides on the mobile app only allows users to view and run slides. However, when giving a presentation, many of us connect our computer to a projector to display the slides while wanting to use our phone as a companion device to view presenter notes. It would be extremely helpful if the Figma mobile app could sync in real time with the slides being presented on desktop, so that the presenter can:  See their notes directly on the mobile app Follow along with the current slide in sync with the presentation Use the phone as a discreet presenter tool, without needing a second screen or printed notes  This would bring Figma Slides closer to the functionality of other professional presentation tools and make it much more practical for real-world use. I hope the Figma team will consider adding this feature, as it would significantly improve the experience for presenters using Figma Slides in professional settings.

It’s just very bright, and I’d like to get some work done at night without killing my eyes. Please add dark mode. FigJam especially, but it’d be nice throughout. Yeah, just remember the user likes a dark mode, and make dark mode the default for everything: your website, this forum, Figma, …

It would be nice to have a way to undelete a comment. I accidentally deleted a comment when I meant to resolve it. I could not get the comment back. I could not even Undo deleting the comment.Can you please add a trashcan like feature to recover deleted comments?

I would like an option to hug content until the container it is in is too small. For instance, I am making a tab bar where the tabs are set to fill so they adjust with screen sizes. The title on each has an info icon to the right. The text has to be set to hug for the icon to stay right next to the text. However, that means if the text is long, when the tabs shrink the text extends out rather than wrapping. I would like the option to set the hugged text to wrap when it extends past the parent container without having to manually change it a each breakpoint.

I know this has been requested a handful of times but want to riase again. I would love to see the ability to add sub folders within project files. I work for a large organisation in which we have multiple teams and products. I work within the website team which has a whole bunch of delivery squads within in. We use the current project folders for each of our squads. The enables us to keep all the squads under one website team within the organisation structure. Having sub folders would be super beneficial.

It would be great if there was a way for Figma to retain the crop settings on images of the same/similar dimensions so that we don’t have to re-crop each time we swap images in Figma Slides (and any other Figma program). This is especially helpful for showcasing product mockups, where we may want to frame more tightly around a logo and avoid resetting the crop every tie we change it out. See below for examples -- when dropping in a new photo that has the same dimensions as the original photo, it keeps the “Crop” settings applied in the fill panel, however it behaves more like “Fill” as it reverts the fill dimensions back to the width or height constraint of the frame. It would be great if replacing image fills functioned more like InDesign, where it maintains the proportions of the image inside the frame rather than of the frame itself.   

Can you guys make the file management system a little more packed up. For example, A folder for personal Files, another for for templates and Favorite is already there… it will be so much helpful for some of designers who had a lots of personal practiced project… Thank you…

Organization would be immensely helpful if we could create folders for our drafts. I want to be able to organize my drafts into different categories (such as UI kits, Ideas, Wireframe kits, iOS, Android, etc…) so I can find files easily. Right now, the drafts page is a huge jumbled mess and I can’t create Team pages for everything. Maybe something as simple as being able to add ‘tags’ to each file, similar to Zeplin.

Hello! I use Figma for large projects and really, really don’t want folders within folders. Straight to 3-4 levels Can you add such functionality?

Figma is a powerful design tool that allows designers to create and collaborate on projects seamlessly. However, as the number of projects grows, organizing your workspace can become a daunting task. Finding specific projects can be difficult, especially if your workspace is cluttered and disorganized. Fortunately, Figma provides users with the ability to create folders and subfolders to keep their projects organized and easily accessible. One of the most useful features of Figma is the ‘Drafts’ section, which allows you to save incomplete or unfinished projects. This feature is especially handy when you need to work on multiple projects simultaneously, but don’t want to clutter your workspace with unfinished designs. The ‘Drafts’ section gives you the ability to save your progress, so you can come back to it later. To add a folder to your Drafts section, follow these easy steps: Click on the ‘Drafts’ section located on the left-hand side of your Figma dashboard. Click on the ‘Create

Figma make has been super useful! I like that you can click elements and there are basic things you can edit, such as font, size, spacing, etc. It would be even better to take it further by allowing basic editing right in the file, without having to go as far as creating it into a design file.For example, I wanted to delete some text elements. Or change some text, move a couple things around. These simple things are a lot faster to just do yourself, than ask AI to do little things and wait. Then you might not even like it and want to change it back! Sincerely, I’m impatient and also like getting my design hands dirty.

It would be helpful if pressing the ESC key could cancel an ongoing drag operation when a user accidentally clicks and starts dragging the wrong object.Currently, the only way to undo this action is to use Ctrl+Z, which adds an unnecessary step. Allowing ESC to immediately cancel the drag operation and restore the object's original position would make the workflow faster and more intuitive.This behavior is common in many other software applications, so users are already familiar with it. Implementing it would improve usability and help prevent accidental changes.

I use percentages in a project for the letter spacing. I can’t use variables to achieve this value. It always defaults to pixels.

ProblemWhen a layer has constraints set to Bottom (MAX), the constraint only takes effect when the parent is resized. If you manually change the layer's height in the properties panel, the top-left origin is used — the layer grows downward, and the bottom edge shifts.This creates an asymmetry with the Left/Top (MIN) constraint. A layer pinned to the left at x=0 naturally stays in place when you change its width — x=0 doesn't need to move. But a layer pinned to the bottom at y=720 (in a 1080px parent) does need y to recalculate when height changes, and currently it doesn't.Expected behaviorWhen I set a layer's constraint to Bottom, changing its height should keep the bottom edge fixed and grow upward (y = parentHeight - newHeight). The same logic should apply to Right for width changes.Current workaroundThe only way to achieve this today is to wrap the layer in an auto-layout frame with a spacer above it. This adds unnecessary complexity to the layer tree for what should be a single-pro

Would be awesome to support a Webp file when exporting images like Sketch. (without using any plug-ins)

First and foremost, thank you to the Figma team for introducing animation features it has truly been a game-changer for digital design workflows. As we integrate these tools further into our UI/UX design process, a few key areas in animation management and export fidelity require refinement: Enhanced Animation Layering Control: Improved control over animation layering logic would significantly streamline creating intricate micro-interactions and layered dynamic components. SVG Animation Export Issue (Glass Effects): When exporting icon styles or components with glassmorphism effects (such as background blurs, multi-layered fills, or stroke effects) to animated SVG format, the effect rendering breaks or disappears in the exported file. A fix ensuring background blurs and layer effects are preserved in animated SVG output is essential. Native / Enhanced Lottie Export with Effect Support: Native, full-fidelity Lottie export capabilities—supporting advanced layer effects (shadows, blur

Far too often do I find myself having to change a component or other auto-layout layer between Hug and Fill Frame, and then double click and change its child, ad nauseum. This is very common in tables, where specific cases occur in which a cell component needs to be adjusted a certain way, and I would need to change from fill to hug, for example.It would be an enormous time saver to be able to cascade the sizing option down to all children in a single click. 

I often duplicate existing mocks to work on feature updates. Deleting previous annotations one by one is extremely tedious. It would be helpful if the tool could recognize when a frame has been duplicated and then allow bulk clearing of annotations.

It would be extremely helpful to have a “Paste In Place” feature like Illustrator does!
