I want to do copy QA in Figjam by using the table component and pasting images into it, underlining certain sections and in the column next to the column with the image indicating the new copy

Hello, I found out that if i create an interactive component (ex: Button), and place it inside a a main component (obsiously as an instance), the interactions are no longer working. But if you create an instance of the parent component, then it all works as expected.

I spend a lot of time undoing the automatic auto layout adjustments that Figma applies in order to maintain the existing layout structure. This is frustrating because I understand how all the resizing parameters work, and I only change the ones I want to change. But in an attempt to help me and retain the current layout, the UI changes parameters that were previously the way I wanted them. So while auto layout still saves me time, it also wastes my time by putting me in a position where I have to go through, layer by layer, undoing the auto-adjustments. (Usually changing a layer’s width or height from “fixed” back to “fill” or “hug”.) I understand some users may actually like this, and it’s hard to please everyone. I would be more than grateful for an option that allows me to disable this automatic behavior.

To enhance flexibility and optimize workspace organization, it would be beneficial to allow users to move the windows for variables, prototypes, and plugins outside Figma’s main interface, positioning them freely on the desktop. This feature would help users better arrange their workflow, especially for those using multi-monitor setups or needing a cleaner and more focused workspace. Imagine being able to place the prototype window on a secondary monitor while working on the main canvas, or keeping a plugin window open without it interfering with your design. Additionally, these windows could remember their position, reopening in the same spot during the next session to ensure a seamless user experience.

Editing comments quicker with up arrow to go back to the comment box once it’s been sent

In this case I have the same component duplicated four times to have five placed instances total. When selecting one of the inside pieces, Figma highlights those same pieces in other parent instances. But there’s no way to select those things Figma’s highlighting without intermediate steps like searching by name. Clicking them all one by one in this example isn’t too bad, but doing it with some nested component across a dozen prototype screens is pretty bad. It’d be really cool if I could hit some keyboard shortcut or a quick action to go with the existing “select all ” options. (Select all with same instance doesn’t work, it selects all the parent components instead of the highlighted pieces) With it already being highlighted, it feels so close yet so far.

Hello,I’ve been and building with Figma Make which I find very impressive.By iterating, a lot of files has been created and many are not in used which leads to pollution and model confusionCan you build an UI in the interface or give possibility to the AI to delete files? 

STOP MOVING THE TOOLS AROUND THE CANVAS, CHANGING THEIR ON-LOAD DEFAULT VIEWS, AND GIVE COMMUNITY AN ACTUAL PLACE TO LIVE OTHER THAN EVERY SINGLE PLACE YOU’VE TRIED. HOLY CRAP HOW ARE YOU GUYS GOING IPO? YOU CANT EVEN MAKE A SINGLE DECISION AND STICK WITH IT FEATURE REQUEST: CONSISTENCY AND RELIABILITY. I DONT USE POWER TOOLS THAT ARENT RELIABLE, SO WHY SHOULD I USE A PIECE OF SOFTWARE THAT DOESNT RELIABLY HAVE THE FUNCTIONS I NEED IN ONE SPOT

Currently what we make in “Figma Make” is not directly editable in figma design tool. To change anything we need to command which makes the design worsen often. So we designers need to have the power to copy/move/cut from “Figma Make” design and paste it in the figma design tool , to iterate and tweak faster.

We deals with editing of photoshoot, website,and app design

Recently, I needed to create some typography based graphics in my website project, I did not find any option to align the text to pen paths or shapes. It would be a must feature in Figma as the usecase prevails for many designers out here and in many projects. Yes, there are some extensions available but they are limited in functionality, do not provide necessary mechanisms. Please upvote this of you have came across to the same need.

Config 2025 release broke my designs with Grid!And it could be an upgrade, if:Grid could HUG CONTENTS (row, column, grid itself) Rows, columns and cells could be resized (fixed value, %, colspan/rowspan, flex-grow value) Switch between flex wrap (items jumping to next row) and grid

The versioning in Figma Make is available, but since the AI cannot maintain consistency if there is a way to list and name these versions, it will be easier to fix the mistakes and issues.

Add the ability to select which properties to publish of a component and of a nested component. One use case for this is State in many components such as Button. State has Default, Hover, and Pressed. These states don’t need to be published, they are purely used for prototypes. I don’t want to clutter the properties list for consuming designers. Disabled and Error are created as Variants with “true” and “false” values. There’s no need to publish State property. Original idea here requested by XavierV

As a designer using a design system and searching or swapping a component instancr, often a term you search pulls up other components not in line with what you want because of a similarity in name. The most common culprit are icons.It would be great to do a quick negative filter like in VSCode with find and replace when looking for components to swap or insert to negate a group of components. This could also be a quick hack to cut out other active design systems from the keyboard.

Would be nice to limit this permission to developers only, while still allowing other roles to view files. It is about time Figma improves the role and permissions management. We need dev roles or more granular permission settings.

It’s currently too easy for contributors to make small changes that go unnoticed by maintainers. Especially in large files, there’s no way to track exactly what changed. Enforcing that the main file cannot be edited unless you branch will allow maintainers to view exactly what has changed and require reviews of contributions.

I wish there was a right click option if Figma that lets you select any item on your canvas and lock it to sticky, so the reference can follow you as you pan around, just a simple “make sticky” and you can still move it around if you need to adjust where it is “sticky” from. aaagh.

Currently trying to pan with spacebar is not working in many scenarios because other areas of the app are “in focus”. This is super annoying because you always have to click inside the canvas to get focus to be able to pan again. However, this selects or deselects elements which is almost never wanted.Even when in prototype mode and an interaction is selected, paning doesn’t work, even though the focus is in the canvas area.Also super annoying, when clicking on a comment, the focus goes directly into the reply input. So pressing spacebar to pan results in a comment consisting of a lot of spaces.This is super annoying and costs a lot of time accumulated during the whole day. Please make spacebar pan work always! No matter where you focus is, as long as the mouse is in the canvas area. Or at least include a setting to control the behaviour.Thanks!

I’m in a company with a large sales team, with multiple client meetings weekly. So we have a lot of repetitive slide decks get duplicated and modified, with new content and infographics tweaked on a weekly basis. Templates for STYLING is amazing, as the only designer, I LONG for the days I don’t have to bully clumsily placed pixels, poorly cropped photography and off-brand typography in Keynote on a near-daily basis in order to keep our branding on point. However, despite Figma having by far the strongest offering regarding DESIGN templates (yay), a way to retrieve the CONTENT of slides, making CONTENT changes that could be published to ALL related slides is entirely lacking. If INDIVIDUAL SLIDES could be TAGGED, or otherwise CATEGORISED, it would make searching for, and maintaining relevancy of content much more effective. Currently as a sales team member, if we switched to Figma, I’d still have the problem of remembering not only which deck a certain slide exists in, not only checkin

 Hi 👋,I am developing a plugin that needs to analyze text blocks and split them exactly “line by line” as they appear visually in the Figma editor. The goal is to process each displayed line, including those that result from automatic wrapping (not just explicit line breaks in the text).Currently, the Plugin API only allows splitting text on explicit newline characters (\n), but there is no way to obtain the actual visual line breakdown as rendered by Figma’s text engine (i.e., where lines wrap automatically due to width, font, size, etc.).Why this matters: Many workflows (translation, accessibility, animation, content synchronization, etc.) require manipulating text “as seen” line by line. Workarounds (simulating rendering, OCR, etc.) are complex, unreliable, and do not always match Figma’s own rendering. Only Figma’s engine knows the true visual line breaks, since they depend on many internal parameters. Feature request:Would it be possible to add a method to the Plugin API that

Crossplatform programs

Page dividers or spacing? 🤔 Cause this hack to use a page to fake it is in 99% of all Figma files I’m in. Does anyone else experience this?

It seems like the new accessibility checker for color does not work when using a color variable. It would be great to not have to break the variable to use that feature. 

I work at a large company and often help some of our view only and collab seats navigate Figma files. But I often am not sure exactly what things they have access to. Is there a way I can “toggle” into view only mode like I can into dev mode to see what they are seeing so I can help better inform them?
