We have a typography section when we want to scope variables. What about a Layout Grid section in Scoping mode? Here’s a simple Photo for maybe a better understanding: Wouldn’t it make the work a little bit easier/more comfortable/better? Even if it is just a 1% improvement.

The Interaction details modal is not very tall, making that extra scroll mandatory to set up custom bezier EACH time we create a Smart Animate animation which is probably 100000x a day . It would be a time-saver to just make that modal higher. We use very large screen in our office and this window could be at least 3 times higher and still have space under it 😅.

In Figma, all the boards, etc can only be sorted by when I last viewed. That’s not very useful (I know what I’ve viewed) What would be much more useful would be to view by last edited so I can view what is the most recently changed thing.

Allow users to toggle a setting for components to allow freely adding/rearranging nested contents instead of relying on the ‘slot component’ workaround or nesting a dozen possible UI elements with boolean toggle ‘Hide/Show’ variants. This would be especially helpful for container/sheet/section components that really only need to define radius/border/spacing/padding.

When exporting an SVG, a bug occurs: extra lines are added that don’t even exist in hidden layers.

I hate that when I’m switching between pages in a file, I am always seeing NOTHING. Could you take me to the top most artboard, layer, or a view where most of the artboards/content is so that I could know where to zoom in?

It’s frustrating how easily instances lose connection to their components, but more frustrating still is having to reset all, which happens often, because then you have to re-enter or paste in all of the text. Please add “Reset all but text” such that it recognizes your overridden text for what it is: an override.

My team and I have been working in Figma Slides and trying to see if we can convince our company to move off of PPT. To do that, I need this tool to be easier to use than PPT for non tech/design folks (sales and marketing teammates who are not familiar with Figma). That being said, we have a couple points of frustration: There might be a way to do this, but I can’t find it (and we’ve used Figma for years and years), but it’s driving me CRAZY that I can’t use variables or styles from our other libraries in Slides. It would save us so much time. Why do Slides create so many ‘libraries’/‘themes’ in a single file? How do we get rid of them? It happens when we paste things from another file (we often make assets in Figma files before pasting them into slides). This is also driving me crazy. I need ONE theme in these files. And I would like that theme to match the theme we’ve already created in Figma with our variables. Overall I don’t understand why theming a Slides file is so dang hard. I

It’s so limited and we have to clear it everytime. Increasing the limit or making it unlimited and wrap the text is a great idea.

TL;DR I want to select a variant by what it looks like, without needing to (mentally) translate it into words. Let me cycle through variants rapidly with a keyboard shortcut. Example: (exact key combinations flexible) Cycle to next variant: CMD + Ctrl + > Cycle to previous variant: CMD + Ctrl + < Press and hold either down to rapidly cycle through all Process steps (what I should be able to do): Select a component variant I’ve placed in a design frame. Use a keyboard shortcut to quickly cycle to the next variant. If I overshoot (cycle past it), use the related keyboard shortcut to cycle back one variant. (shortcut with “<” instead of “>”, for example) Benefits: My eyes stay in one place, instead of moving back and forth between the icon and the variant properties in the right panel. The eye-travel requires re-centering each time, to triangulate the correct drop-down. I don’t have to navigate several drop-downs, each with multiple options. A huge reduction in

Nested auto-layouts have a broken hierarchy. You may think that settings or properties applied to the outermost autolayout will be inherited down the line, but they are not. Take for example strokes or corner radius. Let’s say that you have a big auto-layout box (lets call it parent) with another 3 auto-layout boxes in horizontal direction nested inside of it (lets call them children). If I want to apply corner radius to the edges of the parent box and I do so in it’s settings it does nothing. The only way to do it now is to apply corner radiuses to the upper left and down left corners of the left child box and the upper right and down right corners of the right child box SEPARATELY. Imo this is insane. Same applies for applying strokes and many more settings and properties. Figma pleaaaase fix this. On the other hand if this is done by design please explain why. Thank you in advance!

J’aimerais avoir la possibilité de mettre le local variables panel dans mon deuxième écran pour ne pas a avoir l’ouvrir à chaque ajout de variable

想要搜索文件名，现在找文件真的好麻烦！！！！！

I add an icon library to my file. When swapping instances, I would like a property to have the icons form a specific category within the library file suggested. I used the “select all instances” in the selection menu, but when adding more icons to the category, the new ones were not included when the library were updated - as it was a checkbox, I assumed it would keep selecting all in the category when new icons were added.

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?

I have been in need of this feature for months now. What I have to do to check a variable value forever is to make a component with 4 states, that checks if it changed, if it did do smth, if it didnt go to state 2. On state 2 wait 10ms then go back to state 1. Adding a Forever argument to components would be realy appreciated by my whole team

I would like the ability to select an element and get the version history for just that element. Case: Who put this here? Sometimes I’ll find a text comment or otherwise something has changed in my designs, but I’m not sure who did the change. It would be nice to be able to see exactly who did what to individual elements.

Hi, I’ve been working with different texts. It’s good that all text fields can be connected to variables. However for each text I need to go to all the text-related fields and choose the proper variables. Is it possible somehow to group and save a bunch of text-related variables as a single ‘style’ so I can load the whole group for a paragraph? It’s something similar to the current text Styles, but all the properties to be connected to variables. Thank you.

Hi, It would be very helpful if you implement percentage in all Figma fields where HTML allows it (width, height, text, margin, padding, corner, etc.). Thank you.

Hi, It would be very useful if you allow to have variables of different types in one group. For example I have a group Primitives and another Component Functioning, where I would like to keep all variables related to different component. I have a component Cake Box where I need to keep a boolean, several number and several string variables. Thank you!

Could you please make it possible the code shown in Dev Mode to be available for editing? There are some HTML features available in HTML, which are not available in Figma. I don’t like that Figma containers are set to ‘flex’. The normal HTML flow goes with default block containers. I’m both a designer and a front-ender. I have a ready HTML/CSS/React site functioning and I have decided to remake it in Figma. Guess what, I can’t! Figma is very limited. I can’t use percentage, I can’t use z-index, I can’t use grid…

Variables would be so much easier to control if similar to styles, I could select a number of frames and see which variables were referenced in the right panel

When creating a new design file, the onboarding starts and ends with the same bit of information - Highlighting UI kits. Is this intentional?

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’s handy to have recent items in the quick actions bar but every tab has its own history of recent actions which forces to type the same actions again and again. Also it would be great to not reset the history after closing/reloading a tab.
