Keep Comments pinned to design elements (including nested)

Unfortunately, pinning comments does not work in practice when working with autolayout containers.
As cool as this auto-layout feature is to easily move up and down blocks within this container without having to manually move them, but unfortunately you lose the affiliation of all comments because they stick to the container and not to the blocks inside.

Bumping this isssue. As awesome as auto-layout feature is to keep everything tidy and organized, is this frustrating.

Kind of frustrating that stuff like this needs to be upvoted for reaction… this is essential. try to handle +1.000 comments this way.

Still an issue. I’m currently collaborating on a 58 page report (that will be exported as a PDF), and each page is a Frame. If I reorder those frames or add new frames the comments don’t stay attached. It’s a complete mess.

ISSUE: A big issue at pretty much all of the jobs I’ve had that rely on the comment functionality in Figma is that comments are only able to be pinned to the top frame and not any nested frames within it. In order to organize our flows within each page we use frames to nest our flows in. So with Figma’s current functionality of only allowing a comment to be pinned to the top most frame none of the comments move with their respective frame.

REQUEST Figma, please build functionality that allows comments to be pinned to any frame regardless if it is nested within another frame or not.

When cutting a frame and pasting into a different page in the same file, comments don’t follow/attach. Is there something I’m doing wrong for it not to “follow”?

Can not find it, can you please share the link of the plugin? Tnx

Just wanted to share with you all that I can add comments for new Frames that I make, but it does not work for the frames I previously made, from let’s say a month ago…

🤷‍♀️

Hi Figma,

I make a lot of prototypes with scrolling behavior. When sharing the prototypes with stakeholders communication is important. It’s therefore annoying that comments don’t stick to elements.
Comments that apply to elements outside of the initial viewing area end up in a pile at the top of the frame instead of being pinned to the intended area.

Would love a solution to this!

Comments carry over when you move a frame from one page to another using the Move to page option from the right-click menu. But I agree that comment shouldn’t disappear when a frame is cut and pasted between pages.
