LAUNCHED: Horizontal scroll the layers panel

Screw the AI bs, fix this first!!! It’s ridiculous that it’s been 3.5 years, the users have been adamantly telling you what they want, and you guys still haven’t fixed this yet? Come on!

New UI and still no horizontal scroll 😃 amazing, who does UX in Figma team 🤯

You need the team of 30 UX experts and 50 software developers to solve horizontal scroll problem, which is possible to show with one CSS prop - overflow: auto; But one day AI will replace people and we will not need horizontal scroll, so w8 🙂

100%! Well, it’s obvious they prioritize making $$ before their users feedback/request. Their new AI future (and Figma Slides) will incur additional charges. But adding a horizontal scroll doesn’t make them any money.

I generally avoid complaining online, but I genuinely don’t understand why horizontal scrolling hasn’t been added. With the new UI3, the issue has become even more problematic, as clearly shown in the screenshots by @pavel6.

Additionally, 622 votes seem like a significant number of people to demonstrate the need for the ability to see all layers, not to mention hide a layer.

I hope this issue gets addressed soon. If you need a hint, I don’t think anyone expects anything more elaborate than horizontal scrolling, which seems like it would require minimal coding.

That’s because Figma completely lost touch with their userbase a few years ago

It happens at some point for each and every startup, but in the case of Figma it was really early on

Hey All, thank you for your continued feedback!

Using your votes and recent feedback since the rollout of UI3, we were able to advocate for this feature request on your behalf, and we did it! This is officially on the UI3 team’s roadmap - it’s happening! 🙌

Thanks again for your patience and understanding, and keep an eye out on our future releases!

I’ll believe it when I see it- not holding my breath…

Please oh God add this feature! We’re using Auto Layout and complex components in a shared library and can’t view and edit layers properly.

@dvaliao Denise please help us! We have a completely new UI3 but don’t solve a simple scroll issue! I work with tables and grids here and simply need to GUESS which layer I’m clicking. It’s been almost 4 years for a simple request, it’s not possible that no one inside Figma can solve this in a quick afternoon.
