I would love the ability to set a background color in the layer list. I’d like to be able to set this on an individual layer or group of layers.
I often have trouble finding important groups of layers. I’ve resorted to using emojis which helps. But imagine that we could color the background color of the label.
I’d also like to edit the label name so that in my document “Blue” would represent to my developers that it’s grids.
Bumping this. Would love to be able to color layers much like you can in After Effects. As a Motion Designer who spends most of my time in Figma now I can say that there is a lot of low hanging fruit that Figma should tackle. Layer colors and docking/ editing the workspace would be huge!
Hi,
I have hundreds of levels and naming frames to get it quickly just partially resolve the problem.
It might be great to adopt colour options for each level and frame like Adobe benefited years ago from.
Still in order to get a cleaner and more friendly UI, it might be great to get more contrast between project page and levels section. Atm at first look they are pretty similar and separated just by a tiny grey line. Maybe, it might be help a bolder separator or even a slightly darker background for page section?
Well… I thought I would post a topic about it, but apparently a lot of other designers had the same idea. Great! Now, how about adding this nice feature to Figma, Figma?
Here is my take on it, inspired by Photoshop, but I also like the colors of OP @Court_Kizer, who posted about this back in Jan 2021. Wow!
Here is hoping Figma chooses this and many more functional updates, instead of working on tweaking the defunct UI3. But that is another story.
At least a basic option to add some colors to the layers panel would be so useful. It’s incredibly hard to read indeed…it has so many awesome functionalities but missing one of the mos basic ones.
Bumping this. Still waiting for this feature, or a plugin that would mimic this concept.
Would also love this feature!
Maybe finally?
This should be AI feature, naming, grouping and colouring layers.
Sounds like a very tedious work to do manually.

I need to color some layers to highlight them in a bunch of others so it has no connection to naming or grouping. I need to color to highlight. It's very convenient if you have it. Even if it is rarely used.
Four years since this initial feature request, 13,764 views on the topic… and still nothing.
It’s completely unbelievable that such a basic and essential feature hasn’t been implemented yet in a tool that prides itself on being at the forefront of creation.
Fellow creators, if you see this message, please take a moment to leave a reaction or a comment on this discussion. Together, maybe we can gain the visibility needed so that we can finally work with an organization worthy of this beautiful craft.
