i know this has been posted before, but Figma really needs to address this issue. pasting an email address should not just format the existing text as a link with the new text as a destination. when creating prototypes with lots of dummy accounts, or even with real data, copying and pasting lots of emails becomes the hardest part of my day, and there are no key shortcuts either. i have to copy, then right click, paste to replace. or “copy as text.” it’s obnoxious, and frankly i don’t think anyone using Figma has ever needed a functional email link for a prototype, it’s not like we’re creating live products where someone might actually click the email link to send an email.


please fix this Figma, it’s infuriating and breaks the flow of creating prototypes. When basically every prototype i create for work requires a list of users and their contact information, it becomes a daily problem which destroys efficiency. at the very least, allow us to paste them without formatting using cmd+shift+V or something.

Hi! Here is another bug. 🪲 When exported to PDF, links like this


ru.wikipedia.org

Looks like it is being double-encoded? Anyway, this is a very simple-to-fix bug, yet incredibly annoying.


Please, fix it as soon as possible! 🙏

Hi, is there any fix or setting to make email formatting not clickable? Or do I still have to do it manually in all my screens?

it literally takes the developers 1 hour to enable a settings options to turn off hyperlinks, it is not complicated !!! it has been more than 1 year at this point its a joke…

@Ghouila_Mohamed_Ali when you paste an email address, does it still become clickable?

If it does, do you mind sharing a video of it?

There should be an option to use “Rich Text” or “Plain Text” in Figma (or a setting called “Use Rich Text” that you could leave on by default if you insist), so those of us that are having this issue can switch to plain text and not have text copied from the Internet paste with links inadvertently embedded in it.


I know Paste And Match Style is a workaround but I don’t always remember to paste that way. I should be able to set “Command + V” to work as expected.

100% agree

Please, fix it as soon as possible! I’m going insane! 🙏

You can paste text through Ctrl+Shift+V, text will be pasted without links

⚠️ Problem ⚠️ : Recently, I worked on the tasks of embedding different multiple links. The text is the same and duplicated into as much as the links. But I have to turn off underline after embedding link every single time.

✅ Solution ✅ : It would be good if there is a preference to disable auto underlining text when embedding link.

Or you can simply remove the format without having to directly paste the url. Select the text, insert the url, and remove the built-in format worked just fine with me.

The way to do this is the same as when we do it on Gdocs or MS Word, except that in Figma, the feature icon to reach the same result is not explicitly visible.
