Support for zoom in presentation view

The presentation view needs to support zoom. Currently it’s impossible to view large frames in presentation view as we’re limited to 3 options:

  1. 100% display at full size
  2. Fit scale down to fit
  3. Scale down or up to fill

#1 displays the content too big, and #2 and #3 display the content too small.

So need this feature - we’re presenting to 30-40 people at a time via zoom all on different screens, and while we can show our overall design, we also have small details like copy or just details that need to be zoomed in on request. PLEEEEASE Add this feature!

Pretty embarrassing on Figmas end that this hasnt been done yet honestly. Its been almost 4 years since this thread started. It should not be this difficult to add.

Was really surprised to find out this feature doesn’t exist! We present designs with copy, so sometimes we need to zoom in to read what’s on screen.

Yeah I’m trying to present a giant map that I can scroll in and out of and pan around, but I can’t figure it out.

Still really need this. This is the top issue that stops us from converting our workflow completely over to Figma Slides and it’s incredibly frustrating that we’re still unable to do this. Zoom+Pan. Please.

I found a workaround that still lets me use the zoom feature from “Actual Size.”

All I did was set my frame size to 1600 x 985 (I’m working on a MacBook Pro M1).

If that size doesn’t work for you, here’s how I figured it out. I created a frame, added a rectangular red stroke around its edges, then entered presentation mode and adjusted the dimensions until the red stroke landed exactly where I wanted it.
