Toggle visibility of on-canvas video playback controls

I think adding the video label and video controls to Design Mode in Figma is a big mistake.

At least in my experience, videos are used 99% of the time for prototyping, background elements, or UI loaders. This update just makes Design Mode feel cluttered. I’ve already had a client ask why there’s a video and a play icon in the design, which says a lot.

They don’t even disappear when you hide the UI, which makes it even more distracting.

I use multiple GIFs in my components, and now my entire design is covered with 'GIF' tags. This wasn't happening until yesterday, but it started appearing today. Is there any way to disable or hide these labels?

Veuillez s’il vous plait, ajouter l’option pour masquer / afficher ces players vidéos. 

This is absolutely ridiculous, How am I supposed to work on this??

It’s even show controls for videso that aren’t even on the artboard and cropped off by a wrapper? Also the devs are going to implement this as this is visible on the view mode which they use to develop from? What fresh hell is this now Figma?

This needs to be fixed ASAP.

How are we supposed to work with these controls covering our designs? It’s already disruptive in design mode, but it’s even worse when trying to take clean snapshots to share with stakeholders.

Right now, there’s no way to present designs properly without these overlays interfering. This directly impacts reviews, handoffs, and communication.

At the very least, we need an option to toggle these controls off, or have them hidden by default unless explicitly enabled.

Very bad. It's useful for identifying videos/gifs on the canvas, but it's terrible for Craft. It would be good to have a setting to hide them.

This has been hindering me quite a bit.

Worst idea ever 😂

Why? Why are you doing this? Why??

BAD

Please fix this ASAP. my entire canvas is impossible to use with the overlays everywhere. This is the most frustrated I’ve ever been using Figma in the last 8 years.
