Option to disable "Image resized" when large images are brought in

I regularly need to work with screenshots of webpages, which can be a couple thousand pixels tall. I need these images to be actual size. Can’t do this in Figma cause it automatically scales large images down.

I know there’s a plugin but this seems like a silly thing to rely on a plugin for, there should be an option native to Figma that lets us shut this function off.

Or give us an option to scale the image back up to the original dimensions? (even if the quality’s going to get wrecked)

This has been such a huge thorn in my side!

Please & thank you!

Please tell me theres a way to turn this “Image Resized - Lear more” crazyness off somewhere. I’m not able to import long screenshots without them being “downsized” to an awful size.

Use the Insert Big Image plugin:

Why do we even have to use a plugin for this. You don’t know the headache of a conversation we’ve had on my team around “plugin governance”. I like a lot about figma, but having to use a plugin to bring in a screenshot accurately is not meeting my expectations as a user of this product.

Exactly, imagine having to use 20+ plugins to have a slightly extended feature set.
Fingers crossed that no plugins break in future time so the workflows stay intact.

Reminds me of the dependencies developers have to live with.

@anon21722796 This is still a problem. Any plans of improving the experience by having image import accurate to their size? I don’t really want the tool to adjust sizing or image quality for me–that’s not a service to me, or a “feature”… it’s a headache.

Wow just ran into this problem trying to get images working for a prototype. What a pain to have to re-insert every single image using a plugin. PLEASE fix this!
