Hello Figma Team,
Our team is currently developing multiple applications and working on multiple design projects within Figma. Because of this, we have a diverse group of collaborators (including stakeholders and non-designers) who need quick access to essential files but can become overwhelmed by the “Recents” view. I’d like to propose the following enhancements:
-
Show Starred Projects in Their Own Rows (in Home View)
- Within each block, show up to four of the most recently updated files for that project.
- This makes it easier for stakeholders and non-designers to locate critical projects at a glance, without scrolling through everything else.
-
Hide or Relocate the Large Top Buttons
- The “New Design File,” “New FigJam Board,” etc. buttons at the top are frequently clicked by accident, often leading to unwanted drafts.
- They also slow down loading times and occupy valuable screen space.
- Moving them to a dropdown menu or a smaller icon bar could streamline the interface and reduce unintentional clicks.
Thank you for considering these suggestions to improve the “Recents” page for various types of users. If you have any questions or need more details, feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Aleksandra
