Auto Layout Grid - Column hug to content

Hello! 🤠I was very excited to see the addition of Auto Layout Grid today! Having flexibility for both Rows and Columns at the same time is a game changer.That said, I immediately ran into not being able to set a column width to “Hug” within a table, which is a bummer. In the attached video, I want the “Audited By” column to Hug to the longest table cell content. I show both the current solution today, and what I am trying to do with Auto Layout Grid.I can manually adjust the width of the column, I guess, but as you can see, it makes it hard to ensure correct padding without a lot of careful tuning of the width. Anyone have any solutions? Will this be coming as a fast-follow feature? Thank you!

Feature Request: User Groups

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this We need to control access to various areas of Figma, and Closed teams help, but it’s painful to have to add people individually. I would love the ability to group users into user groups (aha!) and bulk add them to teams with the correct permissions. Individual users could be added with more permissions, as a local override, but for the most part, we could just add these groups. This would help immensely with change management and onboarding, as well as maintaining access guardrails where appropriate. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) Example: I want to add Designer X to our UXD user group. By default they gain edit access to all working teams. However, as part of that group, they’re only given view and library access to the Design System team. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or

Adjust share link preview for Teams

It seems that previously link previews were updated in slack to show what was being shared instead of the entire canvas. I missed that and now my links are just links, no preview. Which is better than previewing the entire canvas still.I have the same suggestion for link previews in Teams. Please stop showing the entire canvas in Teams previews and either show just what is being shared, or just don’t show anything.

Adjust preview when sharing a frame in Slack

Currently, when I share a link to a particular frame in Slack, the preview shows the whole canvas with many frames. I would prefer to see the shared frame in the preview instead.

Create new file: Write file name modal

When creating a new file in Figma, it would be helpful to display a “Write File Name” modal. This modal could include: A file name input field An option to move the file to a specific project/folder A “Skip for now” option This feature would streamline file organization, reduce clutter, and be especially helpful for beginners who might forget to name or organize their files right away.

Persistent color picker (when unpinned from right panel)

There have been many times where I’m trying to compare the color values between two or more objects. However, every time I select another object the color panel disappears so I have to click on the swatch again and try to remember the values from the previous object. Sometimes I’ll just take a screenshot of the color picker values and paste them back into Figma but that’s not fun at all. One possible solution would be to make the color picker remain visible if the user ‘unpins’ it (ie. drags it away from the right panel). Then they could select the next object to see the color values and then close the picker when they’re done.

Add Gradients as a variable type

Is there any plan to be able to create the gradient itself as a variable? For example, if I wanted some themes to have a solid background variable but others to have a gradient?

Feature Request: Export Comments from FigJam

I’d like to request a feature that would help for many workflows: export comments from a FigJam board.For retros, audits, or sharing outside of FigJam, it would save a lot of time if we could export comments as a CSV, JSON, or even a simple text list.Features: Export comments (with timestamps, author, and thread structure) to CSV or JSON. Filter by time range or by author before export. Include reference to the canvas location (e.g., coordinates or object ID) for each comment. Thanks 🤘

Add a name for each divider

Great to see the addition of dividers. Would really love the ability to add a name for each divider, because this still doesn’t solve the issue where we need to create an empty page titled “{Section Name}” to call out what the divider is actually dividing.

Autolayout should support percentage based widths

Many people have said the same thing, but I’m here to recommend supporting percentages within auto layout. I’ve seen many people asking for the same thing.Percentage width auto layout would help us be more efficient. Auto layout “Fill container” is great for sections being sized equally (50/50 or 30/30/30).When we’re designing content with sections, the sections are generally not the same width as each other to indicate importance.Myself and many other designers would love to have autolayout support something like this:The main container has the same spacing all the way around Each section takes up a specifid percentage of the container (70% and 30%) When the modal grows and shrinks, those sections maintain their width of 70% and 30%  Without spacing With spacing 800px wide     1000px wide      This is what autolayout currently supportsIf we use auto layout, each section must be a specified width or the same width as the other sections.  It makes

Use percentages for heights, widths, paddings, gutters in auto layout

This makes it easier to use components in designs for different screen sizes. And then you don’t have to calculate every time what 40% or 60% of the width is. This also makes it easier to design scalable applications that grow with the width of the screen.

Components in text

Hello, it would be nice to have the option to insert floating components inside text (like Emojis). Use case would be for signs or infos in complex dashboards. Its a hustle to do this now manually and also set kind of boundingboxes to sync different heighs of text and component. Regards

Gradient handles not showing when applying linear gradient to a single word inside a text layer

Hi Figma team,I’ve encountered an issue when trying to apply a linear gradient to a single word inside a text layer.When I highlight just one word and apply a gradient (via the fill panel), the gradient technically applies, but no gradient handles appear on the canvas. This makes it impossible to adjust the direction, angle, or position of the gradient for that specific word.Steps to reproduce: Create a text layer with multiple words. Highlight just one word. Apply a linear gradient via the Fill settings. Try to adjust the gradient. Expected behavior:Gradient handles (start and end points) should appear, just like they do when applying a gradient to an entire shape or full text layer. I should be able to control the direction of the gradient within the selected word.Actual behavior:No gradient nodes/handles appear when the gradient is applied to only a portion of the text. The gradient applies, but I have no way to control it visually.Please let me know if this is a known limitat

Feature Request: Retaining/Displaying Original File Name When Using Image as Fill

It would be incredibly helpful to either display or index the filename for an image asset added to Figma as an image “Fill”. We often build website and app comps with final assets and photography (including some stock assets). We are utilizing the Image Fill feature a lot, instead of adding images and having to mask them individually. This is super convenient, but as we go to purchase final assets or reference the original filename, it is not maintained or indexed in any way. Are we just missing something? Is there an existing plugin to manage these assets?

FigJam connectors in Figma

When creating hand-off documents I like to showcase user flows by using arrows between different UI elements. I have to use plugins to create these arrows at the moment. When playing with Figjam I notice it had a connector option - this is great. I would love it if we could also have this connector option inside Figma as it would be a HUGE timesaver for hand-off. I would like to think this would be a super easy update given that we can already edit connectors inside Figma. We just need a connector button in the toolbar like so:

Edit figma slides in mobile app (and presenter mode?)

Hi, I absolutely love Figma Slides, but there are still some caveats (like the usage of variables that is missing). So here's the next one; editing and presenting from a mobile device using the Figma app. Whether it will be a standalone app or a feature in the current one, I want it, I need it, actually.Especially the editing part, I would like to be able to do that on tablet (it's 2025 guys, even keynote and powerpoint have it). Thanks :)

Figma Make: DON'T REWRITE EVERYTHING!

TLDR; Figma should stop rewriting the entire code document every time a minute change is requested. So far, I'm incredibly impressed with Figma Make. It definitely has its limitations when it comes to deeper logic, but it has been doing a fantastic job of helping me to rapidly prototype up some of my designs, and I'm excited for where it is going. The way that entire code documents are being rewritten is one of those AI code agent growing pain items that are now becoming obsolete when working with tools like Cursor where they can be negated by creating a rule that explicitly asks to avoid the practice. I would love for there to be a similar feature available in Figma Make to allow me to prevent entire code rewrites for every little change that I request.

Paste here shortcut

I’m always copy/pasting autolayout frames and when I do this far from the right-most autolayout frame, it jumps me all across the canvas and I have to drag my frame back to where I was working. On twitter you guys mentioned paste here only works with the mouse so we know where ‘here’ is to paste. If there was a shortcut at least to just paste it in the middle of the canvas that would be nice.
