Release Notes

Move between files in the Figma desktop app without the usual interruptions that slow you down. Links open where you already are, recent work is a search away, and what's next loads before you get there.

• Search open and recently closed tabs by name from the tab overflow menu
• Open Figma links directly in the desktop app, skipping the browser routing step (macOS)
• Files and prototypes preload in the background so they're ready when you arrive

Make introduces new features for more control and context as you build:

• Voice-to-text - Dictate prompts directly in Make chat with cleaned text ready for review before submitting. Learn more about voice-to-text.
• Question cards - Choose between structured options in chat before Make moves forward, each with a short description of the tradeoff. Learn how to use question cards.
• Version history - Track changes across every version of your build and revert to any prior state instantly. Learn how to use version history.
• Clear context - Reset your session in one click from Make settings, clearing accumulated context without losing your file or your work. Learn how to clear context.
• New connector - Bring in additional context from Google Drive, Microsoft Office, Zoom, and 9,000+ other apps with our new Zapier connector.

It’s now easier to add references when using Make Image and Edit Image in Figma. Previously reference images could only be uploaded, but now you can:

• Click the new "Add reference" button on almost any node on the canvas (images, vectors, frames, components)
• Copy/paste into the prompt box (from the canvas or outside Figma)
• Drag and drop files into the prompt box

Available in all Figma products where you can make or edit images with AI: Figma Design, Draw, Buzz, Slides, and FigJam.

Draw now surfaces the tools designers reach for most without leaving the mode they're already working in. New expressive controls expand what's possible natively, alongside the core features that were always there but harder to find.

Features that were always there are now easier to find and use.

• Apply auto layout directly in Draw, without switching to Design mode
• See component, instance, and text layer types labeled inline in the layers panel
• Use the new dedicated text on a path tool to add text to an existing path, or drag on an empty canvas to create text on a circle
• Right-click to separate text and vector into independent layers

New brush and texture controls bring more precision and creative range to Draw.

• Cmd-click or ctrl-click any stroke to sample its color, weight, and brush or dynamic style
• Set a gradient color and blend mode from the Draw toolbelt before starting a stroke
• Control X and Y noise and texture independently to create directional effects

Table formatting, diagramming, canvas navigation, and template publishing in FigJam just got a bit better with the following updates:

• Cell merging: Merge adjacent cells while preserving content from the upper-left cell.
• Text color in tables: Apply distinct text colors within table cells or shapes.
• Improved arrows: Wider routing margins, cleaner arrowheads, and clearer dashed endpoints.
• Drag-to-flip shapes: Drag any resize handle across a shape to flip it. Content stays readable.
• Recenter button: Quickly find your way back to your work on large canvases.
• Default zoom decrease: Start slightly more zoomed out for better board visibility.
• Template publishing on Professional plans: Publish up to 5 templates per team.

With new MCP tool updates and FigJam skills, you can now generate architecture diagrams, ERDs, and more in FigJam directly from your coding agent — including into files you're already working in.

• Generate diagrams: Use the updated generate_diagram tool (remote server only) to create architecture diagrams and ERDs, with new connector types built for database relationships. Or paste Mermaid.js code directly onto the canvas to render it as a diagram.
• Use new skills: Read and write directly to a FigJam board with the figma-use-figjam foundational skill. Workflow skills like generate-project-plan turn docs, codebases, and conversations into visual boards.
• Get context: Use get_figjam to summarize an existing FigJam board, surface insights, or draft next steps.

Available in MCP-supported clients. Current pricing and rate limits apply.
