Improvements to agent-generated vector illustrations and icons

The Figma agent now generates editable, style-consistent vector illustrations and icons.

Your prototype connections, now context for code layers

When you create a code layer from design frames, the agent now reads the prototype connections and interactions between them.

Export shaders at higher resolutions and bring them into code layers

Shaders now render and export at higher resolutions and can be exported into code layers.

View and restore previous versions of your generative plugins and shaders

Figma now automatically creates a new version when editing generative plugins and shaders, allowing users to revisit and restore previous versions of their tools.

Access video and image models from Figma Weave via the Figma MCP

Figma Weave video and image models are now accessible through the Figma MCP for use in AI agents.

iPhone Duo and iPhone 18 frame presets now available wherever you design and prototype

Here’s everything from Config India 2026

Today, we launched new ways to build and collaborate with code, capture and share context, and build with real data and content.

Gemini 4 Argon is rolling out in Figma Make

Connect multiple GitHub organizations to Figma

You can now connect multiple GitHub organizations to a single Figma plan.

Smoother design collaboration and navigation on mobile

New improvements to Figma’s mobile app for smoother collaboration and navigation.

Create on-brand content with your Figma designs in Weave workflows

Starting today, you can connect the designs you’ve already created in Figma Design canvas directly to your Figma Weave workflows.

Control opacity at scale

Opacity can be updated at scale in the variables modal and applied on top of any color without detaching.

Updates to generative plugins and shaders

At Config, we launched the ability build your own custom generative plugins and shaders by prompting the Figma agent. Now, you can do more with those generative plugins and shaders with animations and interactions, publishing capabilities, and access to the code.

Open the agent chat panel in a new window

You can now open the agent chat panel into a new window on the Figma desktop app for both macOS and Windows. It stays visible when you work with other tools or switch tabs.

Responsive spacing across design and CSS

Auto layout's auto spacing now has two new options, “Around” and “Evenly”, alongside the existing default auto spacing behavior now called “Between”.

Recommend resources you want users to discover and use

Admins can now choose which resources (skills, templates, libraries, and Make kits) are recommended to your organization or workspace.

Get responsive text across screens with text wrap

Text wrap makes your text responsive with two new options: Balance and Pretty. Set either on a text layer, a text style, or an individual paragraph in text settings.

Try skills from the Community and make your own with the Figma agent

Figma MCP: Run Weave tools, right from your favorite agent

Starting today, you can run your Figma Weave tools from Codex, Claude, or Cursor using the Figma MCP server.

Get organized with nested folders

As work grows to more people and platforms, files inevitably get harder to find. We've introduced folders, so your team can add structure to files that flexes as project work evolves.

New - The editing panel in Figma Make

The new properties panel brings a more direct way to build in Figma Make. Click any element to adjust its properties by hand, or annotate a spot on the screen and let the agent make the change.

Design closer to CSS with the updated auto layout option

Auto layout now works more like CSS, so what you design lines up more closely with what actually gets built.

Bring code-backed screens onto the canvas with variables attached

Bring coded or legacy screens back into Figma and spend your time refining the work, not rebuilding it.

GPT-5.6 is now in Figma Make

To get started, open the model picker in the Figma Make chatbox and choose GPT-5.6. The model is available on all plans.

Run multiple AI image edits and keep designing while they load

No more waiting for one edit to finish before starting the next. You can now generate multiple AI image edits at the same time via the tool bar and keep designing while they load.

Here’s everything from Config 2026
