This is a great way to share updates! Understanding how the updates work like this really makes a better mental model for the features. These updates are pretty cool!
In the variables panel, please allow us to adjust the column width. Currently, it’s very inconvenient to work with long tokens in a fixed-width column. Actually, allow us to adjust the width of any modal. This is extremely important.
Still haven’t had the chance to go through the September edition and here are are, having a new 20+ minutes video with October updates. The is is like a never catching up race 😢
It's gonna be interesting to follow the development of Slides. Great potential there and nice integration. For me the document formats needs to be scalable, meaning free for me to decide. I need to adjust size ever so often to suit the concept of the content, even use a portrait style, for instance for mobile shares. Just like I do in InDesign. So the ability to set slide format would be nice. And also, the animation transitions needs to work in BOTH directions when changing slides, so when you go back to a slide the chosen transition will continuous and not just switch to a default instant switch. Is that a bug? It's been like that since day 1 for me.
I wrote about customizing underlines in text a couple of years ago. I wonder if the connectors in Figma, which are already in FigJam, will also take us a couple more years to wait for?
Please let us use percentage values for variables. When designing in Figma, particularly with typography, I like to set variables up for font sizes, font weights, font families, and apply them as variables to each text element as opposed to using text styles, this is nice when I'm then developing with Tailwind. So, like in tailwind leading-loose is equal to 200%, but with Figma I can't set up specific percentage based variables with names, like leading-token, and then scope them to line height.

These updates are pretty cool!
Really enjoying this form of release notes - much easier than written updates IMO! Thanks for sharing
The two features I'd love to see added are:
1. Percentages for width (for responsive columns)
2. Text background-color

Updates for the Underline text and Paragraph are amazing!
The only thing I wish for underline is the ability to change its opacity.
Amazing ! Love the new updates
When are the updates going live for everyone? Waiting for those new underline features ___
I've needed the dotted underline multiple times. Nice to not make it with a separate frame and stroke.
Great updates.
great initiative i think you guys should keep this going
Love this video format!!
Awesome updates 👏👏 Aside from that I'll never stop saying - Dev mode is simply too expensive
swap instance... how about nested instance swapping ?
how about % values for typography variables.
🥳 This update is so cool！！！
Cool updates 🔥
Just that some of these updates are released a little too slowly for some of us.
Great updates, Well done Figma
Great updates! It's more useful for designers.

Hello. I have the figma last version but I cant see undeline option for example. Whys that?.. I have to set something?
Loving Slides and resizable + offline prototype updates
Fantastic updates!
I've got some of the features but not the underline styling - aren't they all part of the same update?
I need animation's editor and using code for prototyping. And ability to publish my Frame as web site. Is that too much to ask?
pleeeease … when in viewport-prototype functionality!
With UI3 nested a lot of functionality behind icon buttons. Makes it really annoying to use

I have a feature request - is there a way to determine if it's already been received and prioritized or perhaps a better place than here to submit it?
That underline stuff in Typography part, that preview, seems broken?
I doubt this is possible, but can we add comments to an embedded Figma file-without going into the file itself?

Great updates!!
Is there a way we can move a page from one file to another?
Prototype offline on mobile app please!
❤Love the new features. I'm a Unique Product Designer Looking for a Gig with an international company.
The update is commendable; however, there should be a better way for exporting Variables as cross-platform tokens.
whenever he said code connect, i thought he was saying coconut haha
This could be a 5min video.
