Bug fixes:

• The type definition for CodegenPreferences.unit now uses uppercase string values instead of lowercase string values

We're adding the following new node types and properties in beta:

• Text path node type
• Transform group node type
• Texture and Noise effect types
• Progressive blur effect type
• Pattern paint type

The node types and properties in beta can be used with Figma Design and Figma Draw.

Some exciting news for codegen plugins! Thanks to your feedback, we've extended the figma.codegen.on callback timeout from 3s to 15s.

• figma.codegen.on callback

New:

We've updated our Plugin API to support Annotation Categories, enabling developers to create organized and structured annotations with their plugins. Plugin API users can now:

• Initialize and manage Annotation Categories at the file level
• Create Categories with custom labels and colors.
• Read existing Annotation Categories defined for a file
• Assign a new Category to an Annotation for better organization
• Remove, add, and edit Categories as needed

This update builds upon our previous annotations support, giving you more control over how annotations are categorized and displayed in your plugins.

For more information, see:

• Annotation Categories
• Annotation Category Colors
• figma.annotations

We're making some changes to plugin data storage.

New:

• The total client storage limit is now 5 MB, up from 1 MB previously
• setSharedPluginData and setSharedPluginData have new per-entry 100 kB limits

Bug fixes:

• Fix the return type for node.getRangeBoundVariable().

We've added a timeout to the figma.codegen.on callback. Now, if code generation takes longer than 3 seconds, it will automatically stop and an error message will be displayed in the codegen panel.

• figma.codegen.on callback

To help developers enhance decks and presentations, Figma Slides now supports plugins! You can use the new API features to effectively enable users to create beautiful, functional slide decks.

New:

• Figma's Plugin API typings now support Figma Slides.
• Figma Slides has four new node types: SLIDE, SLIDE_ROW, SLIDE_GRID, and INTERACTIVE_SLIDE_ELEMENT.
• figma.editorType can now return slides when a plugin is running in Figma Slides.
• figma.viewport.slidesMode can be used to toggle between grid view or single-slide view.
• figma.currentPage.focusedSlide identifies the slide currently focused on in the interface.
• figma.getSlideGrid() returns the slide grid, a 2D representation of slides within a deck.
• figma.setSlideGrid() is used to reorder slides in the grid.
• getSlideTransition() gets the current transition for a given SLIDE node.
• setSlideTransition() is used to set the transition for a given SLIDE node.

For more information, see the Working in Slides guide.

Figma now supports proportional resizing via the Lock aspect ratio option. This replaces the legacy constrainProportions option. constrainProportions maintains backwards compatibility by setting the new targetAspectRatio field, but we encourage you to use the new property.

Previously, createPage could incorrectly create more pages than supported by Figma's Starter plan. This issue has been fixed.

New:

Figma now supports customizing underlines. The following changes were made to support getting and setting new underline features:

• textDecorationStyle, textDecorationOffset, textDecorationThickness, textDecorationColor, and textDecorationSkipInk are now supported on TextNode
• Added support for textDecorationStyle, textDecorationOffset, textDecorationThickness, textDecorationColor, and textDecorationSkipInk in getStyledTextSegments()
• Added ranged getters getRangeTextDecorationStyle(), getRangeTextDecorationOffset(), getRangeTextDecorationThickness(), getRangeTextDecorationColor(), and getRangeTextDecorationSkipInk().
• Added ranged setters setRangeTextDecorationStyle(), setRangeTextDecorationOffset(), setRangeTextDecorationThickness(), setRangeTextDecorationColor(), and setRangeTextDecorationSkipInk().
