❌ Figma Ignore Changes

What If… Figma introduced a feature to ignore or hide others’ changes on a design file

September 15, 2025

Hey Figma users… have you ever found yourself in a design that was supposed to be yours, but it completely transformed due to others’ changes?
‍

I work with incredibly talented people, but I’ve been in situations where my designs took a left (or right) turn because of the changes from others in my file. This got me thinking…
‍

What If… Figma introduced a feature to ignore or hide others’ changes on a design file? This could help you see where you left off, focus on your own iterations, and avoid potential frustrations.
‍

At best, this feature would allow designers to get back on track and seamlessly view changes. At worst, it might send passive-aggressive signals that others’ ideas aren’t welcome, making egos and working relaitonships worst.
‍

While I don’t expect this to happen, there have been times I wished it existed.
