Managing Comments and Feedback in Figma

Key Concepts

1. Adding Comments

Adding comments in Figma allows team members to provide feedback directly on the design. To add a comment, select the area of the design you want to comment on, click the comment icon, and type your feedback.

Example: If you notice a typo in a social media post design, you can add a comment directly on the text box, highlighting the error for the designer to fix.

2. Responding to Comments

Responding to comments is crucial for effective communication. Designers can reply to comments to acknowledge feedback, ask for clarification, or provide updates. To respond, click on the comment and type your reply.

Example: After receiving a comment about the color contrast, the designer can reply, "Thanks for the feedback! I'll adjust the colors to improve readability."

3. Resolving Comments

Resolving comments helps keep the design process organized and indicates that feedback has been addressed. Once a comment has been resolved, it is marked as completed and can be reopened if necessary. To resolve a comment, click the "Resolve" button next to the comment.

Example: After fixing the typo mentioned in a comment, the designer can resolve the comment, indicating that the issue has been addressed.

4. Filtering Comments

Filtering comments allows you to focus on specific types of feedback. You can filter comments by unresolved, resolved, or comments made by a specific team member. This helps in managing large amounts of feedback efficiently. To filter comments, use the filter options in the Comments panel.

Example: If you want to see only unresolved comments related to color adjustments, you can filter the comments to display only those that are unresolved and relevant to color changes.

5. Exporting Comments

Exporting comments is useful for documenting feedback and tracking changes. You can export comments as a PDF or CSV file, which can be shared with team members or used for reporting purposes. To export comments, click the "Export" button in the Comments panel.

Example: After completing a round of feedback, you can export the comments as a PDF to share with stakeholders, providing a clear record of the feedback and changes made.

By mastering these concepts—Adding Comments, Responding to Comments, Resolving Comments, Filtering Comments, and Exporting Comments—you can effectively manage feedback in Figma, ensuring a smooth and collaborative design process.
