This doesn't really make sense, there would not be ROI to cater to a market of users who are choosing to already use the product for that use case when it's not supported. They _are_ ingrained in the ecosystem. It is pretty clearly targeted at making this more mainstream and mass-market.

If you don't see how "Our users are using our tool for X, let's make that easier for them" adds value then remind me to never work for you.

I'm no product manager, but how on earth does it not make sense to elevate a use case that people clearly want from ad-hoc solution to actual feature?

I’ve haven’t worked at a company where Figma is used “correctly”. It’s mostly used as a canvas to dump designs, slideshows, flowcharts and diagrams.

For example, N/Shift+N moves forward/backward a frame. I’m yet to see a Figma file where frames are correctly ordered or laid out, rendering this feature almost useless.

FYI - there are plugins that can help you easily order your frames by position or in other ways that make sense (I think the one I use is called Sorter).

But that's another example of the sort of hacky 'workaround' that should have first-class support if enough people need it.

Ah interesting. I only have a viewer account, so I imagine I wouldn’t be able to use such a plugin.

When you have a thousand engineers who cares about ROI anymore? It's how Google got to be Google. By building cool stuff and letting other teams pay the bills
