✨ Updates to workspaces
We updated workspaces (a feature in the Enterprise plan) to serve as a new layer in Figma's content hierarchy. The changes will make it easier for users on the Enterprise plan to navigate across the product. Users will now see:
- Teams grouped by workspace in the file browser
- Teams grouped by workspace in the library search modal
- A workspace filter in Search results
We also took some of these navigational improvements (e.g. the addition of breadcrumbs and a new page layout) and released them to the Starter, Pro, and Orgs plans. Finally, we introduced a reformatted library search modal in the Orgs plan as well.
π New ways to search and browse the Figma Community
We redesigned the Figma Community so it’s easier to explore thousands of templates, widgets, and plugins created by users like you.
- Use new categories to discover resources related to topics like design systems, icons, and typography
- Find what you’re looking for with improved search, sort, and filters

π¨ Branch merge stability fixes
We've fixed a number of bugs that should make your merges go a lot smoother.
- We've made improvements so that you shouldn't face issues when merging images, and so that we better protect against data loss after a merge.
- We've removed a blocking banner that users used to see in certain circumstances that prevented them from proceeding with the merge.
- We've also added a warning banner if you're trying to close a file while a merge is in progress, to avoid merge issues.
