Question

Alt + Tab always loads the home tab.

When im on a different window and alt+tab back to figma, it loads the home tab instead of the tab i was on before. This is extremely annoying cause i have to then navigate to the desired figma tab every time. I switch between vs code and figma 1000 times per day and its doing my head in.

 

Is this intended behaviour or a bug? I dont know why it would be intended.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for flagging the behavior. I tested on my end with MacOS environment, I couldn’t replicate this. Could you try the troubleshooting below?

  • Close any Figma tabs you're not using
  • Browser: Force-quit and open Figma in a new browser window.
  • Desktop App: Force-quit the Figma Desktop app and restart it. If the issue persists, try clearing the cache.

If you're still experiencing the issue, could you share your operating system and browser information? If possible, recording a short video of the issue would be very helpful for our team to investigate.

 

Thanks,

Toku

suffering the same issue here.

I can’t open figma in full screen mode ever since.

Clearing the cache does not help.

Hi ​@intaek h 

 

Sorry for the delayed followup. Did you still see this issue? Could you share the screen recordings of the issue so that we can investigate it? 

 

Thanks for your patience.
