Hi everyone,
We are experiencing an issue with one of our Figma files and would appreciate your help.


Basically we’re collaborating on NPI pages - both the copy and design teams are working in the same file. The specific page we were working on contains 6 sections, each with approximately 6 frames. We had been adding content (images and copy) and updating some components to showcase the correct font.

At some point, several unexpected changes occurred in the layout:

-Some components moved unexpectedly in the page, either upwards into other sections or downwards out of their frames.
-Nested elements within components also shifted or changed in structure.
-The overall organisation of the sections was disrupted without any clear action that would explain it.

We’re unsure what triggered these changes, and unfortunately, we now need to manually clean up and re-organise the affected areas. Anyone could help us understand what might have caused this, and if there’s anything we can do to prevent it from happening again?

Thank you in advance for your support!!!

Have you tried going through the version history to see when those changes happened?

I've come across similar issues, but later found out that those were my own fault where my hand had accidentally brushed my laptop's touchpad, which would in turn select and move layers around without me knowing.


Hi ​everyone,
I agree with ​@driftingsteps , it really helps to check version history regularly so you can track or roll back changes if needed. I’d also recommend locking key frames or sections to avoid accidental movement, especially in collaborative files.


I also saw you’ve already reached out to the support team, thanks for reaching out to us! The technical team is waiting some additional information to move forward with the investigation, so please check your inbox when you get a chance. Thank you!
