Cursor bug when trying to resize box?

Hi there! After the latest update, I can’t resize autolayouts and boxes anymore (see video).

The resize handle doesn’t become available - I can sometimes get the handle it if I am very very slow and patient. In the video I end up moving the box, not resizing it.

Pretty basic thing to be able to resize stuff! And pretty devastating! (I also still have occasional problems with zooming in with my MacBook Pro trackpad).

Has someone found a way to fix this? Is there a better way to report this bug?

Specs:
macOS Monterey 12.4
Figma Desktop App version 116.0.5

Thanks for the context, @Marcelo_Scharlau_Coelho!

So far, @BW1’s suggested solution above was the only way we could reproduce this issue. For us, this primarily occurs when you’re running other software in the background while trying to use Figma.

Are you running any other software when this occurs? If so, can you close all other software and let us know if that helps?

I restarted the computer and the problem is not happening anymore. Will try to check closing other software next time this issue happens and get back here.

‼️ Close all Adobe products‼️
When, i.e., the PS is opened, somehow, it disrupts Figma.
I guess we are lucky the purchase didn’t happen …

Same problem here, but:

Log out, clean browser cache, login again - start Figma app --- works finde for me!
