All was fine yesterday… but as I log in this morning- the checkbox has disappeared.

What’s going on?

    We hear you and we’re sorry for the frustration, @Lyle_K.

    The team discussed a lot of different factors before making the decision to move. They anticipated that the move may confuse existing users, but ultimately, it made sense to keep scrolling options in Prototype, since scrolling and overlays are already there. It felt like an intuitive move considering anyone who hadn’t used it before may look in prototype settings.

      The option has moved into the Prototype panel. You’ll find it there:

      panel

      panel-2

      See https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039818734-Prototype-scrolling-with-overflow-behavior#Scroll_position for more details.

      Figma team, are you serious with this change? So now I have to make two more clicks to do the same thing. It’s ridiculous.

      How could I have the option “fix position when scrolling” back. It seems to be a global changes, which apply to all of my Figma files. What used to have the options are now disabled. Appreciate the help in advanced!

      Hey @Yan_Wang,

      We’ve moved your topic to a similar, existing one. The “Fix position when scrolling” checkbox has been moved to the Prototype tab.
