Glitchy button animation right before switching to the next page

Hi there everyone! I’m relatively new to Figma, just finished my beginner course today and about to finish my very first project in Figma, so I’m pretty excited but that comes with a bit of frustration as well because I seem to have ran into a problem while prototyping. So I’m designing a website for mobile interface and I have quite a few buttons that should have some simple animations when clicking on it and then navigate to the next page. Most of them work, but there are two that always reveal a glitch when I view them in the prototype review. It happens suddenly so it’s not that obvious but still visible. My buttons are made of component variants and the prototyping happens between the two different variants and is set to “While pressing”. When I press the button on a seperate page without linking it to another page when clicked it works perfectly. But as soon as I place it into my design and give it another prompt “When clicked” a second before it transitions to the next page the

Unable to Receive Account Setup Email

Hi everyone, I am trying to create a new account with Figma, but I am not receiving the email to complete my account setup. Here’s what I have tried so far: Checked my spam/junk folders. Clicked the “resend email” option several times. Attempted the process from multiple devices and browsers. Despite these efforts, the setup email never arrives. Can anyone advise what to do to resolve this issue? I would appreciate any help or guidance

Exported .pngs from Figma render with artefacts in Unity

When I export from Figma to .png, then try to bring them into Unity, the results often contain artefacts. This is mostly when I export things with glows + drop shadows. If I build the exact same UI elements in Adobe Illustrator, the .png exports perfectly. (Will post images once I have access to my PC)

Controlling hover state position

I have a component with multiple variants for the static state and hover states. On hover, I want the hover state to appear in a different place than where it is appearing on my screen - when it fades in, it falls off the frame. Is there a way to control the hover state position?

I am a bit annoyed that I don't have UI3 access

My colleague, who has had his Figma profile for less than a year, has gotten a UI3 update. I have had my account since 2017, have been an active Figma user, and have specifically added myself to the waitlist, but I still need an update. He is a product manager and doesn’t use Figma daily; however, I am a product designer, and my day is spent with this tool. I’m sorry if this sounds childish, but I’m really frustrated. Can someone please explain why I haven’t received the update?

Resizing issue with autolaout

When I’m trying to manually resize the container frame (using cmd+alt), which contains 4 different frames with an elements inside of it. These elements start moving chaotically, leaving the parent frame and ignoring the constraints of it, for some reason the main frame size is effecting the position of these elements, but they shouldn’t move. Before: After: What is happening here? Did Figma change the shortcut or behavior again? – test fileFigma – 19 Aug 24

Issue: client_meta Returning Null in Comment API Response

I’ve encountered an issue while working with the Figma Comments API, and I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar or has insights to share. The Problem When fetching comment data, I sometimes receive a null value for the client_meta field in the API response. This occurs inconsistently, making it challenging to rely on this field for certain functionalities in my application. Example Response Here’s a sanitized example of a comment object where client_meta is null: { "id": "XXXXXXXXX", "uuid": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx", "file_key": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", "parent_id": "XXXXXXXXX", "user": { "handle": "John Doe", "img_url": "https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?size=240&default=https%3A%2F%2Fs3-alpha.figma.com%2Fstatic%2Fuser_s_v2.png", "id": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" }, "created_at": "2024-XX-XXT11:13:04.947Z", "resolved_at": null, "message": "Sample comment message", "reactions": [], **"client_meta": n

How do you add frames/shapes into an auto-layout frame quickly?

Hey there, I’m a long-time Figma user and all these years I’m suffering from a UX decision the Figma team made on how new elements are added into frames. All I want to do is to add an element to an existing frame but in most cases when that frame already has other nested frames or groups it would place the new item inside one of those frames instead of just adding it to the parent. It always adds the frame to the child frame that exists in the spot where I click-to-add, instead of adding it to the selected parent. Is there really no way to just add a new element to the parent frame either at the very top or the very bottom, or at least in a random place? A shortcut would be even better. But being able to add a frame exactly to the parent frame I need it to be added to is crucial. It takes so much time to move elements out of nested illustrations and groups and it ruins the workflow and the whole experience for me.

Component scaled element not inherited by instances

I’m creating some icons with a base resolution of 1024 x 1024. Each icon design variation is created as its own component at 1024px. Then, I have some components which contain those icons where those icons are scaled to different sizes depending on the treatment. (60px, 72px, etc.) In order to maintain the icon design at various scales, I use the scaling tool accessed via the ‘k’ key. From within the main component (non instances) I can then swap the scaled icon for any other icon component and the scaling applied by the ‘k’ tool is maintained. However, when creating instances of the component, and then attempting to swap the inner icon instance in exactly the same way as I do within the parent instance, scaling is NOT maintained. I’ve attached a video which demonstrates the issue: https://imgur.com/F2wLXJd In the video, I’ve created two example icons. The first icon contains a series of grey capsules which should be scaled. The second icon is exactly the same but with yellow capsules.

Non-animated elements moving around during prototype preview?

When I preview my animations, other elements (such as text) move around slightly during the animation which is very distracting and looks unprofessional. All of my frames are copy-paste, so there isn’t any spacing differences between animation frames with elements that are not animated. Any idea on how to fix this? Eventually, I want to record the animation flows to display on my portfolio and I want it to look as clean as possible. Screen recording: screen-recorder-wed-apr-05-2023-13-26-06.webm on Vimeo
