Does anyone know how to make a swipeable drawer in Figma without overlaying the first layer?Here’s a link to an example video:: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/tmhjrom56idi5zrghmojf/Swipeable-Drawer-1.mp4?rlkey=jgizkzbb9zrgmodnxiw2szm1i&st=1r8bhrdg&dl=0 

I want to create a presentation in Figma, but I need it to be vertical. I’ve been trying to figure it out all morning, but I still can’t find how to make a slide vertical in Figma Slides.Also, I’d like to ask: is it possible to make a clickable word on one slide that links to a specific slide in the presentation?I usually work in Figma Design, and now in Figma Slides I feel a bit lost.I’d really appreciate your help!

I am a brand new figma user, I am trying to understand if there is a workflow comparable to that used for creating indesign template slides with frames. I want to add a “frame” to a template slide so that a different image can be uploaded to each one while maintaining the same position across slides. thanks

Hi everyone,I wanted to see if anyone else in the community has experienced this - or has advice on how to handle it. Since March 19, 2025, my Figma account has been charged for 5 seats, even though my seat approval settings were set to manual approval. I never received any requests to approve these extra seats, nor did I manually approve them.So far, I’ve been charged $110 per seat for 4 months, totaling $440 for these unapproved seats. I’ve already contacted Figma support to request a refund, but I’m wondering: Has anyone had a similar issue? How was it resolved? Is there anything specific I should show or send to support to make the process smoother (e.g., screenshots, invoice details)? Any insight would be really appreciated!

HelloI have a business problem for Figma:My team want to find a Figma Side Menu structure. We want to have a title for a Component Set - Say fist part might be FORM FIELDS -  ( then we will need 5 different company files to access the version of FORM FIELDS that is correct for their use. We will make the correct components for each dept to use and find here. Am providing something I made with a Section…..but really wonder is there a sample Fig File someone has to make what I need be better and simple for use. thanks: Daryl

Hello, I was wondering why I can't  find my figma account - [redacted PII]. I tried to log in and I realized I forgot my password. So I clicked to reset password and in my email there was no link or anything about figma. Do you know why?

Can I use an account with figma dev access in multiple devices? Is there any device limit for that?

I’m trying to create an icon component with an indicator (like a dot or badge), but I want to avoid making separate variants for each icon just to show or hide the indicator. Ideally, I’m looking for a simple, reusable setup — maybe using a frame or wrapper. One more thing: when I add the icon (with a color set via a variable) into another component, the color doesn’t inherit as expected — it keeps the original value instead of adapting to the parent context. For context: I’m using icons from a shared library. All icons follow a consistent structure — same layer naming and default color (not linked to any style). Colors are assigned through design tokens at the component level, not directly within the icons themselves. Has anyone found a clean solution for this kind of setup?

Hello,My developer pointed out to me that when they view the Figma files in Dev mode, the font information only shows this: color: var(--rgb-353132, #231F20);font-family: "New Science";font-size: 24px;font-style: normal;font-weight: 700;line-height: 30px; /* 125% */ Does anyone know why the dev mode doesn’t showcase if the font is extended, or condensed, etc? 

I’m working in Figma (v125.4.9) and have duplicated both a UI file (UI) and its linked styleguide (SG) to create new versions: UI-V2 and SG-V2.I updated UI-V2 so it links to SG-V2 instead of the original SG. I used the “Swap library” functionality to remap all styles and components from the old library to the new one. I then removed the original styleguide (SG) from the file via Manage Libraries > Remove.Here’s the issue:When I make changes to SG and publish them, those changes still show up as updates in UI-V2, even though:• SG is no longer listed under “Libraries added to this file”• It’s also not listed under “Libraries used in this file”• I successfully swapped all styles to SG-V2 and removed the old one Yet updates from SG continue to appear in UI-V2. Why is this happening? How can I fully disconnect or purge all hidden links to the original styleguide? Any insight or solutions would be appreciated!

Hi everyone,I’m having some issues creating a prototype animation in Figma. I want to make a swipeable drawer animation, but the result looks a bit strange: The drawer came out really slow, but my setting is 300ms, please see the video link: swipeable drawer The  instance below has unexpectedly moved to the side.   *Here’s the information of my setting: 

I am new to Figma,  I have been following the wonderful tutorials out on youtube.  I really love this program!  I am trying to accomplish this effect- on this website it happens at the “ WE ARE.”  It grows and expands to my eyes.  How do I accomplish this please?  Is there a plugin that accomplishes this effect?  https://www.landing.love/sites/svz/Hi- how do I expand the letters or an object to come to the screen towards the viewer’s eyes?

Hi everyone,I’m having an issue with image fills in Figma — whenever I try to switch the Fill mode from “Fill” to “Crop”, it doesn’t work. The dropdown lets me click “Crop,” but it immediately switches back to “Fill,” and no crop handles appear on the canvas.Here’s what I’ve tried: Selected a regular rectangle and applied an image fill. Attempted to switch the Fill mode to “Crop” (doesn’t stick). Made sure I’m not inside a component instance or group. Checked for multiple fills — only one is applied. Tried in both the browser and the desktop app. Refreshed the browser and restarted Figma. Tried with a brand new file — same issue. This used to work fine before, so I’m not sure if it’s a bug, a corrupted setting, or something I’m missing.Has anyone faced this before? Any ideas on how to fix it? 

I have created a component set with multiple frames. Frame 1 has an input field which I connected in frame 2 where a keyboard slides up. I was able to choose “change to” and select “slide in”. It worked great. When I tried doing the same thing for another component set the slide in option was disabled. Why?? 

So I’m creating a stop animation with images in figma. And I’ve selected all my components and I want to create a variant set. But I cannot see the option for this. Has it been removed or changed? 

So I’ve done everything properly steps and all created a menu with 4 buttons > applied auto layout > made it into a component > added a variant > named them as their states > prototyped as required > added the instance on to the screen and when finally presenting when I click the button it opens upside down. this has me so demotivated as I’m just beginning to learn Figma. Please help me creators.

Hello,  I've just received this e-mail (see screenshot) in my Proton inbox (not the Gmail one which is linked to Figma) and I was wondering if it was spam or a genuine request. Could you help?  Thanks a lot,m.

I am trying to design a documents page like the picture above. I have a situation where I need to create a dropdown where upon selecting one of the options will create a another question prompt along with a textbox for the user to fill out. This will also push down the other content that was originally below the dropdown to fit the new question prompt along with the textbox. Is there a way to do so?
