Is frame only can't hug?

I have a card design like the image, with an icon in the left frame and content in the right. The left frame is set to ‘hug’ with 16px left padding, and the right frame is set to ‘fill’ (ignore this part). The problem is that the left frame doesn’t shrink to fit the padding when I hide or delete the icon. It maintains the same width as if the icon were still there. I expected it to adjust and only show the padding. Can anyone explain this behavior?

Responsive Carousel Prototype

Hello, I was wondering if it’s possible to create a responsive carousel with auto-layout? Sort of like this, I made it using contraints but the problem is since I didn’t use auto-layout the slides wouldn’t position themselves properly, but on the otherhand if I used auto-layout I couldn’t reproduce the similar resizing effect. Thanks

The mechanical response completely fails to address my issue

Are you guys really using the products you designed yourselves? In the annual seat allocation, you can only add seats but not remove unused ones. Continuing the discussion from How to remove unused Figma design seats？

Design System + Handoff To Devs

Hi - My startup has somebody that built design files in Figma for our devs that has years of experience as a Creative Director, but she isn’t a UI designer at all, and therefore has limited experience building something in Figma. Our engineers are really struggling to use the Figma files into building responsive front-end code. Specifically, that’s because our Figma isn’t response. I’d love any advice or suggestions you might have on how we could find a Figma expert or something similar to help transition what we’ve built so far into a responsive design system that we could continue to build on.

Restored an old version but no "done" button appeared

As title states, restored an old version (was just 10 minutes before, made a mistake and needed to reverse it), but once I restored it, it went to view only. Looked on the forums and everything said to click the “done” button if I wanted to edit it again, however, no “done” button shows up anywhere for me. Any help would be appreciated, even if there’s a way to copy the restored version and put it in a new file that I can edit.

isMask property isn't working properly

Hi there, We have a mask rectangle in a Figma file that is masking an image. However, when we fetch the node through the Plugin API, the isMask property returns false. When we create a mask from scratch, it works as expected. But in this case, the property seems to return an incorrect value. Are we missing something, or could this be a bug? Thanks!

Resolved comments keep reappearing; getting 'unavailable' error

Left a comment in prototype mode of desktop app Resolved comment in design mode Comment reappeared Deleted thread Comment reappeared Resolved comment Received ‘Sorry, this comment is unavailable.’ error message Note that I reloaded the tab and restarted the desktop app and repeated these^ steps, and the issue remains. Update: The comment doesn’t exist when I open the prototype in Figma web. It’s driving me nuts; I use comments like a checklist, and it makes me feel like I have something left to do and it makes my workspace feel messy. Related to this issue that I can’t reopen: Cant resolve Comments, also cant hide them

I tried everything, updated the browsers, switched between Opera and Chrome, logged in and out and nothing seemed to work. (My phone is Xiaomi Mi9 lite, with Android 10) Do you have any idea how to resolve this issue?

I have an image with a logo on it and a transparent background. I want to cut out the shape of the logo on a black square. I’m able to use boolean to do that with the text, but when i do it with the image it cuts out a whole square. Is it possible to cut out just the shape of the logo? (I want to see through the black square in the shape of the logo i have)

Unable to scroll through mobile menu on phone?

I created a mobile menu with an accordion but when I expand it I’m unable to scroll down through the menu on my cell phone in safari. The frame is in auto layout as well but even when the accordion drop down is closed the frame won’t scroll down. All other auto layour accordion menus work on the phone except for frames of this size. The menu appears cut off but I can scroll through the other pages which are longer frames. Is this a safari issue? I just find it strange that the other work with their sizing. I appreciate all the help everyone has given me on here and I apologize for so many questions lately!

How to transfer ownership of a team if original owner is no longer an employee?

There is this Help article (https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039481134-Transfer-ownership-of-a-team), but it only covers the scenario when the original owner has access. But how can admins take ownership of a team or give it to an existing user when the original owner is no longer part of the organisation (account removed) and teams show no owner at all? There is no “Owner” to select from member access settings, even for admins.
