Can i create any from these websites

I have a file with local components. Every instance can be followed to the main component. I want to publish the file library. On the last step before publishing I have “Added (?)” message next to a few components (that work before publishing) saying: “This component was moved to another file. Publishing this new copy won’t update instances in other files.” The component wasn’t moved to another file. After publishing the library despite this message all local instances are detached and my only option to follow back to a component is to “Restore main component” - but the component was there anyways, it seems the connection breaks? When I click on “Restore main component” it places the same component on top of the one that now doesn’t seem to work. When I delete the one that doesn’t work and publish the library again, same thing happens. Could someone assist with this curious case?

Good morning all, does anyone have a list of warning light descriptions please. Thanks Dave

I'm experiencing super weird behavior all of the sudden - Desktop Figma on MacOS, 15.4.1.Text that I copy from one simple frame (a blank slide or rectangle) won't paste inside another after selecting that other frame to paste in. It either pastes in the space between frames or in the original frame.And this follows behavior in which it WAS pasting in a new frame, but in the center of it rather than where it was originally positioned in the first frame! WTH is going on? No different with paste in place or paste here.However, shapes and other frames paste as expected. Help!

I'm working on a website section. When I hover over the 'Apple' button, I want the Apple image to appear on the left. I’ve tried using variables, but the images flicker. I’m not sure how to set it up properly to make it work. Thanks!(additional details: If by default no buttons is hovered, it will display “Fruit” image) Don’t wanna make the entire section into a component variant, I have title and description too. Don’t think is best practice.Related threads but not applicable to my case:  

I'm sure this is not my problem. I haven't deleted these frameworks. Because I was still sleeping at that time. This isn't the first time I've encountered such a thing. Why on earth did this happen??The version number is: v125.1.5 

"I downloaded the 'The esigner' plugin from Figma as per GPT's instructions, but instead of converting the file to PSD, I accidentally uploaded my design to the website https://www.theesigner.io/. Even after logging in with my account, I can't find a way to delete it. What should I do?"

I have multiple components that lead with the same prefix. I need to change these for each project as we have project numbers associated for each job. When I do a “Find” I can see the list of component names. However, when I do a Find/Replace, there seems to be no results found. Any help is appreciated.

This is so unnecessary frustrating!  

Hi everyone 👋I’m working on a Figma plugin and I’m wondering if anyone has already built (or come across) a plugin template that follows a similar structure or logic to Marmelab’s React-Admin.Ideally, I’m looking for a template that: Uses React or similar component structure Is designed for plugin development in Figma Supports a clear UI logic or admin-style layout, like what Marmelab offers Bonus if it’s already integrated with Figma Plugin API basics Any pointers, links, or even your own project examples would be much appreciated 🙏Thanks in advance!

Recently we have started a workspace restructure exercise and I’ve encountered a frustrating issue with customizing the icon.  The default icon is a full bleed as well as spaces we have created in the past but now there seems to be a white border which I can’t get past.  Is this something new or has anyone dealt with this before?I’ve attached an example of what it looks like.  To the left you can see the white border, then transparency, then the un-scaled icon.  To the right you can see the border persisting even when scaling the icon.  

Hi,I’m trying to share a presentation from Figma Slides with someone outside my organization and give them edit access. I’ve been sharing the link, but they keep saying they can’t access it.Is there a specific way to share it with people outside the organization?

 Im having a problem with comonents when the size is set by a variable and the aspect ratio is locked.https://www.figma.com/design/JZunLI0B65xrRYRCmKWt4I/Component-Size-var-Bug?node-id=0-1&t=0OWhhCZcN6yK8qEP-1 1: You can see in this doc the component is designed in 100x100.2: With aspect ratio locked and entering the size manualy to 120 things work as expected.3: When the size is applyed as a var the size is incorrect 109,54x109,544 Without the aspect ratio lock the hight is correct when the var is applyed5: The basic frame not made into a component works with the var as expected. Has anyone else noticed this behaviour and have you found a sollution? Thanks  

I have the following component that consists of a Text, 2 nested toggle instances and 3 nested input instances. When you click between the toggles, the input lable text changes/variation change. This works if I only have one instance of this componet, but when I hav multiplle instances of this component in the same frame, the first nested input field dosen’t change its label text in prototype mode. However, it works if I manually change the variant through the Design panel.Here is how it looks in prototype mode: Everything looks good Oh no, the first nested input instance in the first instance don’t change as it do in the second instance.used the add button (+ Tilføj ejer) to add a third instance. The seocond and thid instanc elooks fine.Trying to toggle the second instance, but oh no, now the first nested input instance in the second instance don’t change either. It only works as intended in the third instacne.What is going on? Whelp!? 

Creating New Human-Machine PartnershipsIn recent years, the landscape of technology has been dramatically transformed by advances in artificial intelligence. Leading this revolution are Large Language Models (LLMs), sophisticated systems changing how we interact with computers and information. These powerful tools have become indispensable for the modern artificial intelligence developer, who must navigate an increasingly complex ecosystem of models, frameworks, and ethical considerations.The LLM RevolutionLarge Language Models represent a quantum leap in AI capabilities. Unlike traditional rule-based systems, LLMs learn patterns from vast datasets of human text, allowing them to generate human-like responses, translate languages, write code, and even create art. Their versatility stems from their foundation in transformer architecture, which enables them to process and generate text with remarkable coherence and context awareness."These models have fundamentally changed what we though

 I’m working on handing off animations to a developer and I’m trying to understand the exact behavior of the "Slow" curve preset in Figma (under the interactions).I know Figma offers easing presets like "gentle", "quick", and "Custom", but I couldn’t find any documentation or cubic-bezier values for what the "Slow" curve actually represents.Can anyone clarify: What kind of motion the "Slow" easing represents? Is there a corresponding cubic-bezier value I can give to developers? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I’ve got two variants of a component and i decided that one of them should be withdrawn from use. Is there any option to delete variant and replace all instances of the component with remaining variant? 

Hi! I just bought 2 dev seats for my organization; however, I don't have full access since I'm using only the free organization plan with the 2 developer seats. I'm working on my project, but the developers can't access it or upload the projects to the teams. Is there any other way I can do this? I tried with my personal free account and invited the developers, but that also didn't work. Is there a workaround for this? Perhaps making one of the developers have a full seat and Dev Mode at the same time?

I have accidentally created a file in a client’s paid organisation where I have guest access. I have added a lot of important comments in the file. How can I now move the file from the client organisation’s paid plan to my personal free plan and keep the comments?If I download the file it loses the comments, and the same if I try to copy/paste the frames to a new file.What can I do?

 How can I add radius the red circled part? Like this:  Those are two different rectangles: I pressed enter on the customized shape (left one) then used pen tool for customize it. But I don’t know how to giving radius that part.

I have a prototype that I’d like to showcase on a subdomain of my website, which I can set up via my DNS. 

I would like to report a problem in this forum, but it seems it’s not allowed to attach a mp4 screen recording even it’s only 2MB. How should I this problem which is hard to explain by screenshots? 

I’m hovering outside the layer to try and activate the rotation cursor, but it’s not showing. How come?

While setting up my components for my component library, I came across an issue. A lot of my components contain instances of other components. To make sure our designers only use the correct components, we use the “_” before the names of nested components when publishing. But this causes the issue where properties of the nested components is hidden in the properties panel of the main component.For example:I have a “Dialog” component consisting of a header, a body text and an instance of a “dialog buttons” component. This “dialog buttons” component has multiple variants based on how many buttons should be visible and if they should be stacked or side-by-side. If I hide that nested “dialog buttons” component from publishing, it is not visible in the properties panel of the “Dialog” component when used outside the library. (And yes, I have checked everything from the “Expose nested instances” list)So, is there a way to hide the “dialog buttons” component from the asset search, but have it

  I’ve created this toggle and am having an issue with auto layout. With auto layout, the container size scales accordingly when the text is updated. However, I can’t overlap the containers. Auto layout insists on separating them. But I need them together because, when the “Shopping Bag” container changes size, I want the “Favorites” container to also change to maintain consistent padding. Is there a workaround for this?
