Hi, I’ve got two variants of a component and i decided that one of them should be withdrawn from use.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.

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? 

Hi all, I’m currently trying to connect a webhook to our team’s MS teams channel via Microsoft power automate.  We have gotten the webhook to post LIBRARY_PUBLISH updates but as a results, we don’t get the entire list of Figma components that have been created/modified/deleted, etc. has anyone successfully gotten the webhook to post component names, excluding property names and values? Currently it requires 2 API calls to fetch the key and then the name itself. Thanks all! here’s an example of what’s posted:

Hello,I use several profiles on Figma, one dedicated to a work team, the other personal to work on files and make feedback.When the figma file has been opened with one of the two profiles, I can't find any way to swap profiles to leave comments or make changes with the right one.The only solution seems to be to disconnect the account you don't want to use? Which means reconnecting several times a day.Thanks in advance

A designer makes designs with styles.I have edit rights at the file.I copy an element with (text) styles within.But I do not get the styles.I would like to get the whole design including the styles.Is the solution that my designer has the professional version.Or do I need to have the professional version as well?After the design is finished, is it possible and easy to return to the free version?For both of us, it is not our job, so we do not need the paid version for more projects.

I submitted my plugin (Figma to React | Figma) for review on Apr 6, 2025. On the window that popped up, it said it should be reviewed within 5-10 business days. However I did not receive an email nor get it approved, and it’s been 16 days. Would like to know how long I should expect to wait. Thanks!

Hey designers!I’m pretty new to both Figma and UI design, and I’ve been struggling a bit. Honestly, it’s hard to explain exactly what I’m stuck on—partly because I don’t even know what the terms are yet! But I’ve noticed that a lot of experienced designers use something called a design system, and it seems super helpful.One thing I’m really curious about is how to name color variables in a design system. For example, I often see things like Blue-50, Blue-100, and so on. What’s the logic behind that kind of naming? How does it work?I’ve watched a bunch of YouTube videos, and many of them recommend using plugins. But I’d really like to understand how to name them myself, the proper way.Is there a standard I should be following? Should I stick to the same naming style all the time? I’d really appreciate any explanations or resources you could share!Thanks so much in advance. I’m finding all of this a bit overwhelming as a beginner, and your help would mean a lot!
