Hi. I have a question, is it my error or is it more of a rendering of the image when prototyping? I have a project, I divided the website sections into individual frames. I then “wrapped” these frames into one large frame. They are aligned perfectly every single pixel. Unfortunately, in the prototypes view I occasionally get such a thin gray line between the frames as below in the screenshot. How to deal with this?

Hi, I’ve seen past threads that Figma doesn’t yet offer discounted plans for non-profits, but you do have educational plans. Do you have any plans to start offering non-profit discounts? It would be a great benefit to many, and honestly, you might be the only one we pay for that doesn’t provide a discount… 

I would really like to apply to the student plan but I dont have an educational mail nor my educational institution provide them, I can verify Im a student but the application forms doesnt seem to take in count my institution. Any help is wellcome.Thanks.

I’m running into an issue where when I go to add an image using the keyboard shortcut “Shift Command K” it doesn’t open my finder, instead, it opens a search menu that lets me navigate between Figma files. I checked the keyboard shortcuts and it looks like add image is still listed as Shift Command K. How do I stop this from happening? Is there a new keyboard shortcut for add image? I am on Mac.

Hello,I subscribed to the Professional plan, but I don’t understand why I was charged $171.Could you please explain why this amount was charged?I would also like to cancel the payment and request a refund if possible.Thank you for your help.

I signed up for Figma today as a newbie, hoping to create a mock-up of a landing page for a new web app. It started well. I managed to import and existing landing page and managed to edit it with the AI functionality. However, the credits ran out quickly - I am on the basic free plan. Now I cannot find any way to edit the document in the normal editing view. I have one file and a team library. That is it. I would like to try the free editing option. I spent a long while on the chat help, which looked promising to begin with but didn’t solve the issue unfortunately. 

Hi everyone,I recently received a Figma Config 2026 ticket/code, but I’m a bit confused about how and where to redeem it.The code starts in this format:CONFIG 26-XXX- XXXXXXI assume it’s meant for ticket registration or activation, but I can’t seem to find the correct redemption page anywhere on the Config website or inside my Figma account.Could anyone point me to the proper page URL or flow for redeeming these Config codes? If you’ve already done it before, a quick step-by-step would really help.Thanks in advance 🙏

Hi,I recently completed a research interview via Outset.ai after being invited through a popup during the Figma tutorial. I was promised a $10 incentive payment within one week, but it has now been 2–3 weeks and I still haven't received it.During the interview I did encounter a connection issue and had to reconnect after a few hours — my progress was saved. There was also a brief error screen that said "contact Figma", but when I retried the next day it worked fine and I was able to complete the session.Could someone from the research team look into this and confirm whether my payment is on its way?Thank you!

The Figma API is completely blocked (rate limit ~25h on all endpoints, including curl). There should be no restrictions, as I have an Edu subscription. Why is this happening? Is this subscription limited to the API?

Hi everyone,I used to copy an image (Ctrl+C from browser or local folder) and then paste it (Ctrl+V) directly into an image component in Figma - like for cards or avatar images - and it would automatically replace the image.But recently, this no longer works. When I try pasting, nothing happens. Now Figma only shows options like “Upload from computer” or “Make an image” (screenshot attached).I’m wondering: is this a recent change or bug in Figma?Is there still a way to paste an image directly into a component without having to upload it manually?Thanks in advance!  

Hi,My projects requires a custom font that I have installed locally, but it doesn’t show up on Figma and there isn’t a desktop download for Linux.Is there a way to edit files with custom fonts? I use Fedora KDE and Figma in the browser.Thanks

Buenas Tardes. Se trata de una aportacion de Historia a la comunidad. gracias.

Hello everyone! this is the design team from The Apprentice Project. We deliver learning experiences to marginalised children in India through WA based conversational flows. Wanted to check on a problem we are trying to resolve. Our current workflow is that the design team creates the conversational flows in the form of a tree diagram in Figjam and our tech team creates them in Glific, a tool that creates the conversational flows for WA.Currently we can only see the final conversational experience during the testing phase of these flows. We were wondering if there is a way to simulate this conversational WA flow before it is created on Glific on Figjam itself? If anyone has tried out a hack? 

I am a member (and admin) of an organization (Org A) with Figma Pro accounts.One of our clients (Org B) has shared a Connected Project with us. I wanted to move some Figma files that have been in our own Org A projects, into the Connected Project owned by Org B. However, when I go to Move a file, I don’t see the connected project, nor does the Org B. show up when I look at the list of teams under the “All” tab on the Move file dialog. How can I move files to a connected project of which I am not the host? Thanks. 

Due to a billing issue, my Figma team is currently locked. While waiting for the issue to be resolved, I still need to continue working on my files.I’m planning to move my file to Drafts temporarily so I can keep working on it. I would like to confirm:When I move the file back from Drafts to a Project later, will it retain the component links to my design system file? Will prototype links and connections also remain intact? will there be other issues? (unforseen)Thanks

Hi everyone, we have a dedicated icon library for our design system, but Figma Make is currently unable to fetch icons from it. Because of this, the screens generated by Make don’t always use our DS icons correctly.Has anyone found a reliable workaround or solution for this?

i just… first of all, cheers to devs for ruining the work mood, second, how to disable auto-lists and all the auto-formatting in figjam? i don’t need it. neither does anyone who ever worked in Word. thanks.

We have these two variations to support hover interactions. When the text is changed while using this component upon changing to the hover variant the underline text styling is not getting applied. Also, Figma stopped supporting changing the text styling on the linked text labels. This has become very painful for us in alot of our components text properties were linked to keep it the same across various variants but their styling were changing which now can’t happen.Is this a bug..? 

HiI have a pretty large design file. In that file I have a substantial amount of variables. They all link (aliased) to variables in another file where my primitives are placed.What I would like to achieve is to be able to copy my Design file and copy my Primitives file. I Then need the variable collection in my COPY-Design file to be relinked to my new primitive file called COPY-Primitives.I know how to use plugins for importing collections and relinking variables on components that way. But I cannot seem to find a way or a plugin where I can relink my entire variable collection to a copy of my primitives. At least not automatically. Any way I can accomplish relinking my variable collection to my new copy of my primitives without going through plus severeal hundred variables manually?Thanks.

I cannot get my hover effect to work, I got it working outside a figma page, when I moved the two images on the page nothing!!!I need to finish this project for my portfolio so I can move onto my last project so I can get a job!! I used chat exhaustively and could not get this to work!! How can I have a live person help me>?

app preview in FIGMAMAKEI made an app on figma make, which is compatible with iPhone 16. I published and got a link, but when I tested the app on my phone by connecting it, I found that it couldn't be fully displayed when opened in the link (like a real app). When operating in a browser, the toolbar can only be hidden, but it still cannot be displayed in full screen. Does anyone have any methods to enable the apps made by figma make to be previewed on mobile phones? It can be interacted and used normally, and displayed in full screen!app preview in Safari

My Figma desktop hasn’t worked i am on Windows 10 with pretty decent specs., it works fine on the browser but not on my desktop the background process is showing in the task manager but it won’t draw any power from the CPU. I tried clearing the cache memory, turning off the firewall, and fresh installing it but whenever I open the setup it buffers, and shows the Figma symbol, and that’s it! It won’t ask me for the location to install or if I want a desktop/start menu file. Then if I search for Figma it shows that the app is installed but still won’t open and the Figma agent is open in the background without drawing any power. PLEASE HELP!!!
