Any suggestion. The Figma AI icon doesn’t appear on the toolbar

The Figma AI was there, but it has disappeared. Also, after the update, the plugins are not showing up in the toolbar.

Having a very frustrating issue in comments where I’ve been trying to paste this string into a comment: Cancel Button: register:back:button-text And no matter what I do, Figma automatically changes it to: Cancel Button: register🔙button-text Is there a way to disable the colon shortcut? This is mildly infuriating!

It just says something went wrong. Please try again later. How much later? What’s actually the problem?

I can’t login on IOS Ipad app anymore. It worked before but to login you need to login through the browser of course but when the browser opens to login i get the message as seen on the bottom of the post. There are no updates for any browsers or Figma, how do I fix this? I’ve already tried restarting and clearing the cache, any other ideas? The IOS version is 18.2 in case that helps

Hello guys. Please help me out on this Issue. While I am working on Figma, it automatically restarts the app as if it was force closed and again reloads itself to the project which I was working on. Its happening from last 2-3 days. I even cannot reproduce the procedure because it happens randomly at any time. It shuts down the app and opens up on its own again without even having to reopen the app. I tried reinstalling the app still facing the same issue. Please help me out with this issue. Thanks

I’ve noticed that Figma has become extremely slow lately. It’s taking a lot of time to copy, paste, and open files, which is significantly affecting our productivity. Moreover the “Memory Usage” issue has been a regular thing… the whole team has been complaining about this… Figma Desktop App version 124.2.9** Is this the same with others too? Trying too see if its an known issue…

Hello Community, i am facing issue when i try to mask an image its show a green border. I have tried almost everything even Reinstall the Figma but still the issue no yet resolve. I am attaching the images with and without masking where you can easily see the difference. Please help me out. Thank you

Hey @Julian , thank you for the answer. Just to be clear, on my personal non-enterprise account, my work will not be used to train AI models at all - despite having nowhere to opt-out of the training module - so long as I don’t interact with the AI features?

Before you can easily select and just CTRL C / CTRL V the Shadow effect on the right panel, how we can copy shadow now?

Hi, I’m trying to create a component through a plugin that has four variants, and each variant includes a boolean property. Couldn’t really find something?! For fun, I tried giving the task to ChatGPT o1. Beside some “code” it also wrote: Note: In Figma’s newer component properties system, you can directly attach a boolean property to a single variant (so that you don’t need separate variants for icon on/off). However, the Plugin API (as of now) typically requires you to create multiple variant nodes if you want a boolean property to appear in the properties panel. Is this correct?

“Por que minha imagem aparece muito pequena dentro do mockup quando abro a visualização de protótipo (Shift + Espaço) no Figma?”

I’ve had a strange issue with our team library for the last couple of days. I’m getting no help from the error messages, and I can’t find any fixes in other topics. I can’t publish any changes to the library at all. There don’t appear to be any errors with the components. The publish pop-up is also showing 60 changes when I have only made a couple changes to existing components. Hitting publish with any of the components selected shows a red error notification: “Unable to publish X changes to the Team Library”. Meanwhile, other files using the library are showing that there are some updates, but they are for other components that haven’t been changed, and the timestamps for the changes don’t make any sense. They are showing lots of different changes at various times in the last 2 days, while I have been unable to publish. The list of components with updates doesn’t include any of the ones I’ve changed recently. Accepting these updates doesn’t apply any changes to any of the components

I have a ‘text’ component (title, paragraphs & cta) which is nested into a module component (text and image), the module component has left/right variants and then a vertical variant for desktop/tablet. I then have a ‘section’ component with slots. The module component can be instance swapped into the section, and the variant of the module can be changed via responsive variables. The problem is the various property settings on the text component do not carry through the variant changes (some of the time, oddly), and when changed via variable access to those properties is entirely removed (they just aren’t accessible/visible at all). It’s a bit complex to try and explain. I did record a video, but the 8mb upload limit doesn’t really work for videos! Any help appreciated as I would like to base the system for the design around a modular/responsive variable approach.

Why??? Why was this function not created?

How do I establish an open connection to an open web browser in C#? In a Microsoft C# program using a Visual Studio Code I am using the following namespaces: using OpenQA.Selenium; using OpenQA.Selenium.Chrome; using OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI; After I get a string variable, “url”, assigned with a URL of a website page, I use the following commands which successfully opens a browser window and loads the web site: IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(url); But this opens a chrome browser which is denoted somewhere as being a “test” session. It somehow knows it was launched from a program. And, since I am using this program to automate some interactions with linkedin, this information is passed along to linkedin which prompts me that it requires I login. This creates a cascading seriies of events that are difficult to automate including using my cell as a means of verification. So, instead of taking this route, how do I establish an open connection to an o

When I updated the name of the color variable, all the automatic layouts got confused. I had to manually click on the auto-layout layer to restore it, but the auto-layout was messed up again after refreshing the page.

Anyone knows what the black pad above the nav bar means? How do I get rid of it?

centering multiple elements inside each frame separately i think it’s saving time but i didn’t find such behavior on Figma for instance i have a main container inside desktop frame and i changed the size of it and i want to center that new width to the middle of the frame i have to go one by one if i select all they will collapse inside each other the only solution i know is auto layout but it’s not applicable if working on a new design

Imagine want to move your Figma design file across team projects but unable to find the match of the file. The reason is that you need to type the team project name perfectly to find it. That’s what I found with Figma “move file” button. Can you at least fix your SQL query and change it from and add LIKE = “%SEARCH%” so I can search in between the text.
