Good afternoon, a file has disappeared that has not been opened for about 2 years. I really need it now. how to find/restore it?

Hello, I was wondering if I can also move components of my components page in project A to a dedicated new project, while keeping them linked? Right now my component library lives in my project, but since it will be working with different projects as well, I like to have one project with only components, which serves the other projects… 🙂

Hello, I am a designer using Figma. When using the Eyedropper tool, the Color Picker shows RGB values like 255, 255, 255. Is there a way to set it to display HEX values, such as #ffffff, instead?

I’ve been trying to run research sessions (moderated and unmoderated) and I’ve tested a link multiple times with everything working. Then, later, the link just pulls up a blank screen with a count of 0/0 screens. This is delaying our results, making the researchers uncomfortable in front of our test users, and costing us on our testing platform. I’ve seen this topic here before with no answer. My only solution seems to be generating a new link, but that is not a solution, just a workaround. This looks like a bug. My file name, location, and number of pages were not changed. The only thing that was changed was other flows that were unrelated to the one with the tested prototype. Thoughts on that?

I created an autolayout and I’m placing one layer on top of the other, so I hope that the layer is in front of this one. That’s not what’s happening. Even when I select the Bring to front option, it moves my layer below the other one. Anyone else having this problem?

Hi all, A bit of a novice here; i must have clicked something and now have this white box or maybe I made things transparent. I’m not sure, but I would love to know what I did wrong so I can fix it in the future! Thanks!

Any libraries are not published (gray button) and not imported. I have two teams, and this is not working for any of my teams. What happened?

Hello! Lately I have been having problems with comments in figma app. Once the comment is added I cannot see it in the file unless I reload the app. It is really wasting the time for the team work. Please let me know if you could take a look into this bug. Thanks

Hello, Comments are missing in Figma. Some of my team comments disappeared and Client comments are missing. Design documents

We have developed a plugin called “Dualite” for Figma and want to publish it, but when I try to publish, I get an error saying, “We detected a change to your account details. Please contact support@figma.com to publish this plugin. Please resolve at the earliest. Our major critical update is due.

I have a lof of drafts. Today I duplicated a draft and it says after the copy and it goes into edit mode: You don’t have access to this file. If I try to move it, it shows that it’s not located in DRAFTS at all, but in “Another user’s folder” and I can’t duplicate, edit or do anything. So did Figma turn off unlimited drafts now? This would be a pretty weird way to do it?

I’m wanting to import a 3D model I downloaded from SketchFab into my Figma Prototype. I’m using anima to embed the code into my Figma project. But, Anima really just generates the code snippet, and I want to preview it as a part of my Figma prototype. Anyone know how to do this? Here is a video explaining my question: Vidyard

This just started happening. When I go to the Figma home tab, it never loads, nor does it show an indication that it’s trying to load. Reloading the tab, restarting: nothing helps. Internet is fine, and design tabs that I have open load fine So, no access to any of my files, except (thankfully) open design tabs. Using Figma Mac client, no updates available. Here’s what I see:

Is anybody else getting the following error when they try and use the design mode in Figma Slides: Figma slides design mode requires a Figma design plan And yes, before you ask, I am logged in on an account that has a design plan seat.

Here’s my dashboard since I’ve moved items into trash.

hello, I would like to acquire FIGMA for my UX / UI team and I saw that there was a JIRA plugin to integrate Jira and Figma into tickets, workflows, automation, etc… Knowing that I have the Premium version of JIRA Cloud, which version of FIGMA would be compatible for my needs (integration into Jira tickets, Workflow, Automate, etc.): Professional, Organization or Business Thank you in advance for your help.

I can’t seem to edit the text on a file without the font being installed. Given all i need to do is text changes I just want to check I’m not missing something? In Adobe for example if I don’t have the font it just doesn’t look right, but I can still edit the content without it. It feels like it shouldn’t be this hard? I leave how it looks to someone else anyway! 😃 (I’m dealing with the font issue separately, and that’s partly an issue with installing software being controlled by my company, so that’s not my question!) Thanks

Hey, I have developed and published several plugins and widget with my organization account. I will leave my company, and I need to transfer the ownership of some plugins and widget to my private account, because there will be no one who will maintain them after I left. How can I achieve that?

I have set a rectangles constraint to ‘right’. Now i want to edit the x position of the rectangle from the right side, but the input field for ‘position x’ always reflects the x position from the left side. Is this a bug? Or is there another way to position the rectangle i.e. exactly “10px from the right side of the parent frame”?

Hi everyone. I’m trying to create a UI where the bottom navbar disappear while scrolling down and then appear after scrolling up. Need help.

Hello Figma Team, I’ve encountered a potential bug when using the background blur effect in my project. Here’s a brief description of the issue: Issue: When applying a background blur effect on a rectangle (with specific blur settings), the effect doesn’t appear as expected when layered with other elements, such as a button. Steps to Reproduce: Create a frame for an iPhone 16 Pro Max. Insert an image as the background. Add a rectangle with the following properties: Fill: #000000 20%, Effect: Background Blur (200). Add another rectangle on top for a button with Fill: #333333 20%, Effect: Background Blur (20). The first rectangle (with a stronger blur effect) does not display correctly once the second rectangle (button) is added above it. Expected Behavior: The background blur effect should remain visible and function as intended, with the first rectangle’s blur effect still visible behind the button. Actual Behavior: The blur effect of the first rectangle is no longer visible, and

Hi, I am having the following issue with Figma’s connection with Jira this started happening since the last update. Every time I try to connect a design it gives the following alert: I can only add the designs on the comments but not on the ticket itself.

Hi all. I am using the new variables modes for light and dark mode. When I switch my designs to dark mode, it all looks great until I click on the prototype present. On the prototype, some of my components are showing up as still in light mode even though on the figma file they appear to be in dark mode.
