I’ve designed a motorcycle entirely from vectors shapes and to get both side symetrical I created a component for the left half of the content and then duplicated it and flipped it horizontally to create the other half. Now I want to merge the two sides together into a single shape. Some shapes have a stroke which is creating an unwanted line down the middle. I have duplicated both sides of the design and detached them from the original component and I am going object by object trying to combine the two seperate sides of each into a single vector. The difficulty I’m having is that when I delete the lines that sit between the two shapes, the fills on both are deleted. Some fills have taken time to get right and include a base colour and one or more gradients. I have tried adding new joining lines between the two sides and then deleting the ones that are now unecessary but the fills always vanish. Below example shows two shapes that have been flattened into one. I have connected them w

Collaborating with designers who have already obtained licenses from other teams is becoming even more challenging; now, libraries are not allowed to share privately across teams. Just want to get advice on how to make cross-team collaboration more smoothly? (Assuming buying additional licenses under our account is not the only option)

Hi there! I’m facing an issue while working for a cliente. We are currently working on our Figma (org) and they have their own Figma (org). We are using a public design system that is publishing among the communities resources. The library is both published on our org and their too. The project is closing so we are trying to transfer everything to them. At first we are trying with the “send a copy” feature. They correctly receive the workspace and looks like all the components are able the relink to the library in their org, except for some of them that Figma shows as “local components” (we didn’t use any). We can’t make it work and don’t know what’s actually happening. Every kind of support is appreciated! Thanks, Danny

Hello, I am a student from Kazakhstan and my place of study does not issue Figma. I am studying software development and I really need Figma.

Imported files are taking up too much of the memory, so is there a way to find which component is causing the issue? Is there a way to remove the imported status of a component and convert the imported component into a native component to that file to avoid the memory issue?

Hello Figma Community Team, I need assistance with my embedded Figma prototype on mobile via Framer. While the mobile version appears fine when viewed on the Framer canvas, it looks cropped when accessed through my published page at Natasya Gunawan Portfolio. Additionally, I noticed that the iPhone 15 Max is not included in the prototype. On desktop, everything appears to be working perfectly, so I’m unsure what’s causing the issue. I would greatly appreciate your help with resolving this.

I have a 3 page interactive instagram “drag on” carousel. I don’t know how to export it. I created an 1080x1080 p interactive carousel and want to export it and post on instagram. So that when someone swipes left or right manually, the interactions work live. But I am unable to export it as 1 single file. I don’t want a mp4 or GIF. I want a file that i can post but the interaction must work only when people drag it as a carousel on instagram. Can someone help? Is there any plugin for downloading the Flow directly to system in 1 single file that is compatible with instagram?

I know this isn’t exactly what Figma was made for, but I created a scrolling carousel of images by creating a component and adding an interaction in the prototype menu. I’d like to use it for social media, but can’t export it as .mp4 or .mov to do so. Is there a plugin or workaround that’s not just screen recording (really diminishes the quality) to export a frame that contains an animation as video?

I know there are variables in Figma Slide. We can create color, string variables in the file, by picking them from existing layers or areas. However we cannot see any panel like this Local variable section in a normal Figma design file. I wonder if it is in progress of adding this same feature in Figma to Figma Slide or, you just forgot to do it. Or may you have some reasons to eliminate this helpful feature from Slides?

hello eveyone, I have creating a plugin similar to Autoflow, Currently I facing the problem on the logic for determining the start and end points is incorrect If I select two frames, the stroke caps sometimes flip because of their positions. The connector doesn’t consistently follow the rule: **First frame = Round Cap, Second frame = Arrow Cap What I want? The first selected frame should always have the round cap, The second selected frame should always have the arrow cap, This should remain consistent regardless of the frame positions, sides, or canvas layout. import { showUI, on, emit } from '@create-figma-plugin/utilities'; type Side = "top" | "right" | "bottom" | "left"; type Point = { x: number; y: number }; let frameA: FrameNode; let frameB: FrameNode; let isDrawingEnabled = true; // Controls whether to draw connectors let trackedFrames: { frameA: FrameNode; frameB: FrameNode; lastBoundsA: Rect; lastBoundsB: Rect; sideA: Side; sideB: Side }[] = []; interface ConnectorCach
