Hi,I am asking because it’s really hard to find anything on this - everything on stacking is top / last idea.So is there a way to have initial stacking changed on RWD window resize?And I don’t mean the prototype, but the design phase.I guess even with variables - you can’t differentiate variables on manual window resize of a frame/component? I mean I have a list of features + image and I do it odd/even:text + imageimage + texttext + imageimage + text so when I resize the window, it’s not stacked:textimageimagetexttextimageimagetext(because folding works like that)but instead, just like you can do it in e.g. Bootstrap with one classfor mobile stacking elements exchange positions, so that it’s:textimagetextimagetextimagetextimage? Sorry if there’s something about it but I know Figma has problems on window change features (without setting e.g. “mobile” manually) and most topics are about the obvious stacking ideas.Cheers,

Hello Figma community,I need urgent help regarding a serious issue with my files.Today (24 April 2026, around 11:00 AM PKT), I was transferring all my projects from my Education account to my personal account.Education account: (redacted by the moderator due to PII)Personal account: (redacted by the moderator due to PII)I invited my personal account, transferred ownership of all files, and confirmed that everything was visible in my personal account.After that, I removed the Education account’s access and later deleted the files from the Education account (including permanently clearing the trash).However, after this, all files disappeared from both accounts.Before deletion, I also saw a warning that the files were still linked to an Education plan/workspace.These files include:Internship workPersonal UI/UX projectsPortfolio workThis is very critical for me.Since this happened very recently, I want to ask: Is there any way to recover these files from backend backups or via support esca

I get that I can use “after delay” but if the user sits at the top of the page longer than the delay, when they finally scroll to the object, the animation has already finished. Is there a better way?

Hi,Requesting the name change on organizational level from Nuuday to TDC brands?Can you help us on this 

Hi! I want to add a custom domain name to my Figma Site while on Education plan, currently it something like mywebsite.figma.site and I want to turn it into something like mywebsite.com. I've seen the option available a few months ago but I can't seem to find it anymore. Is it still possible ? Thank you!

Hello, Can someone help me? My collegue has a side bar with variables etc.This is mine: How can i get the other ui? Thanks!

I’ve been playing around with Codex & today I installed the Figma plugin in order to try out some of the new features & skills such as creating a file, creating a design system, etc. Everything went well, I was able to log into my company Figma account and verify that all the skills were present. However, when I attempted to use some of these skills, I was told that I only had read only access.After this, I attempted to troubleshoot by quitting out of both Figma and Codex, uninstalling & reinstalling the plugin, turning on dev mode & enabling the local MCP server inside of Figma (I was using the remote server before), but nothing seems to work. Based on what I see in the instructions, it should theoretically work out of the box, so to speak.Has anybody encountered this problem before, and if so, how did you fix it? Perhaps I’m doing something wrong, or if there’s a flag that needs to be enabled on the administrative side that will let me use these skills? If there isn’t

I’m trying to publish some changes to my site and I keep getting an error message saying “Update attempt not successful” - has anyone else encountered this?

I have a component for form options that on some occasions needs a tooltip. The problem is that if you set the text layer to Hug, the text will not wrap for narrow content areas. And if set to Fill, it pushes the icon component. I really just want it to function like html <p> My text label <span>[icon]<span></p>Because of this issue, designers need to detach the core component just to add a tooltip (and the they use the incorrect icon size and style). Or they are just slapping the icon and moving it over the component just so it ‘looks’ like its at the end of the paragraph. This is frustrating me to no end. Figma is supposed to be a tool to create web interfaces, yet the most basic of web features, inline-block text isn’t possible to accomplish. Is there a hack? 

How do I add the icons I designed to the library in the left sidebar of FigJam?

I'd like to recover it, but when I try to use the deleted account to create a new one with the same email address, I get a "request failed". I deleted my account 6 hours ago. Do I have to wait longer to create it again? I've already tried a different browser and incognito mode, but it doesn't work. Thanks for your help.

Hey everyone,I’ve been exploring raster to vector conversion and realized that the quality of the final vector really depends on the process used.Sometimes auto-trace works okay, but other times the result looks messy with too many points or uneven lines. Manual vectorizing seems cleaner, but it takes more time and skill.I wanted to ask:How do you decide between auto-tracing and manual vectorization? What settings or techniques help get smoother, more accurate paths? How do you handle low-resolution or blurry raster images? Any tips for keeping file sizes small while maintaining quality?

Hello, I was attempting to delete an old project, and accidentally deleted ALL OF MY FIGMA FILES - including an app high-fidelity wireframe design that is meant to go into production May 1. Is there any way these files still exist on the back end somewhere?? I would be more than happy to upgrade!Please help!

I added the Figma MCP Server to mcp.json and tried both the global and workspace configurations. But, it throws the same error every time I try to start the server. I found suggestions online to use the Figma desktop app, ensure Node.js is installed, use a Figma Pro account, and try with a Personal Access Token (PAT). I have confirmed all of these requirements, but the error persists.“Connection state: Error Error sending message to https://mcp.figma.com/mcp: TypeError: fetch failed”{ "servers": { "com.figma.mcp/mcp": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.figma.com/mcp" } }, "inputs": []} 

Hi everyone - hoping someone can help or confirm whether this is expected behaviour.I have a parent component with children (radio option, list item) all set to Fill for horizontal resizing. The parent frame uses auto-layout.What I expect: When I insert an instance from the Assets panel into a frame set to auto-layout, the instance should fill the container — matching the resizing properties I set in the parent component.What actually happens: Instances inserted from the Assets panel come in at a fixed width. I have to manually set each one to "Fill container" every time.                                                                                        The confusing part: If I drag the same component directly from the canvas into the frame, it does fill correctly. So  the behaviour exists — it just doesn't carry over when inserting from Assets.My questions:     1. Is this expected behaviour, or a bug?  2. Has anyone found a workaround to make instances from the Assets panel defaul

Y’all, how can I connect Stripe, so my desktop app made with Figma Make can collect payment? Is it even possible? I have wasted an entire month of credits prompting, time watching videos, and even more time on Code Mentoring sites looking for help to try to figure out how to get this app to accept a payment. I dont want to leave Figma, but I fear this is my only recourse, if I want to collect payment for this app. I am sure, I am missing something but I cannot figure out what/

Hi everyone,I submitted my first Figma plugin for review on March 6th, and its status is still showing as "Under Review." I know Figma generally suggests a 5–10 business day window, but I wanted to check with the developer community here to see if anyone else is experiencing longer-than-usual wait times recently?A few details about the submission: Submission Date: March 6, 2026 Plugin Link: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1611736909703003655/magic-cards I’ve double-checked my email and spam folder to ensure I haven’t missed any clarification requests from the review team, but I haven't received anything yet.Does the review team usually reach out if there’s a delay, or should I just sit tight until the 10-business-day mark? Any advice from seasoned plugin creators would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance,Vipin

EDIT: Slots does keep hug auto layout just not fill. thats the one i want ve started playing with the new Slots feature. it looks quite interesting but ive got quite the glaring issue that wont make it easy to continue using.This is my methodcreate component - fill horizontal hug vertical (lives in a variant component with fix)create another component - fixed horizontal hug verticalframe inside - fill horizontal hug verticalconvert that frame to slotadd the first component as a preferred component/slotWhen i take a instance of the component with the slot inside i go to add a slot preferred component.this gets added but this is a crucial issue - that instance inside the slot does not keep the auto layout “fill” on the horizontal plane. it does for the vertical tho.  this isnt too much of a bother for myself but i have other members of staff that might not do this every time. leading to broken layouts. especially if we start using components that some should have fill and some should hav
