Depending on what action is performed, I want to display different success alerts on the same Homepage: add action = display add successful alert delete action = display delete successful alert I have attached my variables, but they seem incorrect. Thanks!

Hi! I am experiencing some issues with the Figma mirror app. It will not show images in the prototype.

I’ve designed my CV using Figma, added contact details and turned them into links using “Interactions” under “Prototype” pane, but, when exporting only SOME of them are actually being embedded. For some reason only my own website and mailto: tel: type of links are working, others (github, linkedin, behance and etc) are simply gone. I’ve found some other people complaining about this very issue since 2022 and there’s still not a single solution or workaround for it.

Hello Figma Team, I hope this message finds you well. I noticed that the new UI update has been rolled out to everyone, but unfortunately, my Figma account has not yet received the update. I am very eager to test it out and provide feedback, as I believe it could greatly enhance my workflow. Could you please assist me in gaining access to this update? I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to explore and contribute my insights. Thank you so much for your time and support!

Hello, i am trying to build a desing system in Figma and i started to go deeper with the vs code plugin, i found the code connect feature and i was about to use it but it is only available for organization and enterprise plans, is there any chance that professional accounts could have this feature, as a solo developer i’d like to try it for my actual project and i think it makes sense for projects that are just starting to have this feature and don’t wait until there are a bunch of developers and a lot of complexity to change to an organization plan to have this feature. Thanks for your attention!

Hi guys, Figma is running fine on firefox but panning and scrolling is very janky. I searched on the web for any similar issues… didnt find any. https://cdn.arinji.com/u/PvV5Ez.mp4 I tried the following Enable and Disable hardware acceleration Remove browser cache On chrome its not so janky… but i use firefox normally. Firefox Version: 133.0b5 (64-bit) Developer Edition Thanks in advance.

Hi, I’m new here. I submitted a Figma plugin 8 days ago, and it’s still under review, even though they usually approve it within one business day. Is anyone else experiencing delays with their review? I checked for new plugins, and it seems none have been added in the past week. Thanks!

Hello! I was wondering what do i have to do so that when a new menu item is clicked, it takes on the active state, while the previously active item resets to its default state. Thank you!

Hello! Need some help solving this issue. Every time the app restarts, I need to go in an turn off ligatures for every new text field I create. It’s SUPER annoying. I NEVER want my s’s and t’s to be connected, but for some reason the default setting is that they are. How do I change this??

When this new feature came out it was fantastic! I managed to test it out on one file and it worked great. When I went back in though, I was no longer able to add any new pages and can now not add any new pages to FigJam files. My “Add Page” button is missing from the menu entirely. I can also not right click to duplicate the current page that I’m working on. Seems like a bug but let me know if it’s me.

Figma changed the toolbar to floating over work area. Personally, I hate this… please leave my canvas free. Anyone know how to revert to old toolbar menu?? thanks

Would be great to be able to apply different colors to the strokes. We can apply different width, why no apply different stroke colors? Now I have to next boxes to get the effect.

When you have multiples actions, let’s say onClick. For example, OnClick : Change variable 01 Change variable 02 ScrollTo (section) It’s impossible to select a section that is not in the list. This has been a persistent issue not the be able to reach all the blocs, but we could just drag the link arrow the the desired section (sometimes with more or less success). In the current context, it’s not (to my knowledge) possible to drag that arrow when you have a list of multiple action, making very difficult to use anchors. It still works but you have to set the anchor first, then add the other actions.

I use the Token Studio plugin to manage tokens and themes and it has the ability to create variables from their plugin. Whenever I make changes to the tokens in the plugin, I create the variables. Every variable set I’ve ever made is still in the list and confusing the designers. How do I delete variable modes from this menu? I tried the “detach deleted variables” already.

I seem to have found an issue where whether or not my design is set up as a component is impacting its nested button hover state in prototype mode. I’ve attached a screen recording in which you can see this happening. The top design is set as a component, and the nested button component inside of it is changing widths on hover. The bottom design however is detached and this is not happening. I will note that I did add a min-width to the button component in these examples.

We have a manual sequence to a component in our design system that is sorted, by hand, alphabetically. If I pull an instance of that component inside of that design system file, the list is sorted the same way. If I publish it and use it in any other file, the sorting is off. I’ve tried “Reset all changes”, reloading the file, restarting Figma, and so on. Any idea what’s going on?

Hello, I am reaching out because I am having trouble accessing a file that I created on Figma. I have tried several steps to resolve the issue, but I am still unable to access the file. I have to request access, but it’s my own file?? How do I solve this? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I have a problem with the horizontal scroll of my prototype, it works perfect only if I don’t apply the dropshadow to the cards. I can’t figure out why, can anyone help me? No dropshadow With dropshadow As you can see, the link with dropshadow, horizontal scroll works strange the initial position has a space and also the final… thank you

I notice a strange behaviour in the management of image colour profiles. Some images with a Display P3 colour profile are displayed correctly, while others are converted to sRGB. This is a big problem; I cannot understand the logic with which Figma handles the images.

All of a sudden when I opened Figma, all my projects are gone. Figma looks like fresh without any projects in it and I also got a mail that my mail address started a new Figma, as I’m starting Figma for the first time. Is there anyway to recover it?? It’s important!!

Can the service be configured to be accessible by users from only allowed IP ranges or alternatively through a site to site VPN?

Good morning, I am a teacher at an Italian public school. I work mainly with 13/16 year olds. In the “web and digital economy” course classes we also cover web graphics software. I would also like to teach students Figma. I have loved Figma since the first time I used it and it is perfect, so I was wondering how I can give my students the opportunity to use it without problems. Is it enough to just verify the school? I don’t need to create an organization, but only a student account for a few months, just enough time to learn the main functions of Figma. Thank you very much, Federico

I am using autolyout and variables to expand/contract rows to show and hide multiple (3-7) rows in an table layout. There is considerable lag when clicking on the row to change the variable to open. Is there something I could be doing differently? Is it the fact that there are nested components making this lag so much, and does anyone have a suggestion for another/better way to do this? Thank you in advance! Figma file:Figma – 6 Nov 24
