제 회사 메일로 Education Plan을 사용하지 않은 것으로 기억합니다. 근데 이 메일을 왜 받았는지, 그리고 현재 사용중인 Professional 플랜에 어떤 영향이 있는건지 궁금합니다.

Hi, Reporting a small bug. In FigJam when an object is selected, using the shortcut CMD+L to copy the link to an object, triggers the wrong toast feedback message, which is the message for copying the page link, as if no object were selected. ❌ Page link copied to clipboard Copying the object’s link by right-clicking > Copy link to “object”, triggers the correct toast message. ✅ Copied link to <object/> The correct link is copied, it is just the toast message when using the shortcut CMD+L on an object that is wrong. Copying the link to the red triangle with the shortcut CMD+L Copying the link to the red triangle with the right click > Copy link to shape

Mouse wheels zoom is extremely slow on Figma web ,pls how do I resolve that cause it affecting my mental state

For the past two weeks, my labeled dividers in a Figma file worked perfectly. These dividers were lines with text labels (—Text) that helped me organize the structure of my designs. However, today the labels suddenly disappeared, and the dividers now appear as plain line. When I double-click on a divider, the text label is still there and editable, but it no longer displays on the canvas as it used to. I’ve attached a screenshots showing the current behavior and a video demonstrating how the labeled dividers worked before this issue occurred. Could this be a bug and will it be fixed soon?

I’m getting the following error when trying to access propertyDefinitions of a main component. I’m accessing this main component from an instance node by getMainComponentAsync, awaiting its promise. In the documentation it says that componentPropertyDefinitions property is available for ComponentNode and ComponentSetNode. But when I try to access it I get the following error: in get_componentPropertyDefinitions: Can only get component property definitions of a component set or non-variant component Isn’t a MainComponent a non-variant component? If not, how do I access either a ComponentSet from an InstanceNode or its non-variant component version? I just need to check for variant options of a property to catch errors when matching it against data provided by the user…

Hi y’all, I am experiencing some issues with the Figma mirror app. It will not show images in the prototype. Setup M2 mac, Sonoma Figma desktop app Figma mirror app iphone Troubleshooting I tried Delete cache, didnt work Constrains of the images Reboot apps Check if the images are IN the frame I drives me crazy, maybe because the Sonoma update? I worked before. Thanks in advance 🙂 Simon

I noticed that I stopped getting Figma notifications in Microsoft Teams. Notifications are turned on for the file I’m working on, but I’ve turned off email notifications. Do email notifications need to be on for Figma notifications to work? Any other ideas?

It seems like it appeared in a recent update. I’m referring to “(5)” next to “Tiles/H2 PDP”. Thanks.

Hi, I have a question. I’m planning to buy a Figma Professional Team account. If I create a team and invite my friends to join the team and projects, will they be able to edit with their free accounts? Or do all of them also need to have a Professional Team account? Thanks!

Obviously, the Multi-edit only appears within a component that has variants, but as far as I can tell, these two features are identical in every way. Unless I am missing something, there is no need for both of them.

We store all our Icons in one Figma Library, which gets Icons added to and removed from regularly. Our Developers need an easy way to regularly update their icon set. Perfect for us as Designers and for our Dev’s would be to handle the Icons like Tokens, with continuous naming. What makes this even more difficult is the fact that we Designers often create icon component sets, e.g. heart-solid, heart-stroke… How do you handle this?

Hi, I am wondering if I am doing anything wrong with a text box autolayout. Before when I set Max or Min width, it would respond when I resize the frame. Is there a different setting now? Below is the video link for your viewing

When using the Export function directly from text, the resulting .png file is slightly cutting/cropping the text (both on the bottom and the right-hand side of the resulting .png file.) It is subtle and maybe just 1pm but the resulting file looks like it was badly just badly cropped. The font in question is “Days One”. Can’t share image here for proprietary reasons but wondering if others have run into this issue.

Hi, I work on enterprise software and have been using Figma for about 4 years. I’m looking for best practices around prototyping with components from a library. Example: The design system is a published library The design system contains all the usual things inc. a nav component Work on a new feature is being done in a separate file When prototyping the site or app in the work file using the nav from the design system, I’ve been: wrapping the design system nav in a local component linking nav items to all the pages in the local nav placing instances of the local nav on all the pages tweaking each instance of the local nav so it lights the correct menu item for the page its on This works fine, but there’s lots of spaghetti code. It seems like I’m missing something. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

When hitting the file endpoint, I am getting a 400 error with an error message of Request timeout, try a smaller request. In Figma, I am able to access this file so it isn’t private or anything. Could this be that the file is just too large?

Text has stopped being displayed in all files today. At the same time, everything is in place during playback. Has anyone had such a problem and what can be done?

Corner smoothing in Figma doesn’t seem to work when the radius is 50% or 1/2 the height of the rectangle aka pills or rounded buttons. If you look at Airbnb’s or Apple’s pills, they appear to have a corner smoothing applied. Is there a workaround to get this effect in this scenario or is it something we just need to communicate to engineers when handing off designs?

I created a scrolling marquee but I cant get to slow it down even after setting the duration to 10000. Can anyone pls help? This is urgent. thanks so much!

I created multi layered components in Figma and imported design system in sticker library. However, I cannot snap connector inside these multi-layered component object. However, I have press Cmd+Drag and Drop anywhere I want and it sticks there but when object is expanded due, the location of the connector stays at the same place and not moving with the original placed location.

Hello, I have a project using Figma REST API to get a Figma file and read some of the properties of a component Instance. A component has another instance as a children which is hidden. The hidden instance has a text layer child. A few days ago I was able to read the properties of this specific child but now it seems like it is not returned: the hidden instance has empty array as for the children collection. Is this expected now because this was introduced a couple of days ago and is not documented neither in the REST API docs nor in the changelog. Is there a way I can bypass this? Thanks.

Is currently so annoying when we need to work on text in Figma… We can’t do anchor text like indesign for example If pasting from a document, chatgpt or anything we can’t select to apply the current styles or variables ( needs to be manual ) we can’t even use a google doc to implement the main styles and Figma to convert Can Someone at Figma give more power on the writing part ? Copy Text and Paste applying Figma Font styles + anchor text to split text and continues on the next part should be already here

It’s so discouraging and annoying when working in Figma via web browser (on iPad) and the persistent “Open int the Figma App” it’s recommended when in the first place the Figma app is basically a limited “FILE BROWSER” with ZERO functionality. NO. NO. NO. Please don’t ask me to open my file via an App where my file is basically my productivity go’s down to Zero/Nothing. Now, if the App had full iPad functionality - then we’re talking.

Hi, I observed a weird situation in the Figma Mobile app while playing a prototype, thinking this could be a bug. Anyone could help? Please see in the screenshots an example. What I tried to do: by clicking on the “Name 1” button in the “Name Screen”, assign the value of “Name 1” to a local variable “Bug Typed Name”, then navigate to the “Final Screen” and show the value of the variable “Bug Typed Name” (so, “Name 1”) in a text box. What works well on both Figma desktop app and Figma mobile app (1st scenario): If I pass the variable value from one screen to another “immediately”, like what is shown in the screenshots between the “Name Screen 1” Frame to the “Final Screen 1” Frame, it works correctly on both apps - desktop and mobile. What works correctly only on Figma Desktop app, but DOES NOT work on the mobile app (2nd scenario): If I add couple of “additional” frames between the “Name Screen” and the “Final Screen” frames (see the flow between “Name Screen 2” and “Final Screen 2”

Hello, I’m new to Figma in terms of creating designs and for the life of me I cannot find out how to edit a text label in a component I am using from Material Design 3 assets. See below screenshot. How do you customise text? I’m sure it’s something easy once I know how or I don’t have permission. Apologies if this covered else where. Google and searching didn’t return a simple answer. Thanks.
