Bug Report: Scrolling Issue in Frames Menu Issue: The last item in the frames menu is not functioning properly, making it unselectable or not appearing when attempting to scroll through the available device frames. Steps to Reproduce: Open the frames menu in Figma. Scroll through the list of available device frames. Attempt to select the last item in the list. Actual Behavior: The last item does not appear, potentially due to insufficient spacing or a layout issue that affects scrolling functionality. Suggested Fix: Adjust the auto layout settings for the frames menu to provide extra spacing or padding. This will ensure that all items, including the last one, are fully accessible when scrolling.

Hello friends when i select text to add text property or icon to add Boolean property those those properties are missing i can not find in the right side bar menu please help me thank you.

Hi! I have a Dell UP2716D calibrated monitor, color profile 6500K. OS Windows 10. In Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator sRGB and Adobe RGB work correctly. In the browser, Chrome Figma also works correctly and shows sRGB. But in a desktop application, color management does not work. I turn on sRGB or Unmaneget in the settings, but there is no effect. The option to enable SRGB on the monitor is not suitable. Enhanced color gamut needed. When Figma starts supporting sRGB in a desktop Figma on Windows 10?

I’m looking for a way to dynamically (automatically) adjust component top/bottom padding based on what new component has been added to the top or bottom of that component. So for example, if I stack two different components together, create an autolayout, adjust the padding between them to be 0px since I’d be creating a webpage - I want the bottom padding of the top component to dynamically adjust AND the top padding in the bottom component to automatically update once the 0px in between autolayout is set. Any way to do this Figma? Any plugins that can help?

As of yesterday the bottom tool bar appears when a file is opened and then disappears. I have updated chrome, tried Firefox, tried hide and unhide UI, and hit cmd then /. All with no effect. Any one know the trick? Thanks

I’ve got a bunch of templates that I’d like to share with other creators in my network. However I don’t want to just share the whole Figma file with them. I’d like them to click a button on my website that adds the frame/section to their clipboard and they can open up their own Figma file and paste it directly in there. I can’t seem to find any walkthroughs on this, so I thought here could help.

Made changes in the component library. No matter what I do the file using the components will show the blue dot to update when it should, but selecting update is reverting to an older version. Even if I copy components directly from the library and paste them in, my local file will show they need updating and when I do so they revert to an old version. Causing so many problems.

I remember I accidentally opened the emoji keyboard on Figma for Windows but now I don’t remember how I did it. Can someone lend me a hand on how to do it please?

This is because I’m directly directed to the google SSO page when i type in the email I want to reset the password for How do I work around this ?

We have some funny noises inside of the alpha after exporting in png. Especially visible in gradients when they are open up in Photoshop.

I’ve noticed a change to the Starter tier. I’ve already once shared a prorotype publicly 2 weeks ago, and it worked. Several days later, I locked it to private. Today, for the same prototype, Figma prompts me to move to a paid tier if I want to share it publicly again. Same flow of actions, but this time I get the treatment as if I want to password-protect it → move to Paid. Is this a bug or a silent change to the Starer tier? Regards

Hey all, I’ve noticed this really nice update where Figma has added UI kits as a library that i can now plug into and you can pull in examples from these design system that are editable but also have components in them. I was wondering whether we have the power to publish our own design systems as a UI kit for our teams and create examples? Thanks

Share a frozen state. Can I share a current development status as a prototype with customers? For internal presentations. They should not see the current work.

Hi everyone, I’ve noticed that the variable mode button in Figma’s UI is different when I open IBM’s Carbon Design System. See? It’s a swatch book instead of the hexagon. Why? What am I missing? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m encountering some issues with Figma while working on a slide deck template: When I publish the deck and attempt to use it in a new project, Figma freezes whenever I try to add a slide from the published deck. Additionally, when working within the template deck, if I copy a slide and try to paste it into another deck, the paste operation gets stuck. Has anyone else experienced this? Could there be a specific cause, or is there a workaround to resolve this freezing issue? Thanks in advance for any insights or solutions!

I’m trying to work out how to show 1 of 6 result screens depending on how many correct/incorrect answers in a quiz with 5 questions. What would be the best way to do this? Thanks!

My tools bar is now at the bottom in my Figma. How can i retrieve it back to the top left corner

I’ve been using Figma for several years but suddenly today, I am no longer able to edit my designs. I have to ‘request edit access’ with our administrator (who should be me). Seems like I’ve been hacked but maybe it’s user error. I tried emailing Figma but weirdly they automatically responded and asked me to post here.

With the main component selected I can create all of the properties that I will want instances to have through the Properties Panel as one would expect. Inside of the component when I have a selection of variants that I want to assign a State such as hover, the option to make that selection ceases to exist in the Properties Panel. I can select Boolean properties that I set up on the main component but Variant Properties not so much.

I am new to Figma so I am practicining by uploading emails that I can try to duplicate. However, when I upload the image image that I saved to my computer into Figma, it doesn’t have the laters from the original email. The only layer is the image itself. How can I separate layers from a single image so that I can utilize those images to build out my email in Figma?

I’m working on a UI kit at work (which I unfortunately cannot share) and I am hoping to better understand how to best structure components on Figma so that they do not require significant memory consumption. We are running into problems where our prototypes are loading really slowly and I think this might be because the current way we are building components is very memory intensive. I am hoping to better understand specifics about how Figma loads in components to make better decisions about how to structure the components of the UI Kit. According to a comment in this thread, when you make an instance of a component, Figma loads in the entire variant set of the component. I’m wondering how Figma behaves or loads in components in the following scenarios: If a parent component has a child component with many variants, do all the variants of the child component get loaded in when an instance of the parent component is created? How does Figma load components with an instance swap property

Hi, can we have a Free Starter Team Figma and a paid FigJam Professional on the same account? One-person bootstrapping company. Thanks! 💙

Having trouble to paste Google spreadsheet cells as Stickies in FigJam. They paste as a table. Is this a regression? It used to work. Will I have to rely on Miro to do my work?

Hello, I would like to send a copy of a design from one Figma account to another, basically transferring ownership to the client. Though in the drop-down next to the project name the “Transfer” and “Send a copy” options are greyed out. Does anyone know why these options are not available? Many thanks.
