Hello, I submitted my application for the Figma community quite some time ago. Can anyone assist me in getting my account approved? @Josh @christopherdeane

Я думала, что удаляю просто команду, вытащила из нее все проекты, которые в ней были, и удалила команду. А потом поняла, что не могу найти ни один другой проект, который за год создала в фигме. Я восстановила команду, но проекты не могу ни найти, ни восстановить. Как их вернуть? Никто не знает? Однажды мне удалось спасти файлы из истории, но как восстановить все удаленные файлы - это к кому надо обращаться? Там такие мастерписы были(

Hi, I am learning Figma by ‘Reverse Engineering’ an app I am creating. It is a fairly simple app with a navigation bar and a content screen which changes according to the selection made in the navigation. In Figma I have created a screen with nested frames. One of the frames, the navigation, contains buttons which will have interactions that take you to the relevant content screen (frame). Trigger is On Click Action is Open Overlay Overlay is ‘the relevant frame depending on which button is clicked’ Position is Manual Animation is Instant This works fine for the first button you click. After that there are no interactions, clicking another button in the navigation does nothing and there is no change in cursor when over a button. I would have expected that I could continue to click buttons to change the content frame. Is this by design or am I missing something?

Hi! I’m having issues enabling some of Inter and Inter Display open-type features in Figma (I’m currently using version 4, not the Google Fonts version). For example, discretionary ligatures only seem to work on Inter Display, not Inter, and I can’t find a way to enable round quotes and commas (ss03 option doesn’t show up in the type settings details and ss04, which refers to square quotes, only shows on Inter Display, when it should be available for Inter as well). Some character variants like compact t’s and f’s are also not showing up in the type settings. Is this normal?! Why am I not seeing all of the open-type features that these typefaces have to offer? Can anyone help? Thanks 🙂

I accidentaly permanently deleted an important file. Can you help to restore the file please!

Hi! I have a component library in Figma shared across projects. I’ve updated the “Header” component and updated files that used this library. Some of the titles in the header component, for unknown reasons, shifted to the right. However, if I click on them, they immediately take the correct position. If my colleague opens the same file and frame, it’s still shifted to the right for her. Could you help us understand why this might be happening and what we can do to resolve it? Thank you! How it looks shifted: How it changes the moment I click on the component:

I want to create a profile picture selection screen that changes the picture at the top of the screen when you click one of the bottom ones, how do I do it?

I am new to Figma and am trying to figure out the software as I create a mobile app prototype. This is not a paid project - this is a learning situation. But now I’m stuck. I am attempting to do two different things: create an accordion list with corresponding icons on the left of the headings and a toggle switch to the right of each heading - but left of the up arrow (open button). Once that has been accomplished, I need to insert this masterpiece into my user settings screen frame and make it all work smoothly. What is stumping me is the auto layout feature. I’ve been trying for two days—trial and error—to customize the accordion list (attribution: Pixel Happy) and have the list working, but I cannot figure out how to insert the icons and toggle switches without messing up the layout/functionality. Animate a nav bar—I have designed the icons and background, but when I try to make it all come together, something goes wrong with the interaction. I am on a time crunch, with only a f

Hi, filled out the form for education access and created and account through that process. However, my account is limited and still states “Free.” Is this how it is supposed to work?

Attempting to import a 17MB DNG image (via drag and drop) and just getting the 'Failed to import…Format not recognized or failed to convert). Anyone know the cause of this? I was under the impression that Figma would just proportionally scale it down. Thanks

Hello, I’m a subscribed user and I was working on more than 10 projects. Now I opened the Figma and unfortunately I can’t reach my projects at all. Please help me find them. Thank you.

We have three users feedback same error, what does it mean? How to fix it?

Please i need to access to the UI3

Hi community! I’m trying to log in to an account, and Figma sends a link to a mail I can’t access, because no longer exists. Has this happened to anyone before? Is there a way Figma can send the link to a funtioning mail? Thanks!!

I’m not sure if this is possible but I couldn’t find a way to open up the presentation link to clients without them needing an account. I think I saw someone else request the ability to export to PPT, that would solve this potential issue too. It’s a shame bc while this is a great tool, as of now my team cannot continue to use it because of these limitations.

Up until a day ago, I was able to preview multiple mobile device frames when prototyping simply by changing the device name at the bottom of the preview. Now, it is only allowing me to see “Android Small”. Before, I was able to select different device sizes at the bottom, like “Android Large”, “iPhone 15”, etc. Hopefully I did something wrong as this feature was incredible to use.

As I further upskill in UX Design I’m conducting a case study on a grocery app designed to simplify shopping for busy professionals. It’s a comprehensive tool for meal planning, recipe inspiration, budget-conscious options, and sustainability purchasing. So far, I’ve run cognitive walkthroughs with 8 participants, which provided insights. Now, I’m moving to the heuristic review phase and looking for expert opinions to help evaluate the app’s usability. Some Notes: Please refer to Frustrations and Goals on the attached images. First card of majority of forms only works. If you’re experienced in UX design or usability testing, I’d really appreciate your input! here’s the Figma prototype link: https://www.figma.com/proto/XU9468PyRoGgYvobTsBKBr/Case-study-1?page-id=0%3A1&node-id=65-135&node-type=canvas&viewport=417%2C246%2C0.04&t=852nwGmNqPBn5Kro-1&scaling=scale-down&content-scaling=fixed&starting-point-node-id=65%3A135 and here’s the GForms link after testing

Hello all. I am new to Figma, and have not had any training on it, I am just learning on my own. I have searched the help topics, and found a YouTube tutorial, (but it seems to be from the old UI), and I cannot find if I am able to import a gif or a video? Can anyone help me? I apologize if this has already been addressed and I missed it in my searching.

Hi all, I’m trying to set up variables and test light/dark mode, but I can’t find the layer panel on the right, so I can’t switch modes. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I fetched styles with restful API and found there is only text style name but no properties: I also fetched and searched the whole json of the file which is about 200MB and can not found those properties. Update: After doing a few searchs in the Figma forum I found that I can get style properties with 'v1/files/{file_key}/nodes?ids=<id1,id2,…idn>`, where id is the node_id
