Is there a way to control plugin access permissions for users in my enterprise workspace? Since my plugin is still in the beta stage, I don’t want all enterprise users to be able to use it before the official rollout.

Hi, since a couple of weeks Figma is not working properly, it’s too slow, every click is painfully slow, and it happens all over my team worldwide, on Mac iOS or in windows, VPN or no VPN, we deleted cache and Desktop profiles as indicated here in the forums and still too slow, please advise.

Since the update, can no longer define the height and dimensions of shapes, as the text field is now a dropdown. It’s not always possible to resize manually.Is there a work around for this?

When I select an element and create a group or apply the Auto Layout, the rotation property is set to 180 degrees. This occurs whether I select a single element or multiple elements. Has anyone else experienced something similar? I searched the forum but couldn’t find any posts about this issue. this is normal this is group this is auto layout

What size would I make at Frame for the iPhone 15 Plus? I’m not seeing in the preset list.

I can’t move multiply dots using right the panel in edit mode. When i try to do this the whole vector moves . But i still can move single dots. In the latest versions this was possible, I will be glad if you fix it. P.s. i would like to attach video, but i am a new user, so i don’t have access to uploads files

I’m a part of a large (~2,000-member) enterprise license in Figma. I was just added to Figma’s UI3 and AI beta, and I’m receiving this message when I open the Actions panel saying I’m “not a member” of my organization and therefore cannot access AI features. It isn’t saying the organization has disabled AI features, but that I’m not a part of the organization at all (which I definitely am). I double-checked my account info, and I’m 100% a part of the organization with full design seat access. Oddly enough, Figma Slides’ “Adjust tone” AI feature is accessible to me, but no AI features are available in my design files.

Yesterday showed new AI feature in my Figma and i worked but today not showing new AI feature, I tried click on previous UI and New UI but still not showing.

Hello! Please help! After the update on October 10, both the desktop application and the browser began to slow down very much. Screens are freeze. MacOS Big Sure, 16 GB memory, Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB. Tell me please what is the reason?

Hi, Im struggling to find a way to connect a Local Variable Boolean I have made to a component. As I want my sort by Dropdown Categories to make some items visible and some items not when clicked. Attached images of the files to help!

I have a wide design (horizontal scrolling) so I’m trying to get my prototype to automatically fill the browser window height, but the only options Figma gives me are to “fit width” or “fill screen”… both of which shows the entire long design, which makes the content too small. Is there no option to fit height, to allow horizontal scrolling?

I don’t know if there’s a bug or if I’m just being stupid, but I’ve created some components to act as buttons. The components are: Email and Password, both of which have variants (default state, hover, and pressed). When the user hovers over a button, it changes its state from default to hover (adds a shadow), and when the user clicks on the button, it changes the state from hover to pressed (adds an inner shadow). It also changes their value from false to true (this value ONLY CHANGES if the user clicks on the button). I did this on the Log In screen and added a condition to check if the values for Email and Password are true. If they are, then it proceeds to the HOME screen; if not, an overlay pops up with a message. For some reason, this works halfway: sometimes it works fine, and other times I have to reset the prototype. Anyway, I’ve added THE EXACT SAME LOGIC to other components that I created from scratch, and they just won’t work. They are literally the same type of buttons but

I have set up Collection for 100+ variables. I want to export it, so I can use it elsewhere (I just need this specific collection, not the other collections nor the components within this file, so sharing the library wouldn’t solve my case). However, when starting import/export plugins, I seem to get the following error. I guess I have a faulty ghost variable in there somewhere. Is there a way to locate it without having to redo the entire library?

We’re seeing a difference in how font looks in Figma, and how they appear in the browser. The font size on the site was a lot bolder visually, despite being the exact same size, weight and the exact same font file. It feels very misleading and I’m not sure if maybe this was just an isolated experience because of the font we used. Attaching the screenshot of comparison Font – Grosa, type – woff2 Did anyone else experience this? What could be the issue here? Edited: Added few more Images for better visibility of difference in typography.

Hi, I have the font “Noto Sans” installed on my computer, specifically the Regular, Bold, Italic, and Italic Bold styles. I also have some text styles set up in my library. Additionally, I selected the “Installed by you” option in my design. My question is: when I use the hotkey Command + B to change the text style from Regular to Bold without breaking it, I always get Display Bold instead of Bold. Can anyone help or share their experience? Thank you!

I have noticed that you can resize a “SHAPE_WITH_TEXT” node on a single axis but all other components can only be “scaled” on resize. How can I make a FigJam component that’s able to resize on a single axis? instead of having to type spaces and empty lines into a text layer to push the hugging auto-layout, FYI, the component I made is able to resize on a single axis in the design file and behaves perfectly.

Hi community, I’m building a Figma plugin that parses React code and returns what components are used. I’m using some Babel functions by importing like: import { parse } from '@babel/parser'; import traverse from '@babel/traverse'; Although I don’t see any errors on my VS code, when I run the plugin I get an error on the console of Figma saying “SyntaxError: possible import expression rejected around line 1”. Could anyone help me figure out the solution? TIA

Hi guys, Is it possible to export Figma files as SVG via the API without having the text converted into vector outlines? I’m looking for a way to retain text as editable elements in the exported SVG. Thank you in advance!

I know that Organization plan allows to disable public link sharing in entire Organization. I’m in Professional plan and I would like to quickly identify projects that are shared publicly („Anyone with the link”). Is there any way to see such sharing options in the list view of all projects? Or maybe some option to export such list? Thanks in advance for your support.

After publishing a Slides template to my organization, the slide Style selector seems to be disabled and none of my styles are available to use. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is there a workaround?

Hello everyone, Hope you’re all doing well. I’m having a little problem with the tooltip component in my slider component. Slider is not an auto-layout, used constraints for it to scale in width accordingly. The container that houses the Thumb and Tooltip is an auto-layout. Essentially the tooltip is hanging outside the parent frame (as I don’t want the other element below it to change position based on the tooltip size), but the tooltip is showing up behind the element layers underneath it, even though the Slider component is above these element layers in the frame. I would like the tooltip to show above the Element layer - any idea how to do this please? Is it a Z-index problem? Added images below to highlight the problem. Any help is hugely appreciated, thank you kindly.

Hi guys! I open my Figma desktop app and I got this warning message: “Limited access: To create new files, switch to a plan where you’re a full member”. And all my favourites are gone and also the recent files. I have a education plan and always had full access. But the strangest thing is that, if I use Figma in my browser, everything looks normal. I’m using a MacOs with everything updated. Also I installed the latest version of the desktop app. Does anyone else has this issue? Thank you Cheers!

Hey everyone, Not sure if this is a bug but I can’t figure out why this is happening. I have a basic component that requires a closed and open state, but also a hover state for the entire panel. I have created an icon that is pulled from an extensive local library. I have checked the layer names and have even recreated the component on an external document making sure I do not change the layer names and presto it still happens. As in the screenshots you can see that the icon itself changes colour when interacting with said component. Any and all help would be greatly received.

Hi I’ m trying to demonstrate a video overlay for a work project however weirdly I get a small amount of empty space on the frame. This isn’t there if I just place the video directly onto the object I want it to go on. For example the video is 574x322px. I imported it onto the canvas then the Framed the selection - clipped the frame to contents. So when I manually place the overlay I get a pixel of space in the container how do I fix this? See attached. Am I missing something? Thanks Alan

I recently open up an old project to find that Figma have a new layout. First of its not better IMO, its just different, on top of that Figma just made hundreds of hours of YouTube content for people to use there product obsolete. There is a lot I can’t do anymore. Not able to delete layers that are second in a hierarchy using a key or right-click. I can’t find a button for creating components or variants anymore, (you can right-click) you can’t drag-drop one layer into another in the viewport. you have to do in manually you can’t create bool variables anymore, you can create them but they do not show up if you select a single version (button) The List goes on. I get that developing programs generate bugs, but this was obviously not ready to be shipped and I now need to look elsewhere because I need to get shit done. End of rant
