Has anyone been able to prototype a frame or object that follows the cursor on the page? I am wanting to have a frame be stuck to my cursor. So as I move it around the page, the frame follows. Thanks in advanced!

User case: Simple button that uses an icon of color, which I’d like to keep after swapping it with another icon. It’s very common use case and I have no idea how to achieve. Currently I’m messing up my designs by re-applying color in each and every instance in each and every design after each and every swap. Design System loses it’s value if designs are not set up to follow it. So I really would like to know this.

our designer transfered the project she made to our team she’s not the owner anymore (she’s not even listed on the file anymore) we upgraded to get the DEV functionality but we are still told that we have to ask her to upgrade

I am currently working on a project using a Figma file that is owned by our company. The file owner is our CEO, but I am unsure of the specific email address associated with the owner’s Figma account. For project-related purposes, I need to confirm the email ID linked to the file.Could you please guide me on how to retrieve or view the email address of the file owner in Figma?

I was working on my private Figma document, and when I accessed it, a random user named ‘Nando Moura’ was logged into the document. When I searched for the user, there is no history as attachedImgBB

Hello there! So I am on a MacBook Pro/ macOS. Sometimes in my workflow I will click into Fill when wanting to replace and image. There is an “Upload from Computer” button there. Same shortcut is ccmd+shift+K. The default finder folder I am taken to from there is one of my very first projects on Figma. Is there any where to change this default path on macOS? Thanks in advance!

Hi, the font properties aren’t showing in the design panel. Is there a way to edit text in Figma?

Dear Figma Support Team, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to inquire about a billing discrepancy I have noticed regarding my Figma Professional Team Plan subscription. I initially subscribed to the plan with monthly payments starting on July 22, 2024. In July, I was charged KRW 23,404 (FIGMA MONTHLY); however, in August, I was charged KRW 45,266 (FIGMA MONTHLY), and in September, I was charged KRW 45,032 (FIGMA MONTHLY). I have not invited any additional team members, and I am the only person using the plan. I would like to understand why there is a significant difference in the amounts charged between July and the subsequent months, as the charges for August and September are nearly double. Could you kindly provide clarification on the reason for this price increase? I appreciate your assistance and look forward to your prompt response.

Hello, I’ve been using Figma for about two months, I payed 15$ for one seat in August - I specifically checked to pay only for myself and not for other 3 people in my team, but today i was charged 60$ for everyone, I wasn’t notified when I made my previous payment or asked if I want to pay for other people. 60$ is a lot of money and I would like to request a refund, can someone from Support Team help me please?

I just created a new acc and realized i have new UI there. Why I can’t have it on my main account with payment subscription and more than 5 years of working?

Hi, yesterday I started getting some weird bug in Figma so I’m wondering if anyone else has this problem. When I go to change the property on the component, I get two dropdowns and both of them do not work. Instead of only the right dropdown being shown to me, as usual, now the same one is shown to me on the top left as well. The same dropdown menu is in two places. The one on the top left is clearly a bug. The problem is not only visual, both dropdowns are not clickable, and there is no change in the component. And basically, I’m now stuck because I can’t update a component. The problem occurs in the Figma application and in the browser. And its same for Windows/Mac.

We have a Figma plugin where we can drag&drop images from the plugin to the Figma canva, and everything works fine on it, but on Windows the ‘disallow’ icon always appears as soon as we start dragging the icon into the Figma canva. If I drop the image, everything works fine, but the fact that the ‘disallow’ icon appears is super misleading. On macOs, this icon doesn’t appear. This is the example I’m using: plugin-samples/icon-drag-and-drop at master · figma/plugin-samples · GitHub What can I do to stop this behavior?

I’ve tried searching for this on the forum. But can’t seem to find exactly my problem. As shown in the title. The dropdown for properties only shows my Default. Here’s a picture: Can anyone see what I’ve done wrong to not get the other two options to prototype it? Thanks…

Hey there, I’m working on drag-and-drop functionality for my icon library plugin Phosphor Icons, and thanks to an excellent demo from jackiecorn on GitHub, it’s working beautifully. But there are a few pain points I was hoping the Figma developers could address: In order to compute the canvas position of a dropped element, you have to do some hand-wavy math to figure out if the UI (sidebars and toolbars) are visible, and factor that in to your insertion coordinates. It would be super helpful if the API exposed a way to determine whether the UI was visible, and if so, what size they are. Or even better, a translation of plugin coordinate-space to canvas coordinate-space. The canvas does not appear to accept drop events from drag initiated in a plugin window (drop is handled through the Figma API, but the cursor always appears as not-allowed). It would improve the discoverability for plugin users if it could appear as a copy or move cursor: Thanks for all the work you all put

By default, when I present in Figma slides, the main presentation appears on my laptop screen and the presenter notes appear on my secondary monitor. I’d actually like to swap this around so my presenter notes go on my laptop screen and the main presentation goes on my secondary screen. This is so I can always stare at the presenter’s notes (that also includes the slides as well) while always appearing to look at the camera rather than look above me at my presenter’s notes.

Hi community, I need your help fixing a component / generally just wrapping my head around auto-layout. For some reason it just does not make a lot of sense to me so I stumble in to getting the interactions I need from autolayout. 😅 In this component, I want the container of the “card” to hug so that when the bottom row (where it starts with “john smith”) of information is hidden, the card hugs up to the next level of visible information. I’d also like the middle row of the data (the Lorem ipsum column of text) to push the card down regardless of the bottom text area). What do I need to do in order to fix either of these interactions? Attached is what I have so far. Thank you in advance!!

on a desktop frame i have a 12 row grid system when i center align my content , then go to present mode it offsets all me content and isn’t centered

if I have upgraded my account to professional and after a month stop using the professional account and get back to free, do I lose my projects that were built in the professional account?

I’ve been struggling with this for a while. I’m working on a chart where I want to use a toggle to switch between different views (e.g., Days, Weeks, Months). I created three different chart variants called LineDays3, LineWeeks3, and LineMonths3. In each chart variant, I added an action that changes a variable when clicked (as shown in the images below). LineDays3: LineWeeks3: LineMonths3: The prototype only works on the first click. For example, if the default view is LineDays3, it works when I click on either Weeks or Months. However, after that first action, the prototype stops working. I’m not sure what the issue is. 😢

Hello there! When I export my project as .fig file and then import it back in Figma, the thumbnail is gone. Is this a bug?

Hello my color almost look like CMYK & not like RVB colors, someone know how can I solve this? would be awesome thank you so much !!

It’s just a normal and simple tab with “Change to” interaction. It never happened to me before, is it a bug from Figma?

Hi everyone, not sure if you’re getting the same issue but recently the ‘Present’ tab in Figma Desktop has a bug. When you create a standard desktop layout and then view the layout by selecting the ‘Present’ mode you will see white borders on the left and right hand sides. So in effective the layout is not reaching 100% of the screen as it should do. To view any desktop layout design where it fills the screen in ‘Present’ mode you need to change the width from 1440px to 1470px. Figma has not fixed this issue in 6 months. Just be aware. Quite lousy of the software team not to have fixed this after I’ve contacted them 9 times with no reply. Thanks everyone, hope it helps.

Hi, I’ve seen that this has happened to a couple of people, and I was shocked to see that instead of being charged $15 for my monthly seat, I was charged for 7 seats (that’s $120+ USD). I really need a refund since I did not authorize these extra charges, and right now I can’t afford this. I need help from support. I have already requested a refund, and my ticket is currently pending. Has anyone with this issue been able to successfully file for a refund? Any advice or assistance from the community would be greatly appreciated! Thank you
