Smart animate input field label

I want to animate the input field label with smart animate. Smart animate, however, does this weird transition. I want the transition to be smooth. Any ideas how I could achieve this? I watched tutorials on youtube, double checked my components… I can’t figure out why the transition is behaving like this. Thank you! Link to Figma Prototype

Plugin API: additional documentation or examples for node.setReactionsAsync()?

I’m not a developer, but can generally hack together some javascript after enough google searches. For some reason I cannot get a plugin to create new prototype interactions. Are there other resources, examples, or documentation about this topic beyond the page linked below in the API docs? figma.com

Problems with local variables

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to you in a state of great urgency regarding a serious issue that I have encountered on your platform. I have recently come across a bug in your system that has caused me significant inconvenience and frustration. I have two file libraries here, one that provides only color tokens, the other that provides components, the library that contains components references the library of color tokens, I set local variables in the token library and let the component library reference it, but after both libraries are updated, There are still places that need to be manually updated, which will cause most designers to not know what is the latest, and provide the wrong solution to the R&D engineers I understand that bugs can sometimes occur in software, but this particular issue has greatly impacted my ability to use your platform effectively. It has caused me to lose valuable time and resources, and I am extremely disappointed in the quality of service that I have r

Сбрасываются стили текста

Слетают шрифтовые стили при активной работе с текстовыми элементами. (Шрифты установлены на компьютер, проблема актуальна даже при использовании предустановленных в Figma) Описание проблемы: создаю стиль шрифта создаю компонент применяю стиль шрифта в компоненте использую дочерний компонент при дальнейшей работе с текстом (печатаю/вставляю другую информацию) шрифтовой стиль слетает и межбуквенное расстояние меняется в прогрессии (то есть после каждой буквы расстояние становится больше и больше) В итоге получается межбуквенный интервал mixed, приходится постоянно сбрасывать изменения стиля текста При повторном касании проблема повторяется

Variable updates do not work on Ant For Figma

Hi, I am having an issue with updating color variables on the design system I am using. It is called “Ant for Figma” and has thousands of components in it. The problem is, when I adjust the primitive colors, it should automatically update the aliases and component variables as well. However, when I check the components, I can see that they still have the old colors in them although the variables list seem to be updated properly… This is super frustrating because I need to make seamless adjustments in order to properly theme the design system and hand over to the devs. Can someone please help?

Is it possible to get information about nested instances from the plugin API?

I’m looking to get data about nested instances in components for a plugin I’m working on. I’d also be keen to know if there’s a Figma plugin developer community I can join too. Thanks!

How come my prototype doesn't start on first screen?

I have created a prototype and have ensured the little blue square is on the first screen, however when I create a link for the prototype it’s not starting on the correct starting place. Is there another reason besides the blue square this would happen? If so, how do you fix it?

Figma for students

I joined a bootcamp and got access to Figma for students, but I dropped out of the course and would like to know how to leave the student Figma since I no longer have any affiliation with the institution. Also, I would like to know if in case I decide to permanently delete my account, does the student Figma also get deleted?

Leader Dots in Figma? Dotted line in text?

I’m trying to create a cocktail menu in Figma and I’ve been instructed to use leader dots between the names and the prices. Is there any way this is automated like in Indesign and Word? I could place the dots myself, but if this is being handed off, I want to make sure that the alignment won’t be messed up if someone is making small changes to prices or names? Drink…€5.00

Examples of responsive designs for Mobile?

I want to make a design that works no matter if person is using iphone pro, plus, android, etc The testers would not be using Figma mirror, just opening link on their phone browser. The url bar can still be there. Have others been successful in doing this? Any links to examples I could open on my phone would be amazing. It seems maybe this is not possible judging by the response to a similar question asked and answered here: FIT to screen prototype on mobile

Challenge with Nested Components

I’m facing a perplexing issue while working with nested components in Figma, particularly related to the behavior of overrides. In my design project, I’ve created a set of nested components to maintain consistency and streamline the design process. However, I’ve noticed that when I apply overrides to certain instances of nested components, the changes don’t propagate as expected across all instances. For instance, I have a primary button component that contains nested components for various states such as hover and active. When I override the text or icon inside the primary button instance, the changes reflect correctly. However, when I try to override the style or content of a nested component within the primary button instance, the overrides seem to be ignored, and the nested component retains its default state. I’ve double-checked the component hierarchy, ensured that all nested components are properly nested within their parent components, and verified that the overrides are correc

Change of frame size did not reflect in the preview mode

Hi. I’m very new to Figma. I decided to change the frame size from android small to iphone 14 pro during my high-fidelity prototyping stage. However, in the preview mode, the screen size is still for android small. Refer to the attached photo references. How do I correct this?

Is instance.mainComponent.key the same as the component.key

Hello. I am able to get the main component key of an instance, but when I get the component key (of the main component from the library). the component key is returning a different value. I’m trying to compare the instance with the library component key to see if they match. ex: (InstanceNode).mainComponent.key vs (ComponentNode).key

What is going on with Styles & Libraries

I’m trying to determine if I’m insane or if the whole library setup is just crazy bad UX. I have followed every instruction and still can’t get styles to show up. The library I need shows up as linked, but none are available in the “styles & libraries” pop-up. Doesn’t show it as a selectable library. None of the individual styles show up. I can’t understand who this set-up was meant to be better for.

I can do this with variables, but if I click the checkbox again it keeps adding to the total. How can I set it so that when I uncheck the checkbox the number is subtracted from the total?

Please help me understand dev mode pricing plan

Hello everyone 👋🏽 As a developer I wanted to upgrade to Figma’s Pro Plan so I can access to Dev Mode but as I understand I have to pay for this for every team I’m part of? 😱 Is this correct? This would be €15/mo for each teams? I mean, as a freelance developer I’m part of several teams at the same time, I don’t see it possible for me to upgrade for every project I’m currently working on. 😢 Am I missing something? Thanks for your help 🙏

How to create a scrolling section over a fixed section?

Hi! I’m new to Figma & design - but trying to create an interaction on a prototype which involves two sections on one frame. One section would be fixed and is the top part of the frame, whilst the second section would allow me to scroll over the first section. A reference of the same interaction can be found here on mobile view: [The Classic Check Cashmere Scarf in Mid Camel | Burberry® Official] Sadly when I fix position when scrolling of the the top section of the frame, and set the second section to vertical scrolling it will scroll underneath the top section which is fixed on scroll. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
