I’m making a paid Figma plugin, but I am unable to publish the plugin - I’ve received the below notification: May I know how long the seller status check will take? And how will we be notified that it is completed?

Hey, As we have completed our school course, I no longer need the Education plan, and it is now interfering with my work. How can I fully remove it? I tried creating a ticket, but was informed that I don’t have access to the ticket system due to being on the starter plan. Thanks for the help!

Hello everyone! I use the API endpoint “www.api.figma.com/v1/images” to pull images from Figma frames, the way I know what file and what node to pull, is by copying a link to the frame in Figma and then parsing the info, yesterday the link would look like this “www.figma.com/file/…”, today it looks like this “Free Design Tool for Websites, Product Design & More | Figma…”. Was there any change in the URL structure, or is there any other reason why this might happen?

Hello, I recently just graduated from my school and I have lost access to all my files in the school email. Is there a way where I can regain the access to my edu account and forward the files to my personal account?

I am the account administrator and today I created the token with read permission. The link is also correct, but it gives an error (Error when exporting: 403 - {“status”:403,“err”:“Invalid token”})

As an Admin when inviting people in my company to join Figma, I only see a simple invite box but it has no role options. After I invite them, I see they are “pending” but cannot pre-assign them a role. This means after I invite them, they have to send me a second request to upgrade them to contributor. Is there a way I can simply invite them as a contributor to begin with? Or change their role when they are pending? This would save a lot of back and forth and time for them and me.

Hi, Figma is new for me, i’m currently is using free version in Edge browser for my Free version of Figma for my learning i’m currently facing an issue, the cloud icon (i.e. The current document has unsaved changes) is shown when i uploaded an image into my document. i tried to leave the document open in the browser for few hours but the saving still hasn’t happened. if i close the tab in the browser then i can’t load the document again. there is only choice for me to remove the image from the document. Note: i can’t use desktop version because my organization not let me install anything into my computer (i.e. i don’t have admin permission). if i can’t upload any image then i can’t move on my learning for HiFi design. how i can resolve this issue ?Please search for existing topics before posting!

Hello, I’m currently working on implementing the site layout grid in Figma. I have a question regarding layout grids for desktop sizes. Instead of setting the type to center, is it possible to set the type to stretch and apply an 80px margin? Additionally, what are the most commonly used frame sizes for desktop and mobile layouts?

I’ve been having an issue where every time I click on a text box, it changes the font slightly and makes it larger. My coworker was having this problem and we were able to uninstall the font from her computer. This fix isn’t working for me since I don’t have it downloaded anywhere on my machine.

Hi all! I’m fairly new to Figma, and I’m trying to create a daily agenda for an upcoming team event. Is there any way to have a real time tracker as indicated by the dotted red line? Ideally, I’d be doing this for Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of that week. Please let me know if you have any questions, thank you!

Hi there, I don’t know why the page won’t load and goes blank. I just want to share my portfolio with others. I am on the server site. Please help.

I’m porting an existing design system to Figma, and I’m wondering, what are the best practices in 2024 for building components with dynamic children? For example, a dropdown menu where one instance has options A, B, C, and another instance has options D, E, F, G, etc. Or, a resuable modal component. Some UI Kits / design systems I’ve seen here require a component instance to be configured, then detached. Is this the standard approach?

Hi, I’ve created a simple infographic in Figma to test the features specifically I have placed clickable links to send the user to specified url’s. When using the ‘preview mode’ in the online Figma editor this works fine – so the implementation of the links should be correct. But when I use the embed code I can’t seem to click on the elements to navigate the user to the urls linked under them. I’ve tried this on my own page and on 2 embed code testing websites to be sure the issue wasn’t related to my own page.

Does anyone use Figma for financial planning? I’m looking for templates to do the following: 1. depict cash flow (including asset distributions details) more clearly than eMoney. 2. Use it for Side by Side comparisons of previous years numbers to current years update numbers.

Only when I create a combined component and try to add a “change to” interaction between them, do a few interaction triggers get disabled. On drag, while hovering, and while pressing get disabled. And if I select Mouse enter, it doesn’t work in the prototype.

I wrote a plugin that is working fine. But when I try to refactor some code into functions the same functionality stops to function. It seems that any code I place into nested async functions never return a value. I also tried the “then” syntax. Is this a known issue and how do I resolve this? In the example below async function updateElements() is an async function nested in a function that is already async. Any await figma.... does not return (so it is not just this function). This sin’t really covered in the documentation I read, for example Asynchronous Tasks | Plugin API async function updateElements() { console.log('This line appears in console, indicating the function is executed'); const colorVariable = await figma.variables.getVariableByIdAsync('VariableID:2:492'); console.log('Never get\'s here'); } figma.ui.onmessage = async (msg: { type: string, background: string, color: string }) => { if (msg.type === 'update-elements') { const colorVariable =

Hi there everyone! I’m relatively new to Figma, just finished my beginner course today and about to finish my very first project in Figma, so I’m pretty excited but that comes with a bit of frustration as well because I seem to have ran into a problem while prototyping. So I’m designing a website for mobile interface and I have quite a few buttons that should have some simple animations when clicking on it and then navigate to the next page. Most of them work, but there are two that always reveal a glitch when I view them in the prototype review. It happens suddenly so it’s not that obvious but still visible. My buttons are made of component variants and the prototyping happens between the two different variants and is set to “While pressing”. When I press the button on a seperate page without linking it to another page when clicked it works perfectly. But as soon as I place it into my design and give it another prompt “When clicked” a second before it transitions to the next page the

Hi everyone, I am trying to create a new account with Figma, but I am not receiving the email to complete my account setup. Here’s what I have tried so far: Checked my spam/junk folders. Clicked the “resend email” option several times. Attempted the process from multiple devices and browsers. Despite these efforts, the setup email never arrives. Can anyone advise what to do to resolve this issue? I would appreciate any help or guidance

Today when I logged into Figma with my free account all my files that I have worked on was gone 😦 Are the files automaticly deleted after a while when you have a free account? Or does any other had the same problem. Thanks Jimmy

Strangely, Figma has decided to not let me in the UI3 while all my co-workers have already received access. The support team refuse to help. anyone has ideas how to overcome this? Thanks

As the title says, all my files were in draft and now are now, is there any way to recover them?

I haven’t gotten it (Ui3) yet. Note that I am subscribed to the student plan
