Arrow key auto-plays videos instead of just navigating pages — anyone else?Hey all, I know this has come up before on here, but I noticed it's been quiet for a while so figured I'd bring it back up because it's such an annoying glitch.I just finished designing my portfolio in Figma, with multiple videos on each page (some autoplay silently, others need a click to play and have sound).When presenting, the arrow key doesn't just move to the next page like you'd expect  - it also plays whatever videos are on the current page. So I end up with multiple videos playing with sound before I've even moved on.Has anyone found a workaround? I can't really share my portfolio like this… seems like such a basic thing to still be broken. Would love to know if Figma's aware of it or if there's a fix in the works. Thanks

what is the correct way to manage easing and time variables in the design system? On config they introduced it as 3 modes: Expressive, Smooth and standard and the name column showed the parameters of easing and timing. I think it should be in groups such as enter and exit; and if so, what should be their parameters? thanks! 

I have a design system with all my variables and aliases in my Light Mode. Sometimes I encounter situations where an entire component needs to be the ‘success’ colors or the ‘error’ colors. I don’t want to create a new ‘success’ mode just for modal headers and alerts but I also don't want to create a large set of variables when all that changes are the color themes. Does anyone know any way to do this easily? How are we solving for it?

I really wish there was a way to export my transcript from figma make. If I am a non technical user, I need to be able to extract this transcript from time to time, to give to another AI to help evaluate what I am doing, and to document my process. There is a lot to learn from the process.  For the past hour I have been trying to copy and paste the content, but that wont work either.  I highlight huge chunks of the convo, but the way the page is structured,  only 10% of what I highlight can i paste into a document. Its a real pain!  At least let your agent see the convo transcript so we can talk through what we made before ,and the agent can talk about different versions and see back into the project history!  

i published a website with in complete medical data that if used wrongly can harm people so if we can remove it by disabiling publishment it well be helpfulthanks in advance

I’ve recently launched a site built via Figma/Figma to Web and successfully indexed it on Google Search Console using a custom domain. However, I am hitting a wall with Bing Webmaster Tools and Yahoo.Current Setup & Steps Taken: Domain Management: Handled via Cloudflare. Sitemaps: Submitted via Bing Webmaster Tools; the status shows "Success," but the URLs remain unindexed after several days. Indexing Strategy: I’ve attempted using Cloudflare Workers to manage the transition/headers, but Bingbot doesn't seem to be crawling the actual content effectively. Status: Google is live and crawling fine; Bing/Yahoo shows zero presence. The Problem: Despite the sitemap being accepted, the pages aren't being indexed. I am relatively new to the technical side of SEO/GEO and am looking for the "missing link" that specifically triggers Bing to recognize the site structure.Questions: Has anyone successfully used IndexNow with a Cloudflare Worker setup for a Figma-based site? Are there spe

New customer here. I emailed support two days ago about how I’ve burned through 3000 AI credits in just a few hours but still not had a reply. Is this the level of support we get?

I've been using Figma across multiple devices (home PC, work PC, laptop, etc.) for years, and it's always worked fine. I could stay logged in on all of them without any problems.Recently, I started experimenting with AI workflows. One of the things I've been testing is letting an AI agent control the browser to log into Figma and perform some basic actions as part of an automation workflow.Ever since I started doing that, something changed.Now whenever I log into Figma on one device, one of my other devices gets logged out. Before this, I could stay logged in everywhere at the same time.I'm the only person using this account, so it's not actually being shared. The only thing that's changed is the AI browser automation.Has anyone else run into this?I'm wondering if repeated AI-controlled logins or automated browser interactions can trigger some kind of security or account-sharing detection. If so, is this temporary, or does it require contacting Support to get it resolved?Curious if any

While exploring Figma, I noticed what appears to be a behavior where items inside an Auto Layout frame can be freely dragged and positioned anywhere within the frame while still remaining part of the Auto Layout. This seems like a useful feature, but I'm not able to use it in my own files.Could you please let me know if this is an available feature? If so, I would appreciate it if you could explain how to enable and use it. If it's only available under certain conditions, settings, or in a specific version of Figma, I'd be grateful for any guidance.  

I'd like to change to a refund or monthly subscription after paying the annual subscription fee. I didn't use any paid plans. I pressed the payment button without knowing there were two check boxes, and I thought I would ask you again when I made the payment, but it was paid right away.  Please change your monthly subscription as soon as possible.

My refund request (ticket #1997125) has been waiting since july 4 with no response from support. Is this normal? Is there any way to get my ticket reviewed?

With a nice collection of CMS articles in Figma I could not figure out how to cross-link them. I was about to add a link to the content in rich text editor, but pages for CMS are not listed there. I would expect it to be work the same way as links work in ‘interaction’ mode: selecting the CMS page than the slug. Is there any (other) way to achieve this? Is there a plan to add/fix this?

Is there a tool/feature to turn these color blocks into Color Styles in Figma without manually building it?

I am building a design system where there are components such as a Tab Navigation (published) using Tab Navigation items (published, but hidden). The Tab Navigation (published) is using a slot so designers can add/remove Tab Navigation items (published, but hidden).  When I update the Tab Navigation item (published, but hidden) such as the padding, it does not update the Tab Navigation. I was expecting that the Tab Navigation (published) would receive those same updates (e.g. padding), but it does not.  Is this a common bug/issue that folks have? Should I be publishing and showing the Tab Navigation item so it’s shown in the Assets panel as well? 

Greetings, I am having an issue with a button animation I created. The button animation was built with a variable set. I added the button I created to a frame but once I enlarged the frame for overflow/scrolling, the button animation stopped working properly. I have been dealing with this for days and i don’t know what to do to get the effect I desire. I look forward for any help and insight from the community.

Hi everyone,I am attempting to link a custom domain to a site built on Figma, but we are running into errors during the setup process.Our systems administrator manages our DNS independently through custom nameservers (DNS Made Easy). We have already configured the DNS records based on the provided values (A record pointing to the server IP, TXT record for site verification, and a CNAME pointing to sites.figma.net).However, we are hitting the following roadblocks: Incomplete Server Configuration: When a browser attempts to connect to the domain, it successfully reaches the server IP address provided by Figma, but the server responds that it doesn’t recognise or know anything about the domain. It appears the host is not yet correctly configured to respond to our domain traffic. Missing DNS Proxy Toggle: Our administrator suspects that a backend DNS Proxy (Cloudflare intercept) might be toggled on automatically for our domain and CNAME configuration. According to the documentation, this

Built a plugin to help understand complex Auto Layouts—looking for feedback Hi everyone! As a frontend developer, I often found myself spending a lot of time trying to understand how large Figma layouts were structured before I could start implementing them. Existing tools provide the properties, but I wanted a way to quickly understand the relationships between containers, spacing, and sizing. So I built VizDeez. Instead of focusing on code generation, it visualizes the layout structure. You can: - See a visual map of a selected frame and its immediate children.- Hover to understand gaps, padding, and sizing with interactive animations.- Drill down into nested containers.- Inspect layers and copy CSS/Tailwind snippets when needed. I'd really appreciate feedback from designers and developers who work with Auto Layout regularly. - Does the concept make sense?- Is this something you'd find useful in your workflow?- What would make it more valuable? You can check it out here: https://www.

does the limit of the timeline in motion only stops at 2000ms? if so then what’s the point of having an ability to zoom out all the way above 20000ms?(edit) nevermind, apparently there’s a form right beside the current timeline position to choose the max duration for it, it's just for some reason written in grey, i thought it’s unclickable

Hey, thank you for answering. Actually I came across a video where a person was showcasing a video animation on top of gradient background, both are moving independently, I know we can do that in AE but still I was wondering if we can do in this in figma motion. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DZ26Yq5CtAM/Thank you. 

I have had multiple Figma accounts from multiple workplaces. I’ve made a personal free one and made the Profile connections within Figma. Can somebody help me get my original user handle here? It seems weird that they’re not just the same as within the Figma settings

As AI becomes part of everyday design workflows, more designers are exploring the benefits of running AI models directly on their own devices instead of relying entirely on cloud services.Some of the advantages include:Better privacy when working with client files and confidential design assets Offline access for uninterrupted workflows while traveling or without internet Faster responses by eliminating network latency Lower long-term costs by reducing recurring AI API usage Greater control over AI models, updates, and local knowledge basesWith modern Apple Silicon Macs and increasingly capable Windows hardware, running AI locally is becoming practical for tasks such as writing UI copy, summarizing documents, brainstorming ideas, generating images, and analyzing design documentation.I'm curious how the Figma community is approaching this shift.Are you using local AI alongside Figma? Which on-device AI tools have worked well for your workflow? Do privacy and offline capabilities influen
