Hi everyone, I recently upgraded my operating system to macOS 15 and have encountered some issues with Figma: After the upgrade, when I open a Figma design file, the page becomes unresponsive. I’ve tried using Chrome, Safari, and the Figma desktop app, but only Safari can open the file normally. The design files use the “PingFang SC” font. However, after the OS upgrade, it shows a font error and I’m unable to replace the font. This issue did not occur prior to the upgrade. Has anyone else experienced similar problems after upgrading to macOS 15? Any insights or potential solutions would be greatly appreciated. I’m wondering if this is a compatibility issue between Figma and the latest macOS version. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!

I am trying to recreate the feed of the threads (web). But I am having this trouble. I tried using clip content. It might be due to lack of expertise in the feature, I can’t figure out the solution.

I’m new in Figma. I cannot fix the gap between frame and object. i need the object will cover the frame.

May I ask where is the layer opacity edit in the slide mode?

Hi there, What do you guys use to upscale images? I’ve been doing it in photoshop but it takes forever and it’s not so handy. Do you know any tools worth recommending?

Hi there, I’m having trouble figuring out how to apply a variable to the Auto Layout vertical gap. The variable icon is missing, and I’ve tried right-clicking but haven’t found anything.

Hello! Do you know if I can animate parts of slides in FigmaSlides?

What is a draft file described as at Figma??? What is a draft? Based on the new updates, what are drafts? Because even files i get from the community are drafts??? I haven’t used them and i don’t want them to belong anywhere as some are even for inspiration. how am i going to decide a team for each of my 3000 drafts??

This is slowing me down big time.

I showed up the Figma and Behance URLs in Discord and it came out like this. What should I do to make it look like Behance?

I recently upgraded to Figma UI3 and don’t see the Wrap in a section option when selecting more than one frame. Where can I find it, if it is enabled in this update? UI2 UI3

When I try to wrap in a section multiple elements selected, that option is not available anymore in the new UI3, to do so, I need to execute the Cmd+K command and write “Wrap in a section” to see it available.

I can’t find a way to add a URL link in the new editor - where did it go? In the legacy experience, the icon to add a link was at the top of the page but I cannot find it in the new editor.

I need constraints, but I don’t see them. Please help to find them!

I have a project with Prototype screens on one page, and components on another screen. Within the components screen, I’ve a dropdown component with two variants - open & closed. This is then placed within another “table” component with several variants on that page - with the previous component nested at the end of each row. The table component is then being pulled into different screens within the ‘Protytype’ page of the project - with variables determining which table variant appears. What I want and can’t seem to do is determine which screen a user goes to, when they click the dropdown items in each row (which is essentially a nested component on a separate page. How would I accomplish this? I don’t see a way to use variables within the navigate option. Nor do I see a way to pass that click through to the page, from a component on a separate page. I tried to circumvent it by using “open link” with ‘new tab’ unchecked and sending the user to the link of that page on a prototype,

made all the interactions and after that the artboard is empty but works fine in present view. .

I know that Figma has a lot of presets fo a bunch of frames, but if I want to create a design that I can measure in mm, the relaion is not 1:1. Could somebody give me any guide or standard measurement so I can change the sizes myself please?

I was working on a design file, when all the sudden the UI itself scaled itself to be larger than normal. I don’t know what I did, but I want it to go back to normal. I tried a bunch of different things and they all did not work. This is what it looks like: This is what it looks like as the default now, like when I would open a design file. This goes for all the design files I open too. Anyone know how to fix this issue?

Hello, I didn’t see anything about this in my search. I’ve been using the comments on Figma for a while now, and suddenly today I can’t respond to someone on my team who commented on files she edited. Is there a reason why it suddenly says “comments editor unvailable” all of a sudden? It won’t let me type a reply to her comment like I was able to do before. It also wont let me create a comment, whereas I was able to do so before. Can someone let me know whats happening, and how to fix it? Thank you

Hello I am new to Figma, I am trying to use arc tool on an elipse. But I cannot catch the arch point inside the elipse to drag the arc point to create curve on my elipse. Because when I mouse over the elipse, the arc point in the elipse shows and the cursor of my mouse turns into arch (little arrow) to show me that it is ready to arc. but when I move my mouse the cursor changes to size tool. As a result I only manage to either increase or reduce the size of the elipse but not arching the elipse. I even downloaded a arc pluging from Figma but I am still having the same issue. Can you please help.

Trying to figure out the best way to code out custom icon libraries after hand off. Anyone have a nice starter for this. I love the footprint of packages like Lucide, and I’ve tried pulling their code apart but they have a lot of moving pieces.
