Unable to Use assets

About a year ago, i was able to use Figma built in components/assets, since then i haven’t used Figma. When i came back, i am unable to find those buttons/fields/polls in the assets panel and when i search anything in library. I get a not found error. How can i enable Figma built in design UI components, for a new account?

A small change in the library changes the entire component and overrides all changes in the design page

when I change a property on a component in the DS and then I update the DS on a specific file, that same component will reset all the overrides for example: the names of a buttons, or the number of buttons… I have 5 in the DS but use only 3 in the design… why does this happen?

Image fill rotation by angle

The Fill>Image option allows for rotations of 90° steps only. Is there a way to set a numerical angle? My only solution so far is to change the Image fill to Crop, and eyeballing a rotation. Same for the Tile option. It would be fantastic to be able to set the image rotation, as well as the tiling angle.

Шрифт Montserrat в эффекте Layer blur

Здравствуйте. Недавно заметила проблему, что текст со шрифтом Montserrat ведет себя вот так, когда использую эффект Layer blur. Причем это только во Frame, вне него все нормально. Что это такое и как можно исправить? Программу перезапускала. Проверяла обновления Figma, новых нет. Компьютер перезагружала. Ничего не помогло.

My Figma plugin not showing in Figma plugin search

I recently developed and published a Figma plugin (for Figma only). This plugin is available for use and can be accessed through a shared link from a landing page, and then used in Figma. However, if the plugin name is just searched in the Figma plugin search bar, the plugin will not come up as a result. Why is this? Please help ASAP Thanks!

Missing files in Figma free plan

I wanted to access a Figma Design file from over a year ago. I’m on the free plan. Is there a chance that it’s been deleted, or do I need to go to the paid plan to view it again? I used my web history to track down the Figma link and it says I had to “request access”. I am the only person that’s worked in the file. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Is there another way to format the green stroke on the left edge of the “Option 3” box so that it is rectangular like the stroke on the “Option 2” box but still contained within the rounded black edge?

Export as PDF only text = 3,5 mo?

Hello community, I looked throught the forum but could not find any solution to this. I started doing my curriculum on Figma and I could notice a problem with the PDF’s weight I started deleting each elements and re-exporting to see which one is causing the anomaly, and curiously, one single paragraph weights 3,2 mo… See pictures attached. 1- A solution was to put the Figma-pdf in indesign and export again. Resulting with a 950 ko document which is, again, too big for just text. And too big for Linkedin 😦 2- Fattening the text didn’t change the weight.

Swap styles from one library to another

Hi Figma! I’m trying to find a solution for this, but not having any luck. My problem is as follows: Pages were created using WIP styles (text, colour, grid etc) and since then we have created the finalised the styles, but some of the old styles were not replaced. I want to remove the old styles and remap them to the ‘proper’ library, but haven’t found an easy way to do this. The ‘swap library’ functionality doesn’t work as the styles are differently named. So far the only solution is to go through my entire file and manually find and replace all the rogue styles. Please help!

Bad responsive for swipe and delete on Iphone

Hi. I have made an swipe-delete action in my app. It works great in the simulator, but in my device it works quite bad. Sometimes I get to the action but many times it won’t respond. is there any tweaks I can do to make it work more reliable on the devise? Sometimes I need to repeat the action/swipe 3-4 times before anything happens, but in the simulator I never need to. Thanks for any ideas!
