I am facing in the same design that I made on a normal account and on an Enterprise account. For the same Frame I can get the Image URL from the Normal Account but cannot get the Image URL for the same Frame from the Enterprise account. Thought I can use files API on both the accounts. I am using 0auth for the Token.

Hello! I’m having a problem when I’m trying to apply Boolean operations to a shape that is made up of shapes with different corner radius. After applying Boolean operations, the radius become the same. Is this a Figma bug or am I doing something wrong? Example: Here’s a link to a Figma file that demonstrates the problem: https://www.figma.com/design/N53yQFjE33wyA9jU4y28Bq/Untitled?node-id=0-1&t=xBwnbOKuLh093F7S-1

Two people in my organization need Figma Professional licenses in order to create wireframes / mockups. We have many others in the organization who need to see those and play around in them, but they do not need to be able to create them on their own. Are we okay if the two creators get Figma Professional licenses, and the rest just have free licenses?

Looked for an existing answer but no luck! I have an existing Figma doc w/ master components which contain instances of other master components. For various reasons, I no longer have access to the doc that contains those masters. I’d like to re-create those masters from the instances I have. Detaching the instance and then making it a master does not duplicate the original variants (which is why it’s called an instance - duh!). But setting each instance to all its variations, copying them, making them masters and then combining them into a master with variants is a HUGE amount of work. Anyone ever find a shortcut to this? Thx, Ron

Annotation gets deleted when backspacing dev resource link

Design consistency is a critical factor for Android applications, given the platform’s wide range of screen sizes and resolutions. Figma addresses this challenge by allowing designers to create responsive layouts and adaptive components. This ensures that designs remain consistent and visually appealing across various Android devices, from small smartphones to large tablets. Figma’s collaborative features also streamline the workflow between designers and developers. As designers make updates in Figma, these changes are instantly visible, which helps avoid discrepancies and reduces the time developers spend implementing design updates. This real-time collaboration is vital for maintaining the integrity of the design throughout the development process. Prototyping is another area where Figma excels. Its interactive prototypes help gather early feedback, which is crucial for iterating on designs and refining user experiences. By simulating app functionality, designers can make informed a

I didn’t find the option to delete the shared file. If possible can anyone in the community help me to resolve the issue?

I have to say, these new membership plans and permissions are the most frustrating thing I’ve ever encountered. I’ve spent so long with my clients, guiding them to move their projects to their own accounts so they have the flexibility to share access with whoever they want and pay for these ridiculous “design seats.” Then, I have to ask them to add me and give me edit access, which involves endless screenshots and messages once again + the time spent learning the new restrictions. I’ve paid for a professional team annual plan, yet my client can’t give me edit access because apparently, I’m flagged as a “Restricted account that needs to be upgraded.” Honestly, I want to give up at this point and switch back to Sketch or Adobe XD. It’s such a waste of time and money.

Hi there, I have designed a shirt in Figma and as you can see, there are no gaps in the shirt. However, when I export it there are thin little lines between the pieces that make up the shirt (see image) Please assist 🙂

How can i enable AI tool please let me know

Hello, I’m discovering Slides and for now I’m still confused with some functionality. First, maybe it’s just because it’s still deploying, but sometime some panels just doesn’t show up like the layers panel or the position panel. Sometimes i can’t see the video parameters (autoplay/loop/mute). I am surprised there is no YouTube video embed. So I uploaded them from local files. But the fact there is no play button or icon on it is kind of weird. If I have a slide with 2 videos, I can’t have an autoplay. But there is no information in presentation mode telling me it’s not an image. I’m also disappointed that you can’t restore video state when you change slide and come back, i would love to be able to reinitialize the video at its beginning. What do you think, am I missing some settings ?

We are merging two pdfs into one. The first pdf is coming from an html script with 595 pixel width, the second is coming from Figma, also with a 595 pixel width. However, when I export the frames in Figma as a PDF, the pixel width changes to be in the 700s. So when I merge the two pdfs together, they are different sizes. Why is this happening?

If I try to right click on an element in the canvas the right click menu doesn’t appear but it does work when you right click on that element in the the list of layers. In the browser you can right click in both and that is preferable

Hey, interested in using Yubikey for 2FA

Hi all, I’ve this component library that I publish to other Figma files when I make a change. But in the last few weeks there’s this blue dot (notification) that sits on the libraries icon. I click on it and I see the Publish button is active, then I click Publish but then on the next screen button turns disabled. On that modal and it also mentions I have 9 changes in this file, which I went through each component and I can’t find what those changes are? Can someone please help me how I can find those changes and why I can’t publish anything? thank you

The recent update to Figma’s independent rounded corner tool has – I’m sure – no doubt been helpful to those unfamiliar with CSS. For myself and others, it was never a problem since the logic was clear, and we could simply tab through each input field. So while I’m happy with the new design, I feel Figma definitely needs to retain the original tabbing order of top-left, top-right, bottom-right, and finally bottom-left. I believe this correction would be a good middle ground for those unfamiliar with the tool, and those who are very familiar with how it should logically reflect CSS.

Waiting your answer Figma)?

Not so far from the today Figma provided frame shared URL in the following format: https://www.figma.com/file/2irRrkEgfBgbLMcdgPUSXt/OpenSearch?type=design&node-id=72%3A8539&mode=design&t=gbtgxDgFPZbXo6GZ-1 So, I was able to get a “node-id” parameter, decode it and find a node in a document by ID. But now Figma gives URL in the following format: https://www.figma.com/design/9C0Vp58ZQcvJC0G4gM6dIH/Common-pages?m=auto&t=Q2kLcrXlPng5YLvB-1 So, no more “node-id” in URL. My questions:. What is it “t=Q2kLcrXlPng5YLvB-1”? How can I use it to find a node in a document? Thanks

So often when I’m looking for iOS or Material designs, I’m finding old outdated versions. Are UI Kits planned to be long term officially supported by Apple and Google, or will they fall out of date similar to kits that are on the Figma Community?

Is it possible right now to check for two conditions to run an action? I.e. If a=1 and b=1 then do action Thanks

Hi, I worked on 2 new draft files few days ago. I open Figma again and initially i did see all my files as it was, suddenly it goes missing from the recent files. I was able to retrieve access of one through the prototype preview, but it shows that I can only View and not edit. It seems my file ownership is removed and i can only view my own file. Has anyone else gone through this? Please explain what is happening.

It would be super super super awesome if the Figma Library Analytics were opened up for the REST API, would love to add these types of analytics and health checks to a doc site or other dashboards.

The URL format has changed, and I can’t obtain the file ID 😂 Is there a way to obtain the ID of a specific file?

Recently Figma introduces UI3. I might be a little too old…I would rather stick to the previous UI layout so I can hit my deadline… is there any way to do this? Thanks samuel
