Hey all, I can not for the life of me work out how to stop items from showing in libraries. I published a v1 of a design system and after a period of time published a new library. There are similar components such as buttons. I no longer want the buttons from the DS1 to show in files, I’ve removed it from the file within the design file itself, but items still show in the libraries. I’ve even gone as far as deleting the file and it still shows in published libraries. Now I just have components showing that I can still take the instance from and if i click to view the main component I just get an error. Have no idea how to stop them from showing up and help would be awesome. Thanks in advance

In Figma I use the colour profile: sRGB But I’m not sure what the best colour profile to use for my Display (iMac Retina 5k 2019) Any help / advice would be much appreciated 🙂

Hi everyone, I’ve started using Figma’s slide deck for my presentations. When I enter present mode and interact with the prototype, I get stuck when trying to move to the next slide. Does anybody know the shortcut to move into the next slide? When I don’t use the prototype I can easily change by just clicking but it gets blocked as soon as I open the flow.

Hi There, I am unsure of what the verification required is, it’s from the Education team. I am not a student or Educator but a founder of a company. what are the next steps please as it said I cannot edit my Figma app file after July 13th ?Thank you.

I took subscription for 1 year plan but today only three months happen Figma is locked my screen he is saying like that please update the payment method how can i resolve this issue please resolve my issue asap .

Please search for existing topics before posting! Press 🔍 at the upper right to search. I have paid for the annual professional team plan starting this July. However, I need to pay for 1 person, but now 2 people have paid, so I would like to receive a refund for 1 person. I made an inquiry about this, but there was no response, so I asked the community. Can I cancel my subscription and receive a full refund to pay for one person again? Or can only one person receive a refund out of the amount paid?

Hi, I’ve been having a problem with my Figma file for the second day in a row. It’s super slow and has an awful lag when I do anything. It somehow fixed itself yesterday but it’s worse today and has yet to fix itself. It seems to get worse when I copy and paste a component. I’ve cleared the cache and restarted Figma but it hasn’t helped. Does anyone how to fix this?

Hello Figma Community, My team’s file has become locked. Will this issue be resolved after payment? My payment is due on July 18th, and I’ve been experiencing this problem since today. Please assist me as soon as possible. Thank you for your help.

Can anyone share the grid formation/layout used in the Figma web application itself? I’m curious about the specific grid system and layout structure that Figma uses for its own interface design.

I am facing the following issues: The project has a growing number of pages, which makes it very slow to keep them all on one page, so I have to use different pages. I cannot use “Navigate to” between different pages, so I must use “Open link,” which causes refreshing every time I click. A sub-menu component must be placed on each page; otherwise, “Open overlay” will not work. The sub-menu component frequently becomes disconnected from its parent component for unknown reasons, making the menu unclickable. Are there any more elegant solutions available?

Hi, I’m aware this is likely impossible (having done some extended searches that didn’t go through), but i’m trying my luck here anyway. I’d love to be able from a text node to access the content and the bounding box of each invidividual lines. By lines, i mean both lines created by a newline (enter) as well as lines created by wrapping (reaching the end of the text box) i don’t have the budget to do heavy manipulations (like writing multiple variations of the content and making measurements…) Thanks in advance for any informations. Best

Hi everyone, I’m on MacOS 15 Beta already. On this morning I saw that UI3 release on Public version of Figma MacOS but not mine. Did Figma only support official MacOS version for now??

Hi! Accidentally deleted the command along with an important file. The link to the mail has not arrived

What happens to a Secret Team (and any possible files therein) if the member who created it is removed from the organisation? I’m an org admin and I need to remove an ex-employee, but I noticed that he created a Secret team. Obviously I’m currently not able to see if there are any projects or files within this team. What will happen to them if I do remove his access?

Hi! Are mode_ids unique within a file or are they only unique within a collection? We assumed they were unique within the file, but have recently encountered duplicate mode_ids, so was wondering whether this is a bug or not 🤔

I am building a complex prototype where users can switch settings from light to dark mode. Also, the user can swap the accent color based on some predefined colors (think Buttons color and hyperlinks) … how do I set it up so that when someone selects a color and then swaps to light or dark mode, it all kind of works?

Hi all, the “back” interaction doesn’t work within variables of a “cross icon” component, in a components-driven prototype. The “cross icon” is not a stroke, it’s a normal path and I have followed Figma’s suggestions to group the arrow in a frame and make the frame interact (not the arrow itself) but this doesn’t work neither, I have even tried to add the interaction into multiple other elements. It seems to be linked to the variables, if I do not use variables and only artboards, the back interaction works, but not to change a variable to another.

Hi, I have a component (product tile) with two variants (small and large). I also have another component with the small variants of component 1. I made 2 different instances of component 2. I would like to be able to when clicking on an instance, it opens it in another frame in large, is this possible? Thank you in advance <3

On my auto layout layer, there is a frame wrap around my auto layout icon, and it also cause this current auto layout content is overlapping with its sibling (also auto layout, I wrap them within a parent auto layout frame). Does anyone know what this icon mean and how this is happen and how to fix it back to normal auto layout? thank you!!

An error is showing while i am trying to open my files Can someone help with what to do?

After copying and pasting Connector line from FigJam into a Figma file, searching for “Connector line” in the layers panel does not return any results. When annotation text is added to the lines and searched, it matches as Text. What I want to do is to select Connector lines in bulk in Figma.

Hello everyone, I am using Figma’s REST API to integrate my software with Figma. I need to read and write the variables from a file. I’ve created an API key with read and write access to the variables, and I can read it, but whenever I try to write to it, I get the error: ‘403: Invalid account type’. What could be causing this error? I know it is probably permission that needs to be granted, but when requesting permission from the company where I work, what type of permission do I need to request from them? Or type of account do I need to have?

Hey, is there any way to switch back to the old UI? Working full week with a bottom menu bar and keep looking for old features still. For some of them, need to click on the far right button to search… I can’t find blend modes for images anymore at all.
