When are content seats going to be available? Really want to use Figma Buzz but it’s not worth it yet as it’s not worth it for our team without the seats.

Hi,Im a student and new to Figma. Im having trouble adding community kits to a projectWhenever I open one I don’t get a prompt to add this library.I can only publish this by moving it to a project but then it prompts me that I add a seat? What am i doing wrong and how do I add these/save these so I can easily import them in other projects

Hi. I recently got suspended on figma and email them serveral times. The problem is that they can suspended you any time without any notice. On suspension you cant access you files. Community tell us its save to upload the files on figma means all years of efforts lost in seconds. First they give you free access now the locked your account after that now they suspended and hold your files.

I recently got suspended after ticket support they said After review, your account was found to be involved in fraudulent activity. Unfortunately, due to violations of our Terms of Service, we are unable to reinstate the account. after that i email them atleast give my files back and  figma now own the files my 5 years of work at there with complete portfolio were busted. its like you want to destroy someone life work. i will never trust again on figma 

I previously had a Figma account registered with my old company email address . Unfortunately, I no longer have access to that email since I’ve left the company.After the recent Figma update, the login process now requires an access code sent to the registered email. Because I can’t receive that code, I’m completely locked out of my Figma account.As a result, I’ve lost access to all my design files and projects, which are critical for my ongoing work. I urgently need access to these files or a way to transfer them to my new email address.Your help would be greatly appreciated — this is very important for my work.

Hey everyone 👋I’ve been freelancing as a designer and kept running into the same headache —keeping track of client feedback and revisions outside Figma.Clients comment on emails, send screenshots in Slack, or text feedback on WhatsApp 😅So I built a small CRM for designers that connects with Figma links,and lets clients view, comment, and approve each version in one place — kind of like a client-facing review page.It’s still new, and I’d love to hear: How do you manage revisions or approvals with your clients? Do you use Figma comments, Notion, or something else? Would a shared “review page” make your workflow easier? Here’s a quick preview of what it looks like 👇 If anyone’s curious, I’ve linked i

I’m currently working on this picker area. I created one component set so I can switch between exercises 01–08.However, I’m not sure how to make the timer work together with it. I know that you can’t create an actual countdown timer inside Figma, but what I need is to show the timer state for each exercise.For example:01 — Calves — 04:00 Remaining02 — Hamstrings — 03:30 RemainingEach exercise has a duration of 30 seconds.How can I make this work so that when I click on “02 — Hamstrings,” the displayed countdown also changes to “03:30,” just to demonstrate to the developer how it’s supposed to function?​​​​​​

Hey everyone,I’ve been learning mobile app design in Figma lately, and AI tools often suggest that I should always follow responsive design rules. However, I’ve noticed that many templates, social media posts, and even YouTube tutorials don’t seem to focus much on responsiveness.So I’m wondering — in the mobile app design field, is responsiveness actually an important rule to follow, or is it something designers usually skip in practice?Would love to hear your thoughts! 🙌

After importing a figma file in figma the images do not appear in the design.I have received the the figma files from the UI designer. 

Hello,I am working on building basic and complex components within my figma file and I am running into a road-block.  It is my goal to re-design all the pieces to reflow from a full screen mode to a half-screen size.  This entails using auto-layout for components.  What I need help with is that I have individual child frames all together in an auto-layout parent frame.  I have successfully structured the typography, icons, and background within each frame to reflow properly when I re-size the component.  However, I am running into one issue which is that the background colors within each child frame will start growing/shrinking exactly where they started, but I would rather than start where the prior frame ended (after the adjustment) + 2 pixels for spacing.  As I grow or shrink the space, it doesn’t adjust like I wish and messes up the design.  Is there a way to fix this or am I expecting a feature that doesn’t exist? 

I’m the only UI designer responsible for my company’s mobile app.A few weeks ago, we decided to migrate all our app UI designs -over 150 screens- from Adobe XD to Figma.So far, I’ve recreated a few new flows in Figma and shared separate prototype links for each (as I used to do in XD).But we recently realized that every shared prototype link reveals the entire design document, and that all flows are visible from the left menu.This is a serious problem for us because we have multiple teams working on different areas of the app, and some of those teams’ work is confidential even to other teams.I’ve looked for ways to share only specific flows or limit visibility, but so far couldn’t find a practical solution other than creating separate files - which isn’t feasible for a 150-screen, 30-flow project.Is there any way to share only specific flows (or hide others) within the sam

Hello everyone, sadly I couldn’t really find any solutions through Google, so I’m trying my luck here. I’m fairly new to prototyping with Figma but managed to create a hover-effect quite easily:The hover should add a gradient and a arrow. So far, so basic. Now, when testing out the prototype and hovering over my button, the smart objects in which all the buttons are positioned as part of the sites navigation component will change in width. I think I understand what’s happening in theory, the button is now getting ever so slightly bigger because of the arrow being added. This fact combined with the auto-layout just makes everything wider. I just don’t know how to solve it. Making the original button wider is not really possible because that would be a fixed value. I need the button to be flexible in wid

Hi, How do I paste the blue frame in between About and How? The entire frame A is using auto-layout. Using ctrl+C and ctrl+V. Is it possible? I know I can use mouse click and drag in then it will sit perfectly in between. But what if I wanted to use keyboard keys?If i click on About and paste, blue frame will be nested inside About frame which is what I don’t want.Another way is to select any frame, hit Shift+Enter to go to parent frame A, However this will make the blue frame pasted at the end of frame A, imagine i have 10 rows, I’ll need to press arrow key up until it’s positioned on the 3rd row. Thanks!  

In my project, I use two separate Figma files—one for design and another for reusable components. These files are connected through a shared library. Occasionally, when I make edits to complex components, publish the changes, and then update the library in the design file, some components fail to update correctly. This usually happens when the component is nested inside another frame or auto layout.!--startfragment>I initially thought that might be the cause, but the strange part is that sometimes the update works perfectly. If anyone has experienced this issue or knows how to resolve it, I’d really appreciate your insights.!--endfragment>

Smart Animate breaks when animating width change on complex shapes while hovering but not on mouse leave…What is going on?Is this normal?

Hey! I’ve created 93 Typography Variables, but not all of them are showing in the Right Panel (on Design Mode). Actually, most of them are not showing up at all.I’ve already remove and added, once again, the variables and related values. I’ve uninstalled and re-installed Figma. None of the options worked.Can you please help me?Thank you so much, friends!

Hi, Is there a way to manage external libraries in figma site ?Like updating librarie, swap library, batch replace components, and so on ?I miss those features in figma site and I can’t find them anywhere in this environment

Hi, we have a component with dimension 288*40px width* height, a bottom stroke of 1px weight position inside is added to the component, which is making the component overall size to increase by 1px - 288*41.

When you’re using Figma to design for many projects or with multiple teams, how do you keep your components (buttons, icons, cards, etc.) organized so everyone can find and use them easily?

I’ve been working with the Figma app’s MCP Service in Copilot Agent mode, but I have the occasional timeout after 30+ seconds even though it doesn’t seem like Figma should be blocked by anything.  Has anyone seen the same and figured out what’s causing it? Alternately, is it possible to see logging from the MCP server process? Thanks.
