Boolean state change in conditional

Hello, I’m trying to do something really simple but it doesn’t work : I have one button with two states (false = unclicked) (true = clicked), in the prototype I put this : Then I link this property with my variable, but when i click on the button in the prototype it doesn’t change state. Does anyone have an idea to make this work using boolean ?

Swapping and configuring instances via setProperties result in weird results

I have a component which has different variant as well as boolean and text properties, when I set values via API using instance.setProperties and the object passed changes the variant of the instance Code example figma.currentPage.selection[0].setProperties({ "Text#48:1": "$20.4", "Color": "Black", "hasSalesPrice": "True", "StrikeThrough Text#48:4": "$68" }) the problem is that changing the variant and text properties at the same time doesn’t seem to be working. any thoughts?

Scaling icon to fit frame/wrapper with each new instance

How do you persist the scale dimension of say an icon within a component when changing to a new instance. I find this quite problematic with Figma, where say I have a 24px icon inside a comp, and then I scale the icon or its wrapper by say 2x. Then when I reuse the component and replace the icon instance, it reverts to its original dimension, not respecting/retaining what is defined/constrained by the component. Specifically, the size (height and width) fits the dimension as scaled, but the stroke with doesn’t adjust accordingly so you have deviation from the desired look or I have to manually adjust each new icon stroke with, quite laborious, unnecessary…

Can't select components in a frame by double clicking

I just updated to Sonoma 14.0 and downloaded the Figma desktop app. I cannot double click into a component to select it, and behaves as if the frame is locked. No issues with the layer panel or command+select but it’s inconvenient. Is anyone having similar issues after the update? This issue impacts both the web + app.

Can we switch color variable mode through prototype?

Is it possible to change the theme while in the prototype and also switch the icons to the sun and moon to match the theme.

Can you switch color modes via prototyping?

I feel like I have to be missing something, because it seems like such an obvious implementation. It seems that the correct way to establish a dark/light mode is to use the new color modes. I just want to integrate a toggle button that lets the user click on it while the prototype is being played, and it will switch the mode. I don’t see such a setting though while trying to prototype for it.

All fonts changed into '?'

All fonts changed into ‘???’. It’s not missing the fonts function, it’s just changed into ‘???’ and weight data are gone. I didn’t change my font file locations, and I didn’t uninstall them. I literally have to change every single text, and it’s happening the same on version history. I don’t have the font with that name.

Creating a cart checkout

Hey guys i am trying to make a simple cart using variables. So for every liter on the meter, the company charges 2000 which should reflect at the bottom pay button. This means that (as seen in the image) the pay button would be having 70,000 as opposed to 504,000. I have created a charge variable that is 2000 where to get the total amount to pay it should multiply the quantity times the charge but this brings the same results as total plus charge. How can i make it to add 2000 per increase in liter? Thanks 2023-09-27T21:00:00Z

Sticky scrolling and interaction between 2 columns

Hi all, I’m a designer new to Figma and interesting in creating a prototype like the Tesla Model Y Car Configurator: Design Your Model Y | Tesla I have created a prototype of the individual components of the Configurator but can’t figure out how to scroll the Right hand column (where you select your options) and build a Left hand column (where the picture displays) so that they can interact with the right. I also want to achieve sticky header and have them work seamlessly together. Any thoughts would be welcomed. Adam Ralph 🙂

Is it Possible to Import WireFrames from Framer to Figma?

Hello, We are in the early stages of design and are wondering if its possible to import wireframes from Framer over to Figma as our design team realizes our development will move more expeditiously if we develop designs solely in Figma. We do see it’s possible to export in various image formats such as JPEG and PDF from Framer however, we are hoping there is something similar to importing in the other direction (Figma to Framer). Thank you for the help and any advice you may have.

Is there a way to make a global navigation component for a prototype?

Is there are way to have a single navigation bar component where it has all of the “Navigate to…” links such that each of its instances have all of these links? Or is it the case that such links can only be define on each instance? (so if you are prototyping 10 pages, and each webpage frame contains the navigation bar, all links must be manually replicated across each instance on each webpage frame?

Give users view and export access, but not ability to duplicate file

Is there anyway to restrict another user to view access, where they still can export out assets but not be able to duplicate the full figma file? How do people workaround this today if it’s not possible? Do you export out the assets for the developer instead?
