Hi everyone,I'm currently cleaning up and standardizing token mapping across our design system, and I've run into a variable/mode issue that I can't explain.I have an Accordion component that should be mapped exclusively to our Gifted variable collection.When I inspect the component and click into the variable bindings, everything appears correct. The variables are bound to the expected tokens within the Gifted collection.However, when I look at the Modes section in the right-hand panel, Figma shows that the component is also tied to the Common Components collection, which shouldn't be happening.What's confusing is that, after further investigation, it seems the issue may be related to a success state icon variable. The problem is:The Accordion component doesn't appear to have any success state icon variables in its variable assignments. The success state icon variable only exists in the Gifted collection. There isn't a corresponding success state icon variable in the Common Components

For context, all the components needs to be binding to “Whitelabel ONLY” variable collection only. The problem is as follows… - clicked on parts of the component that shows binding to three different collection to investigate what other wrong binding is in the mix - clicked each individual parts of the components to check for incorrect binding (in this case: component common and gifted only) - they all show that they are binding to the correct collection, which is Whitelabel ONLY  - I clicked out to the parent level, only to see that it still shows the incorrect bindings!  - so the problem is, i dont know which part is still binded to the wrong collection?!  because on individual level, they all show the correct binding, but when clicked together, it shows incorrect binding to three different collections   PLEASE HELP, I need to handle three different component binding collections cleanly, multiplied the above situation is driving me crazy!   

Hi, I’m trying to recover some screens that were created by the Figma Agent and later deleted during the same Agent workflow.I asked the Agent to analyze an existing user flow, identify navigation/path issues, and create the missing or corrected screens needed to fix those issues.The Agent successfully generated several screens directly in my Figma file. I saw the screens on the canvas and they contained work that I need to recover.However, while continuing to work with the Agent, those screens were subsequently deleted/removed by the Agent.I tried using Version History to restore an earlier state of the file, but the generated screens do not appear in any of the available versions. I cannot find a version corresponding to the moment when those screens existed on the canvas.Is there any separate history, log, checkpoint, or recovery mechanism for changes made by the Figma Agent?In particular, I would like to know whether it is possible to:recover objects/screens created and subsequentl

I don’t know if this is a bug or simply a feature I don’t get: Shadows look completely different when applied to a shape with a fill vs. an auto layout of the same dimensions with the same fill. Even stranger, when clip content is applied to the auto layout the shadow looks the same as it does on the shape.Is there anything I can do to ensure a shadow renders the same whether or not it is applied to a shape, a frame or other object? And what’s with the clip content difference? I would have expected the shadow to look different with clip content enabled, not the other way around.I’d be much obliged if anyone could enlighten me. 

I’m currently working on custom box layouts and product packaging designs for client projects (specifically inspired by structural dieline standards from sites like https://zeepackaging.com/.While Figma is amazing for UI/UX, I’m running into a workflow issue when preparing print-ready dielines for manufacturing: CMYK & Spot Color Export: Figma natively exports in RGB, which causes color shifting when sent to commercial packaging printers. How are you handling CMYK conversion without destroying component styles? Bleed & Trim Lines Setup: What is the best practice for setting up bleed boundaries (3mm/0.125") and fold/score lines inside Figma components so they don't get displaced during auto-layout adjustments? Vector Precision for Dielines: Is it better to draw cut/crease lines directly in Figma or import vector dielines via SVG from Illustrator? If anyone has an efficient workflow or plugin recommendation for packaging design export in Figma, I’d love to hear your insights!

Hi everyone,I permanently deleted some files in Figma trash, but I also want to make sure that these files are deleted from the Figma server.I don’t know if permanently deleted files in trash means that these files are also deleted from the server? Or the files are still stored on the server?I’ve attempted to contact Figma team by submit a support request as ticket(#2095775) through AI support chat. But it’s been a week, I haven’t received any reply email. Is there a better way to contact related team to solve my request?  

Hello everyone! I have a question about the rules for selling logos, web designs, and anything created in Figma. Do I need to mention on the design, legally speaking, that it was made in Figma if I don’t have a paid subscription? Thank you in advance.

Hi everyone! 👋 I'm doing a UX case study on how designers and developers collaborate in Figma, and I'm looking for a few people to chat with. Ideally: designers and developers who actually work together on Figma files, not solo designers or devs, since I want real handoff experience, not general opinions. (We'd chat one-on-one, not together!) It's just a relaxed ~25 min conversation about your everyday workflow, nothing formal, no prep needed. Know a good designer-dev duo, or want to join yourself?  DM me please, thanks 🤩 🙏

Hi there!We have a large multibrand system with 17 brands which i’ve inherited. Each brand has 2 primitive collections (standard + colours), and then the semantic collection which houses each brand as a mode.There was no planning for inverse/knockout variants of components, so those needing an on-dark or a flexible background colour (and corresponding text colours) which of course we now need for some brands.In the case of our footer, i had created knockout tokens to sit in the existing eg: font/colour/interactive/text button group and then created a new variant of the footer to map them too and added a boolean switch between the default and inverse themes. But is there another way (without refactoring all of our tokens)

Hi.This is my first time submitting a plugin, and I was wondering if there’s a way to track the progress of the review process or receive updates after submission. I understand that reviews can take 10 days or even more, but I was curious if there’s any way to check the current status or get notified about any progress. Thank you!1669897141584526956

Just graduated and I’m waiting to get a Pro plan later. Once I’m officially out of EDU status will I still be able to transfer and edit all my student files to my own professional account?

I’m currently going through the submission process for a plugin I developed, which I plan to sell as a paid plugin.I would like to enter the price, but the price field is grayed out and I’m unable to enter an amount. I can select the payment type, however.I read the official documentation and understand that I need to activate a Stripe account. However, the documentation says:“After you’ve been approved to sell on Community, you must activate your Stripe account before you can publish paid resources. You will receive an email inviting you to activate your Stripe account. A banner will also display on the Figma Community with the same prompt.”Does this mean that I should submit the plugin without entering a price by clicking the Publish button?I’m concerned that if I publish it without setting a price, the plugin might be submitted or published as a free plugin.Will the plugin still be submitted as a paid plugin even if I don’t enter the price at this stage, with the price being set aft

Can I set custom HTTP response headers, specifically Content-Security-Policy and X-Frame-Options, on a site published through Figma Make?

I'm so sick of this！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！

Hi figma, I'm new to figma and I heard you guys made a plan for students. After knowing that, I immediately registered to get the plan on August 27, 2026. But I still haven't heard from you. The status says it only takes a few minutes / 20 minutes if busy, but I've been waiting for a few days and haven't heard anything at all. Can you guys help me?  

I’m curious about how other designers handle font variations in Figma. Do you usually use variable fonts, or do you prefer separate font weights and styles?It would be great to have more flexible options for managing font variations directly in Figma, especially when working on responsive websites and UI designs.

Hi guys, I subscribed to figma not because I just wanted to use Figma Make. I thought the AI worked for designs as well, just like https:sleek.design, but unfortunately for me, what is made, can’t be edited on Figma Design. How do I cancel this subscribtion. It’s been taking almost £22 from my account monthly - no matter what I do.Many thanks.Abe

i am creating an experience where a client can add a product through the use of a modal that has numerous multi-selects and needs to be able to expand in height depending on what the client selects. with that being said this is how i have the interaction wired. if i add a the “background” to the overlay, the modal locks and you can not even scroll up to see the modal information. i have also selected “reset scroll” and when clicked it never rests to the manual positioning. is this a limitation or and error on my end. the odd thing is if i deselect the “add background” i can scroll up but the page does not auto rest the scroll on click….any help on this would be amazing 

Need help understanding an unexpected Figma Professional billing chargeHi everyone,I’m a Junior UX/UI Designer at my company, and I’m trying to understand an unexpected charge on our Figma Professional plan.Here’s our setup:* We have a Figma Professional plan that normally costs us around $60 per month.* There are 3 designers working on the Professional team:  * 1 Senior UX Designer, who is the admin/owner  * 2 Junior Designers, including meThe two Junior Designers are not admins and do not manage the Professional plan, billing, or seats. We simply work on the files under the Senior UX Designer’s Professional team.Recently, for a design-related task, I gave our **Product Analyst Edit access to one specific Figma file for approximately 10 minutes.The Product Analyst was not previously part of our Professional team or one of the 3 paid seats.After that, our company was charged $96.13 instead of the usual ~$60.My CEO and Senior Product Head believe that the additional charge happened beca

I’m trying to set an animation to play only once instead of looping. I can do this in the Motion playback by using the “Play once” toggle button and it looks good there, however when I go into Preview mode it keeps looping. I’ve also tried adding several seconds of dead time to my animation in the hopes that the user wouldn’t see the loop, but that doesn’t seem to change the loop time. Has anyone encountered this, or know of a fix?

I’ve connected a custom MCP server connector and the Connect goes through, manage shows correct list of tools and I can set whether each needs permission to use or not. But when I try to use the connector, I get back that Figma fails to load any tools. I’ve used the same server with Claude and Codex and works there. Any ideas what could be the problem? Is there any special steps to add the connecter to session (I’ve used the +-button). Here’s what Figma AI says about the connector.The OINO.cloud server has no listed resources. MCP servers expose tools separately from resources — I can only list resources via my available tools, not enumerate the tool definitions directly.PS. talking about the browser-Figma.

I'm currently using the Figma Education plan. I recently moved my design file into a Team workspace, but I noticed that the AI agent beta button has completely disappeared from my toolbar in Figma Design.Are there specific limitations for Education teams regarding the AI agent beta, or am I just missing something in the settings?Thank you so much for your help! Have a great day!🙏🏻

你好，我发帖是因为我的 Figma Professional 订阅遇到了一个非常令人困惑的计费问题，我想知道是否有人遇到过同样的情况。我最初购买了一个 Professional Collab 席位，按年计费，价格为 5,940 日元。我并非有意购买全价座位，也并非有意授权付费升舱。然而，我的 Collab 席位后来被更改为正式席位，并且在 2026 年 8 月 28 日，Figma 向我额外收取了费用：座椅调节：23,400日元 税费：2,340日元 总计：25,740日元发票号：9TDJEPRF-0003在管理员面板中，“已满席位”显示如下：“这个人当管理员的时候就进行了自我升级。”问题在于，我并非自愿支付25,740日元进行升级。我也不知道究竟是什么操作触发了这次升级。我已经开通了支持工单#2098020，并要求 Figma 告诉我触发 Collab-to-Full 升级的确切日期、时间和操作，并退还 25,740 日元的费用。当我试图解决这个问题时，情况变得更加混乱了。发现收费后，我尝试将座位从全背式改为协作式，因为协作式是我最初购买的座位类型。我预期订阅状态会从以下位置恢复：专业年度完整版 → 专业年度合作版但事实并非如此。然而，Figma 将我的帐户更改为：我被分配了1个月度协作席位而我现有的：1 个年度全席位空出/可用因此，在尝试降级之后，我的计费配置实际上变成了：年度全席位——未指定月度协作席位——分配给我这完全不是我的本意。我原本并不打算购买新的月度席位，我不明白为什么将我的席位改回 Collab 后，会创建一个单独的月度订阅，而不是恢复我原来的 Collab 年度席位。我最初的订阅内容很简单：1 个专业年度合作席位 — 5,940 日元/年我希望 Figma 能恢复的是：我的账户已分配 1 个专业年度协作席位0 个额外月度席位并退还意外产生的 25,740 日元全座位升级费用。我已经将所有座位审批设置更改为：手动批准座位为协作、开发和完整席位设置，以防止将来自动批准席位请求。我希望 Figma 能就以下问题作出澄清：究竟是哪个用户操作触发了最初的 Collab 到 Full 升级？ 为什么我明明没有购买全价座位，却被收取了 25,740 日元的费用？ 为什么将 Full 改回 Collab 后，会创建一个新的每月 Collab 席位，而不是恢复我现
