Hi everyone,We’re currently on the Figma Professional plan and we are in the process of building a central design system library that we want to reuse across all the website projects we work on.In this library, we’ve created:• Naming conventions for typography (font families, sizes, line heights, semantic text tokens)• Color tokens and color styles• Variable collections for colors, typography, spacing, etc.• Starter layout components like headers, footers, accordions, “media + text” sections, and other common section patternsOur goal is to publish this library and then use it as the foundation for every new website project we create.However, we need the following workflow to be possible: We want to import / enable the library in a new project and have access to all typography tokens, color variables, and components. We want the core components (headers, sections, etc.) to remain usable and connected to the library, not detached. For each new project, we need to be able to adjust th

Since I’m translating from Korean, some parts may sound a bit awkward. Thank you for your understanding.Our company has five users on the Professional plan, but we were informed that only five full seats are included.We need three additional full-seat users. I’d like to know how we can increase the number of available full seats or how to assign additional full-seat users.We’re still a small company, but we expect to add at least 5–7 more users. Could you advise us on how to resolve this situation or suggest the best way forward?

I’m using an Education plan and the Draw Mode / Design Mode toggle doesn’t appear in any of my design files, even after clearing cache and updating the app. Could you confirm if this feature is rolled out to Education accounts? I couldn't verify it in all the files.  

Hi! I’m a UX/UI Design student and I’m trying to create my portfolio website in Figma Sites. I already have my case study files created in Figma Design. I would think that this would be quick and easy to copy & paste my frames from Design to Sites...I was wrong. While I am able to copy the frame into the primary frame (desktop) in Figma Sites, I have to adjust every single layer to fit in the responsive frames for tablet & mobile. Is this just the way it works? Or am I doing this the hard way? It feels like I’m having to recreate each frame. I have watched a handful of Youtube videos on how to use Figma Sites, but it only shows it starting from scratch. Not importing an already existing Figma file. So I have a few questions, I have not been able to find the answers to.  1. When copying & pasting a frame from Figma Design into Figma Sites, It is not the same size as the desktop/parent frame in Figma Sites. When adjusting the width, I have to adjust all of the other layers to

Need: the ability to move an annotation to another side of a component/frame/whatever, anywhere I want so that it is not blocking anything.

Hi Figma Support Team,I have deleted my Figma account, but one of my designs was published in Figma Community. This design is my website design and I want it to be private for my use only. Please remove it from the Community. Thank you very much!

I have a component that displays two action icons on hover. This is actually a commonly used standard behaviour. The hover is instant. The actions are Settings and Delete. However, when I leave the hover with mouse leave, the icons remain visible, which they should not, as the component does not display these icons by default (they are hidden).But that only happens when I hover over the actions. As long as I don't "touch" them, the parent component works as expected.Where is the mistake?  

Hello.I don’t really understand the difference between text background and gradient background messages in color contrast feature of figma. In which case and why it shows these messages. In attached images the properties of the texts are the same but contrast messages are different and I can’t really understand why. Thanks in advance

Hey everyone,Hoping to get some help from the community on a design project. I'm currently building a detailed UI kit and prototype in Figma based on the new block textures and interface elements from the latest Minecraft beta.I'm working with the files from the most recent build I could find, which is from here:https://minecraftfullgamedev.github.io/MinecraftFullGameDev/I'm running into some strange issues when I bring the assets into my Figma project, and I'm wondering if anyone has experienced something similar.The Core Problem in DetailWhen I extract the UI elements (like the hotbar, health icons, and chest interfaces) and import them as SVGs or PNGs, they don't seem to render correctly in the Figma canvas.Here are the specific issues I'm facing: Color Inconsistency: The colors of certain blocks and items appear washed out or slightly different from how they look in the game. It feels like a color space mismatch, but I can't seem to fix it. Vector Rendering Artifacts: Some of the

Trying to create an overlay in my Figma Sites portfolio, but it doesn’t seem to work. Has anyone encountered this issue?

Hello Figma Support Team,I am a figma user for a long time and currently using professional plan for my company. I was accidentially created a dev seat (under 24 hour ago) and would like to ask a refund for this seat. I really hope Figma Support Team could help me in this situation. If you need any additional information, please tell me, i will try my best. Best regard!

When using Figma, how can I let outside contractors work on some design files while keeping certain components or libraries private for my internal team?

I have already made a prototype and found that the first two slides are not displayed when I present the project. I have found information that I need to set the "starting frame" on the slide I want. However, even though I have more than two slides and there are connections between the slides, the button is still missing.

Hey everyone,I've been really inspired by the new winter theme in the latest BGMI 4.1 update and decided to put together a small UI/UX concept in Figma exploring some ideas for the in-game event interface. I'm hoping to get some feedback from the talented designers here:👉👉👉 https://modhello.com/ 👈👈👈Concept OverviewThe main idea was to create a more immersive and intuitive interface for the new "Frosty Funland" event. I focused on clean design principles while trying to capture the new wintery, penguin-themed aesthetic. The goal is a seamless user experience that feels integrated with the overall game design.Key Features of the Redesign Interactive Event Hub: A centralized hub for all event-related activities, featuring a dynamic 3D model of the new "Penguin Town." Streamlined Mission Tracking: Redesigned the mission and progress layout to be more visual. I've used a card-based system for daily and weekly challenges, which I think is more scannable. Themed Reward Showcase: A m

Hi! I am new to Figma and trying to make a drop down menu. I made a test frame, put the asset in it and presented it to try it out, There is a blank screen. What did I do wrong/how can I fix it?   

how can i resize the length of this shape but have the height stay unbothered? it keep stretching the sides but it want it to stay the same.  

  Anyone else feels Figma runs slower after long work sessions with 20 tabs open? 

I’ve tried several times to verify my student account, but each attempt says I’ve exceeded the limit for the student plan. When I use old verification links, they’re expired, forcing me to start over.I’ve also contacted SheerID multiple times, but they keep sending the same automated response:They mentioned missing details like “No Program ID,” “No Verification ID,” and “External User ID Not Present,” but I don’t understand what these mean or how to fix them.Could you please help reset my verification attempts or guide me on how to start fresh? I’ve been trying for quite some time without any success.

I am the admin and sole Full Seat in an enterprise/company account. Lately I feel like Figma changed the way they do permissions but I can’t put my finger on it. I saw a thread where people reported users getting 3-day access when they request an upgrade (I am truly shocked -- that is a huge security and file integrity risk). I don’t think I’ve come across that yet but I’m very stressed at the prospect. Today’s weird details:Someone I’ve never heard of in my company requested to edit a file, and I clicked DENY (I’m the only designers and closely guard the files). In fact I don’t remember anyone ever requesting to edit a file, and I’ve gotten TWO edit requests this week. I went into admin to double check, and there was this guy listed with a FULL SEAT. I hovered over it and it said he was manually approved by me just before! I had to change his access to Collab (the only files I’ve allowed people to edit are FigJam files).  I’m not going pretend it couldn’t have been user error, but I h

Have a question about using Figma? Can i restrict copying and sharing on files with Education Plan?

Hello Figma Support Team,I am contacting you because I no longer have access to the email address linked to my Figma account. The email address was registered with a phone number belonging to a person who has sadly passed away, which makes it impossible to regain access through the usual recovery process.Here are the details:- Old email address: [redacted by moderator to remove personal information] - New email address: [redacted by moderator to remove personal information]- Email provider: [redacted by moderator to remove personal information]- Account username [redacted by moderator to remove personal information]The email provider (myMail by Mail.ru) confirmed that recovery is only possible by SMS verification or phone number confirmation. Since the registered phone number is no longer available, recovering the mailbox directly is not an option.To prove account ownership, I can provide:- The approximate date when I created the Figma account [I can't remember exactly, but it seems li

Current SituationDesigners at my company often misunderstand Figma’s library concept and create their own libraries instead of using the official ones. Our existing libraries were migrated from Sketch and are being rebuilt with new themes, tokens, and therefore, new Figma variables. Everything is new, and we’re working hard to keep it consistent.Our GoalKeep the main files editable only by 3 designers Allow developers of our design system team to use Dev Mode fully in our main files, which requires enabling “Viewers can copy, save, and export from this file.” Ensure designers can see and use our library in the Asset Panel without being able to copy or duplicate the main file.Current IssueIf users are not viewers of the main file, they cannot see the library in the Asset Panel. If they are viewers, they gain the ability to copy assets or duplicate the file, because developers need that permission for Dev Mode. This has led to a recurring problem where people duplicate libraries or copy

I’d like to update my forum name to match my community profile if that is possible. https://www.figma.com/@primetime Who can I reach out to?

Any format of images are not visible in preview mode/prototype, but visible while export as PDF/.JPG/.PNG. Have debugged basic problem like frames, blend, fill etc… Anyone have any idea about this? I stucked with this problem☹️

I have created a component with two layers of text on a curve/path. When I use instances of this component, both text layers do not match the original component’s location. I’ve tried changing the contraints for these layers to everything and nothing seems to help. Any ideas?
