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.

i have a button setup that has an animation connected to the arrow, but when i add the overlay to the button it breaks the overlay.what do i do :(this is what it is supposed to do

I saw another post Whyte font is missing from Slides template and it’s solved literally 15 hours ago. But the issue still exist in this design kit where this font family is used as a Text Display styling but not available to most users.I assume it’s a similar problem to that post so I reported it as a bug. If this belongs somewhere else, I’m happy to submit this there.

Hello! I’m doing web design and want to realize this effect.When mouse hovering in a country,1. the country turns dark color2. shows the address information panel accordingly under the small dots.effect reference:  https://www.chinatelecomeurope.com/our-story/office-locations/Should I make component of each country? But I don’t want to drag the instances of them to the map, I can’t keep the exact position of each country. I need your help. thanks 😊 

I want to search for sections that I have titled. I usually keep a flow in a named section, and when I go to search for that text, figma looks through all existing text. This makes finding something in the file super frustrating. Does anyone have advice? Maybe a way they organize stuff to make everything super searchable?

I want to create assets in different sizes in bulk. But you can’t fill in the sizes into your spreadsheet. So how can I create assets in different sizes with the same title, copy and image?

I work for a white label product which depends heavily on the functionality that would be provided by Extended Collections.While we have been using workarounds such as Variable Swapping plugins, *ALL* of the plugins that I've tested end up failing here and there -- It's just not a consistent way to work.So, I've been keeping this feature on my radar for a while now, but it seems to have been removed from the "What Figma features are in beta?" page and the most recent information I have on it is from a Reddit thread from 7 months ago where someone claiming to work at Figma said it was delayed.Does anyone have any information on this feature? I know I'm not the only one who really needs it.

I’m currently handling the UI/UX department solo, and with so many different projects coming in, things are getting pretty intense. I’m producing a ton of work, but as I dive deeper into each project, my files are starting to feel more and more unorganized.When they eventually bring more people onto the team, I want my files to be in a state that’s easy to manage and completely understandable for new colleagues.Do you have any tips for quickly and easily compiling multiple UI libraries into one larger file—without breaking component links to project files?I’m basically wondering if there’s a more efficient way to do this, or if it’s just one of those processes that takes time—and I’ll have to bite the bullet and relink a bunch of projects to a single UI library in the end.

Hey there design freelancers! I was wondering how you are adjusting to the new limitations of the free plan? More specifically, I was wondering what strategies you have found to collaborate with your clients to allow them editing access, who pays for what and how ? It seems to me that the price can really add up if you are working with many clients who need editing access to the design files! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the matter. Cheers

I was SO excited to learn about the Extended Collection feature--until I looked at the help center article, where this will only be available for Enterprise plans. 😭 I work for a b2b that allows for our clients to use their own colors in our product. When testing out the color system in light and dark theme with our default colors, obviously that’s fine...but then swapping the primary color (and sometimes secondary color 💀) to see in light and dark mode is a bit trickier across a bunch of clients.I created a default collection with light/dark theme that uses our primary and secondary colors. I made a second collection with primary and secondary colors to swap out for quick tests or demos..but at that time we were limited to 4 modes. so the ‘modes’ were the companies and the variables were grouped in primary- light theme/ dark theme, secondary- light theme/ dark theme.I guess the allowance of more modes is helpful...but how are others handling this?  

Hey everyone !Not sure that I am the first having this issue but didn’t find a topic describing the exact same problem.I created 4 variants of a component in order to create a rotation effect, here is the component set : The same image with a 90° rotation But when I want to use it, the instance that I could get is only the first variant, even when I select another one :  What am I doing wrong here ? If anyone has any idea how I could make this work, I restarted many times and nothing changed .. Thanks 

Hiya, I need to use a font (Adobe Obviously font family) in Figma. It worked briefly when I installed the font using a figma plugin but then it disappears. It shows the yellow ‘missing fonts’ alert but won’t update when i try to replace it. I only seem to have this issue with that particular Adobe font and it’s really frustrating. (I’m using Figma in browser as i read that this was better for font issues, on macbook) Could anyone help please? Thanks! 

Hey gang Any tips for creating a figma make prototype that respect 5 + breakpoints when importing from a page frames figma design. Currently can only import 1 or 2 frames at a time. Make sometimes goes off script and doesn't create a the correct media enquiries 

I designed a mock-up of my project and I notice when I hit play, the design does not show up and instead shows me a black iphone 16. Is there a fix where I can get my design to show on the iphone? Thanks

Hello, I am facing this problem: My app-developer encountered an asset export issue. A complex icon, composed of stacked vectors (group), is being downloaded with an excessive amount of blank whitespace around it. The actual icon occupies only a small fraction of the exported asset's bounding box.What is the root cause of this behavior and what is the cleanest method to rectify this on the master asset so the developer receives only the minimally necessary area for the icon?I already tried to frame the group, to make it a component, change the export settings and the union selection function, but nothing worked so far.Can you help?Thank you 

Hello, I am facing a problem with my Figma prototype project, which I have embedded on Behance. The issue is that none of the links for external web pages are working on Behance. When I click on a link, it's as if I clicked on plain text. I have checked the links in the Figma prototype, and they are working perfectly there. I have already checked my links—they are accurate—and I have looked for solutions online but haven't found anything helpful. I have read online that the embedding code might be the source of the problem, but I am unable to verify this. I have also checked the sharing settings. One more thing to note: in the edit mode on Behance, the links are working. If anyone knows anything that could help, I am willing to provide the embedd code if that is going to help. Thank you!

Need Help! When I try to export my prototype to useberry from figma, it appears this: But I even reduce the size of my images and still cant export !!!!

Hi! I have my Figma Site in a place to get feedback from my team and when I preview the prototype, everything is responsive as I expected with autolayouts etc. However, when I go to publish, because the page is not a frame, I cannot make the outer frame inside that page “fill” it and be responsive, it just stays that default desktop size. I don’t want to just view my breakpoints, I want to be able to drag my window and have the design take up that space. I must just be missing something obvious.. and appreciate any help! Unfortunately I cannot share it because it is for work, but let me know what other details I can share. Thanks. 

I made a drag animation from 3 frames to make a horizontal scrolling effect. All my animations are ok exept one (frame 2 to frame 1). Some components from frame 1 are fading out when I am dragging, but they show up when I release the drag. I can’t find the problem.. Here is a video to show it. https://vimeo.com/1131363351?fl=ip&fe=ec
