I mistakenly granted edit access to a teammate, which temporarily assigned a paid Full seat and generated a one-time charge ($18.57). I’ve removed the access — is there any way to cancel or avoid this charge?

I am looking for a reliable way to export your Outlook calendar entries to Excel for easier analysis, reporting, or backup? Have you noticed that Outlook’s manual export often misses important details or creates formatting issues? If so, have you tried using the PST Migration Tool, which preserves all calendar fields and supports smooth, bulk conversions? Did the tool help you maintain data accuracy and save time while exporting large or multiple calendars? If you’ve used it, we’d love to hear your experience. Would you recommend the PST Migration Tool to others looking for a dependable Outlook-to-Excel solution?

windowsデスクトップ版を使用しています。今まで表示されていたフォントが表示されなくなりました。（モリサワフォントなど）他のillustratorなどでは表示されています。figmaを再インストールしたりモリサワフォントをログインしなおしたりしましたが効果がありませんでした。windowsのアップデート後に表示されなくなった気がするのですが、直し方ご存じの方教えてください。

depois dessa atualização não achei mais as opções de fontes que tinha antes o tamanho do texto e nem que tipo de fonte ele está usando

When a user adds a comment to Figma by click/dragging a box around something - is there away to turn this into a regular comment attached to a frame?The problem with these comments is they don’t follow Frames when moved using “Move to Page” like regular comments. There doesn’t seem to be away to move them without losing them - and I haven’t found away to change a comment done in this way to attach to an artboard - then move it.It’s pretty annoying as I don’t want to lose clients comments when organising the file.Any ideas? Am I missing something? Thanks in advance! 😊

All the semantic variables are just hex values the reference colors (primitive palette) are stored in STYLES instead of variables The semantic roles are doubled both in the vairables and the styles the components themselves consume the styles instead of the variables The option to generate the color table is not a checkbox like the documentation claims. its just a link to the plugin page? I just want a simple monochrome app with one accent color for my CTA. VERY standard stuff. I don’t want this weird multicolor rainbow library that gives me PINK cards. What is going on???…. It’s a literal nightmare. I can’t see how to use or customise it systematically, or why any of these decisions were made. Is there anybody here who has successfuly used it and actually understands how it works??

Hey all, I am finally getting round to trialing out Code Connect, Figma MCP and the like to see how it all works and if there are any noticeable benefits to these features for my wider team.I had some issues initially setting up, but have finally gotten to the point where I can connect them to GitHub, for testing  purposes I am using the Figma Design System and corresponding coded components. However when connected, I get this error, and I am unsure how to fix it. Has anyone come across this before, and any advice on how to resolve? Thanks!  

Hey,I just found through this video https://youtu.be/GbfUHfCocIY?t=802 that’s possible to change images by changing variable modes. At some point in the video (minute 18:17) we can see a string variable “Team ID” which is probably what he’s using in the images properties. But we don’t manage to see how he’s applying it.First of, I can only apply the variable to an instance, not the actual component. I tried to do that and then from that instance create a new component, it does seem over engineered, but it does work. However I have an issue where if I change the mode once, it works, but if I try to change again it doesn’t work.So I’m not sure what would be the right way to replicate what’s in the video.Any thoughts?

I’m currently working with the Figma API and trying to retrieve data from a specific branch within my file. While I’ve identified the branch ID from the URL (e.g., https://www.figma.com/design//branch//...), I haven’t found any documentation indicating how to dynamically call or access branches using the API.Here are my questions:Is it possible to query a list of available branches or fetch branch-specific details using the Figma API?How can the branch_id parameter be utilized correctly in API requests, and are there any specific configurations required to access branches?Are there limitations or additional permissions needed to retrieve branch-specific content?For reference, I’m trying to execute the following API call with the branch_id parameter:

Ok so I know theres loads of topics on this - but Im not sure I’ve seen one mention components, hence the new convo. TL;DR - I have a card containing 2 columns. I want the card to have column 1 smaller than the other. So Column 1 would be say, 25% the width of the card and column 2 would be 75% Now I see a lot of replies about setting fixed widths for column 1, fill for column 2…. about setting constraints etc, but this does not work, especially when working in components.  My card component has the variables of 1 or 2 columns, and of course - can be used in various screens, places, layouts and screen sizes. The card works beautifully when the columns are 50/50 scaling to my screen size, but just do not work at all for other width needs. Whats more, when I have my component, there is no way to override the widths of my internal columns unless I detach the component - breaking my whole system, and negating the whole point of components. Seriously s

 I’m trying to make a table with these parameters:4 columns Individual cells in columns 1–3 (like “expected shipment date”, expected delivery date”...) The table has to stretch horizontally proportionally with content always staying in its columns Columns 1–3 are grouped with the borderI don’t see how this is achievable in an adequate way. The way I did it now is having a second table underneath just for borders for columns 1–3 (“table 2” layer). With one layer it’s only possible to:Sacrifice grouping columns 1–3, then each cell will have it’s own border. Sacrifice stretching, then you can just adjust the cell’s border. Group columns 1–3 and use auto-stretching auto layout inside, but columns won’t stretch proportionally.Do you see any way to achieve that?

Hey all, I’m just getting round to investigating the native variable export options and have a question relating to $extensions .How relevant is this information outside of the Figma ecosystem? If I was to export this and add this to my GitHub Repository, should this just be something that I remove, and if so is there a way to exclude this from the export at all?If I understand correctly, that information is possibly only meant for importing into another file, but I just wanted to validate that assumption before hand.Some example code below to illustrate:"green": { "500": { "100A": { "$type": "color", "$value": { "colorSpace": "srgb", "components": [ 0.13333334028720856, 0.5254902243614197, 0.3960784375667572 ],

We are currently not using variable modes, because our developers don’t get a clear enough inspection experience in Dev Mode.I would like to ask all of you 2 things:1. Do you know a solution that makes variable modes more explicit in Dev Mode?2. Can anyone please share how the new extended collections feature looks like when inspecting in Dev Mode? I want to know if it gives the developers a better experience there…Thank you in advance :)

I’ve noticed uncomfortable lags when I share my screen via MS Teams and present something in Figma Desktop. It feels like fps drops drastically - from 60 to around 15-20. Mouse hover feedbacks with a noticeable delay. These lags I started notice after updating to macOS Sequoia. My setup: Macbook Pro 2021 M1 Pro with 32GB RAM, macOS Sequoia 15.0 External monitor HP Z27 connected via usb-c thunderbolt Figma Desktop 124.4.7 MS Teams for mac Version 24244.507.3125.3475 I started investigating to identify the root cause and so far I figured out the next: The issue is only with Figma Desktop and MS Teams mac app. If I use Figma in browser or MS Teams in browser, everything is smooth. The issue is more noticeable with UI3. When I switch back to previous UI, it works much smoother, however not perfect and smooth as without sharing. When I share the internal Macbook screen the issue is less to not not

 Trying to create hamburger menu that opens a popup menu in Figma Sites, nothing works. please help!

Hi everyone, I’m currently working on an ecommerce website project and would love to get some community insights. As online shopping continues to evolve rapidly, I’m interested in learning:What are the most essential design elements for a high-converting ecommerce website? Which UI/UX trends should we prioritize in 2026 (product pages, cart flow, search)? How do you balance performance with rich visuals on ecommerce platforms? What tools, frameworks, or plugins do you recommend for responsive ecommerce design? Any examples of Figma ecommerce templates or components that have worked well?I’m especially interested in real-world examples, recommended workflows, and tips on optimizing checkout flows for better conversion rates.Looking forward to your ideas and resources!

Hi everyone,I used to copy an image (Ctrl+C from browser or local folder) and then paste it (Ctrl+V) directly into an image component in Figma - like for cards or avatar images - and it would automatically replace the image.But recently, this no longer works. When I try pasting, nothing happens. Now Figma only shows options like “Upload from computer” or “Make an image” (screenshot attached).I’m wondering: is this a recent change or bug in Figma?Is there still a way to paste an image directly into a component without having to upload it manually?Thanks in advance!  

I have used 3 different libraries in my page and have kept everything updated. The components I used in my work files are auto updating and somehow changing schemas and sizes without me or my team touching them. I am not able to track these as well on what has changed. Some frames which are marked for dev have changes as well and we dont have any notice or indication of this. Am I going wrong somewhere or is this a bug from figma?I looked at the history and I dont see any one touching anything. 

The problem is that I ran out of space in my email, so the letter wasn't sent. I freed up some space, but the letter still hasn't arrived. How can I get a link to restore the team again? support hasn't responded to me for 24 hours

Why does the slice tool move everything out of the way instead of sitting on top of what you want to slice? It does this even if I’m on the top frame. Coming from adobe I’m completely lost as to why this functions like this. The goal here is to get half of a section exported. Is there another way to do this?  

Hello. We are looking for a way to create banners at scale in various sizes (ex. 300x250, 250x250, 970x250). The solution right now is that we are using a Component that we copy over all the banners. And that works for one single set. The trouble shows up when we try to have 2 (Master) Components within the same file. Basically Component A (image) drives many banners.But if we copy Component A (image) to become Component B (image), the connects to its associated banners are lost. Can this be done in Figma - directly? Or Buzz? Or using a plugin? Thank you.

Hi everyone,I’m working on a design case study for a client and I need to create a key visual and then adapt it into at least 10 different digital ad formats (Instagram feed, stories, reels, YouTube banner, email header, display ads, etc.). I’d like to automate this process in Figma using Auto Layout + Variables, so that when I update the main KV (texts, colors, images), all other formats adapt automatically.I already know the basics of Auto Layout, but I’m not sure how to structure the file to make it scalable and avoid manually adjusting every format.Do you have any tips, workflows, or even free plugins/templates that could help me speed this up?Thanks a lot 🙏

I've been setting up a webhook integration to monitor file changes, and I ran into some confusing behavior with the FILE_UPDATED event. I'm sharing my findings here in case it helps someone else, and to confirm if this is the intended behavior.My Setup:Plan: Professional Plan Authentication: Personal Access Token Scopes: My token has webhooks:write, file_content:read, and file_comments:read permissions. Integration Tool: I'm using n8n (a workflow automation tool) which receives the webhook events. My n8n instance has a public URL and is reachable by Figma. Webhook Event: FILE_UPDATED 

I want to use a pen tablet in Figma Design. It basically works out of the box. The `Pencil` tool supports pen pressure, but how can I disable this?I want always to draw with a fixed width (like when I use a mouse). For example, in Photoshop, we can easily disable pen pressure from brush settings. 

Hi everyone,I have been trying to import JSON file in Figma variables, But run into error all the time.This is my JSON code, what I’m doing wrong? is there any documentation for JSON format?[ { "name": "neutral/50", "type": "COLOR", "value": "#F6F5F4", "description": "Page backgrounds, app canvas" }, { "name": "neutral/600", "type": "COLOR", "value": "#796F6B", "description": "Tertiary text, metadata" }, { "name": "neutral/700", "type": "COLOR", "value": "#5E5652", "description": "Body text alternative" }, { "name": "neutral/800", "type": "COLOR", "value": "#453E3B", "description": "High-emphasis body text" }, { "name": "neutral/900", "type": "COLOR", "value": "#2D2825", "description": "Pri
