Why is there no plan for UI designers / developers? I would only need Figma design, the new Figma site and Figma dev .  But nothing. Will they add more plans later?

Hello, We use 8 point border radius in a few projects but Figma doesn’t have the level of control we need. Example: https://9elements.github.io/fancy-border-radius/full-control.htmlborder-radius: 55% 16% 59% 10% / 54% 7% 26% 10%  We use an elaborate group of shapes to build these larger shapes but it’s a bit clunky and devs need to approximate these radius. Question: How do would you solve this? 

Greetings.I’m so used to the function of ctrl + click, which ends the current line while you’re using the pen in edit mode, allowing you to start another line inside the same shape. Basically, it does the same job as esc key, but much more convenient. But as of the new update, it actually has the same function that it does outside of edit mode: Selecting nested layers…Now I don’t know about you, but the whole point of the EDIT MODE has been isolating the selection from everything else. It becomes quite annoying when I wanna end my current line and I have to look for somewhere empty to click, in order to end the line and not select some other layer. Is there an option to keep other layers isolated while in the edit mode? I’ve been used to this function for the past 5 years and I don’t wanna go back to extending my pinky towards the goddamn esc key! Worse is when I have a picture under my lines, and it will always exits the edit mode and selects the picture if I ctrl + c

Hey FamHope you’re well.It may be something simple but i feel im too deep in my work at the moment to realise it. When i select Preview option - all my pages fit perfectly. When i select Present - all the screens i have created sit to the right a bit like they dont fit. Any suggestions on what i might be doing wrong?  Preview viewPresent view

Hello to the Community!My problem is the following:I want to make a Login Screen and when 2 Textfields are prefilled with the correct values, the Login Button state should swtich from inactive to active.What I already did:Defined the components with the right pre-defined variables Used a boolean for the button state and linked it to the button Tried out manually in the Variants panel - works Put the button active logic into the password section, so it will be activated as a top down expirience Linked directly the textfield to the pre-defined variables, not the whole ObjectThe logic I am using is:When User field is filled correctly, userCheck Boolean becomes True When Password field is filled correctly, passwordCheck Boolean becomes True When userCheck and passwordCheck are True, loginButton should become TrueFor the rest, see the attachments

So, I feel like making something that’s not text (like for example, a vector shape) look like it’s italic. Like, is it even possible?

Title. Looking to get some metadata around plugin/widget use, is this possible? Thanks!

Can someone help me pls??? I recently heard about the figma sites but I started creating my website in design. Is it possible to copy and past the layouts that are ready for the figma sites ir I need to do everything again from the beginning? 

 Hello, I want to ask why the side menu in figma blurs when I don't put my mouse on it.

Hello guys! I did some simple UI animations for icons in game menu. And when animation is running some elements are twitching by a few pixels, it looks really buggy. These are both the icons themselves and the frames in which they are located. You can see really clear this happens on photo and frame with bears. Please help, I’m tired of looking for a solution to this problem. I don’t know, maybe I did something wrong or is it just Figma bug… Here’s the link to my prototype: https://www.figma.com/file/2Hue9Fq39fu9iy1NUlkxZd/Test-UI-Farm?node-id=0%3A1&t=ko7PLwdcMiTHHLbD-1 Here’s video of my issue: Recording #3 - YouTube Here’s picture of element broken:

Estoy haciendo un curso de AutoLayout y resulta que con las nuevas actualizaciones no encuentro ciertas funcionalidades. Un caos. ¿Alguien que me pueda decir dónde puedo encontrar una guía actualizada de cómo encontrarlas ahora? Para los que somos nuevos en Figma es realmente difícil poder aprender. ¡Desde ya muchas gracias!

Hi Figma Community!I'm working on building a robust Stepper component for my companies design library,  and I've hit a bit of a snag with Auto Layout and responsiveness when combined with multiple components.What I've Achieved So Far:I've successfully built a functional Stepper component that allows designers to:Switch between different numbers of steps (e.g., 3-step, 4-step, 5-step variations). Control the state of each step (inactive, active, completed - where completed steps show a checkmark instead of a number). Toggle the visibility of optional text titles beneath each step indicator.The Challenge: Responsive Behavior with Auto LayoutWhere I'm struggling is making the entire stepper component responsive while preserving all the variant functionality. My goal is to allow designers to drag an instance of the Stepper and resize its overall width. When they do this:

Does anybody know why am I getting a glitchy animation when I try to make an expandible menu? Like an accordion dropdown. When I want to animate a frame or a rectangle from the size A to size B, it works but with a visual glitch, and it’s more noticeable when using rounded corners. I made a basic animation, click the small rectangle, it expands, click again, it goes to the start size… there are 2 versions, one of them with rounded corners, one without them. Here is a screenshot of the glich when I play the animation. I would love to post a video but I can’t do that yet (I’m pretty new to the forums).

Hey all, Trying to figure out how I can nest components so my text does not realign when I hide an icon in the same component. I hide the icon using properties but it moves the label text to the left, I want that text to remain in line with the other labels. Any help would be appreciated thank you! 

I have the same parts of text (2 words) across different parts of text across different Figma frames (on the same page), and I want to make them in bold style.How can I do this?Maybe with any Figma plugin, like “Find and Replace”, but replace also style of the text.

My Figma files are getting slow, especially when working on projects with multiple pages, large images, and complex components. It lags while scrolling and editing.What I’ve tried:Reducing image sizes before uploading. Using fewer shadows and effects. Closing unnecessary files.Question: Are there specific best practices or plugins that can help optimize Figma performance?

Hi, we have created a custom Figma Plugin using Enterprise plan.Can it be used by users who have other types of plan? If yes, how can we get provide them the access?Thank you!

New to figma, I just wanted to grab some wireframing libraries and rapid prototype some stuffbut nothing works.As you can see in the screenshot, they’re added to my team, added to my project, they don’t show up in the asset side bar even though i’m looking at “all libraries” so i cannot easily grab the components. Only the default 3 libraries show up in the sidebar.What am I doing wrong? this is beyond frustrating. Also the flow of “publishing” libraries from the community page makes no sense to begin with. I’m not publishing them, if anything I’m importing them. Why for such a popular product is this not more simple?  

Lately I’ll be looking in my right bar to change a property, and I keep scanning and can’t find it. Then I realize it’s hidden under a “Show more properties” button – aaargh! I’m guessing maybe you’ve done this to avoid the UI feeling overwhelming, but for intermediate and advanced users, it’s frustrating to have: 1) an extra click, and 2) an unpredictable/changing UI. (Not sure it’s actually beneficial for beginner users either.) So maybe there could be a setting to never show that? Or you use AI to detect if a user is novice? Or just kill the button for everyone? 👺

Hi everyone, I wanna ask if there is a way to make gradient color blocks(like the attach image) on Figma, I know you can do it on illustrator but I am wondering if there is a way to do this on figma? Or if there is a plugin that can do this? Basically each block is a color that can be use as a single color instead of a gradient block, but when put together, you can see a it’s gradient (if that make sense).  

Hello, the AI feature is missing in the app — it's not available in the beta version, the regular version, or even when using a different account. The option simply doesn't exist. I've updated the app and saw the patch notes, but the AI feature still hasn't appeared. Please help.123

Love the new annotations, but my designs are dark and so are my annotations. I discovered it’s tied to the theme you select for Figma. I use dark theme so I’m getting black annotations. Is there any way to change the annotation theme without changing your Figma workspace theme? Also, will it present to others in the theme they have chosen regardless of my theme?
