Hi. I’m creating a website design comp in Figma. I want the main top graphic to scale with the window size, which I have working. The issue is that when it scales the distance of the intro copy below changes as well. I'd like to keep the same distance from the header graphic and the intro copy below. thx

how do i preview in mobile layout when i press the present button it always displays the laptop layout but i want to see the phone 

Hi everyone,I’m currently working on a programming assignment for my class and I’ve run into a problem that I can’t seem to figure out. I’ve gone through my notes and tried different approaches, but nothing is working the way it should.I was wondering if anyone here could provide some guidance. Specifically, I’m looking for python homework help on a function that processes lists and returns unique values in sorted order. I think I might be missing something with my loops or set usage.Any advice, explanations, or code examples would be really appreciated!

“Anyone with the link” can view prototypes but users still have to log into Figma. Do users have to still log in? Is there a way to just share without having to log in?

We use Figma Design to create case study assets like social posts, PR visuals, and webpages. What’s great about this is we can share these with the client for review in present mode. This is a key feature that Figma Buzz is missing. We’d be in a position to use Buzz exclusively for our marketing if you could enter present mode.

When I run figma connect create (using html parser) figma.ts are created just fine, but the variant properties are always missing. The boolean and string properties are created consistently. I’ve tried this on numerous different components. Anyone run into this or have any insight on how to address this? 

Hi Figma Support,Since yesterday, I can’t edit text overrides in my existing button/input components with variants. Happens in browser & desktop, multiple accounts, old file versions. New components work fine, old ones like tooltips are fine. Tested without extensions, cleared cache, restarted Figma → still broken. Attaching video demo. Looks like a regression affecting variant text overrides.Thanks,

Hey there!I just published my website using Figma Sites. I connected the right domain and I had no issues with that. The problem is that the website takes forever to load in any screen, and when it comes to mobile it just doesn’t fully load. Even when I try to change my desktop windows sizes, the website crashes all the time.  Is that because I published recently, and must wait for it to “settle”? Or did I do something wrong? Here’s my website: www.deborahavila.com I appreciate immensely any help!

Hey everyone,I'm working on a Figma plugin and have hit a roadblock. My goal is to create a node on a FigJam board that contains a video with standard player controls (play, pause, scrub, etc.).I've been looking through the Figma Plugin API documentation, but I can't seem to find any method like figma.createVideo() or a way to embed a video player directly onto the board. The closest I can get is creating a shape with an image fill.Is there a way to achieve this with the Plugin API, or am I missing something? I need the video to be playable directly on the board, not just a static thumbnail that links out.

My account has passed the educational certification and established a team. So if this team invites other accounts that are not educational certification accounts, can they use the dev mode?

How to download Figma make file in html Locally. Thanks,Popin

I want to use Figma Slides to create my portfolio. When I try to add video to the portfolio, it asks me to pay a subscription fee. If I make a one time payment of a monthly fee, add the videos to the portfolio and publish the same, and then cancel the subscription, will people be able to see my videos on the portfolio?

I hope this message finds you well. We have submitted our application for Figma for Education verification as a trusted bootcamp provider, but until now we have not received any response. Our bootcamp is already running, and participants are currently working on their final projects, with Figma as the main learning and collaboration tool.Could you please respond, where are we going to receive verification as bootcamp provider???

Hello!I'm using the "Figma Make" function, but the "domain connection" is not working properly, so I'm making a technical inquiry.1. Is there a way to download something made of "figma make" to html, css, js, react, etc?2. Is there a way to turn off the SSL provided by Figma and use external authentication SSL?I'm trying to connect an existing domain, but it doesn't work.If you know how, can you tell me?Thank you always!

My goal is to integrate an animated carousel into my Figma Site, but I haven’t gotten it to work. I made a working carousel in a design file, using Smart Animate to animate the transitions between slides, but once I copy and pasted into my Figma Site, it stopped working in the preview and when published. I also remade the carousel in the Site file, but that didn’t change anything. The structure of my carousel is identical to the one in this video: 

The problem:I have a hover button with 3 states - default/hover/activeWhen I add this component to my design and add a new interaction like “Swap Overlay” it takes several clicks to get it to swap overlays.Now, this was working fine some time back and isn’t the case for everything.I submitted this problem to customer support and, after giving them access to my files, they said:“just make a panel with the default state. then, when hovering over the button, make it switch to the new panel with the hover state, and then click thru from there to swap the overlay”And that sounded incredibly stupid. Afterall, this doesn’t actually solve any issues to what appears to be a bug.So my question is: is this happening for others?

Is there any way to make the slack intagration to work in the browser version of Figma to see comments from figma to slack? 

when i first load the tab the pngs look correct, but when i zoom in at all….they look darker and weird.  they also export darker and weird... 

I love how fast Figma Make is right now. I also like not hitting limits or having to use “credits” to make requests, like the planned announcement. I would be willing to spend no more than $40/month for unlimited access to Figma Make when the new payment structure is rolled out, but nothing like $200/mo because I am a single freelance designer who is not associated with a big corporation that would be willing to pay my monthly subscription bills.What would be your willingness to spend to keep figma make as fast as it is right now for you as a single, freelance designer who is not associated with a big company?

Have created a little portfolio website however one page when going onto Present keeps wildly glitching (wont scroll unless you double click and scroll, will also jump to different sections?)- have gone through all my layers and all sorts but cannot find out why this keeps happening, the other screens do not have this issue and have been designed exactly the same, overflow is on vertical as well….pls help!
