Right sidebar (property panel) not accepting inputs in specific file

Hello,
today I updated Figma to Figma Desktop App version 116.18.6 and I noticed that general inputs in the properties panel (right sidebar) are not working.

This includes numeric inputs via keyboard (font size for example – it lets me type in a new value, when hitting enter jumps back to old value) but also clickable inputs like text orientation or auto-layout settings. At first I thought this was due to component restraints but even creating a new object results in this.

Creating a new document and pasting the elements there works.
Restarting Figma also works, but only for a couple of minutes.

This is a semi complex file with a prototype and about two dozen linked frames. I would prefer not starting over because the prototype link is kind of established within the team.

Any hints on solving this or similar experiences?

Thanks, Jonas

    Same here. After refresh the issue is fixed but it’s really frustrating

    +1. The same goes for my PC application and web version (Chrome).

    Thank you for opening the topic.

    I’m experiencing this as well… I have to restart every 5 minutes or so.

      Seems to work again! Worked for a couple of hours within the file today without any issues.
      Thanks so much for the quick reaction!
