Toggle layer visibility bug?

Same issue here as well. Figma V126.7.10. Cant work like that. Whenever showing or hiding one element and if I then hover over others - that action gets applied to all of them when hovered as well. Oh it happens in the browser as well..not only in the app.

Hello,

I encountered what appears to be a bug with layer visibility toggling.

Expected behavior

Clicking the visibility (eye) icon should toggle only that layer.

If I want to toggle multiple layers, I should have to keep the mouse button pressed while dragging over additional eye icons.

After releasing the mouse button, dragging the cursor should not continue toggling visibility.

Actual behavior

1. Click the visibility (eye) icon of any layer.
2. Release the mouse button.
3. Move the cursor over other eye icons in the Layers panel.

The visibility of every eye icon that the cursor passes over continues to toggle, as if Figma still thinks the mouse button is being held down.

The issue stops only after clicking somewhere else in the interface.

Environment

• Windows 11
• Latest desktop version
• Also reproduced in the web version
• Also reproduced in Incognito mode
• Reproduced in every file (new and existing)
• Reproduced with multiple mice
• Reproduced after launching an older Figma version
• Windows itself does not show any mouse button issues (tested outside Figma)

What I already tested

• Different mouse
• Different USB ports
• Desktop app
• Web app
• Incognito mode
• Older Figma version
• Multiple files
• New empty file
• ClickLock is disabled in Windows
• Mouse behaves normally in other applications

The problem only occurs inside Figma.

I have attached a short screen recording demonstrating the issue.

Thank you.

Reproducible both on Desktop macOS and web. That’s what happens when you rely on AI for development. Keep vibecoding.

When clicking AND RELEASING on the layer visibility icon, the app will behave as if I were holding down click and any layer I mouse over will toggle visibility. Just began today July 30, 2026, so whatever this newest version of Figma windows desktop is. Currently having to use keyboard shortcut to toggle visibility states. 

Same here. Started experiencing it on Figma desktop (win) all of a sudden. I am on an urgent task now and I can’t work like this... Please and please and please fix it as soon as possible!

Have an issue that started today where if I click to lock or hide a layer in a ‘Design’ window and then move my mouse not holding the button down, it then starts locking or hiding any layer the mouse icon moves over. No idea why it's doing it. Or if I've adjusted a setting!

Does anyone have any idea why it’s doing it?

Same thing happening here. It's very frustrating when trying to work!
