Question

Unable to select text

I’m suddenly unable to edit any text layers in Figma, across all files, pages, and even brand new files—affecting both my main and secondary accounts.

This has been posted by someone else previously BUT the fix that worked for them does not work for me.

Please help, I have clients waiting for amendments that I cannot do for them

Do you have any images to share?

I have managed to resolve this issue. WooHoo!!

I ended up downloading the desktop App, opened a (local) downloaded Figma file (NOT EVEN THE SAME FILE!), then went back to the online version and it worked.

Weird! 

But now sorted

I have the same problem — I simply can’t select text in the output. Why did you mess it up again?

Why the f*** did you set user-select: none???? What kind of stupidity is that??
