Would you please give advice how could I turn off "Prototype" TAB?


Karina Kulakova

I prefer to use a limited design where I can see fonts, colors, size and so on. It seems that I have changed my settings and now “Prottype” TAB is installed…. I woud like to go back to previous settings - to “Properties type”.

Hey Karina,

The properties panel in Figma adjusts based on your file access level and seat type.

  • In your screenshot, it seems that you have can edit access, this is why you see the 'Design' and 'Prototype' tabs. (this can’t be changed)
  • To have the ‘Properties’ type, only user with can view access to a file, or have a viewer or viewer-restricted seat on a paid plan, can see in the properties panel: Comment and Properties tabs.

For more information, you can check our guide here: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039832014-Design-prototype-and-explore-layer-properties-in-the-right-sidebar 

Hope this clarifies!
