I’ve added a prototype to my slide, but it is quite obviously pixelated. The frame for the prototype is 1512x982. The prototype looks fine on it’s own, but once it’s placed in slides, it seems like it gets downscaled, specifically to 400x259. Any ideas on what I’m missing? Attached are three pictures: 1. The view directory from the prototype, 2. Immediately after adding to Slides, and 3. After scaling up to fit the space in Slides View from prototype (1512x982) size once added to prototype (400x259) blurry once scaled up (1146x742)

Why are Ukrainians not allowed to sell their files? We are not responsible for the situation that is currently happening between the two countries. I am a designer, and I want to earn additional income for my effort and my work! I believe it is unfair that we do not have the opportunity to share our creations “for a fee,” especially since no one knows how long the war will last. Please open access, because this is not fair to us as people and as designers.

I received this email, I am on a student plan for an online bootcamp course- DesignLab. I need to extend my student plan. I tried resubmitting a verification status and got this message below. Not sure what to do, I need at least 4 more weeks of the plan. Please any help would be appreciated!

In my Figma mobile prototype, I have a bottom navigation bar set to ‘Fix position when scrolling’. It appears correctly in desktop prototype preview (with iPhone 14 device selected) but when I open the shared prototype link on my actual phone, the bar is not visible until I change it ‘scroll with parent’. How can I make it appear fixed and visible immediately on mobile?

I create a concept in Figma Make and want to test it with the team and potentially with customers, but they can see my underbelly chat. Is there a way to hide the chat?

Hi, I have a side panel with buttons, and when clicking on one of the categories, the main screen slides to the correct categories. This works great. The buttons are in variant components with three states (default, hover, and selected). When I click on the button, I have two interactions set up in the prototype: ‘scroll to’ (to scroll to the section) ‘change to’ : state = selected My issue is that I want the button to go back to the default state when I click on another one. Is there a way to do that? (for now, they all become selected when I click one after the other). Thank you in advance, Anaïs

I just can’t extract an image using Figma MCP. As you can see its successful, but it gives me a url like this, which doesn’t point to anything hence the images do not get rendered. Also attaching my Figma MCP settings. And before anyone talks about it losing context etc because of the size. This is what I’m exporting, just this… Because I just want to find out how to do a successful export with an image.

I am finding it difficult to draw the editable vector diagram from an image. Can anyone please suggest the method to do it? I tried using the pen tool and I am finding it exteremely difficult to do it in the same proportions. Attched is the image

Automatically linking color variables with text styles. Everytime i apply body(p), I want the color variable linked to it also to be applied. Any work around right now?

Hi all, I think it could be a bug or I am missing something? Please, advise. I have a component called Rectangle with 4 variants (2 for grey and 2 for black). I also have two pages where that component is used. Initial setup is here. There is an interaction on variants On Click - Change to... When I play a prototype and on Screen 1 change the Rectangle variant to “small” and then go to screen 2 - i see Rectangle Small variant there as well, which i am not supposed to as Figma handles instances and their variants independently. Any advise on this please, Thank you, Natasha

Currently, only Preview and Code edit modes are visible. Are additional editing modes accessible?

I keep using my education account for a year, but today i need to login to another PC, there is “Signups from this email domain are not permitted. If you believe this is an error, please contact Figma at support+compliance@figma.com.”

Hi all, First post here so bear with me. I am trying to create a template in figma buzz but finding the font keeps automatically changing when swapping between template heights (width is the same) I have set the template to instagram square (W1080 x H1080) and set the font size to 290. The font sits inside a full width auto layout of the frame so for any changes in width, the text should wrap. However whenever i change to instagram Portrait (W1080 x H1350) the font automatically changes size to 324.23. I can’t work out why as the width hasn’t changed in any way. Ive attached some screenshots of the before and after and was wondering if anyone has come across this and knows of a workaround Thanks in advance Instagram Square Instagram square font size​​​ Instagram Portrait (same width) Instagram Portrait font size

With the official roll out and credit limits, is the limit per seat or total for the plan?

I'm building a web with a make AI model. I'm a beginner, so I'm using more than 200 versions due to prompt abuse, which seems to be why the web development page is slowing down. Is there a way to delete the version?

não tenho disponível esse novo recurso de draw na minha barra de ferramentas, como faço?

The web under development has become too slow in AI development. I think there are too many codes that have died of uselessness by adding and subtracting many functions. The user page has not slowed down much, but only AI development has slowed down, so is there a good way to improve this?

Does anyone know of a way to do promise-based messaging between the plugin and the UI? (@Gleb 🙂) Using the globals: parent.postMessage(...) → figma.ui.onmessage → figma.ui.postMessage(...) → window.onmessage can lead to spaghetti code… promises would be so much cleaner. Really only the UI → Plugin direction would be fine, e.g.: someCoolMessaging.post(type: 'get-some-data', payload: { id: 5 }).then(data => { console.log('got some data', data) }) .catch((error) => { console.log('error getting data from plugin') })

In Figma Make, how do you delete extra or empty files from the code tree? I can’t delete them or prompt the AI to delete them successfully. I’d like to make sure they do not confuse future prompts.

I've been having a very weird issue in Figma recently. When trying to move objects in a Frame it blocks me for some reason, but it does let me move around a couple of objects on the top. Objects outside of this frame are able to be moved freely. And if I move the order in the layers section then it works (the frame has auto layout on).Does anyone know why this is happening and how to resolve this issue? https://imgur.com/a/PKxFTs2

Hey, is there a possibility to flip the text after I used the type on path tool? Happy for any help!

When I draw a straight line, the coordinate of the line remains on the edge even when i set the stroke position to centre. This make it difficult to align perfectly. See this example where I am making a cross. Alignment is imperfect even when I use the align tools. You can see the bounding box of the line is on the edge rather than the centre. Can I fix this? Object aligns to the selection bounding box rather than centre of line. This is the result of align both lines with the position align options. I’m trying to make a perfect cross, this is the result.

Please suggest me that how can i hire developers in usa?

I accidentally switched my starter plan to education. How can I switch it back? And will my files be affected by that?
