After downloading my file everything takes awhile to download and its blurry. It is a PDF to send to potential employers so blurry and delayed photos cannot happen. Please help 

Hello, dear experts, can you tell me how to preserve zoom when switching between frames or sections?Currently, when I switch, Figma reduces the zoom, which is very inconvenient when I zoom in on the workspace every time. Is there a way to fix this?

Hi, I’m a beginner, but I’ve recently noticed a problem. I made a presentation in Figma Design and tried to copy the slides into Figma Slides. However, after many attempts and restarts, it just keeps showing “Copying slides over…” and never finishes. I have alredy tried to make simple “presentation” slides from templates and just use blank frames without anything…still does not work. And I have alredy tried to switch between app and two browsers. I am using Mac M1 Pro 

When are content seats going to be available? Really want to use Figma Buzz but it’s not worth it yet as it’s not worth it for our team without the seats.

Hi,Im a student and new to Figma. Im having trouble adding community kits to a projectWhenever I open one I don’t get a prompt to add this library.I can only publish this by moving it to a project but then it prompts me that I add a seat? What am i doing wrong and how do I add these/save these so I can easily import them in other projects

as title, I’m trying to use my published library in a Figma Make project, but the export for Figma Make dialog does not pop up. Also when I click Import From Figma in Make, it does nothing. Tried closing the app and reopen but still the same. I’m on a pro education plan. Is this feature available for me? thank you

Hello We're working on a third-party app that uses Figma's REST API. Our app needs to support both Enterprise and non-Enterprise users. For Enterprise users, we want to enable variable imports (which requires the file_variables:read scope). However, when we include this scope in our OAuth request (along with file_content:read and current_user:read), non-Enterprise users face an error on Figma's OAuth authorization page (https://www.figma.com/oauth?client_id...){ "error": true, "status": 400, "message": "scope file_variables:read is only allowed for Enterprise users", "i18n": null}Since this error occurs on Figma's page before the callback to our app, we can't handle it on our end. This blocks non-Enterprise users from signing in at all. We've looked at the /v1/me endpoint but don't see plan info there. Is there a way to detect if a user is Enterprise, or what's the recommended way to support both Enterprise and non-Enterprise users in the same app? Thanks!

Hello, i’ve created a simple button, with text, padding and autolayout. I’ve turned it into a component. I now want to make the stroke a property for all the variants, that i can turn on and off with a boolean.However, there is no diamond icon next to the stroke in the right hand panel, so i cannot figure out how to tie it to a prooperty. Is it because the stroke is not a nested item? .

How do you set up your Figma designs so that elements (buttons, text boxes, images, etc.) move, resize, or stay in the right place automatically when the frame or screen changes size?

We have a Design System with parent components composed of nested instances. Both parent components and nested instances are in the file “A”. To avoid having thousands of components available within the Assets when publishing the library, the nested instances are hidden with “.” at the beginning of their names. The problem: When using the component library from file “A” in file “B”, everything works fine. The issue arises when a nested instance from file “A” requires an update. Firstly, it does not allow me to publish the nested instance update without removing the “.” from its name, and I also cannot publish the parent component containing the updated nested instance. If somehow I manage to publish the parent component, file B will prompt me to update it, but the updated nested instance does not receive the changes made. Is this a bug? Or what is the correct way to work, update, and publish nested instances so that they always receive their updates without cluttering the Assets librar

I have a button as shown below, it contains an icon on the left hand side configured as a nested component. The size of the icon in the button component below is 20x20px. The size of the icon itself (as an individual component) is 24x24px. My icons are made up of a bunch of strokes, and all icons as their individual component have their stroke width at 1.5px, in the button component it is 1.25px (as scaling from 24x24px to 20x20px scales 1.5 to 1.25). When I change the nested component instance to another icon, the new icon should remain at 1.25px, however the new icon is at 1.5px. I’ve tried changing all of my icon’s constraints to scale but that didn’t seem to do anything. TLDR: I want my nested components to resize but also scale accordingly as I change the nested component instance. Right now it’s only resizing them. Been stuck on this for quite some time, and I’m not sure if this is a bug or if I’m doing anything wrong. Would love some help.

Figma no longer support to those people who are not paying the membership. soon they files were stolen by figma beware of it

Hi, I noticed that the AI button is gone when I open Figma today, and I can’t find the “Add relevant content” feature when hovering over a Frame. Has this feature been removed or relocated?

I previously had a Figma account registered with my old company email address . Unfortunately, I no longer have access to that email since I’ve left the company.After the recent Figma update, the login process now requires an access code sent to the registered email. Because I can’t receive that code, I’m completely locked out of my Figma account.As a result, I’ve lost access to all my design files and projects, which are critical for my ongoing work. I urgently need access to these files or a way to transfer them to my new email address.Your help would be greatly appreciated — this is very important for my work.

Hey everyone 👋I’ve been freelancing as a designer and kept running into the same headache —keeping track of client feedback and revisions outside Figma.Clients comment on emails, send screenshots in Slack, or text feedback on WhatsApp 😅So I built a small CRM for designers that connects with Figma links,and lets clients view, comment, and approve each version in one place — kind of like a client-facing review page.It’s still new, and I’d love to hear: How do you manage revisions or approvals with your clients? Do you use Figma comments, Notion, or something else? Would a shared “review page” make your workflow easier? Here’s a quick preview of what it looks like 👇 If anyone’s curious, I’ve linked it here : Aprovly.appWould love any feedback or ideas from fellow Figma users 🙏

I'm thinking about building my portfolio using Figma Sites, but before I start, I wanted to ask: does Figma allow you to password-protect specific pages or projects? I’d like to make some sections private or only accessible to certain people.

I’m currently working on this picker area. I created one component set so I can switch between exercises 01–08.However, I’m not sure how to make the timer work together with it. I know that you can’t create an actual countdown timer inside Figma, but what I need is to show the timer state for each exercise.For example:01 — Calves — 04:00 Remaining02 — Hamstrings — 03:30 RemainingEach exercise has a duration of 30 seconds.How can I make this work so that when I click on “02 — Hamstrings,” the displayed countdown also changes to “03:30,” just to demonstrate to the developer how it’s supposed to function?​​​​​​

Hey everyone,I’ve been learning mobile app design in Figma lately, and AI tools often suggest that I should always follow responsive design rules. However, I’ve noticed that many templates, social media posts, and even YouTube tutorials don’t seem to focus much on responsiveness.So I’m wondering — in the mobile app design field, is responsiveness actually an important rule to follow, or is it something designers usually skip in practice?Would love to hear your thoughts! 🙌
