 I really liked the new check design tool, but I believe I encountered a problem.When I find a color and try to replace it in side, it doesn't find the colors in my library. My design system is published and normal, it should appear, right?I've already selected it to just base it on my library, but it still doesn't find anything.I also noticed that the colors in the switch menu only appear if I create the color as a variable, but I should use it from the color styles library, right?Would you have to duplicate all colors as variables? it's not so practical if that's the solution. 

I've noticed Slots keeps swapping out components when a library update occurs. I made sure there were no changes to the master components that is embed within the slot composition. As well as no changes made to the master composition where the embedded components sit within the Slot sections of the composition Is this a bug?

app preview in FIGMAMAKEI made an app on figma make, which is compatible with iPhone 16. I published and got a link, but when I tested the app on my phone by connecting it, I found that it couldn't be fully displayed when opened in the link (like a real app). When operating in a browser, the toolbar can only be hidden, but it still cannot be displayed in full screen. Does anyone have any methods to enable the apps made by figma make to be previewed on mobile phones? It can be interacted and used normally, and displayed in full screen!app preview in Safari

Hi! During the opening keynote at Schema 2025 (on October 28), the Figma team announced a new left navbar as part of the updated UI, mentioning it would start rolling out the following week.It’s been a few weeks since then, and I’ve already received an app update, but I still don’t see that new sidebar.Is the rollout still in progress, or is there something I need to do to enable it? Thanks!

My Figma desktop hasn’t worked i am on Windows 10 with pretty decent specs., it works fine on the browser but not on my desktop the background process is showing in the task manager but it won’t draw any power from the CPU. I tried clearing the cache memory, turning off the firewall, and fresh installing it but whenever I open the setup it buffers, and shows the Figma symbol, and that’s it! It won’t ask me for the location to install or if I want a desktop/start menu file. Then if I search for Figma it shows that the app is installed but still won’t open and the Figma agent is open in the background without drawing any power. PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi, Figmates?Just wanted to check in with everyone. Has anyone heard any news or teasers of what’s coming next to Figma Sites or CMS?I feel the need to be excited, as I am working heavily on my website and want to understand what I will be able to do next and how.

Hey i hope anyone has some tips for me.I’ve been working with the windows app since january and experienced cache issues when making changes in the library and publishing to working files.Recently i split the components library up into 2 files, 1 for variables and 1 for components. We are running a multibrand design system and it was starting to get unweildy with just one library file. All ok there.So the structure is:variable library components library pulling in variables consuming working file linking to both libraries All of our components are built using atoms and nesting. But even just placing a button in the consuming file doesnt show eg the updated font colour.Now our freelancer who uses a mac has also started experiencing caching issues in the working files. We regularly delete cache. But changes do not show. Its starting to get a real problem  😭😭😭😭

Hi everyone.I’m currently working on a multi-brand design system  and I’ve separated everything into two files: A Foundations file containing all Variables and Styles A Components file where those Variables and Styles are imported and used The idea behind this setup was scalability. If additional digital products need to connect to the foundations layer in the future, they could independently consume and publish the shared foundations without being tied directly to the component library.However, I’m running into a few practical issues.Because the system is large and multi-brand, I spend a huge amount of time publishing updates in the Foundations file and then importing those updates again into the Components file. When hundreds of variables change at once, this becomes a lot of repetitive back-and-forth work.In addition, I sometimes encounter a bug where a variable appears

I’m running into a weird issue with interactive components in Figma and I’m not sure if this is a bug or just a limitation of how hover states work.I have a menu button component with 3 variants:Default Hovered ExpandedInteractions:Default → Mouse enter → Hovered Hovered → Mouse leave → Default Hovered → On click → Expanded Expanded → On click → DefaultThe Expanded variant contains a dropdown slot with submenu buttons.Problem:When I click the button, the Expanded state appears for a split second and immediately switches back to Hovered. Then, when I move the cursor away, Expanded appears again and gets “stuck”.It feels like the hover interaction is overriding the clicked state, even though I’m not using “While hovering” anymore.Things I already checked:No hidden interactions on variants No Smart Animate (using Instant) Expande

Hi everyone,I recently received a Figma Config 2026 ticket/code, but I’m a bit confused about how and where to redeem it.The code starts in this format:CONFIG 26-XXX- XXXXXXI assume it’s meant for ticket registration or activation, but I can’t seem to find the correct redemption page anywhere on the Config website or inside my Figma account.Could anyone point me to the proper page URL or flow for redeeming these Config codes? If you’ve already done it before, a quick step-by-step would really help.Thanks in advance 🙏

I’m trying to understand the current plugin monetization requirements for Figma Community.I have two questions:The documentation says that paid resources can only be published by “individual creators”.Does this mean that in the final publishing step under Author (Share as), only Individual creator can be selected, and Team  cannot be used for paid plugins?If a plugin has already been published under a Team, can the publishing author later be changed to an Individual creator to enable monetization?The documentation also mentions that creators must be “approved to sell on Community”.How is this approval obtained currently?Is there an application form, waitlist, onboarding process, or is it enabled automatically for eligible creators?

Hello,I noticed an unexpected charge on my credit card on May 14, 2026. My monthly subscription plan is supposed to be for 1 seat ($20/month), but I was charged $57.20 because extra seats were automatically added without my explicit consent.I have already changed my seat approval settings to "Approve seats manually" so this won't happen again. Since these extra seats were added accidentally and were not intended for use, I would like to kindly request a refund for the extra amount charged ($35.20).Thank you for your help, and I look forward to your reply.Best regards,[Sulha Park] [박설하] 

Hi, I’m attending the upcoming Config and currently have an in-person ticket, but unfortunately I won’t be able to pick up my badge myself. Would it be possible for someone else to pick up the badge on my behalf? If so, could you let me know:what information or authorization is required and which email/contact I should notify in advanceThank you so much for your help!

Hi, I’m a student who’s working on a ad for Figma Draw as a school project. I need to find the brush cursor that you can see when taking the brush tool in Figma Draw mode. I tried to search for it : nothing. I tried to take a screenshot and vectorize with the AI, didn’t work so well. I would need the “official” one to continue the animation ! I even tried to look at it in the code but didn’t find it :/ If someone knows how to get it, I would appreciate it!

 Hi- I was working at an organization that was acquired. Instead of acquiring the old Figma, we created a new account. This got very confusing as some files were saved to the old account, etc. We just ran into this issue- does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks! 

My Figma updated from the old Edit Content panel to the new Bulk Edit view. When opening Bulk Edit, every single layer appears, whether it’s editable or not. The non-editable fields can’t be interacted with, while the editable ones can.Right now, I have to horizontally scroll through all fields just to find the editable ones.I know you can manually filter and unselect fields in Bulk Edit, but is there a way to configure this at the master template level so those settings apply to anyone who uses the file in the future?

How to inject HTML video embed in Figma Sites CMS ?

I can’t seem to figure it out. Is this referring to an auto-layout setting? Or something to do with preferred instances?  

The transparency used for uncertain items is not very clear at first glance when zoomed out. Could this be improved, maybe by  use of a different colour for transparent items for greater contrast?

I’ve been exploring UI/UX layouts for construction and home-improvement websites recently in Figma, and one niche that’s really interesting is contractor websites. Many Local General Contractors in Norwalk, CT rely heavily on their websites to showcase projects, build trust, and generate leads from homeowners looking for renovation or remodeling services.When designing a website UI for a local contractor business, a few elements seem essential:• Project Portfolio Sections – High-quality before/after images of renovation or construction work• Service Pages – Clear sections for kitchen remodeling, home additions, roofing, and structural work• Trust Signals – Client testimonials, certifications, and contractor licenses• Local SEO Layout – Location-
