How to get content to stay within the lines? (Lines either expand, or content scales down)

I have a lot of components that have text in them. (Let’s suspend the need for text that “scales” with resizing (which is urgent, Figma team.). ALL THE TIME, text bleeds out of the frame boundaries, regardless of how much I futz with Autolayout, or Constraints. How can I make it so the text frame resizes appropriately and doesn’t bleed?

Set variable in interaction doesn't work when sharing the prototype

Hello! I’ve been prototyping using variables and after a few issues I got everything working. It works perfectly on my computer and on two of my colleagues’ computers as well. BUT… I shared the prototype to a third colleague and for some reasons the variables don’t work for them. Basically if a variable has a value defined before starting the prototype, it’s fine, but if an interaction has a set variable, it doesn’t change the variable. I tried different settings but can’t seem to find a solution. Has anyone experienced this too? Here is a file exemplifying the issue. My colleague sees the following when going through the prototype: Figma – 2 Sep 24 Thank you!

Nested Components don't change color correctly

I have some checkboxes nested inside of a button like this: In my components, the checkboxes appear correctly when switching to the On state: When tested however, they revert to their original color: Is there a way to fix this without having to create more variants on the checkbox?

Style Guide Colors Showing as Hex Codes in CMS File Instead of Design System Colors

Hi Figma Community, I’m encountering an issue where the colors from my design system’s style guide are showing up as hex codes in my CMS file instead of the intended style guide colors. Everything was working fine until recently. Here’s some context: I’ve published a design system and linked it to another CMS file. The issue started suddenly, without any changes I’m aware of. The CMS file is showing hex codes where the design system colors should be applied. There haven’t been any changes to the naming conventions or structure of the design system. I’ve tried refreshing and re-linking the design system to the CMS file, but the problem persists. Has anyone experienced a similar issue or have any insights into what might be causing this? Could this be related to a recent Figma update or syncing issue? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

How can I use Font Awesome on Figma Slides???

I noticed that when using Font Awesome inside Figma slides, they are not supported 😦 Do you have it in your roadmap? I will continue using them inside a Design File and pasting them here… but it’s a longest process. Thx

Use instances of designs across pages without creating a component

(I tried searching for a topic similar to mine, but didn’t find any) So, I wanted to ask if there’s a way to use an instance of a design/frame across multiple pages, without having to create a component of it? (kind of like mirroring a design to separate pages) I’ll try to explain it this way if you can’t visualize it: I have a design on “Masterfiles” page. I try to keep my master designs in this page. I have a mobile layout of this design (using a dynamic variable) in a different page (eg. “Mobile version”). I have another layout (tablet) of the same design (using a dynamic variable), again, in a different page (eg. “Tablet version”). Because currently, Figma doesn’t allow for Devs to change the Dynamic variables, I have to keep separate pages for each variable definition. Now every time I have updates on the Masterfile page, is there a way that I can update designs on the Masterfile without having to update the Mobile and Tablet versions as well? (I know currently, the easiest way t

How to Create Cool Image Hover Effect in Figma?

Does anybody know how to create this cool image hover effect as shown on this festival’s website? When you hover over the linked categories, a different image pops up and the image gently floats and slides a bit across the web page before returning to its original location. I’ve tried creating a variety of different frames with hover interactions, turning the images into components and smart animating - but I can’t quite figure it out. I’ve been able to make the image slide by creating two separate frames and adding image components + after delay variants, but I don’t know how to get the image to reset to its original location each time it hovers over a link. Right now, once the hover interaction is triggered, the image will slide into a new position and stay there for all future occurrences of hover. Any suggestions?

Removed Strokes Still Appearing in Prototype Preview

Hello everyone, I’m experiencing an issue with stokes and would need some advice. Context: I initially added upper strokes to some sections in my design, specifically in the “Certifications” and “Newsletter Subscription” areas (see the first screenshot). Later, I decided to remove these strokes and made the necessary changes in the design editor. Problem: Despite deleting the strokes, they still appear when I preview my prototype (see the second screenshot). I’ve double-checked that the strokes are removed in the design layers, but they seem to persist in the prototype view. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or does anyone have suggestions on how to resolve this? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Switching content based on button pressed

Hi, i have tried searching, but i simply cannot find a similar situation to mine. I have copied some content over from my FigJam to save time, and at the same time i am not handy enough with Figma jet to use components and variables effectivly. As you might see in my project - i want to have the buttons that are beneath eachother in the left side to activiate different carreer paths. What is the best way to do this considering the contents of the project? i have tried many ways, but cannot find a simple solution. opening a overlay or similar does not seem to be the proper way. I guess that making the entire “hierarchy” a component with different variables would be time consuming and advanced? There has to be a better way 😛

How to add your institution to the list of institutions eligible for Figma's free professor/student licenses

If someone can help, I would appreciate it. As I am a professor at the Academy of Applied Studies Polytechnic, where we have a UX UI Design department, I would first like to know how to add my institution (mentioned above) to the list of institutions on the link (Figma for higher education) for getting a free professor/student Figma license. Considering that I am a professor teaching UX design and UI design courses at this Academy, Figma is an essential tool for my work that I must present to my students as a resource they will use in the future. Currently, there are 56 students, and there will be many more in the coming years. Since students (and professors) cannot select the Academy from the list of institutions to obtain a free license, they are unable to use this program in its full functionality. I wrote to the support team at support@figma.com, but they replied to me as follows: “It looks like you’re contacting us from a Starter account. Customers on this plan receive support thr
