Hello! I am evaluating the use of Figma or other design tools for our startup, I cannot access AI Tools in Figma, how do I get access to them for the purpose of evaluation?I have seen the responses that you are rolling out the features & just wait, but We need to choose a design tool rather soon & many are asking for AI Features, Should we just choose another alternative to Figma which has AI for now? 

I’ve noticed that SVG export sizes have gone from around 20KB up to 800KB. Whatever changes have been put through in the last month is effecting it’s usability for the web exports. Our site has a banner limit of 100KB and SVG has been an invaluable resource in meeting these restrictions. However, within the last month when I exported suddenly I am seeing consistently large file sizes of close to 1MB (800KB) for an image comprised of a single background colour and text. This needs urgent attention as it basically makes Figma useless for any vector artwork.

I can’t seem to get access to UI3. I tried quitting and restarting. Checked for updates (it was updated). Yet, when I go to the helper, it says I’m on the latest version, with no option to update. Please help. Thank you! 

Hi,I am trying to swap an object in my component instance (pizza icon) with another object (noodle icon). I tried using Shift + I (Swap Instance) but for some reason it doesn’t work. Could anyone know how to work around this? I couldn’t drag the noodle icon into the component?I tried putting it in front of the component but it stayed behind? 

I found the following thread: Prototyping "Navigation + Scroll" | Figma Forum but it’s pretty old so perhaps it was posted before the interaction layering came out.That said I just tried layering a “Scroll To” interaction after a Navigate interaction, and it’s not working.Note the Y-Offset, which is how I’m targeting where to scroll to. I tried it with and without the two State management checkboxes checked, to no avail. Has anyone gotten this to work? The desired behavior would be to mimic navigating to an html anchor in a web page (you don’t just load the page but scroll to where the anchor is). This is a pretty basic web interaction so I’m thinking this should be possible in Figma, especially with the interaction layering functionality. 

I’m using Figma on the web with an 11in iPad Pro M4. When I click the text styles button with a text box selected it appears to be impossible to actually apply one of the styles. It selects the menu item but it doesn’t actually apply it. I’ve tried this both with my finger and Apple Pencil.  

Hi all, Newish to Figma and trying to find the best way to create a component or variables for what’s essentially a multi pick-list for users. Use Case, “I want to reserve an office space from 4:00pm - 6:00pm” and a second office from 11am-12pm” For Figma prototype, when I click on one of these boxes I want it to stay in the turquoise state. Would I just make all of these buttons? Here is the design: Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you!

My images are scaling smaller when dragged into figma - WHY? Top image is a screen grab of the website Middle image is the file dragged into Figma (viewing at 100%) Bottom Image is the Website Look at the font sizes in these jpgs - Its impossible to map 1to1 when this is happening - HELP!

Hello. I am somewhat new to Figma but would love to incorporate this animation into my prototype.I need an object (a block of text) to become smaller only when the user pushes and holds another button on the interface.So to begin, the screen is static with some text and a button, then the user presses the button and the object (text) begins to shrink. Then, when the user releases the button another screen is triggered. Is this possible? If so, I haven’t been able to figure it out. I apologize if this is easy and a waste of everyone’s time. It’s not like the usual animations people create so I’ve had a hard time figuring it out.

A very annoying problem, pretty sure it is either a bug, or something really dumb.When I click on a figma file (browsing from my computer), the file loads, everything seems to be fine (the layer panel is full, but nothing is displayed no matter what I do. I can even create a shape, it’ll be added in the layer panel but not displayed, even in visible mode.I cleared all my computer cache, still nothing.When I access the file from my phone (browser), with the same network, everything works fine and the design is displayed. I checked the log, I have errors that I don’t know how to solve.I don’t really know what I’m doing wrong… Any idea how to fix this? 

Hi,For the past two weeks, I’ve been experiencing high CPU usage while using Figma, leading to lag, freezes, and even Mac reboots (MacBook Air M1, 2020, 16GB, Ventura 13.1). The issue worsens when running prototypes.I’ve tried the following troubleshooting steps, but none have resolved the issue:Using Figma in a browser instead of the desktop app; Disconnecting my external monitor; Clearing the cache.Could you please investigate and provide any insights or solutions?Thanks!

I need to recreate this effect to show it to a client, the effect goes like this: I click the "Confirm" button; The current content of the page summaries in a card; It stays on the screen for a little bit meanwhile the new content is shown; The old content goes up and the new content take place in the page (note: scrolling up reveal all the old content of the flow) Is there a way to do it?I uploaded the video here 

My developer noticed that a set of color variables outputs a different hex code than is defined in the variables.The variables are defined as follows:Cream/100: #F8EEE2 Text/impact-inverse: cream/100 dev mode outputs Text/impact-inverse as #F9F0E6When I detach cream/100 from type/impact-inverse it displays the proper hex code (#F8EEE2). I don’t even have a guess as to what the issue might be. Attached are the screenshots he sent me to describe the issue. 

Hi all, i have been working on components in a styleguide and have no to restore a specific component. As i understand, if i select a status in the version history where the component was good, the whole styleguide would then be reset and all changes since then would disappear. Is it possible to reset only this on specific component or does anyone know a workaround?

In Figma, I am trying to export HTML but it doesnt seem to show the GDS components I have used in the page. Am I missing something or does Figma not recognise GDS components when exporting code?

Hi, everyone.I recently started my studies and during one of the classes I noticed a variables icon very close to the letter spacing field. However, when I looked at my screen, I didn't see the same icon. What is this icon for? Is it some feature that no longer exists?  I would appreciate it if anyone could help me.

Hi everyone, I am trying to migrate from InDesign to Figma but I still need InDesign files. After creating the Figma documents I will need to somehow export them and work with them also in InDesign. It seems there is no way to export a document directly from Figma to InDesign. Does anybody know how to do that (maybe a plugin) or if it is even possible? Thanks

スタータープランをつかっているものです。 Figma AIを試してみたいと思っているのですが、AIのメニューが、ツールバー上に表示されません。 UIはすでに新バージョン（UI3)に変わっています。また、ファイルブラウザ上で、プロジェクトの設定でもAIの機能はオンにしてあります。 このような状態の中で、どうすればAI機能をオンにできるか、どなたかおわかりになるでしょうか？ 宜しくお願いします。 

Hey there, I’m looking into a component in DevMode and I noticed that when opening the playground, if I change the variable mode, the fonts aren’t changing, like the colors for example.In design mode, by changing the variable it all works just fine.Is this a known issue, are there any solutions…? Thank you!

I have a frame full of component tabs set in an auto layout. The tabs are stroked and the gap between is set at -1 to avoid double line thickness between them. The default tabs have a grey stroke whereas the active tab has a blue stroke. Canvas stacking is set to ‘last on top’ which works great when the first tab is active. When the second tab is active, it’s left blue stroke is hidden by the first tab’s grey right stroke. I get the same result (but mirrored) by swapping canvas stacking over to ‘first on top’. If I bring the second tab to the front, due to the auto layout, it moves physical position to the first in the main frame. How do I keep it’s position in the auto layout but also move it to the front?

Hi! I’ve seen some issues with KR and the text seems broken. I also saw that the support team has advised to use “Regenerate all instances (slow)” from [menu > quick actions]. However, I’ve seen that the editor can only access this and the viewer cannot. Is there any way the viewer can also use this option as well? Or is there a way other than to use “regenerate all instances” and fix the broken text problem?  Many thanks!

Is there anyone who can some web designs for onboarding screens been trying to get some inspirations from the community  they dont hve what i hve in mind 

Last year, we had two Full Figma seats. However, later on last year, a user with Full Figma seat was removed from the team. It looks like we missed the announcement of the new billing model, so this year we have to pay for two Full Figma seats with one "Available" seat. This is very unexpected.Besides, after looking around in the Admin page, we can't seem to find anywhere we could adjust the number of Paid seats. Everywhere there's a "Manage" button, we're led back to the People page, where it's only information.We may need to contact Support for further assistant, but may I ask what the problem it is? Is it because we missed a note where we could select to keep the “Available" seat or not, or is there any misunderstanding?
