I can’t believe this basic text formatting issue is still unaddressed in Figma in 2025, but I need to indent a full paragraph — every line if it, not just the first line, and not with a quote. Has anyone found a workaround? I know I can give this paragraph its own text box, but that just stinks. Other ideas? Plug-ins anyone has found that work? Thanks! And Figma — for the love of all that is holy, please fix this.

  As an active Figma user, I would appreciate it if you could enable the AI ​​feature for me."Also, AI features are not available in the team settings and I can't enable or disable them"  Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I exported my design files from previous team, and I want to upload the file to my personal workspace, the file loads for a while, during the loading I see the file created in my workspace and I get this error message. After closing the popup, when I open the file, there are no assets, only empty artboards.I that file I used few videos, but mostly there where designs/assets that were created in figma. Is anyone familiar with this issue? How it can be fixed? HELP 😭

Hello,When prototyping, the top of my frame is hidden behind the phones camera (see picture). Is there a way to avoid this from happening or do I have make my top bars lower? Would be so appriciated if someone could help me.Wishing you a great day!Kind regards,Jacob

I support faculty staff and students at our university, so I would like to apply for the education plan as an administrator.  I do not teach, so I do not have a syllabus.  The form is not allowing me to submit the form unless I attach a syllabus.  The form gives you the option to apply as an administrator, but administrators do not a syllabus.  How should I apply?   Thanks, Aaron

Hi everyone, I created this arrow icon for a dropdown field and noticed I couldn’t flip it (to indicate the dropdown is being expanded). So then I just took the down-arrow, flipped it (I tried transforming by 180 degrees, and also clicking the “flip vertical” button), and created a new component. The up-arrow shows in my icon library, but it keeps displaying as a down-arrow in my instances. Would anyone here know what the issue is and how I could fix it? Thank you! 

I educate classes in Figma and before the summer they could apply for an education plan using their private e-mails. Since they’ll be graduating it’s better if they keep everything on the account that they’ll be using later on - after school. But now it asks for a school mail, is there any way around this now?

If I use modes to swap the states between 3 radio buttons and switch the state of another component it works fine. However, If I open the same frame as a modal, and try to swap between the modes, it glitches. When you choose another option in the modal, parts of the UI disappear, and you have to click twice to get it to work.Steps to replicateCreate a radio component with selected and deselected variants Drag those 3 options into the frame and make options a, b, and c Make a text area component with 3 variants, a, b, and c. Create string variables for each option-a, option-b, and options-c and bind the variables to the radios Make a text variable for the text area and bind it to the instance. Make three modes, a, b, and c and have the respective A, B, and C selected in each mode Make the text area swap between each A, B, and C mode.When I look at it in a simple frame it works fine.W

In the last few days I have seen in my archives that the order of the collection of varaibles defined by numbers has changed and now the new collections are simply being organised in the dropdown by creationist. Is there any way to rearrange them, or at least know the logic of why this has changed? 

Does anyone know why Segoe UI Regular sizes might be greyed out and not working on a Mac? Issue: I’ve never had this problem in the past, but as of two days ago the font Segoe UI regular and semi-bold are not working in my files. The other weights seem to work fine and I have the option to change their sizes etc. Other things worth noting: (A) this happens in both the desktop and web versions of my files (B) It happens on existing and new files © I can use the font in other applications such as Word/Powerpoint etc (D) Co-workers don’t have this problem when they edit my files. What I’ve tried so far: (1) I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the Segoe font family. I’ve downloaded from two different MSFT domains to make sure it wasn’t the downloaded files that were the problem (2) I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled Figma desktop. (3) I’ve rebooted Figma, my machine etc (2) I’ve ran the Mac OS font va

Уже не в первый раз пропадают скачанные шрифты. Скачиваю по всем правилам, все нормально. Через день шрифтов нет, но на компьютере они есть. 

My Figma Black is not Black (it’s black in other applications) – any suggestions gratefully received.

I had personal setbacks that caused my graduation to be delayed. My education plan has expired -- I transfered the projects I was working on onto a starter team but I am not sure if I am going to be able to continue to work on them after my education plan expires 

Since one of the most recent updates, text layers no longer update without restarting the entire prototype from scratch. For instance, I have a button that says “Save” and change the text to “Update”. Then I look at the prototype and the button text says “U” and not the entire text I added. Refreshing does nothing. I have to close and relaunch it to see the text change. This is across all component instances and is specific to text.I’m convinced Figma doesn’t do QA work sometimes. Every prototype has this problem now. I don’t want to “reset” Figma app for the 100th time either.

I prefer to use a limited design where I can see fonts, colors, size and so on. It seems that I have changed my settings and now “Prottype” TAB is installed…. I woud like to go back to previous settings - to “Properties type”. 

In my design system, I wanna provide a couple of components that act as containers, e.g., Popover. So, the Figma-user / design system consumer can put inside whatever it needs (img, text…). I don’t want to be too specific & restrictive here. Currently, the components in Figma act more as closed constructs: All the options we want to provide have to be designed in advance as variants, variables, etc. This is cool for consistency, but it is super rigid for a custom content that can’t be foreseen. The only way I could provide some flexibility is by suggesting the Figma designer to detach the component instance and then put the custom content inside. Any thoughts, workarounds, plugins, coming Figma features?

 Hey our team is having the issue when viewing our designs that the scroll position keeps jumping and resetting. This happens on almost every screen and the behaviour is inconsistent, meaning sometimes nothing happens and everything works well and sometimes its completely unusable. This is issue is causing a lot of frustration and problems for our team and design development process. We can’t reliably use Figma prototyping features for user testing since the users are met with buggy scroll behaviour no matter what device they are using. Making design testing and viewing frustrating and almost impossible is in my opinion completely unacceptable from what is supposed to be the industry standard design tool.So far we have tried:Detaching instances Viewing in Figma (both the modal view and full page view), in browser and on phone browser

Hi everyone,I would like to update my portfolio and that's where Figma Slides comes into play. My thoughts are to rebuild my new portfolio in the tool. Previously I have always used Indesign, but I find it too static. Slides offers me a larger playing field and I think the animation function is great. Now my question is, if I create a presentation in Slides with small animations, will these also be included in the export as a PDF and if not, will the default state be displayed in the PDF or how does it behave?In Indesign I can export an interactive PDF. There I can then integrate smaller animations such as hover on the button etc.. How is it with Figma Slides, because when I export I cannot choose between PDF and interactive PDF.Looking forward to your feedback.

hello, it would be very much appreciated if it was possible to apply numeric variables to the x & y position of absolute positioned elements within components. Here is the case i am working on: While everything is completely tokenized and adjusts to different screen densities, i cannot apply the positioning tokens to the design defining the absolute positioning of the dropdown -list flyout. As you can see the dis

I’m trying to copy/reuse some components that have Dev Mode annotations, but I want to reuse them to create another type of component, so the current annotations don’t really match the new component and I would just like to remove all annotations all together, but couldn’t find how to do it yet. Is it even possible? If so, how can I do that? 🥸

Oh boy this could have caused a lot of headaches if I didn’t catch this… I do not have “Simple Design System” from Figma added to this file as a library, as indicated by the not-selected “Add to file” button: (the only reason I see it in the library list at all is cause I took the screenshot after dragging in the wrong component) I did a search for the “textarea” component that we have in our own custom design system that IS added as a library, and this is what I saw:

Hello,For over a month now, the search function in Figma has not been working correctly for layers—whether text, graphic, or any other type. Instead of displaying specific elements, the search results only show design thumbnails, making the search feature practically useless.This issue severely impacts workflow, especially in large projects. Without the ability to quickly locate layers and text, navigation and editing become chaotic and significantly more time-consuming.We believe this is a widespread issue affecting many users, not just our team. We would appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and any updates on a solution.Thank you! Looking forward to your response. 

I had this problem and saw another post in which people didn’t had their answer;I tried everything i could, in my modest experience with Figma, but i kept getting the exports with a thin white line, sometimes top, bottom or sides. I tried to increase the canvas with couple px, exporting multiple sizes (x1, x1.5., x2, etc) - had same results, nothing worked.In the end, i managed to find the bug and the fix. My solution is pretty simple:Create a new frame with the desired size (exactly what you need, not +/- px). Then, you can copy-paste the graphics from the frame that has the export error to the newly created frame, just don’t copy-paste the whole frame. I noticed if you copy-paste / duplicate the frames is when the exported error happens, be it with one line top, bottom, two lines on the sides, etc. Double check in the preview area, and export.I started having this problem when i was duplicating frames in order to change few items, s

I’ve already fixed typo of a color style variable name from Bg-Reverse-A00 to Bg-Reverse-A100 But still got old JSON data:```bash curl -H "X-Figma-Token: <my-token>" "https://api.figma.com/v1/files/<my-file-id>/styles"``` I tried to suffix the URL with “?timestamp=random_number” but still got the same old data. 

I enrolled for the education plan and its says i have all the perks under the professional plan but i can’t access the dev mode, and its prompting me to upgrade my plan any idea why is it though
