I have already tried quick fixes such as Reset Zoom Level, Restart Figma, and Close Unused Tabs.

I just started using Figma Make yesterday to create a user journey map. It’s awesome how it pads it out with realistic data. I shared the link with a few people yesterday. Some could see the preview, some could not. Today, whilst working on the file, I went to code view, then back to preview, and all I see is a blank page. I’ve refreshed the preview, reloaded the tab, duplicated the file, restarted Figma, restarted my laptop, and cleared my cache. Nothing works. I’ve even started again in a new file, with a new prompt, and still no preview. What else can I try? 

Hello everyone,I'm considering using an ad blocker to enhance my browsing experience, but I'm concerned about potential conflicts with Figma. I've heard that browser extensions, including ad blockers, can sometimes interfere with Figma's functionality, such as preventing images from loading or causing issues in the editor.Has anyone experienced performance improvements or problems when using ad blockers with Figma? Are there specific ad blockers that work well without causing issues?Any tips to ensure Figma runs smoothly while using an ad blocker would be appreciated.

 Designing an Android Magis TV App in Figma requires a different approach than mobile apps because of the larger screen, remote-based navigation, and different interaction patterns. Here’s a structured way to implement it:1. Set Up a TV Screen FrameUse a 1920x1080px (Full HD) or 1280x720px (HD) frame, as most Android TV apps use these resolutions. Maintain a 10% safe margin to avoid important UI elements being cut off due to overscan.2. Understand Android TV UX GuidelinesFollow Google’s Android TV Design Guidelines to ensure compliance. Use focus states for navigation since there is no touchscreen input.3. Navigation & Remote Control AdaptationDesign a D-pad (Directional Pad) friendly UI with clear focus indicators. Ensure buttons and interactive elements are large and spaced properly. Use highlighting (color change, scaling, or shadow effects) to indicate focus.4. Layout & ComponentsHorizontal carousels work best for browsing content. Keep text large and readable (minimum 24sp

Hi everyone,I’ve started working with Figma Slides, and I noticed the default slide size is always in a 16:9 ratio. For my current project, I need the slides to be in A4 format (portrait or landscape) because the presentation will be displayed in A4 size, not in widescreen.Is there a way to change the slide size in Figma Slides to match A4 dimensions directly? Or do I have to design in a regular Figma Design file with A4 frames and then present from there?I’d appreciate any tips or workarounds to keep the workflow inside Figma Slides while using the A4 format.Thanks in advance!

Even though the max value is not set in the H container size of the text in the auto layout state, it is not hug more than a specific size. I can hug up to 3 lines, but I can't hug from 4 lines.The top layers are all hug too so why is this?

Within the past month Ctrl-C stopped working for FigJam. Ctrl-V works fine, and right clicking to copy also works fine. Is there something I need to toggle?

Cline (vibe coding tool) is insisting that Figma MCP cannot provide gradient values, and is telling me the only way for it to grab gradient values is by guessing from a screenshot or having me provide directly. I can’t imagine this is the case-- or is that accurate?

dear, I have been trying to contact support without success in the last weeks.  I am not able to reverify my Education institution. The reason of it is because, in order to reverify, I am redirected to a google form. Nevertheless, our Figma account is not connected with Google and then I am not able to fill the form. What should I do on this situation? We cannot lost the access to Figma now.

Hi!I’ve run into Connection Error 118 when I was trying to rum Figma Desktop App. I still can work from Firefox. But Chrome also doesn’t respond. I’ve tried cleaning cache and rebooting router but none of these worked. Can you give some advice how to fix this? 

Hi everyone,I'm developing an app feature that requires importing a Figma file and its nodes to create a hierarchy navigation tree. The goal is to register user clicks and analyze data from the Figma prototype.My process involves traversing all possible nodes to identify those with navigation actions.I'm running into a significant issue with large Figma files containing hundreds of thousands of nodes. When I try to process these files, I frequently hit the API rate limit and receive a 429 "Too Many Requests" error.I've already tried a few things: I switched from fetching the entire file at once to fetching nodes individually. This helped with smaller files, but the 429 error still occurs with complex designs. I've checked the Figma API documentation and am aware of the rate limits, but the volume of my requests doesn't seem to exceed the typical per-minute limit. This suggests the issue might be related to the sheer size or complexity of the file itself, rather than just the number o

I’ll be leaving my organization soon. Before I leave, I want to make sure that everyone in my Figma org can continue working off of files that I own. I’m not an admin either. I also want to make sure that current viewers of my files who do not hold Figma seats can also retain access to my files. How do I do this? Would it be as simple as moving all my files into a new Project shared by the rest of the team? Thank you.

Currently, the only way to hide components from publishing is to individually right-click each one at a time from within the assets navigator. When this needs to be done for a large number of components, it is extremely tedious.It would be ideal to allow multiple components to be selected at once in the assets navigator such that right clicking the selection allows for the set of components to be hidden from publishing (or shown when publishing, if already hidden).

Hello,This is a bug I stumbled on today and which has apparently been reported multiple times and AFAIK not resolved.I think I found the issue  and solution:Steps oo reproduce the bug :adds an image to figma crop it using the crop mode of the image export the result as a 1x PNG, no changes to export settings load the result in figma and compare it to how it looked in figma before the exportResult: it looks like it went through x0.5 downscale (blurry) then re-upscaled x2 with some sharpening. So it has the same resolution but it looks aweful.Expected result: should look the same as it did before export.Extra tests I did if someone @figma is interested:I checked that the cropping was indeed on the grid. Also tried to force the cropping to be between pixels and that did not change anything. manually resetting the cropping to the exact border of the original image made it export fine again.Solution for other users until the crop feature get fixed if ever:adds your image to your figma Frame

 Olá pessoal!Ao tentar medir qualquer distância com a telca “alt”, estou tendo dificuldade para enchergar (Pois tenho dificuldades na visão e uso óculos), até com óculos eu tenho que forçar um pouco a visão.Gostaria de sugerir essa melhoria pra comunidade.OBS: Sei que a imagem está embaçada (mas é pq tive que pedir um amigo para compartilhar a tela pois segurando o ALT eu não conseguia tirar esse print), mesmo no figma com as letras nítidas eu tenho que forçar a visão por ser muito pequena e laranja. 

Hi, I need help recovering access to my Figma files. My Figma account was linked to my university email (example@university.edu), which has been deactivated after graduation without notice. I can no longer log in, and all my design files (3+ years of work) are stuck there.I have a personal Figma account (example@gmail.com) and would love to transfer the files there if possible. The university confirmed they cannot restore the email.Is there any way Figma support can help me regain access or move the files?Thanks so much in advance!

I have tried to reverify for education plan in Figma. Figma had asked me to submit my Passport or other identifications. After Some attempts, I came to know that they have blocked me for further submission. Need a solution on it.]

!--startfragment>I work for Universidad de Buenos Aires in Argentina and have been using the Figma Education Plan for many years. Recently, I was asked to re-verify my Education status by September 29th.I’ve attempted the verification process multiple times, but SheerID requires me to upload a photo of a government-issued ID. Despite submitting clear photos, they consistently respond that they’re unable to confirm my identity. I’ve contacted SheerID to report the issue, but they simply close the case without resolution.I’ve tried taking photos under different lighting conditions, yet the verification continues to fail. It’s clear that their process isn’t functioning properly in my case.Could you please assist me in completing the new verification process?Thank you,Gastón!--endfragment> 

I want to downgrade my account plan from education to starter. how can I do that ?as i have a personal account which I want to use as a education pro.

Hi, I have this issue in multiple Figma files. If I move frames with comments to another page, the comments still appear on the original page whenever the file is opened. The comments only disappear when navigating to the “moved” page and navigating back.This is really cumbersome because often the page in which frames with comments are moved to is a very large page which takes a long time to load. Also, engineers who are working off of the original page get confused about the comments that were moved and are not relevant to them.

I have Foundation, Alias and Mapped collections in my Variables panel. I have Light and Dark mode for all collections. For dark mode Alias, they can have Foundation dark mode as source. Dark mode Mapped can have dark mode Alias as source. 1 Strange workflowWhat I find.. is that when I want to pick a dark mode Foundation or dark mode Alias colour for my dark mode Mapped set… They are not available. I have to select a layer in my artboard, that is set to using dark mode… → Then I will have the dark mode colours available for selection inside my Variables panel. This is a very convoluted and cumbersome workflow for setting the dark mode colours that I want to use. Question 1 : Is this an intended workflow from Figma? Because it could definitely need some improvement.2 BugWhen I have, as described above selected my colours for my Mapped dark mode set in my Variables panel → The colours displayed are not dark mode colours. They are in fact light mode colours. I can only describe this as a b

How, with a short cut key can I see all the short cuts? In the UI it is specified as Ctrl+Shift+? but that only works on US International keyboards. It would be ok-ish that it doesn't but in that case it should not say so in at least two locations in the UI.
