I have created a QWERTY keyboard component that is made from a separate Button component simulating a Button press. All Buttons effectively inherit the Button component that is embedded in the QWERTY keyboard component. Basically a component made up of components. The Button component has 2 variants, Button up and Button down and the transition I have used between the each variant is mouse down and mouse up.Button Variants - Mouse Down & Up triggersWhen I insert the QWERTY Keyboard asset into a frame and then try and extend the event to transition to a different frame i.e. OnClick say the enter button it doesn’t transition. Trying other transitions like hover over seem to work but that is not the behaviour I want. My question therefore, is there an event inheritance problem between embedded components within a “ma

Hey all, wondering how to solve this issue. We created prototypes to embed in our dev docs site, so there are multiple prototypes on a page and different pages. Every prototype has this cookie banner (highlighted in pink), even when I’ve already accepted it once. How can we remove this? Can it be shown only once? Thank you! Denise

What is the recommended approach to solve the following…?Setup:We have a single Component Library file with all our components and styles and variables.We have a separate file for Design Assets that contains instances of our components which are used in our documentation (Zeroheight).Problem:To get updates to components in our Design Assets file, we need to publish the Component Library, which publishes it everywhere.Question:How can we continuously push component updates to our Design Assets file but not publish our Component Library to everyone?Caveat:We would like to NOT have to copy/paste anything between files and NOT move the Design Assets into the Component Library, which is already getting a bit big.

I was logged into an old school email, and after graduating recently, the institution deleted that email address. I wasn’t able to edit the email for the account and now, I cannot sign back in. I’m really scared as this was 3 years worth of work 😭 and I would hate to lose it. I have created this temporary account to connect with support teams to get some help. Please let me know if there is anything that can be done! 

For a few days now, all users from my company have been experiencing the error that previously created designs are displayed incorrectly. This is shown by the fact that elements are completely shifted and components appear destroyed (spacing is incorrect and elements are overlapped). As soon as I double-click on the element or component, everything straightens out again. But each user has to do this separately. And several times a day. Since then, this has had to be done several times a day and our developers can't even correct this in Dev Mode, for example. This makes it impossible to work at all.

why Figma’s Ai suddenly gone? I tried to restart app couple of times, but it didnt helpI really liked AI features, is there any way to get them back?

The drop-down “things” of our Design System are designed to go over the other items, so not responding to auto-layout or similar. When I open a long drop-down menù in a page, or just a drop-down menù that is near the ending of the page, this goes outside of the frame, disappearing; how can I solve this problem so that I can show the function of it while prototyping?  

We are working on implementing Single Sign-On (SSO) for the Figma application and very soon we will be enforcing SSO. So, we wanted to check if we have any if Elevensports.com, fibamedia.com and Teamwhistle.com domains can be added / as well as if they have any separate contracts with Figma.

I’ve used multiple plugins where after you run it the first time, there comes an option on the right sidebar to rerun the plugin, but this time it runs with the previous settings, without launching the UI. How can I add that functionality in my plugin?

Is there any shorcut to create series of arrows along the curve as given here in the picture? Can we do the same using pen tool?

Hi, I’m working on a protype that tends to be very slow on older phones. Obvious reasons like too big images etc removed.I know shadows are one of the things that slow prototype and in past indeed this often was a big effectiveness increase in my protytypes, when I have removed them. However, the protypes I am working on right now has them not just for “beauty” but also as a functional part of UX, so removing them completely could affect usability results I guess. I wonder, does anybody know if chaning the shadows to frames with transparent gradients or frames with gradients in mulitply mode would be any better for prototype effectiveness? Or is more like this that anything transparent is so much challenge for Figma proto?Thanks a lot if anybody could help : )

I'm trying to prototype a simple Google Maps style interaction, where the map is scrollable in both directions, and the bottom sheet is draggable. Somehow that seems impossible to do?I've tried 2 main methods: Bottom sheet variants with drag interactions fixed at the top of the map, but the map under it is completely scrollable, so it doesn't read the drag at all. For some unexplainable reason, Figma doesn't treat the top layer as top, and allows everything under to scroll. I tried treating the bottom sheet as an overlay, but then everything else becomes unclickable, which also is unintended. Have been through community files and YT videos but either their content doesn't scroll in both directions or they use overlays, both of which don't solve my problem.Has anyone worked around this before? I want the map to scroll and the bottom sheet to be draggable. Thanks in advance! Here’s the file with method 1 (tr

Will there be a way for exporting all variables so that I can hand off to my developers? If this exists already, how to do it? The Figma Studio Plugin allows to download a JSON file with all the token definitions. I wonder if I could have the same for my devs. The feature Dev Mode allows you to see which variables have been implemented while selecting a component. However, developers in my team would like a full list of these variables definitions. Thank you so much for these new updates! Great work. I am fascinated with these new features. Love Love Love!

Hi Figma Team, I’ve been developing a plugin for a year now, and suddenly my console started reporting a message that i’ve never seen before :[Plugin API] Validating property "skipInvisibleInstanceChildren" {rawValue: true}This seems to happen whenever i update a figma object, for example : setPluginData, or setting a node propertyAre you familiar with this message ? why did it appear ?The problem is that i’m now seeing millions of logs like this when running my tests, and it kills the performances + readability to a point where i can’t work anymore.Is there any way to reduce the log level in order to avoid getting spammed by this ?Or any work-around ? Thanks in advance if you have any insights.

I’ve run into a bug where click interactions on button instances don’t work within a parent component if they’re not included in the parent’s initial state.Basically I have a simple drop down with collapsed and expanded states.In the default state it’s just the title bar and in the expanded state it has a list of options and a button.Instances of this component are then stacked into a master component which has different states showing list 1, 2 or 3 etc. expanded whilst the others are collapsed.The click interactions are set for each by changing them to their expanded state, setting the link and then setting them back to the desired collapsed state.These click interactions refuse to work when tried in the prototype.The only way I found around this was to include the buttons within the collapsed state also and then hide them by clipping them out of the frame - not ideal.Is there a fix for this?Thanks :)   

I’m experiencing an issue with prototypes embedded into presentations in Figma. I created presentations to showcase design work to clients where I embedded Figma prototypes into a Figma presentation. Everything was fine. Today my client contacts me to say that they can only see a sliver of the prototype inside of the presentation. When I look at the setup of the presentation I can see that the prototype is correctly embedded and displays at the correct size, but when I play (present) the presentation only a sliver of the prototype is displayed - please see screenshots:  This is quite an issue as currently as it’s happening to all of my presentations. What’s going on here?

Hello, Can I export an interactive image? I create a footer for my email and I want to click on to an item anv open a link. Thanks

Am I the only one or did the shortcut to toggle the UI stop working all of a sudden a few days ago? 🤔 I’m on a german keyboard on windows (so the shortcut should be an has been ^ until recently), I also tried clearing the Figma cache but no budge. (I also saw a forum post abt the same topic on norwegian keyboard so maybe there’s some connection to that?)

 When I select two anchors that share identical X coordinates, they appear “Mixed”. What am I missing? Is this the intended result? I would assume both should say 5.75

I have a frame as an example, and when I try to view it in prototype mode the frame size looks wrong, I’ve tried everything; clean cache, changes the size, frames, etc, but nothing works, someone knows how i can fix it? Thanks.

Hi! Our company recently switched to Figma/FigJam for virtual whiteboarding, the tool works great except that scrolling around by middle mouse button dragging pastes my clipboard content all over the doc. I’m using lastest ubuntu & firefox.

HiI’d really appreciate a response from a Sales team member. I need to purchase Enterprise Licenses and I does seem that public requests on this forum are the most successful method of doing so. The Contact Sales page not appearing to do anything.My Apologies to the wider Figma Community. I know that there are more that 10 topics on this from the last year with some of then having hundreds of responses.This is a good faith outreach and I understand the Sales team are quite possibly very busy at at capacity but there just aren’t many options available. Ed

In Figma Slides when I go to view my version history and try to select an older version I keep getting the message, “Something went wrong. Our team is looking into it now. If refreshing the page doesn’t work, check our status page for updates.” This has been happening to me for, at least, the last 2-3 weeks. Is there something I’m doing wrong or is this a bug?  

Hello all, I have this issue whereas when I update a component (like List Row) in a library, the same component that is used in a file resets it’s inputted data and information. Essentially, changing the component back to it’s original default state. Is this normal behavior? How can I prevent this from happening?It’s troublesome to have 50 screens with data on them to be totally reset after an update.

I’m having some issues when I make an update to a component in a published library, the update is not reflected in the deign file that is using the library.I’ve closed the tab and restarted Figma with no resolution.
