It’s been few weeks since AI feature started rolling out but I still don’t see it. Is there anything I should do to activate it?

as Figma is becoming our single source for design - we are now using it for doing Power point presentations from Figma - the problem is it’s still impossible to export directly to slides without a a pluggin like pitch deck - i think it’s time to have your team have a simple export button to google slides - and also an imports slides option - this would give us the ability to work with our clients that requirer a standard PPT/ Slides presentation huge demand.

Dear Figma Support Team,I'm experiencing slow performance with the Figma Desktop App on my MacBook Pro (2019, Intel UHD Graphics 630 & AMD Radeon Pro 5300M, MacOS 13.7.1). File loading often takes up to 5 minutes, causing system-wide lag. I've tried the official troubleshooting methods, including clearing the cache, but the issue persists.I have disabled the "Automatic graphics switching" option in the system settings to ensure the dedicated GPU is used. But I noticed the integrated GPU is at near 100% usage during loading, while the discrete GPU remains inactive.Thank you for your assistance.Best regards

[URGENT] Hi, since this morning I can’t access my file on the Figma app when I’m the owner but when I’m on the web browser I do have access (so not a licence problem). Please help as I need to work on the file asap. Thanks! 

I finally figured out it wasn’t possible, but why shouldn’t I be able to?Steps to reproduce:Create a frame Create another frame inside Try converting the inner frame into a section (right-click)Observe the “Convert to section” option is not available. To make it a section, you’ll have to know to convert the outer frame to a section. It seems like the only situation where covering a frame to a section is not possible. I don’t have a clear use case for it, but I’d expect to have the ability to. It’s not urgent.

I need help for access to a previous account that I had before. I need access to the previous designs that I made with a previous account. On this previous account I used the "Login with Google" auth and now I don't have access to this google account because this was removed.How I can recover my designs?

Hello, I'm a beginner in Figma, and I have a couple of questions that might seem simple, but I need some help:How can I display the top toolbar? I can't find the "Create Multiple Components" option in other toolbars or windows. I can’t switch between components by their names.I've attached two pictures: the first is my Figma workspace, and the second is from the lecture I'm studying. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!  

Hi folks,I have two Figma accounts: a professional one (A) and a personal one (B).Currently, when I open Figma in my browser, my personal account (B) loads by default.Is there a way to set my professional account (A) as the default when opening Figma?

Hi 👋 Using variables for setting fonts are cool and helps our design system a lot. But is there any way to set bound variables for text properties via Plugin API? It’s complex read-only property and simple setBoundVariable() does not work. We don’t have known methods like setBoundVariableForFont(). Can we wait for Plugin API to support typography variables any time soon? List of properties I can’t manage to set: fontFamily, letterSpacing, fontSize, paragraphSpacing, paragraphIndent, fontWeight, lineHeight and unexpectedly stroke for sections 😀

I am trying to change the email on my account, and I cannot do so. I do not receive instructions about how to update the email to my new email. I have also tried to make a new account, but I don’t receive verification emails. I have tried multiple ways, multiple times, to get emails, and I have nothing. I need help ASAP before I lose access to my original email account.

I have a list of currency names in a text block, and I want to make just one of them, like “EUR,” act as a clickable link in a prototype. However, the entire text block is currently linked as one. Is there a way to link only the individual currency name without having to place each currency in a separate text frame?

Hi Community! When exporting PDF files the color changes to grey when importing it to Pandadoc. Do you know why this happens? It starting doing this since a couple of weeks now. When I import an older PDF export from Figma in Pandadoc i don’t have this issue. See screenshot:

I am having an issue where if you have a table layout with each cell containing a component with a “hover” state showing a pop up, the top most layer works just fine but anything below it, shows the layer set to “first” or up front within the layers panel. I need the hover to work for all if possible. If not, I will have to only showcase one field working in this manner for the prototype.Any help would be greatly appreciated! Top most layer hover card:Second hover card where the top most layer appears up front.Thanks!

HI there ! When i want to add variant to a component or want to create a component set, padding of the box is 200 px 😐 i try to set as default setting in edit menu but it doesn’t work for component set size and every time i add a variant to component set everything changes like pic blow. any solution?

when we are designing an screen should we consider the task bar and the browser ui bar? Or we only design the view port?

When using a 375px-wide canvas with a layout grid, I encountered a misalignment issue due to Figma’s grid system not supporting decimal values. This creates visual inconsistencies, especially with odd-width canvases and fixed gutter sizes.Steps to Reproduce:Set up a 375px-wide canvas (e.g., iPhone screen). Add a layout grid with 16px margins and a 14px gutter. Create a 2-column design aligned to the grid. Measure each column using the rectangle tool.Expected Behavior:Both columns should be equal in width.Actual Behavior:One column is larger than the other due to the inability to use decimals for grid calculations. Odd-width canvases can’t evenly split without decimals, leading to visual mi

Hi everyone,I'm exploring how Figma can be used to enhance Krav Maga Maleh training, both in-person and online.In-Person: How can Figma be used to create visually engaging training aids (e.g., instructional posters, visual aids for demonstrations) and streamline class planning/organization? Online: How can Figma be used to develop interactive online modules with video demonstrations, quizzes, and progress tracking?I'm interested in your thoughts on:The potential and limitations of Figma for both in-person and online Krav Maga Maleh training. Best practices for designing effective online training materials using Figma. How Figma can bridge the gap between in-person and online training experiences.Let's discuss how Figma can shape the future of Krav Maga Maleh instruction!

Hi community, this is my first topic. I often use Auto Layout with components. These components have variants that change dimension upon an interaction, such as clicking on an element in order to expand it into a larger element. Generally this just works. However, when I nest components with Auto Layout within a parent component, the Auto Layout spacing no longer responds to changed dimensions that result from the child component interactions, and the child components in the Auto Layout overlap with one another. Is this a limitation of Figma, or is there a way to make this work? Thank you for your time!

Conflict resolution workflow never seems to work for me. Either no specifics are displayed at all, and all I can do is press the “resolve” button, or it lists dozens and dozens of conflicts, each taking a whole minute to load the preview, and in the end all the previews turn out to be identical.A textual representation (diff) of conflicts would probably be more useful.Not mentioning the complete failure of displaying black text on black background and not being able to switch the preview bg right in the window (I don’t want to change my whole display mode from dark to light just to see the previews in figma conflicts/merge window).

So … I have merged a branch and noticed something went wrong (probably kept a change I should not have). Consequently I reverted said branch (aka restored an earlier version in the history of my master file).How do I restore my "merged" branch to try and merge it again? Online it said, that this is impossible. Are all the changes completely lost now? In my case those are luckily small and I can redo them rather quickly, however I do find it a bit worrying …Should I ever have some big changes in a branch it would mean completely redoing them if I am not mistaken? This does not really build trust in the system if I am being very honest 😅 

Conditional prototyping used to allow us to IF statement - allow to set multiple variables ( var1=”A” && var2=”A”) THEN (set variable) - change variable (var1=”B” && var2=”B”) ☝️ This doesn’t seem to be supported in the new UI. You can only explicitly declare 1 variable What happened to 2.1, is this no longer supported? Or is there a new work around with the new UI?  Ideally, I want to be able to change multiple variable’s value from a click condition. This used to be possible in the previous UI because we can write the script. What am I missing? 🙆‍♂️ 

Hey Guys, I’m quite new to figma (about a week in)As you can see in the video, I’m presenting the hovering smart animation for my google button, how can i make it so that when it animates to the bigger version of itself, it animates in a centered manner if that makes sense. I’ve tried looking everywhere on figma if theres like a setting but ive probably missed it. Is there any way i can animate the button in the centre. Thanksgoogle drive video

Hello, for me it’s seems like a bug, but maybe I’m doing something wrong?I’m choosing few elements so I can move them together inside the grid,however, sometimes like in this case, these elements gets duplicated,however all I did was move them around, I did not copied them. Thanks!
