hey guys! I’d like some help solving a question about tokens in Figma and handoff to devs. On design view, we have the token applied with the semantics we created in the global tokens. But, on dev mode, these semantics don’t appear, only the token values appear, for example: “12px”, for the font size which we call “small” and “400” for the weight which is the default, “regular”. Do you know if there’s a plugin or some way to make dev mode show the tokens just like their semantics?

Please i need help on how to design mid fidelity wireframe. i am a beginner. you can help me with video or instructional materials  

Hi, I’m trying to mask a frame with a vector shape (the shape of an iphone). I put the shape on top of my frame, then select both layers and click on mask icon on top nav. The result is the shape, becomes a fill on top of my frame, where I want the shape to be subtracted from my frame! I’m very frustrated and don’t know what to do. Please help.

When pasting text from design into a string variable, it seems that a color variable is being added unexpectedly. I don’t know what’s causing this.

Фигма стала потреблять много энергии. Даже открывая пустой файл, появляется уведомление о высоком потреблении энергии. Из-за чего быстро разряжается аккумулятор.К примеру, при работе в ФШ такого нет и аккумулятор сажается медленнее. За 8 часов работы в ФШ сажает 50-60%, а фигма разряжает полностью за 4-5 часов.Ноут — MacBook Pro M1 Pro  

Our SAML Azure certificate is about to expire. When I generate a new certificate, I am unable to update it in Figma through the settings. As a result, when I activate the new certificate and attempt to log in using SSO, I encounter an error indicating a mismatch between the certificate in the IdP and Figma.

So I have a huge library ok. And we have different software releases, some of them at the same time. Each release is also a library for the new releases. And today I realized that the rendering does not work properly. Sometimes the screens does not appear at all and show up only blank, in other cases parts of the screens like text in tables and stuff or complete elements are missing. So if you open up the instance on the left layer area than everything looks fine again (for that one screen). Like in this case here (Stuff is pixelated for safety reasons. The customer would see me in Jail if I post it here unpixelated). I open up the page with the screens I want to take a look at and the left screen is broken:  If I doubleclick on the left screen the layout comes back like:

Hi!First I have to say that I’m so happy for the accessibility work done with FigJam. This is an important tool on my workplace, and it’s good for me that many important tasks can be done using Jaws.Setting stamps are possible. But is it possible to remove a stamp, e. g. after a discussion (or if you recognize that you’ve done something wrong)?/ Morten

I’ve been running into the same issue as this below: Local fonts completely neglected, all of sudden Ask the community I recently upgraded my figma desktop. It suddenly showed “missing fonts” window to every component i used any local font. I reboot, reinstalled all the figma desktop and local font files. This is happening in the Windows dekstop and my Macbook at the same time. I also changed the type of the f

Occasionally I’ll see this cloud icon at top right, warning me that my file isn’t saving. What’s interesting is that I always have several files open, and while sometimes more than one file will show this icon it’s never every file. It’s not the whole app, it’s just file to file. Some files are saving, some aren’t, and I can’t figure out what to do about it. Obviously it’s disconcerting to work on something that I know isn’t saving - what can I do about it? -I’m marking this as solved because people need to see Mike’s post, but “solved” is very much in quotes because the fix is a hack - it’s a workaround for a problem Figma hasn’t fixed yet.

I know that it isn’t really possible to navigate to a nested frame(s) but I really need a solution for this.What I want to do: Home page with a selection of projects  When a project is clicked, it navigates to a frame (ex. WORKS_ARCWAVE) inside top frame (ex. WORKS) but the whole frame (WORKS) remains scrollable so each project doesn’t have to be on a different page (frame)   This way the menu on home page is useless as it would always bring you to the top of WORKS page and I’m wondering if there is any way to make what I want possible. 

So, basically I am making an OTT app design, where the elements are supposed to move horizontally, but after putting them in auto layout, setting their frame to same as that of og frame, and doing everything, im getting this weird blank spaces on both sides, tried padding aswell. Please help, searched all over the net cant find the answer.Figma – 8 Apr 24

I am trying to horizontally scroll two frames inside a parent frame. While the scroll is working fine, there is an issue of extra white space occurring at the start and the end of the scroll. I am not able to get this issue fixed for some time now and seeking help for the same. Attached are the screenshots of the screen.

Basically I have a component which is always in the background of the design. When a toggle link is clicked I want to hide this in the prototype - and display it when the toggle clicked again. So basically the element shows/hides when another, separate element is clicked. I’ve setup a local boolean variable called “Grid Visible” which has the values true/false. I’ve then ensured the background component has this applied to it in the Layers panel by right clicking the eye icons and applying “Grid Visible” to it. If I go back to the Local Variables panels and click the “Value” so it slides between true/false the visibility of the component disappears and reappears - so that’s all working! But when I try to Prototype I can get the link (which is in a totally separate component) to work with “On Click” and then “Set Variable” or “Conditional”. This is what I currently have (below). In my head this is going On Click if the value = false, set it to false. If no

I have a TextNode that can include Rich Text. What would be the best approach to recognise style changes such as bold text, line breaks (These come as \n in the .characters property of the node), bullet points, etc.I’ve tried various methods, I managed to identify bold text using getStyledTextSegmentshttps://www.figma.com/plugin-docs/api/properties/TextNode-getstyledtextsegments/But I didn’t find a way to detect when the TextNode has bullet points.I basically need this because I’m converting the TextNode to HTML, so I need to be able to reliably identify every rich text property.Thanks in advance.

Please tell what will happen to the pages, if, having a Professional plan subscription, I create for example 30 pages inside one file. And will have only one file inside my only one project in the team. By canceling the subscription, will I be able to edit all 30 pages or not?Thanks to everyone who knows the answer and could share the info!

Hello there, I have downloaded an Avatar plug in and after using it , it sits on the bottom right side of my screen. it is animated and so my eye is constantly drawn to it. How do I get rid of it?

I have a prototype with two pages, each having a button to navigate to the other page. If I open the prototype on a laptop and press the button, it transitions to the second page. I want to know if it's possible to have this interaction also reflect in real-time on another device (e.g., a phone) that is viewing the same prototype simultaneously.Is there a way to achieve this in Figma natively, or are there plugins/tools that can enable real-time synchronization between devices for prototypes? Thank you

Q：I want the 「text 1」 adapt automatic in one component ，how can I set it？（The 「text 1」can not add max width, because the width of card「item」 is changing ） S：if figma can use function that the max with of「text 1」 is changing ，just like “max width=「title」-「tag」-gap(12)”， maybe can fix the problem

After the last update of the desktop version of movies for Windows, I cannot log in to the account in the application. When I launch the application, this window is displayed:   After clicking on the "Login with browser" button, this window appears:And nothing else happens. In other words, the authorization window does not open in the browser. I have already tried logging into the company in the browser and opening the project in the application from there, but it doesn't work and the application opens a window for me where it asks me to log in through the browser. How can this problem be solved?Browser: opera.

I have been experiencing this issue where if I have viewers added to the project and the files within the project inherit the project view settings the viewers are still unable to open each file within the project. And when I look at the files I only have 2 share options: “Only those invited” (which means I need to grant access on an individual basis or “Anyone” (which would result in ANYONE even outside the organization to be able to access it with the link)This feels like a bug to me because I need to add everyone one by one to every single file. And when I need to revoke access later in time I cannot do it globally, I have to go into EVERY SINGLE FILE to remove them. You can understand how problematic this is. Is there any solution so that everyone who is part of the organization or project automatically has access to every file within each project folder?? Or is this the intended functionality?

Hello everyone, I hope someone from Community Support can help me. Someone from Community Support has already helped me by sending me the expiration date of my education plan: 2025-02-08. Just checking if this means the 8th of February, 2025? I have a question regarding my education plan. Before it expires, I'd like to switch to a paid professional plan to retain all my projects and files. What's the best way to do this? Is it possible to convert my education plan into a paid professional plan? If so, can I change the associated school email (which I no longer have access to) to a personal one? Or would it be better to create a new account and assign my projects to that account? Thanks in advance for the help :)

Hey!Recently (Maybe last 6months) we have experienced Figma becoming more and more unstable/unreliable. We are using Branches on a daily basis for version handling and have had multiple errorsrecently, different documents & for different users.- Merge errors, not being able to merge, figma giving some generic error and then it usually solves it self eventually.- Documents not saving & with “forever” loading states stating its “saving” but it never manages to save, giving errors when you try to close figma documents. Usually you end up having to close and hope it saved anyway.- Unable to Publish Libraries, generic error with “retry option” but result is the same every time you “retry”, it keeps giving errors.- Libraries stating Variables have been removed when trying to publish, after restarting Figma the statement is no longer there and publishing library works as intended.Are
