I cannot figure out how to use auto layout space between like this Youtube video - I have 2 auto layout components that are in a auto layout component wit 1440 width.  How can I Put equal spacing between so they are positioned to the front and end of the nav. How can I add padding to the left side of the logo (first component)? 

I was using Figma on Chrome when an error occurred, and the file didn’t save. Upon checking, I noticed that some file pages were deleted. I tried undoing the changes using Ctrl+Z, but it only worked up to a certain limit. Can you suggest a solution?

The topic I am after was closed Absolute Positioning: Fill Horizontally. Starting a new thread in hopes something has changed. I have an input field component that I have a dropdown on, it’s placed with absolute position. The component needs to be responsive; the input itself resizes but the dropdown does not. The “fill container” option is removed from the dropdown when absolute positioning is applied to it. Image below.

Hi, I am struggling with the overlay feature, and the alternative option feels brutal.  I simply want the drop down of an input row to produce a modal. Some issues I’m having include: (1) height dimensions and managing a scrollable overlay and (2) using smart animate such that the dropdown modal appears from the bottom of the input bar rather than the top of the screen. Is this not possible? The alternative would be to create a frame hide it and switch between A LOT of variants. Has someone figured out how to manage overlays in a reasonable and dynamic manner? I’m not having much luck.

Hey there 👋 I’m getting crazy trying to understand why the super simple plugin I just created works fine locally (meaning that when I open the ui.html file generated, the ui is properly rendered) but when I launch it from Figma (after importing it through its manifest) it shows a blank page, the html inside is the template one and not the generated one 😭When I check the network tab in the console from Figma, the js is not there (and i don’t have any error when building or in the console)What am I doing wrong?Thanks in advance for whoever will take the time to help 😇

Hello. How do I find frame to use? I want to use the frame of a cell phone. I am building an app. 

I'm facing an issue in Figma. I want my button to have a hover effect with a click. But unfortunately, I can't do these 2 things together in Figma. Is this only in Figma design, or does this type of button not work in development as well? Thanks

Has anyone else encounted editable text turning into uneditable vectors - even though you haven’t manually converted it. A lot of the text on my page is now uneditable - and I’m struggling to figure out why it’s happened…!

OK, so a common thing, at least for me as a designer, is going back some steps, copying something and then going further to the “present” and using what I have copied. Now I don’t know if it’s in Figma (probably yes) but just now in FigJam it turned out going back and copying resets history which is a big NO NO. Why would copying start new history feed in the file?

Hi! I’ve been using text variables to help map each text field to a specific string ID for localization - but when I select a text variable in a component with a text property, inspecting that text field won’t show the variable in dev mode. My current workaround is to detach all components with a text property, but I was wondering if anyone had better solutions. Thanks!

To begin with, I want to clarify, that I love Figma, it is literally the tool for web designers… sorry for the other aps, but Figma is, by its philosophy and its disposition, it is like that… so we have to collaborate to improve it as much as possible. The work that you team have done… pufff… is BRUTAL, you have really created something beautiful. Reflection: Well, as designers, or programmers we like Figma❤️…we really love it… It’s a beautiful tool. Why else would we spend time learning it and come to want more sophisticated and efficient workflows to be developed? This only happens when you have exhausted all the known methods that the program itself offers you to do what you can do… What I mean by this? In summary: the main question is clearly in the title of this topic… But really… Why is it taking so long? Is there anything we as developer

Hi, I finally figured out conditional prototyping and this is a game changer to me.Now I can use component with only one variant, but conditionally prototyped.(If you need some example: it’s a check box, and when check an additional input field “Please, specify” appears)… By default, my variable is false (unselected checkmark) and the input is hidden.This is great for prototype and usability testing using the prototype, However, I have concerns about how my PM will comment my designs and also how developers will discover that?Do I still need to create another variant to show checked view? How do you solve this? 

I’m working on a project in Figma and would like to align my elements using smart guides with percentages as the units. Currently, they display in pixels, but I need them to be in percentages to create a responsive design. Can someone guide me on how to change the units of smart guides to percentages in Figma? Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,I am writing to you as a loyal and professional Figma user for several years. I would like to express my interest in the new UI3 and Figma AI features that you recently introduced.I'm a designer who uses Figma on a daily basis to create designs, logos, website models, branding and many other creative projects. I'm also registered with Figma Pro through my school, which allows me to take full advantage of your platform's features.Having followed Figma announcements and updates closely, I quickly expressed my interest in Figma AI by activating it in my account settings as soon as possible. However, despite using Figma intensively for several hours each day, I still haven't had access to this feature.I understand that Figma AI is being rolled out gradually and randomly, and that some people have been lucky enough to get it before me. Nevertheless, I've been looking forward to using Figma AI for several months now, and I'm convinced that this feature wo
