Hello, since the last update, one of the most valuable feature in my opinion making Figma a real real tools especially these days where vibe coding has only the focus on the generative ui, Figma makes both (more fourth stage) which in my opinion one of the pillar tool that understood the current evolution of product design, and in a honest and decent pricing.While Figma Make have the whole attention of users it seems, it’s in fact in my opinion, the wrong usage of Figma Make.The golden workflow were as is : 1.Figma Design2.Figma Sites3. In Figma Site > Pasting Figma Design 3. In Figma Site > Creating components/code layout using Make in Figma Site (even using 21stdev for example) , animation etc 4. In Figma Site > Have a supercharged full blown “storybook” style library but in a insanely modular/flexible and with great affordance for dev and non dev5. In Figma Site > Composing the interface with the code components generated 6. End result : A perfect alliance between desig
literally a component that would be an 'input', when I use the 'extended' part where the selection opens, I configure it with the information I need, but in the prototype it remains as it was at the beginning.Exemple:Imagine that you have 3 options, flex 1, 2 and 3, but when I go to the prototype, or if I close Figma, it goes back to the component default. If anyone can help me, I'd be grateful!
TBH quite disappointing. I purchased a Pro plan solely because of the integrated MCP server, only for it to not work on Cursor (even with all the recommended solutions) and me having to implement alternatives that would have worked on the Free plan. [This post was split from the original thread titled “Figma MCP not working” and retitled “Question: How to set up Figma MCP Server on Cursor?” on Oct 8, 2025.]
Hello,I am a full-time faculty member at one of the global campuses of a well-known U.S.-based university. Our campus is registered as a local higher education institution in my country and is listed as such in the verification process. I am listed as a faculty member both on the local campus page and on the U.S. university’s website.However, after submitting the required documentation to SheerID, I received a message that my document was in a foreign language and would require additional processing time (from half an hour up to two days). This timeframe has passed, yet I have not received any feedback from SheerID, and I still appear as unverified inside Figma. When I try to re-submit, I encounter a limit reached notification. A colleague of mine completed the verification process without any issues.I am already well into the semester, teaching two courses that rely heavily on Figma, so maintaining uninterrupted access is crucial. Needless to say, the user experience of this re-verifi
Hello, i created i section in my figjam. I shared it via link but the flipcards a placed in the section do not interact. If I open the content within my own browser under my account I can flipp them and the open cards are showing for others who got the link, but they are unable to flip the cards.
When are Figma going to add variables for custom cubic-bezier and durations? We have a design system with a custom library and it’s a real pain adding these to prototypes manually and leads to a bunch of inconsistencies.
Gifford is so far the best gif export plugin I’ve tried however today I keep encountering an issue that I cannot figure out how to fix!! I’m trying to export frames into a gif - they are 1080 x 1920. I select them all and go to export and the gift comes out with thick white edges on either side and it’s actually resizing the image to 800 x 800. I’ve not ever had it resize the image before. The frame are all the right size and the content is clipped. Anyone have this issue and anyone know how to fix it?!
I teach an UiUx course in a spanish university and We are unable to validate a few accounts. please need some help
I have 2 files, a mockup file and a text strings variables file with 2 modes. I updated the text variables using a plugin (Sheets <> variables) this plugin replaced old values with new ones and kept the same variable names. On the mockup file, previous values were already assigned, Updating the Text librray file (after publishing) is not updating the variables. Although it does show the updated value in both modes (arabic and english) if I reassign the same text string variable manually. Going over the text one by one would be a hassle, is there a solution to reflect the updates directly, I was expecting it would after updating. Thank you
Some code connect snippets will include imports that do not exist:import com.example.ComponentSomeComposable()The actual code connect file will look like this:package com.exampleimport androidx.compose.runtime.Composableimport com.example.SomeThemeimport com.figma.code.connect.FigmaConnect@FigmaConnect("https://www.figma.com/design/something")private class SomeComposableDoc { @Composable fun Component() { SomeComposable() }}@AlarmPreviews@Composableprivate fun SomePreview() { SomeTheme { SomeComposableDoc().Component() }}It seems that it mistakes the method Component for an import. All of my connected classes use the same name for their composable method.
I’m adding hyperlinks to an editable template in Figma Buzz, and the ‘Mailto:’ function does not seem to work (says invalid link every time). Is there a way around this? I found a plugin to try, but apparently I cannot open the desired plugin within Buzz (fault with Buzz it seems?). ‘Manage plugins’ does nothing in Buzz...
I’m having a problem with the text tool and how it interacts with the rest of my project. Previously, I would be able to hit “T”, click wherever I want the text, hit escape, and that would be it. Now, when I hover the cursor over a rectangle for example, the cursor has a little curve under it, and when I click, the rectangle just disappears. In the layers side bar, it changes the layer name from “Rectangle 2” to “text on a path.”I tried restarting the Figma app, but it’s still doing it. I’m really not sure what I did. How do I get it back to normal? This is the odd cursor in question.
I work for an org who have disabled Open Sessions- due to confidentiality risk. Is there anyway for the admin to allow a group of users to have this functionality- ie ring fence functionality for only some users??
Hi there! I work for a company that owns over 17 different brands with different brand colors. I want to use Figma Buzz to bulk create a visually identical ad for all the brands, but I want the background color to change across each ad to correspond with the unique color of each brand. My company has used Token Studio to create color tokens for each brand, and these are linked to Figma Variables. Is there any way in Figma Buzz to link a spreadsheet column to color Variables so that when I use Bulk Create it automatically switches to the correct brand color while keeping the token connected?Hope that makes sense! I used have an example screenshot below as a visual of what I would want to happen as well
I have a navigation bar component with a variant for each product and I want to set the icon for both the default state and the selected state so that they are filled when selected. I have this set on the parent component but when I try to use it in an instance, it does not have the icon and just shows the default Here is it set in the parent component when selected Here is it set when in default When I insert an instance of the main component and change the icon buttons to a different state, it resets the icon to the default This navigation bar component is composed of smaller components including this icon button… not sure where the problem lies. After I set it once in the instance of the main component it works every time I switch it, but it would be nice for my designers not to have to do that every time .
This is the project file address
When placing a text layer inside a frame (without any fill, stroke, or effect), Figma shows an unexpected additional color (usually black) in the “Selection Colors” panel.This happens even if the text is styled correctly using a color variable, and there are no other visible color sources. The color cannot be selected, changed, or removed. Adding a transparent fill just adds another color to the list. The issue appears consistently as soon as a text layer is placed inside any frame. This seems to be a misleading behavior in the Selection Colors panel, as the color is not visually present or technically applied to any element. Any takes on this?
I saw this topic raised in the past. Wanted to surface it again because this continues to be an issue for me now and has been throughout the years I’ve been using Figma. Comments do not get copied over when duplicating a file or when exporting a .fig file. Has anyone found a workaround for this? @Figma_Support Is an update for this issue coming our way in the future?
can someone help me? thanks a lot!
Hi,I would like to move a Figma Make project from my current account to a new Figma account, it is possible to export and import a project ?
Hi Figma,In my main design system, currently i have these 4 collection. But after renaming a collection from 'Semantic (Device)' to 'Device-Type (S)' in the main design system file, now I can see both collection names in the working file. I requested for a help from figma support team, unfortunately the options they said not worked.
Hi There,It seems images are embedded - is that right?So each time they’re updated externally, they have to be manually re-placed one at a time anywhere they’re used - is that right?Also, does this mean you can’t easily find an image with a Figma design file, and reveal its file location for round-trip editing?Sorry if this is easy, I’ve found lots of confusing threads (some are old though) but the answers seem complex for something as basic as image updating.Any pointers in the right direction much appreciated.Cheers, Ben
How can I find or where can I see the name of the course/bootcamp linked to my Figma student plan?
I’m unable to bulk load images as file paths in Figma Buzz. I tried both csv and xlsx files and when I upload the file it reads it as a text field . I’m just wondering if we are doing something wrong? Thanks
Steps to Reproduce: Create a new text layer. Apply the font Noto Looped Thai – SemiBold. Type English characters (A–Z). Expected Result:English characters should display properly with correct styling in SemiBold weight.Actual Result:English characters do not render correctly.
