Cookie Banner on Prototype Embed

I was embedding a Figma prototype in a Website using iframe, and the embed shows a cookie banner above the prototype, which is not an ideal user experience. Is there any way to remove that cookie banner? Thanks Hafiz

When using variables frame content disappears

Hello everyone. I’m experiencing a really strange situation when using variables in my designs. Sometimes the content inside a frame (node) disappears. In the attached image, you can see on the right how the “Badges” component is (Badges->Status-Font-Sizes->Status); on the left, it is empty because it is connected with a variable. In that case, my design is blank. Is there any solution that would help me? Thanks.

Need Help Removing File from Figma Someone's Shared Tab

User A is the file owner and shared the file with User B. After User B viewed the file, it now appears in the “Recent” section under the “Shared” tab. Despite User B’s attempt to remove the file from the shared tab, Figma displays a message stating, “You have no permission to delete the file forever.” It’s worth noting that User “A” cannot see User “B” listed as a collaborator, yet the file remains visible in User B’s shared tab. How can User B remove the file from both the “Recent” and “Shared” tabs? It seems like there might be a bug or an issue in the permissions system. Has anyone else experienced a similar situation? Your insights and assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Absolute positioned, constrained item inside auto layout frame doesn't move with parent

Child is absolute, constrained with bottom/right. If the parent frame has fixed height/width, the child moves as expected. If the parent has dynamic height/width (e.g. fill/hug) the child doesn’t move. Any ideas? Parent: https://puu.sh/K0LmA/8ef71f39b4.png Child: https://puu.sh/K0Lmn/9ad1fbf448.png Result (dynamic parent): https://puu.sh/K0Lmq/a107393cb1.png Result (fixed height): https://puu.sh/K0Lmw/8a98976842.png

Not all pages are available in a library

I just synced a rather big file with about 50 pages and 1000+ icons to make it available as a library. In another file I can then only access 4 pages. Is there any limitation on pages/components in a library or why am I only receiving 4 (for me random) pages?

Create a menu for a web page

I have created this graphic in illustrator representing a menu, which allows you to scroll through the various pages of a website. When you hover your mouse over one of the numbers corresponding to the page, this line positions itself next to the pointer of your mouse on the number of the page you stopped on. The problem is that I can’t create it in adobe xd. I create a component for when I hover the mouse over the number 1. I insert the line in the component, so that it moves together, but the problem comes out, when I create a second component, with the number 2. the line being inside component 1 I can’t move it. I cannot create a second line and hide the first one, because it is on another component. I tried to create a single component, with both the numbers (1 - 2 - 3 etc…) and the line inside, but by doing so, I could not select the number and whichever number I placed the mouse over, the line would always be placed in the same place. I apologise for a very poorly made explanatio

Font Weights in Figma vs in Webflow: How to switch „normal“ and „regular”?

Hey all, I attended to use the Figma to Webflow-Plugin for faster building my websites AND without manually editing colors an fonts. So what happened was: First installed the fonts for my webpage in Webflow manually (Branch, Castro and Sofia Pro). When I wanted to install “SofiaPro Regular” it says this in Webflow Normal! But in Figma there is no “Normal” but just “regular” If I use the F2W-Plugin it doesn’t recognize the “normal” font type and changes my design to the fallback option. That leads to a lot of manual work in Webflow, changing the fonts manually. So have you any idea to solve this? Or is there a tool which lets me change the Font Weight name from “Regular” to “Normal”? Thanks for helping me 😊

Cannot make a POST request in figma plugin

Hi there 🙂 I am trying to execute a POST request. I already succeed with GET request with fetch method (from typescript lib) but I tried a lot of alternatives (axios, node-fetch) to make a POST request without succeed. So I come back to the basics from the Figma documentation and trying to do my request like that: var request = new XMLHttpRequest() request.open('POST', url) request.responseType = 'text' request.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json') request.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer XXX') request.setRequestHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*') request.onload = () => { console.log("request.response " + request.response) window.parent.postMessage({ pluginMessage: request.response }, '*') }; request.send() I have this error: Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: XMLHttpRequest is not a constructor I am building my Figma plugin with webpack and typescript Do you have any ideas? Thanks in advance 🙂

No alternative word suggestions appearing for misspelt words

Hi, I’m not sure if this is a Figma or Mac OS issue. When I have red underlined misspelt words in Figma, I can’t right-click on them to get the correct spelling. I’ve just set up on a new Mac, on my previous machine I could always right-click and see alternative spellings. Any help much appricated.

How to export a Figma Design after Dev Mode became paid?

Hi everyone, So I have been using Figma for a while for my designs, and I have been using the Dev Mode to export them to HTML. However, since Dev Mode is now paid, I cannot export it anymore. Since my design file was created prior to the dev mode pricing, the dev mode still somewhat works, but I can’t run Anima, the plugin I have been using to do this. Everytime I try to run it I get the error “canRunPlugins check failed”. Is there any way to still export them to HTML, or is it a lost cause?

Newbie UXer, needs some guidelines :)

Hello! I’m a newbie UXer, I did 1 year of an online course, and I’m starting to build my portfolio. I choose a project to give an answer to the housing crises in my country. As a newbie I’m really unsure, and I don’t have anyone that I know in the field that can help me. I’m unsure about the colours. I choose the blues because it leads people to think about serenity and trust. 2.I’m not sure what to do about the “advanced animations” like swiping, I need to do that at this point, or just the design that that option is there, is enough? I’m not sure what to do to simulate when a button is active or not.(They are already built as components, I just don’t know how to do the animation, when people choose one option or other) What is a good model that I should follow to build my portfolio?

How to get origin !== null in iFrame

I am trying to follow the guide OAuth with Plugins | Plugin API but I got stuck on point 3. This plugin iframe redirects to a hostname under your control, for example a page hosted on your internet server. This will place the iframe on a non-null origin, which enables us to securely check its identity later in the flow. After opening an iFrame for authorization the origin is still null. figma.showUI( `<script> window.location.href = "https://myAuthProvider"; console.log(window.origin); //null </script>`, { height: 600, width: 400 } );

Fonts import when download from Community?

Is Figma going to force us into Dev Mode?

Let me start by saying Dev mode looks very cool, useful, helpful etc and I hope my dev teams agree and want to use it/PAY for it. That said I work at an extremely large company with an exceptionally large dev team. Just tacking on 25/year for each dev seat will likely be a blocker for us. I do not have the will nor bandwidth to put on my internal salesman hat and convince finance teams to take this on. One of the KEY reasons we adopted FIgma was the lower barrier to collaboration via free dev seats. So my question is: After beta is over can teams work they way we did prior to dev mode? Regardless of how cool dev mode is, the added cost changes the paradigm significantly for large teams. If the answer to this is “no” it likely could send us back to Sketch/Abstract.
