When I try to export a frame, Figma downloads a zip folder. I’d like to download just a single image of the frame. I’ve read through other suggestions on similar posts, but they have not worked for me. I’ve tested other frames. I’ve tested exporting as a png or jpg. I’m only selecting one frame at a time. My frame does not have a “/” in its title. It even downloads a zip folder when I select a single shape or piece of text. This didn’t used to happen, and I’m not sure what changed. Does anyone have any advice?

it was so hard to find compairing with the older version...This is BAD as this function is a frequently used function!

Around 2–3 months ago, Figma links to slides and frames used to be shorter and cleaner. Now, when you copy a link to a slide, frame, or object, the URL is significantly longer and more complex.🔍 Example: Before: https://www.figma.com/file/abc123/My-Project Now:https://www.figma.com/file/abc123/My-Project?type=design&node-id=44%3A2920&t=abcd1234&page-id=44%3A2919&mode=designCan I copy the shorter link?

When cropping an image, it’s not always possible to hold down the arrow keys to reposition the image within the crop boundary. Sometimes it doesn’t move more than one step. It’s a little frustrating and inconsistent.It seems to have something to do with what’s in focus - when I click the image and it becomes focussed in the Properties panel (under Fill), then holding the arrow keys works. When it’s not focussed in the Properties panel (but still selected on the canvas) it doesn’t allow you to hold the arrow keys, yet you can still move one step at a time.I’ve only noticed this behaviour happening recently.Of course, you can drag to quickly move the image within the cropped area, but this doesn’t snap to the pixel grid (even when snap to pixel grid is turned on) - but this is besides the point.

On the canvas, the mouse arrow is always replaced by that tool, that is currently selected. But on hovering over e.g. the edge of a section, over elements with comment tool active etc., the mouse stays the same and onl shows a mouse arrow, instead or the resizing icon, or the comment icon etc. Mouse Arrow does not change on hovering over elements, so that its unclear wich tool is being used or is availablePlease make repair the mouse to change to the right tool on hovering on different contexts again. It really makes working harder, because you are not sure which tool is currently selected.Thank you!

I remember there used to be an option to download the ZIP from Sites and Maker, but I can't find it anymore. Did they move it or remove it?

Variable Swapping for Corner Radius Across Libraries Even when number variables (e.g., corner-radius-sm) are named and structured the same in two libraries, Figma does not swap them automatically. This breaks consistency and forces manual rework.

Good day. I am attaching a photo. 1. I created an ellipse 2. I blurred it using blur 3. I am trying to change the overlay type. It does not change.

Hi everyoneI’m facing an issue with one of my files in Figma. I’m the Team Owner, but the file has somehow become ownerless after trying to move it from Projects to Drafts and back. Now it just shows no owner, and I can’t find any option to reclaim it, even though it’s inside my team space and I have “can edit” access.I contacted Figma support, but the AI assistant said ownerless files can't be claimed directly, only ownerless projects can. It also mentioned that I can still edit the file or grant access to others, but that doesn’t help with actual ownership.Has anyone experienced this before?Is there any workaround or way to properly reclaim ownership of a file in this situation?

Is there a way to pause animations on click or tap? I have a play/pause button that has a circular progress bar inside of it. I would like to click it, then as the progress bar animates around the circle, I would like to be able to click the button again and have the bar stop/pause, then be able to click once more and have it continue to animate where it left off. Is this even passible? 

My dev mode is not starting even if ive verified my student account.

When sharing a link to a page in Figma to a viewer, we have recently experienced that the viewer can not see the updates made by the designer when the reviewer is revisiting the page via the link the day after?It’s creating a lot of frustrations when you think the viewer is seeing the same thing as the designer is, but they can’t see the updates that have been made since last.We have not noticed this earlier. Is there a fix for it?We have also experienced that the updates made by one designer (in the most recent case a new page added in a file) was not visible to another designer until the other designer reopened the file. This causing great frustrations when designers working together online on the same project.

Recently I got a problem with my Figma projects (web and app likewise) - all the PNG files in any project does not load, as well as their thumbnails (the thumbnails got partially fixed at some point, but now are not loading again).My attempts to fix the issue:Pressed Help - Troubleshoot - Reset Figma and Restart couple of times. Cleared my both C and D drives (not completely), removed the unnecessary .fig, .psd, .png files, some apps, even the After Effects and Media Encoder, since the initial thought was the problem was caused by some sort of incompatibility.  Cleared the browser cache (both the Chrome-based one I use and the Chrome itself). Updated the AMD drivers to the latest version. Updated Figma app to the latest version. Re-installed Figma app like 5 times, and I hope it was a proper reinstall, since everytime I opened FigmaSetup, it just went straight to the app, without even a chance of choosing different drive to install (I don’t remember how did the app behave the very firs

In vector editing mode, command+click (or bend tool + click) on a node removes the toggle handles. Is there a way to remove the handles for all selected nodes at the same time?

I have a brand font installed but it’s not rendering any punctuation correctly e.g. “ ? ! & all become generic and off-brand. They’re very distinctive and look obviously wrong but the font is fine in Adobe. How can I continue to use Figma for design and solve this issue, I don’t want to move into Adobe, it’s going to slow my process down SO much and I’ve invested so much time into building out my design system.Thanks!

I’m working on a link component where I want the icon to follow the text. Does anyone know of a solution for this? See images belowAny help or suggestions are welcome, even hacky solutions :) Not working as wishedDesired solution 

Hi! My team has a Professional plan. The admin is the person who is responsible for the organization billing and the person who has access to the credit card.However she is not a designer and my manager does not agree in paying a licence for someone that really won’t use it. It doesn't make sense.According to Figma documentation the View seat doesn't allow the user to manage the billing.Is there any other way to allow her to take car of teh billing without needing the Full seat? Thanks!

Ciao a tutti!I have a question about the Education plan.I am part of three different “edu” teams under the same account, and I received a message stating that my Education access is expiring in 2 weeks. However, the message doesn’t specify which team.From what I understand, the plan applies per team, not per account.Has anyone run into the same situation? How do you check which team is affected? Thanks,Maurizio

hi all, I’m adding a stroke to a block of text but the rounding seems quite severe - is this just because the text itself has some rounding? Anything I can do to remove the rounding? Thanks!  

I am building a plugin that identifies whether a component is linked to a design system library. If the component is linked to a library, I want to identify the name of the library it is coming from.For example, if I use a component from the iOS design system library in my design file, I want to detect that it's linked and show that the component is from the “iOS” design system. How do I get the library name from the node?

When I copy a component and paste it only the text part of the component getting pasted, loosing all the properties associated with that component. 

I reach out a few months ago about Figma not working on chormebooks and the issue seems to be back.  Attached is a message a student gone on their chromebook.  Is there anyway you can help?  Thank you.

Not really sure how to log this because I don’t think it’s a question, and it’s not really worth having a conversation around, but I’m noticing this ‘dead space’ on the effects and stroke panel. I’ve restarted my Figma file + app multiple times but it doesn’t change anything. The only thing that fixes is it if I scroll up in the right panel… as if there’s an imaginary square blocking me from clicking the `+` button.  Video for reference You can see if I hover here, there’s no hover state (it’s not letting me click it):  But if I were to scroll or add a stroke, I can add an effect:  The video will show you a better idea of what I’m talking about lol, but I’d like to flag this. This isn’t working on my other computer, so it’s confusing but also annoying. 

Hi! I have a strange problem.When I use Auto Layout in the **web version** of Figma, everything works fine. The Auto Layout panel appears on the right and I can change padding, spacing, direction, etc.But in the **desktop version**, even after pressing Shift + A and applying Auto Layout to a frame, the Auto Layout panel doesn't appear on the right side at all.Things I already tried:– Reinstalled the app– Cleared cache (from AppData folders)– Restarted computer– Switched UI modes– Tried different files– Used another Windows user account– Checked latest versionStill the panel is missing in desktop app, but works fine in web. I'm using Windows and live in Uzbekistan.Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance! 

Hello, Are there more information about the rate limits?
