When I export any objects from Figma to PNG, the result files have the same transparent areas as in original objects. But not in PDF - transparent areas always replace with white color areas! Exporting from Figma, you can see the transparent area around the icon: Result (png), transparency saved: Result (pdf) transparency was replaced with white color:

I created variables for weight, font family, and sizes. In our design library, I updated all our font styles with variables. The variables are listed below. The problem is that sometimes, the fonts would show up as “Open Sans Condensed” instead of “Open Sans”. The only way to correct it was to break the link to the style and then reapply it. It broke many components and styles where this library was used. I disconnected all the variables from the font styles and defined them as one would normally. I published the library again. Updated the library within the file and the font on the text was still wrong. The fix is to select the component. Reset changes and then undo. Not sure what I did wrong or why it broke so much stuff. But, I would like to resolve it as we plan on making several different modes for different accessibility needs and this would save us a considerable amount of time. Note: Open Sans is not installed locally. The problem occurs on Mac and PC using Chrome, Firefox, and

Problem:I have Figma Code Connect set up and working in my project (I can see other components like TextField from @pperform/atum are properly connected), but when I query the code connect mapping for a specific Figma component, I get an empty result {}. I’m sure that i already get the right component which have the setting code connect.Setup:Figma Code Connect is configured and working for other components in the projectUsing React/TypeScript frontend with @pperform/atum design systemCan see "Connected" status in Figma for other components (e.g., TextField). Expected Behavior:Should return the code mapping/connection details for the Figma component

Hey! I am currently experimenting with Code Connect and yesterday while reading I came up to a document that was related to best practices to be followed by designers in order for Code Connect to work at its best, but I am not able to find it today. Could someone help? Thanks!

I have created a file containing components and styles that I would like to re-use in other files, so I published the library. When I include the library in another file, all the components etc. show up, but not the typography or color styyles. What am I missing?

Hi community,My colleague and I suddenly run into this issue. When we select any text elements, including creating a new one, not bounded to any styles or components or variables, the colours won’t show any library files. It only shows 1 colour swatch. See image below. This swatch was created in this file somehow. I cannot even delete or modify it.  The file was working the day before, but suddenly broke. I found this post, but the answer doesn’t address the issue.Does anyone know how to solve this please? Thank you so much in advance. 

In figma Make i ran up to the limit of the AI Chat with claude sonnet 4. i can’t ask it anything anymore. It gives an error. Can i clear all cache on the chat somehow , so i can continue the project? anyone who can help with this?

Hello friends,I’ve found that my project came back to 10 days ago and I tried to check the version history but is so strange because between June 18 and June 25, all the versions look the same. I can see changes before and after that period. Can you help how can recover missing changes?Best regards Sahar

Hello!! I have code connect snippets set up within my Figma system and I am attempting to use Cursor to get the code from Figma. When I try to do this, I am receiving this response, stating no Code Connect files exist.Below is a screen shot of my frame and connected snippets. Did anyone else encounter this problem and have any solutions? This was working for the past two weeks so wondering what has changed with MCP or Cursor. 

i want to scroll through my design when in prototype mode but i don’t want the cursor to be visible because it just makes it annoying. anyway to solve this?

1st image is google font page, but in figma ‘&’ is apper in a diffrent way (see 2nd image), earlier it was correct.

When I want to change the font of any text in Figma there is no preview of it’s name in the dropdown selection - only the loading skeleton.The functionality works - the font changes and I can see the name outside of the dropdown but it’s hard to navigate when I use the search bar.I’m using the browser version and I have a paid account. It”s the same no matter if I’m connected to WiFi or LAN cable. Have someone run into that issue?

Not sure if anyone noticed but I feel like Figma Audio Chat has been generally less reliable ever since the switch to UI3. One of the main issues we’ve discovered when working with our developers on Figma is the audio chat disconnecting while we switch between Dev and Design mode. It’s a normal part of our process to make changes in design mode and switch back to developer mode to review things while discussing with our developers. The audio chat module has also been noticeably buggy ever since the switch to UI3 as a mentioned. It would disappear when I’ve joined a session, join button may appear even when I’m already in the audio chat, follow and spotlight feature may appear finicky as well. Since then we’ve switched to calling outside of Figma so it’s not the biggest deal, however it would be nice to have these things fixed so we could seamlessly collaborate without switching to a different platform for audio chats.

I created a Google Sheets file containing images for bulk creation, but when I upload the .xlsx file, the images appear as a text field instead of an image field, preventing me from linking it to the asset. 

When I come back to edit an interaction on a variant, other interactions just magically disappear! They’re gone!!! They are no longer there. Can we please fix this? I can’t be the only one this is happening to, right???

The marker tool in figjam has changed. Unlike other drawing tools, Figjam’s previous marker was very responsive to touch, not rounding or softening pen strokes. But now as I draw, I can physically see my pen stroke changing as I draw. I am precise with my drawing and writing, so this was a let down for me as what I draw is not maintained. Can we turn this off/disable this new feature?

I'm running into a small issue when switching icon variants inside a component instance.In general, I apply a specific color override to icons, and everything works fine in the main component: when I swap an icon, it keeps the overridden color as expected.However, when I use an instance of that component and change the icon variant (for example, from Brand A to Brand B), the color override disappears. The icon reverts to its default color, even though the rest of the component still respects the correct theme.What's odd is that this only happens in instances — in base components or standalone frames, the override persists just fine.[Get here](https://heyapks.net/block-blast/)Has anyone else experienced something like this? Or is there a workaround to keep the color override when swapping icon variants inside component instances?Thanks in advance!

Hey all, I’ve been noticing two issues that might be related: Slow Loading at Bottom: When I scroll to the bottom of the file list (especially in larger projects with lots of files), it sometimes takes a long time to load more files. Occasionally it just gets stuck or lags noticeably. Duplicate Files: Some files are appearing twice in the same project. Not sure if this is just a visual bug or something else, but it usually happens at the bottom of the scroll and trying to load more files. Anyone else running into this? Wondering if it’s a known issue or if there’s a workaround. Thanks!

Hi Figma Community, I’m experiencing an issue with font rendering in my Figma prototype, and I could really use some help! The font is Apple DS Gothic Neo (an embedded font) The font looks fine when I’m designing, but when I view the prototype, the text appears distorted or uses a different font entirely. I’ve tried clearing my cache, restarting Figma, and even reinstalling the font, but the problem persists. Has anyone else faced this issue before? Are there any specific settings I should check, or is there a workaround? I’d appreciate any advice or suggestions on how to resolve this! Thanks in advance! 🙏

What I’m doing wrong? I generated some Flutter code (with the help of visual code/copilot and the Figma MCP server) from my Figma design: class IPhone161 extends StatelessWidget { // Bild-URLs vom lokalen MCP-Server static const imgScreenshot202505181133481 = 'http://localhost:3845/assets/40302311985739cf5b0d629966628c418a2cb3ae.png'; static const imgEllipse1 = 'http://localhost:3845/assets/5747de95ba735346045eb9f07a9e21c55e00f7b8.svg'; static const imgFrame = 'http://localhost:3845/assets/2d63044c4aee77ef3b5702988be5cbcb4764e5a5.svg'; @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return Scaffold( backgroundColor: Color(0xFFFFFFFF),But if I start the app, it is blank. Then I tried to access the asset (PNG file) directly from my browser and got a 404 error (This localhost page can’t be found). Seems that the MCP Server can’t serve the assets?

I believe there is a serious bug in the Variable Table of Figma.Recently, I've been experiencing strange issues where tokens I never created are suddenly showing up all over my design system. For example, tokens like background-2, background-3, background-4, and background-5 appear out of nowhere. Additionally, when I rename a token — such as changing text-error to just error — it sometimes reverts back to text-error on its own, or even turns into something like error-2. These are not actions I performed. It honestly feels like a ghost is tampering with my work.This is extremely concerning. I'm working on a large-scale design system, and issues like this are not just annoying — they're critical. They undermine trust in the system and the consistency we depend on.Since last week, I’ve noticed this happening repeatedly during token work. Just to be sure, I created a brand-new file today and manually set up primitive values and tokens again — but after a while, the same ghost-like changes

Hi guys!Could you please advise me on how to come back to the team I accidentally left?I left the wrong team and thus lost editing rights to my files and don’t see the list of the files I’ve created. I contacted 2 team members, yet they haven’t answered me yet. I also can’t see who else was on the team to contact them.I have an educator plan and can’t contact support as well, so community is my only chance to undo my actions 😢I left the  

Hi,I’m having an issue with the variables. I created a design system with all the relevant variables and then published. I made sure all variables are with the correct scope details and all are NOT hidden from publishing. After enabling that library in a new design file, i tried to use a color variable on a new shape and it simply doesn’t load the colors in the small thumbnail squares. They just stay forever with the default color variable icon. I tested this with new files and new libraries and variables but the issue keeps happening. It seems like it is stuck in a forever loading stage. Other colleagues of mine can use the library and see the variables in their square thumbnails, so im guessing its my issue. After this i made sure my figma was updated and even uninstalled it and installed again. I’ve also tested this with both app and web browser.Interestingly, when i do select a color from the variables on the right panel, the color appears!Has someone had this issue? I’m really run

Hi Figma Team,Last month I was on the Colab plan, and I paid $5 for it (June invoice). But now my account was automatically switched to a different plan — I see an overdue charge of $35, even though I didn’t change anything myself.Why did this happen? I didn’t intend to upgrade my plan and now I can't switch back to Colab or proceed with payment.Could you please help me get back to the Colab plan and cancel the unwanted charge?Thanks in advance!Best,Valera Harahash
