I’m trying to build a prototype where a number will change based on some randomization. The idea is I have my Total number variable, and my Modifier number variable which are added together to update the Total. I’d love for the Modifier number variable to pull randomly from a list. It seems the best way to do this is to use a randomizer plugin that updates a text field from a list, but then I can’t figure out how to get the Modifier variable in my variable settings to use that number. Also open to totally different ways to solve / try this if it gets to the same result of having a base value that can be randomized within certain parameters. Thanks so much!

My device is Mac mini m2. 8 GB, 256 GB. When I use Figma, &zoom in, zoom out, or do something, my screen goes back. RAM is 2 GB, and storage is 80 GB empty. What is the problem?

I am using the figma mcp’s get_image config for the image is as follows  when i click on a node and select copy as png the image is clear crisp but when i use mcp to export the image its blurry and not so great

Hi all, I am creating a symbol language with vector graphics of various irregular shapes, set into diamond-shaped frames.   Question 1: What is the best way to regularize the sizing of these graphics? As you can see, I can’t really set a regular height or width, as the shapes take all different forms, and some are wider while others are taller. What you see above is eyeballed, but as I’m aiming to get these printed (like a deck) I really want to do best practices here and figure out a more accurate method. Question 2: Once that question is answered, the question of spacing comes up. For the above, that’s relatively easy if you want to set them centered, but if two (or more) symbols are on a diamond, then their shapes again are irregular and therefore center-snapping doesn’t work. Both symbols together with eyeballed spacingRight side vector frame highlighted to show shapeLeft side vector graphic frame highlighted to show shapeQuestion 3: If there is a way to regularize the sizing that

I'm pretty new to Figma and this is my first time creating a prototype. I have my nav bar fixed to the bottom and I'm having issues creating scroll-to interactions for my menu when it's expanded. I have a components frame where I added variants for my bottom nav: default and its expanded state. I dragged the bottom nav component to my home page frame and was able to add some navigate-to interactions without issue. But when I try adding a scroll-to interaction (so when the user clicks Contact, it scrolls down to that section of the page), nothing happens. I suspect it's likely due to the nav bar being fixed, but I really don't know any way around this. My nav bar needs to be fixed, so I'm hoping someone might have some suggestions?

I tried centering the transform origin and applying a new frame, but the same issue persists ;(The strange thing is that the small button moves to the left even though the coordinates are the same.Even though the constraints are set to the center.My AI says this issue occurs because Figma aligns elements to the top left.How can I fix this?

Hello everyone,I'm developing a FigJam plugin and have encountered an issue when trying to access the children of a SectionNode. The behavior seems to depend on the section's lock state, and I'd like to understand if there's a way to get the children even when the section is locked.I've tested the following scenarios using the code snippet below:1. Section not locked: I can successfully get the children.2. Lock background only: I cannot get the children. The node.children property returns an empty array.3. Children placed on the section and then the section is locked (Lock all): I can successfully get the children.4. Section locked  (Lock all) and then children are placed on it: I cannot get the children.I'm specifically looking for a way to get the children in scenarios 2 and 4. Is there a specific API or method to achieve this? Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!  const selection = figma.currentPage.selection; if(selection.length === 1){  

Hi - is there a way to have a dropdown accordion in Figma sites without having to build it custom or have to use Make? It seems like this would be a simple layout to offer.

The recent update to Figma's keyboard shortcuts has introduced a significant usability issue that impacts designers' workflow, particularly in image cropping operations. Previously, when working with images, the up and down arrow keys naturally controlled the image position within the frame, allowing for quick and intuitive adjustments during the cropping process. However, the recent change has reassigned these keys to switch between Crop and other modes instead. This modification has disrupted a well-established workflow that designers have relied on for efficient image manipulation.The new behavior requires additional steps to accomplish what was previously a straightforward task, as users must now use alternative controls for image positioning. This change not only breaks designers' muscle memory but also adds unnecessary friction to the design process. The impact is particularly noticeable in tasks requiring frequent image adjustments, where the additional clicks and modified inter

I have designed a website in Figma Sites. But after publishing I found that some images are not displayed, only black squares. The problem is only on mobile browsers (Chrome and Safari). In addition, if I minimize and maximize the browser a couple of times, the image will appear, but only the one that was in the visibility zone.There is a feeling that this is a bug, some kind of optimization that should have displayed the image only when viewing.Help me find a solution!Website — joycast.ai.  

The typography is automaticly resized troughout the whole Figma document witouth me doing something. I think this is a veryproblometic. Every font now needs to be edited manually. 

The figmotion plugin doesn`t open, it takes a long time to load ant then it says this:Does anyone know what to do with this? Please tell me

I have been using Figma Make to design my portfolio which was going great. Things I got done - Created a homepage  Added Interactions  Defined a visual design language As I am proceeding to drilled down pages further, I have noticed a few things : The images that were added previously are deleted / replaced by new ones - despite specific instructions to not do it.  Slow speed : I also noticed that the typing speed of prompts slowed down as I proceeded further - cross-checked if it was a computer issue (which it wasn’t)  It’s forgetting things! with every prompt & design updates, it’s now deleting the previous content + pictures :( all the hard work seems to be going in vain and I’m not afraid to touch the project in fear of disrupting the progress so far Can someone help me? Also, what’s the memory capacity of Figma Make? I noticed it was using Calude Sonnet so, assumed it should have been good. Am I missing something here? 

i need help, how do i add new collab seats to existing projects if there’s only “can view” or “can edit” permissions?just turned to collab seat some of the people from my team, but then they can’t access projects and create files.i invited them to projects with “can view” permission but they can’t create files.when i switched them to “can edit”, they can create files, but not only figjam, they can create design files as well. 

I’ve been working on some design presentations in figma that could use short video clips to make them more engaging, but editing those videos has been slowing me down. A teammate mentioned this website which makes editing much easier than the usual heavy tools, but I’m still running into problems like keeping consistent quality and style when mixing video with figma exports.Has anyone here figured out a simple workflow for creating and editing short videos that blend seamlessly into design projects without spending hours on post-production?

I am creating a card component with 2 variables one is the “On” state and the other is the “Off” state. In the card component there are child components “Button” and a “toggle”. In the prototype when toggling back and forth between the On/Off states before selecting any of the buttons there is nothing wrong but, if I select anything then toggle off the state of the buttons stays what it was in the previous state. (photo here to show what’s happening)Does anyone know why this could be happening? Is this a bug? or is it the way that I created my components. I will put in the photos of everything. The only thing so far that I have tried that kept the states was changing the names of the buttons on the “Off” state but if you do that then the text overrides don’t carry over.    

I have a component with three states. The second state has an After Delay interaction to the third state. I also have variables for each state, and a currentState variable that records the current state. I implemented an instance of the component on a frame and set it’s state to my currentState variable, which defaults to the first state. I then added a separate button with an On Click interaction that updates currentState to the second state. This successfully updates my component instance state to the second state, but the After Delay interaction on the second state is not automatically moving the component instance to the third state. I’ve tried refreshing, changing the delay time, and more. Any guidance is appreciated. 

Hello All,I am not able to publish the custom website that I designed in Figma and pasted it in Figma sites.

I am absolutely outraged at how ridiculously incompetent and slow this entire process has been.This is my FIFTH request about a critical file that vanished when a team was deleted. I have spoon-fed you every single detail:File is NOT in Trash.Used the “Created by: anyone” filter — NOTHING.The file contains urgent internship work — deadlines are being destroyed because of YOUR delays.And yet, every single time, you close my ticket as “Solved” without lifting a finger to actually solve anything. Do you seriously think ticking a box ends the problem?This is pathetic support — and I’m done being patient. I want this escalated immediately to someone with the capability and authority to actually recover data.You will:1.⁠ ⁠Recover my deleted team OR2.⁠ ⁠Restore the file to my account (aryanshinde1121q@gmail.com)I am holding you fully accountable for the damage this delay is causing. If this is not resolved TODAY, I will have no choice but to escalate this matter beyond your support desk and m

I am trying to do what seems like a pretty easy task: merging changes in a branch into the main file.Here are my steps:From the branch, I click the dropdown arrow next to the branch name.  Select the option to merge I resolve all conflicts Complete the merge.Expected result:The changes from the branch should appear in the main file.Actual result:They don’t. Nothing happens. Main stays the same, branch stays the same.On top of that, the Figma labeling is confusing. It’s either incorrect/copy errors that are confusing, or I am legitimately not doing this correctly.For example, then the merge modal is up, the title of the modal reads “update from main file.” But that’s not what I’m doing, I selected to do the opposite AND the UI reflects I am doing the opposite: I am “merging branch” not “updating from the main file.” This whole feature feels half baked, and in the meantime, I’m going to abandon it by simple copying all my changes from the branch into the main file, then archive the branc

I feel robbed!! Their new pricing model it’s like robbery! They have designed it to skim us all. I have paying double almost every month since a few month ago because I unintentionally changed the seat or approved a request, and now I need to pay the full month and it’s irreversible. Just because I click on a button now I need to pay $20.This is a bad karma Figma!! THIS IS GREEDY!!

Hello,I have an issue with missing and inaccessible files in my account [email redacted by moderator]. A file named "дизайн бюро" disappeared from my Drafts. Yesterday I worked on it, and today it is gone. I did not delete it myself, and I cannot find it in Recents, Deleted, or any other workspace. Some other files in my account do not open and show a 404 Not Found error (I attached a screenshot). I confirm that that’s not team projects!Could you please help me restore the missing file and fix access to the othersThank you in advance,Olya Korneeva
