Figma REST get images only returns one image URL

Hello, I am using the Figma REST API to get images with a URL like so: https://api.figma.com/v1/images/[file_id]?ids=[frameID1,frameID2,frameID3, etc.], but the response only contains 1 image URL. How can I get 1 URL for each frame i passed in ids? Looks like a similar issue here but it went dead: Not getting frame images separately

Video Preview Not working

When adding a video to a frame in Figma you used to be able to scrub along the video and select a frame as the preview frame. This feature no longer seems to work. Any thoughts?

Statistcs of figma file not the library

Can I view the statistics for my published UX templates file that utilizes design system libraries? Specifically, Figma supports statistics for libraries, but if I use a regular Figma file - UX patterns created for the design system community to use, is it possible to track how many people are using each screens and and obtain related metrics?

What is this 'border' on the instance icon and how do I get rid of it?

It is making these particular frames behave differently from the rest. Also please update the View layers and pages in the left sidebar page. Many new symbols have been added and not everyone can keep up with them.

Using variables prevents updating at zeroheight

After updating the library with the variables, the integration with zeroheight stopped working. We contacted zeroheight and they reported to us that it is a Figma bug due to the use of variables. Does anyone know anything about the subject? someone with the same problem? Is there a prediction for correction?

Node Id is not unique

The docs say: Every node has an id property, which is unique within the document. If the id is invalid, or the node cannot be found (e.g. removed), returns null. figma | Plugin API But I’ve found as I’m developing my plugin that this is not true. When you alt drag a layer, the children within it have ids that are not unique. Is there a workaround?

This is a major thing that I am unaware of and would like to know

In a Figma prototype, meaning the completed app, when you reopen the app, I’m pretty sure it will start again from the login screen instead of being in the part of the app which I was in when previously closed. So how to make it so that whichever part of the app is closed, it should open on that same part upon opening?

Сложность с компонентами и инстансами

В компонент Б (вариант строки чекбокса) вложен инстанс компонента А (логотип платежной системы). Когда в компоненте Б меняю свойство инстанса компонента А (напр, вместо того Visa хочу поставить МИР) - все отлично, размер инстанса А меняется (т е того Visa было 50 икс по ширине, заменилось на кого МИР 60 икс в ширину). Когда те же манипуляции проделываю уже с инстансом компонента Б (строкой чекбокса), то размер инстанса компонента А (лого) фиксируется и при смене его свойства, новый логотип вписывается в размер существующего. Как это поправить?

User Story Card Template

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can help out or point me in the right direction to answer something. Im creating User Story cards and combining this with the MOSCOW method so I have 4 cards: Must have Should have Could have Will not have Cards 1-3 will have: As a … I want to… So that… Rather than using a Miro board we want to be able to use Figma so collaborators and add as many of the cards they want and edit the content above with what they want. I have added placeholder text which will be the editable parts, and used Auto Layout to tidy it all up. My issue is that when someone adds more content to an area than is already there, it overlaps the boundary of the coloured background or overlaps the content above it. Is there a way using autolayout to allow for the separate content boxes to move/size according to the content within it. Like a traditional in html. Any tips and tricks would be great! Thanks Chris

Color Styles (bound to variables) in Paragraph with Multiple Text Styles Display in Wrong Mode

I’m experiencing an issue when updating designs after publishing my Color Library with styles now bound to new variables I made to enable theming. Specifically with paragraphs that include multiple text styles the default mode of the variable is shown instead of the parent frame mode. This is only the case when using color styles (bound to variables) in a paragraph with multiple text styles (like text and hyperlink styles). I’ve found if I break the color style and directly use the variable then the correct mode of the variable is displayed in the same paragraph with multiple text styles. Here is some screenshots showing the issue and alternative.

Can we inject custom code in figma prototype

Can we inject custom code in Figma prototype? We are using a Figma prototype to users through a product demo on our website. The prototype opens up in an iframe but there’s additional padding around it which we are not being able to get rid off. Hence wanted to understand if we could inject custom code to the Figma prototype to solve for the padding issue

Group Assets

Hi community, Is it possible to group the components from the Assets tab in Figma. I recently found out that the plugin Pagger only groups the pages I’ve created inside the Layers tab. So I wonder, is there any plugin to make this possible where I can group the pages and that it will be pushed trough the Assets tab as well?. Thanks in advance, Nasséra

The local variables editor is in the "Can view" mode

Hello guys, I’m looking for a solution on how my potential clients can preview the design in the “can view” mode and have options to edit the local variables. The goal is to send customers a Figma board in “can view” mode before they consider using my product. This way, they can try customizing the product themselves. The board will have local variables available, such as colors and number values. Is there any solution that achieves these results? Thank you
