Hey,I just found through this video https://youtu.be/GbfUHfCocIY?t=802 that’s possible to change images by changing variable modes. At some point in the video (minute 18:17) we can see a string variable “Team ID” which is probably what he’s using in the images properties. But we don’t manage to see how he’s applying it.First of, I can only apply the variable to an instance, not the actual component. I tried to do that and then from that instance create a new component, it does seem over engineered, but it does work. However I have an issue where if I change the mode once, it works, but if I try to change again it doesn’t work.So I’m not sure what would be the right way to replicate what’s in the video.Any thoughts?

Hi everyone,I’m trying to improve my gameplay experience in GTA Mobile. What are the best control settings, sensitivity options, and graphics settings for smooth performance and better aiming?

I’m posting here as I’ve been unable to get a response from Figma Support and am hoping someone from the team or the community can help. I am a Student on a Masters program and I’m experiencing an issue with the Figma Education verification process. SheerID has confirmed that my account was successfully verified on 9 September 2025, but I’m now unable to reapply or reset the verification due to a 335-day approval limit, which SheerID has stated is set and controlled by Figma. SheerID has made it clear that they cannot reset or override this restriction and has repeatedly directed me back to Figma. However, despite contacting Figma Support, I’ve yet to receive a response. At this point, I feel like I’m being passed back and forth between Figma and SheerID without any clear resolution. I’m honestly quite disappointed with the lack of communication and the slow response time from Figma, especially as this directly affects access to an education

I’ve designed a table with about 15 rows, each with 10 columns for a SaaS product I’m working on. Each row was created from an instance of a component. I’d like to change all of the data in the table so there’s some variance between each row/column so it’s more realistic. I tried using the Replace Content and Rewrite This AI tools by selecting the rows in the table and asking it to change the data so there’s more difference in the numbers (amounts and $$) in each row, but it just updates the first row with new data and then uses that same data in the rest of the rows. Could it have something to do with each row being an instance of a component? I’ve used the Replace Content and Rewrite This Ai tools other times, with some success, but in this case it’s having trouble.  Let me know if there’s a different tool or better prompt to use. 

Hi,I’m using Figma Make and I keep getting this error:“Failed to download code files. Check errors and try again.”The preview is generated successfully, but when I click Download code, it fails.Has anyone encountered this issue before?What are the common causes and how can I fix it? 

I am a student at a higher education institution and I have been issued an official school email address by my university.Unfortunately, my university does not provide students with direct login credentials (password or external SSO access) for this email address. Access to the mailbox is only possible through the internal university system (Outlook / extranet), and it is not possible to log in to third-party services using this email account.Because of this limitation, I am unable to sign in to Figma using my school email address, even though I am eligible for the Figma Education plan.I would like to ask if there is any alternative way to verify my student status (for example, by providing proof of enrollment or a student certificate), or if there is any workaround in this situation.

I’m currently working with the Figma API and trying to retrieve data from a specific branch within my file. While I’ve identified the branch ID from the URL (e.g., https://www.figma.com/design//branch//...), I haven’t found any documentation indicating how to dynamically call or access branches using the API.Here are my questions:Is it possible to query a list of available branches or fetch branch-specific details using the Figma API?How can the branch_id parameter be utilized correctly in API requests, and are there any specific configurations required to access branches?Are there limitations or additional permissions needed to retrieve branch-specific content?For reference, I’m trying to execute the following API call with the branch_id parameter:

I’ve tried every single link to get Sales to contact me regarding a purchase and nothing is working.

Ok so I know theres loads of topics on this - but Im not sure I’ve seen one mention components, hence the new convo. TL;DR - I have a card containing 2 columns. I want the card to have column 1 smaller than the other. So Column 1 would be say, 25% the width of the card and column 2 would be 75% Now I see a lot of replies about setting fixed widths for column 1, fill for column 2…. about setting constraints etc, but this does not work, especially when working in components.  My card component has the variables of 1 or 2 columns, and of course - can be used in various screens, places, layouts and screen sizes. The card works beautifully when the columns are 50/50 scaling to my screen size, but just do not work at all for other width needs. Whats more, when I have my component, there is no way to override the widths of my internal columns unless I detach the component - breaking my whole system, and negating the whole point of components. Seriously s

I have been experiencing unusual behavior in Figma for several days. When I use Spacebar + mouse to pan, the canvas moves unpredictably in different directions while the spacebar is pressed. Refreshing Figma temporarily resolves the issue, but the glitch reoccurs frequently. I am using Figma Web.

 I’m trying to make a table with these parameters:4 columns Individual cells in columns 1–3 (like “expected shipment date”, expected delivery date”...) The table has to stretch horizontally proportionally with content always staying in its columns Columns 1–3 are grouped with the borderI don’t see how this is achievable in an adequate way. The way I did it now is having a second table underneath just for borders for columns 1–3 (“table 2” layer). With one layer it’s only possible to:Sacrifice grouping columns 1–3, then each cell will have it’s own border. Sacrifice stretching, then you can just adjust the cell’s border. Group columns 1–3 and use auto-stretching auto layout inside, but columns won’t stretch proportionally.Do you see any way to achieve that?

Hey all, I’m just getting round to investigating the native variable export options and have a question relating to $extensions .How relevant is this information outside of the Figma ecosystem? If I was to export this and add this to my GitHub Repository, should this just be something that I remove, and if so is there a way to exclude this from the export at all?If I understand correctly, that information is possibly only meant for importing into another file, but I just wanted to validate that assumption before hand.Some example code below to illustrate:"green": { "500": { "100A": { "$type": "color", "$value": { "colorSpace": "srgb", "components": [ 0.13333334028720856, 0.5254902243614197, 0.3960784375667572 ],

I have a row of pictures moving in infinite marquee effect on my website. Every picture is linked to a page on the same website, and it goes with a text link that leads to the same page, so both picture and text provide the users with an opportunity to click. However, when the marquee cycle is complete, both pic and text links stop working. Refreshing the page works well since it starts the cycle again, but I’d doubt that my users deserve this kind of UX. Is there a way to keep the links functional? Am I missing something?

Hi, I’ve noticed an issue with changing the font family in the variables modal. The font does not update across all pages and components automatically. The font can be changed to the correct family when double clicking on a text box. Cheers, Sanny

I have an enterprise subscription, and I am trying to apply variable modes (already created in the Variables menu) to an object. However, I don’t have an icon for ‘local variables’ in the Appearance palette. My object is selected, but I only have the ‘hide’ and ‘apply blend mode’ icons, plus ‘opacity’ and ‘corner radius’ as the other field options. ...What am I doing wrong?

We are currently not using variable modes, because our developers don’t get a clear enough inspection experience in Dev Mode.I would like to ask all of you 2 things:1. Do you know a solution that makes variable modes more explicit in Dev Mode?2. Can anyone please share how the new extended collections feature looks like when inspecting in Dev Mode? I want to know if it gives the developers a better experience there…Thank you in advance :)

I’ve created a simple CMS collection and added a CMS list to my site’s homepage. When clicking into either of the CMS items (labeled case studies), the page loads but none of the CMS content. I have to manually refresh the page and only then content loads. When I inspect the page, the content is there, it’s just not being displayed.Furthermore when a user is on a CMS item page, and attempts to click the logo in the nav bar to access the homepage, the CMS list that loads only displays a single item listing (which doesn't retain styling , nor imagery). Can someone help figure out how to resolve?

Hi Figma community,I'm Kenta Konaka, a product designer/developer based in Japan.I've been using the Claude Code to Figma integration to capture and import designs, but I've noticed that Japanese characters are not rendered correctly.— they either appear as blank spaces, placeholder boxes (tofu), or are completely missing from the captured output.Steps to reproduce1. Use the `generate_figma_design` tool via Claude Code with Figma MCP2. Capture the target design containing Japanese text3. The design is generated into a Figma file4. Japanese characters are not visually rendered in Figma, even though the text data exists in the layersExpected behaviorJapanese text should be captured and displayed correctly, just like Latin characters.Actual behaviorJapanese characters are not visually displayed in the generated Figma f

I’ve noticed uncomfortable lags when I share my screen via MS Teams and present something in Figma Desktop. It feels like fps drops drastically - from 60 to around 15-20. Mouse hover feedbacks with a noticeable delay. These lags I started notice after updating to macOS Sequoia. My setup: Macbook Pro 2021 M1 Pro with 32GB RAM, macOS Sequoia 15.0 External monitor HP Z27 connected via usb-c thunderbolt Figma Desktop 124.4.7 MS Teams for mac Version 24244.507.3125.3475 I started investigating to identify the root cause and so far I figured out the next: The issue is only with Figma Desktop and MS Teams mac app. If I use Figma in browser or MS Teams in browser, everything is smooth. The issue is more noticeable with UI3. When I switch back to previous UI, it works much smoother, however not perfect and smooth as without sharing. When I share the internal Macbook screen the issue is less to not not

When exporting as PNG or JPG, only the base layer of my frame exports, even though all of the missing elements are in the frame and visible. I have to individually export frame by frame instead of batch exporting all frames on a page as I usually do.
