When are Figma going to add variables for custom cubic-bezier and durations? We have a design system with a custom library and it’s a real pain adding these to prototypes manually and leads to a bunch of inconsistencies. 

Hello Figma Community,I’m an admin managing a design education program, and I’d like to verify my students for Figma’s Education or Professional access. I want to ensure they receive the proper benefits and workspace permissions under our institution’s account.Could someone please guide me through: The process for verifying student accounts under an institutional domain or admin panel. Whether verification needs to be done individually or can be approved in bulk. Any specific documentation or eligibility criteria required from the admin’s side. I want to streamline onboarding so students can easily collaborate within the professional workspace without manual intervention for each request.Appreciate any insights or official documentation links that could help clarify this process.Thank you,Usama AslamAdmin | UI/UX Design Instructor

Gifford is so far the best gif export plugin I’ve tried however today I keep encountering an issue that I cannot figure out how to fix!! I’m trying to export frames into a gif - they are 1080 x 1920. I select them all and go to export and the gift comes out with thick white edges on either side and it’s actually resizing the image to 800 x 800. I’ve not ever had it resize the image before. The frame are all the right size and the content is clipped. Anyone have this issue and anyone know how to fix it?!

I teach an UiUx course in a spanish university and We are unable to validate a few accounts. please need some help 

I have 2 files, a mockup file and a text strings variables file with 2 modes. I updated the text variables using a plugin (Sheets <> variables) this plugin replaced old values with new ones and kept the same variable names. On the mockup file, previous values were already assigned, Updating the Text librray file (after publishing) is not updating the variables. Although it does show the updated value in both modes (arabic and english) if I reassign the same text string variable manually. Going over the text one by one would be a hassle, is there a solution to reflect the updates directly, I was expecting it would after updating. Thank you

Hi everyone, here’s my situation:I have two Figma accounts, one on the Organization plan and one on the Professional plan, using different emails. I want to transfer (or copy) projects from the Organization account to the Professional account, including the Design System, and keep component links intact.However, when I use “Transfer” option under Settings from the Organization account, the Professional account doesn't receive any in-app notification. When I click “Review Request” from the email, it says “The transfer request you received has been cancelled by the team or organization that sent it. It's no longer available.” Even though no one canceled itAny idea why this happens or the best way to transfer projects to different account that keep all the components intact?

Hi, I’m having trouble uploading specific custom font weights to my Figma Site. My site doesn’t need all of these fonts but, once I started having issues uploading certain font weights, I wanted to test how many were unreadable/incompatible. All of the font weights listed are used in my Figma Site but Figma says it “doesn’t match any font in use” when I go to upload the corresponding woff2 file.  

Some code connect snippets will include imports that do not exist:import com.example.ComponentSomeComposable()The actual code connect file will look like this:package com.exampleimport androidx.compose.runtime.Composableimport com.example.SomeThemeimport com.figma.code.connect.FigmaConnect@FigmaConnect("https://www.figma.com/design/something")private class SomeComposableDoc { @Composable fun Component() { SomeComposable() }}@AlarmPreviews@Composableprivate fun SomePreview() { SomeTheme { SomeComposableDoc().Component() }}It seems that it mistakes the method Component for an import. All of my connected classes use the same name for their composable method. 

I am creating a lo-fi digital prototype in Figma.  All of my connection nodes work in my prototype in preview mode except for the following….”Back” arrow created by using the “line point” tool.  In prototype mode I am able to connect each point to it’s proper page, but when I play my prototype, I get Nothing on every one of the pages that the Arrow is on.  I have tried enlarging the stroke width on the arrow.  deleting the arrows and creating them again.  I am missing something and would appreciate the help.  Thank you...Angel

I’m adding hyperlinks to an editable template in Figma Buzz, and the ‘Mailto:’ function does not seem to work (says invalid link every time). Is there a way around this? I found a plugin to try, but apparently I cannot open the desired plugin within Buzz (fault with Buzz it seems?). ‘Manage plugins’ does nothing in Buzz...

I’m having a problem with the text tool and how it interacts with the rest of my project. Previously, I would be able to hit “T”, click wherever I want the text, hit escape, and that would be it. Now, when I hover the cursor over a rectangle for example, the cursor has a little curve under it, and when I click, the rectangle just disappears. In the layers side bar, it changes the layer name from “Rectangle 2” to “text on a path.”I tried restarting the Figma app, but it’s still doing it. I’m really not sure what I did. How do I get it back to normal? This is the odd cursor in question.​​​​​​ 

Has anyone tried to publish a Figma Buzz template? Personally I have no feedback to the click on "Publish" button on the “Publish your brand template” modal, and I can’t find my template anywhere.Has anyone experienced the same issue?

I work for an org who have disabled Open Sessions- due to confidentiality risk. Is there anyway for the admin to allow a group of users to have this functionality- ie ring fence functionality for only some users?? 

Hi there! I work for a company that owns over 17 different brands with different brand colors. I want to use Figma Buzz to bulk create a visually identical ad for all the brands, but I want the background color to change across each ad to correspond with the unique color of each brand.  My company has used Token Studio to create color tokens for each brand, and these are linked to Figma Variables. Is there any way in Figma Buzz to link a spreadsheet column to color Variables so that when I use Bulk Create it automatically switches to the correct brand color while keeping the token connected?Hope that makes sense! I used have an example screenshot below as a visual of what I would want to happen as well  

I have a navigation bar component with a variant for each product and I want to set the icon for both the default state and the selected state so that they are filled when selected.  I have this set on the parent component but when I try to use it in an instance, it does not have the icon and just shows the default  Here is it set in the parent component when selected  Here is it set when in default  When I insert an instance of the main component and change the icon buttons to a different state, it resets the icon to the default  This navigation bar component is composed of smaller components including this icon button… not sure where the problem lies.  After I set it once in the instance of the main component it works every time I switch it, but it would be nice for my designers not to have to do that every time .

I can’t see beyond a certain point in the Layers panel, the layers seem to be hidden by an invisible limit, which didn’t exist before the new update to the Layers panel. I can’t edit the layers because I can’t see them, and the focus interaction doesn’t work either. 

Hi Everyone, Hope everyone is doing good. Just used Figma make which is awsme. Do any one have idea about the limitation in Figma make prompt. Number of usage. 

Hello Figma Team,I’m a student at the Vocational university Brobygrafiska in Sunne, Sweden (Digital Design, expected graduation 2026). For my coursework, I need to verify my account to the education plan. Unfortunately, my application for this has not been processed, neither from Figma or SheerId.Here’s what happened: I entered all my details correctly (school, program, dates, etc.). SheerID didn’t respond. I tried multiple times to provide documents (Student ID, enrollment confirmation) but was not able to, I only received an error message.  I have reached out to Figma support, but every time I only get the same response: “Please contact SheerID.” I did so but didn't receive an answer. What am I supposed to do if SheerID does not reply and simply ignores my requests?   I need to receive an education plan in order to complete my studies.What should I do to resolve this issue? Thanks in advance!

Hello Figma team!I hope you are well. A few days ago I encountered that the function of adding min/max height and width when using auto-layout is not available, It appears but it doesn’t give a chance to edit the values, I don’t know if it is an issue with my PC or if it’s the app. Thank you in advance.

When placing a text layer inside a frame (without any fill, stroke, or effect), Figma shows an unexpected additional color (usually black) in the “Selection Colors” panel.This happens even if the text is styled correctly using a color variable, and there are no other visible color sources. The color cannot be selected, changed, or removed. Adding a transparent fill just adds another color to the list. The issue appears consistently as soon as a text layer is placed inside any frame. This seems to be a misleading behavior in the Selection Colors panel, as the color is not visually present or technically applied to any element. Any takes on this?

I saw this topic raised in the past. Wanted to surface it again because this continues to be an issue for me now and has been throughout the years I’ve been using Figma. Comments do not get copied over when duplicating a file or when exporting a .fig file. Has anyone found a workaround for this? @Figma_Support Is an update for this issue coming our way in the future?

can someone help me？ thanks a lot!

Hi,I would like to move a Figma Make project from my current account to a new Figma account, it is possible to export and import a project ?

Hi Figma,In my main design system, currently i have these 4 collection. But after renaming a collection from 'Semantic (Device)' to 'Device-Type (S)' in the main design system file, now I can see both collection names in the working file. I requested for a help from figma support team, unfortunately the options they said not worked.
