Hi guys, I am really really frustrated by a problem with prototype view, I’ve made an interactive component with hover, pressed and active states, I’ve converted the different rectangles representing different ratios into components and then added one of the instances (16:9) into the actual interactive component to swap them later, but when I am switching the color of active states in other instances, only the text label gets changed, even tho I have properly named everything.P.S: I’ve made lots of components earlier and never had this problem, if someone could explain me, it would be great

Everything look alike and the position of the UI keeps on changing. It’s been a few weeks trying the new UI and I’m so much slower and inefficient with this new layout. I used to believe Figma would be my long term tool, but now I’m not so sure about that. 

Figma Beta app is not installing in windows 11 pc. 

How can I view Figma prototypes on my mobile, or is that currently only for web desktop?When I copy the share link and open in on my mobile, it opens up in a very small view and completely unusable on phone.

I’m designing a multilingual website using Figma Sites and I’ve set up string variables with multiple modes (for example, en and de) to enable language switching. However, when I try to use the “Set variable mode” interaction in the prototype settings (under the “Add interaction” panel), this option is not appearing or is unavailable in the list.I've followed the steps to create a variable collection with multiple modes and applied the string variables correctly to my text layers. I'm also on Professional plan, and I believe my plan supports at least two modes.Could you please let me know: Why the “Set variable mode” interaction is not showing up? Are there any plan limitations or conditions under which this interaction becomes available in Figma Sites? Is there something I might be missing in setup or publishing workflow? Looking forward to your assistance to resolve this issue.

Здравствуйте! Столкнулась с проблемой при работе с компонентами. Когда нажимаю на «Создать компонент»: на холсте появляется рядом с названием 4 заполненных ромба как мастер набор, а в панели Layers показывается 4 пустых ромба как копии. Если создаю копию инстанса и жму на «подняться к родителю», меня возвращает к тому же фрейму с 4 пустыми ромбами (копиями). Получаю расхождение статуса между холстом и Layers. Из-за этого недоступны обычные функции для «мастера»: Detach/Отсоединить экземпляр и Swap/Замена и т. д. Скриншот приложила. Подскажите пожалуйста, как исправить?Что уже пробовала:Перезапуск приложения и файла. Разгруппировать → снова «Создать новый компонент». Копировать в новый файл. Проверить, не объединены ли объекты в набор/варианты.

Hi Dear Figma Support Team,
I accidentally reset and restarted Figma. After that, all of my files and drafts are missing. These files are very important. I’ve checked my Drafts, Recent files, Deleted items, and made sure I’m logged into the correct account, but I still can't find anything.
I need urgent help. I accidentally reset and restarted Figma, and now all my files and drafts are missing from my account.I have already checked: My Drafts Recent Files Deleted Items That I'm logged into the correct account Unfortunately, I still cannot find any of my work.

Hi, I accidentally clicked to create a new team and then got stuck on the “Add team members” page. Neither “Skip for now” nor the close button in the upper right works to leave this page. I’ve tried logging out, restarting the app, and even reinstalling it, but every time I open Figma, I’m still stuck on this page and can’t close it to go back to the homepage. The web version works fine. How can I resolve this?  

 I created a prototype using Figma Make and saved it both as a file with the .make extension and as code in a .zip file. After that, I started a new project, but it didn’t work out, so now I want to return to my previous project. How can I restore my earlier project from these files?I am asking the question here since I was waiting for sale team to call me for over 10 days and they don't bother to contact me. This is first time it my life to meet a company which has great product and miserable sales department. Usually it works in opposite LOL 

Hi everyone,I'm currently taking over a large Figma project from another company, and I’ve run into a major issue with component linking. I’ll try to explain as clearly as possible:The previous team provided me with several Figma files: A working file A library file (which includes the UI kit, components, ...) A color styles file An icon file I uploaded all of these files into my company’s Figma workspace. Then I published the three system files (library, color styles, icons) so they act as design system libraries.After that, I opened the working file and added all three published libraries to it. The problem is: none of the components in the working file are connected to the published library. They appear as external components but not linked. Manually linking works correclty, but this project has over 100+ pages, so manually relinking everything isn’t realistic.My questions are: Am I missing a key step in the import or publishing process? Is there a way to get the working fil

Hello, I am a researcher of laboratory in a university in South Korea.I want to use Figma for research project what i’m participating now.When I clicked GET VERIFIED of educational plan, forms asked me like below : Are you a STUDENT/EDUCATOR/ADMIN? Why do you apply educational plan of figma? What is your school name? What is your main lecture about? Upload your lecture syllabus and urlI couldn’t answer question 1, 4, and 5. So I want to ask if researcher of lab in univ can apply and get free figma education plan.(My University is in list when I clicked question 3) Thank you for reading.

Hey Figma folks, I'm just curious if you guys had had a chance to look at this.  I really really like the application I was able to build out using prompts, but now I can't get it out of Figma. I'm  a back in developer who is learning to use front end tools through your awesome product, and seems like the absolute most important possible capability is not an option. I was genuinely shocked to read that you could not do this and I can't understand why.

Ciao,When you set a frame size (e.g. A4 sheet - 21x29.7cm) and set the resolution to 300dpi, when I go to export the PDF, the file is not the size of an A4... This is absolutely not correct. The file size should always be the same, but with different resolutions.Fix as soon as possible, Thank you.

"How can I fix the issue where pressing the shortcut to increase font size in Figma creates a code block instead?"

I'm using Dev Mode in a paid Figma workspace, and I noticed that "Compare changes" only appears for certain frames or components. Some of them don’t show this option at all.I’ve noticed that it only appears for frames that were edited in the last 7 days — is that true?Are there any official rules or limitations for when the "Compare changes" button shows up?Would appreciate any clarification. Thanks!

Apologies if this is simple or has been asked before but I can’t find a solution. I have a component that needs to have a fixed width but the height can vary depending on the ratio of the image at the top of the component. I need the ability for the image to keep the fixed width but adjust the height in proportion to the files ratio. No matter what I do the image container never seems to adjust and there isn’t a hug option on the image. This means if I select a landscape image instead of pulling all the content up the image frame stays the same size with the image flowing in the middle. Figma – 22 Mar 24

how do I set spacing mode to a frame, I cannot find this setting in the advanced settings section

I work with 2 co-workers, one (like me) focuses on UX Design, the other is in charge of the design system and token files. When doing some file clean up I discovered in the token Figma file, I had 200+ changes to Publish. The other UX designer showed that as well. The coworker in charge of the token files showed no changes to Publish, and nothing to update. We all then checked our version history and they are the same time and date.Any idea what could have caused this or how to fix it? We are using a company account, and I believe we all have the same editing credentials. Not sure what other variables would cause this misalignment in the same file.

Hello everyone.Managing a mobile workforce presents unique challenges, especially in design and development. I'm curious how others are leveraging Figma to streamline collaboration and maintain productivity among remote or mobile teams.Specifically, how are you using Figma's features to facilitate real-time feedback, version control, and seamless handoffs between design and development? Are there any integrations or workflows you've found particularly effective for mobile workforce management within Figma?I'd appreciate any insights or strategies that have worked well for your teams.

Hi all, I’ve had a look but I’ve not been able to find a shortcut for swapping the direction of an autolayout frame between vertical and horizontal? Is there one?

Pretty simple.  They are individual prototype actions, proto actions are triggered sequentially, there’s no reason not to be able to combine them except for the fact that Figma “has decided you can’t do that.”Use case: I have an overlay menu. User clicks to open overlay menu, which has links to overlay views.  User clicks menu option to open overlay, I need to close the original menu overlay and open the new overlay.In a normal world I would just add both prototype actions and put them in the necessary order; close for the menu overlay first, then open overlay for the new panel.  Unfortunately “not possible ace”.This is silly and makes no sense.  Either provide a combined control (if you feel it’s needed) or just let us assign the necessary actions and put them in the order to effectively execute.-rt

Hi Figma team, I’ve noticed a few earlier posts regarding support for the latest version of the Inter typeface have been closed without resolution, so I wanted to reopen the conversation.Currently, Figma supports Inter 3.0, but Inter 4.0 introduces important enhancements—most notably the tabular numbers (tabnums) feature, which is particularly valuable when designing financial software and data-heavy interfaces.Would you be able to share if there are any plans to update the supported version of Inter in Figma? For reference, I’ve reattached the image that compares Inter 3.0 and 4.0, originally provided in a previous post. Appreciate any updates or context you can provide!Thanks so much,  

Hi Figma Support,I was collaborating on a file named "Prisoner App" (link below). I accidentally removed the person who originally owned the file, not realizing they were the owner.Now, the file is no longer visible to either of us — it doesn't appear in Trash, Drafts, or Projects, and we can't access it via the link.Here’s the file link:👉 https://www.figma.com/design/0pkPgS35mEJHzMnhZNWagr/Prisoner-App?node-id=0-1
