Is there a way to use a design (a particular frame) but as a sort of a synced ghost of it, for a prototype?

What I mean is, I create frames, blah blah and then, instead of linking them here and now, is there a way to somehow create a synced copy/mirror of those frames in some other place so if you create connections, it uses objects from the design but on this copy - mirror? And it would update live, of course if you remove an object, the connection goes away. One idea is to create a component out of the whole frame and just instance it… but I feel this is not the right way. Has anyone ever thought about his too?

Page jumping around when component has auto layout and smart animate applied

Hi, The bug i am experience on the regular is when pages in prototype view jump around when component has auto layout and smart animate applied. I know this is a bug that has been discussed many times on here and has been around for years at this point along with other prototyping bugs. Which is why I wanted to ask why this has not been fixed, it is very frustrating when we get all this amazing updates with great new features but bugs that affect peoples work everyday don’t seem to get any attention. Hope prototyping can get a big revamp soon as we have great tools to build with but can often fall short when it comes to prototyping and presenting to clients.

do not hide rulers when sidebars are hidden

мне удобно выравнивать элементы по линейке, иногда мне нужно смотреть на дизайн 1 к 1, без боковых панелей, тогда я нажимаю ctrl + . Однако Очень часто мне нужно видеть линейки, когда боковые панели скрыты. Но линейки скрываются вместе с панелями

In prototype mode scroll bar animation is not responding

Hi everyone, I’m working on a scroll triggered animation for a landing page, where the frame (containing video) in the hero section increases in size and takes up entire space when the scroll bar is dragged. While i was practicing this animation it worked, but when i added this ‘hero section’ frame in my main ‘landing page’ frame and then checked in prototyping mode, the scroll bar does not respond. Can anyone help with this ? Thanks! Dilyse.

[Prototytping] Responsive mode doesn't stay centered

Hi everyone ! I hope everybody’s well. Here’s my subject : i’m working on a “bento design” and i have an issue with my prototype : when i play it for the first time, the navigation keep resizing the screen in the top left corner before getting back to normal (which make the experience nauseous and feeling bugged). BUT once he did this little glitch everything works fine. to give you a bit more info, i’m using a component and 2 interactions in this order : Change to > changing the dot Navigate to > to change the content of screen And the 1st frame inside the main ones : are always named the same are in fill with a min and max width i used exactly the same method for the menu and it’s working just fine I tried to change the order but it doesn’t help and it just delete my dot animation… Anyone already had this problem ? Anyway to fix it ? Thank you all ! Have a nice day

[Jira integration] Jira ticket no longer automatically loaded into "Dev Resources" when design is linked in ticket

Previously, when I add a Figma wireframe to a jira ticket via “Add design” button, the jira ticket would automatically appear in “Dev resources”. It seems to no longer do that. Is it a bug? it would be great to get that back as it saves a lot of time and energy, it really adds up.

How to backup/export/download all Figma files?

As part of our organisation roadmap, we need our organisation data to be backed up in our inhouse server at a regular interval. We are working to take the backup of Figma files along with respective projects. We have explored the Figma API documentation (https://www.figma.com/developers/api#get-files-endpoint), where we need to manually add the file key in the api (GET/v1/files/:key), which is not ideal solution and even after adding the key, we are getting response in json format, not the file. Could you please suggest a way how we can take incremental backup of Figma files along with respective projects? Is there any option available to Export/Download all of our Figma files?

Code snippet editor

I downloaded code snippet editor and wrote the code snippet for component set. It did propagate correctly to the component instances in the same project, however when I open a component instance in another project, it says no snippet available. My design system project is published and shared with other projects.

Variables User Update?

Is there going to be a company update on variables any time soon, we are desperately lacking some ux features and improvements? (its still feels like its beta) I keep checking release notes daily for any sign of quality of life improvement in this area (does anyone else feel like this whole area is being ignored?). I see new products coming online like code connect & slides etc, meanwhile I think there are a lot of medium sized orgs with designers in the trenches that probably wont take advantage of these things but could definitely take advantage of some variables QOL improvements.

Has anyone else experienced something similar? I searched the forum but couldn’t find any posts about this issue. this is normal this is group this is auto layout

"AI features aren't available" because "you're not a member" of your organization

I’m a part of a large (~2,000-member) enterprise license in Figma. I was just added to Figma’s UI3 and AI beta, and I’m receiving this message when I open the Actions panel saying I’m “not a member” of my organization and therefore cannot access AI features. It isn’t saying the organization has disabled AI features, but that I’m not a part of the organization at all (which I definitely am). I double-checked my account info, and I’m 100% a part of the organization with full design seat access. Oddly enough, Figma Slides’ “Adjust tone” AI feature is accessible to me, but no AI features are available in my design files.

Prototype mode - fit screen height?

I have a wide design (horizontal scrolling) so I’m trying to get my prototype to automatically fill the browser window height, but the only options Figma gives me are to “fit width” or “fill screen”… both of which shows the entire long design, which makes the content too small. Is there no option to fit height, to allow horizontal scrolling?

Boolean Bug

I don’t know if there’s a bug or if I’m just being stupid, but I’ve created some components to act as buttons. The components are: Email and Password, both of which have variants (default state, hover, and pressed). When the user hovers over a button, it changes its state from default to hover (adds a shadow), and when the user clicks on the button, it changes the state from hover to pressed (adds an inner shadow). It also changes their value from false to true (this value ONLY CHANGES if the user clicks on the button). I did this on the Log In screen and added a condition to check if the values for Email and Password are true. If they are, then it proceeds to the HOME screen; if not, an overlay pops up with a message. For some reason, this works halfway: sometimes it works fine, and other times I have to reset the prototype. Anyway, I’ve added THE EXACT SAME LOGIC to other components that I created from scratch, and they just won’t work. They are literally the same type of buttons but
