Is it just me or are the text search buttons in FigJam (when searching via Ctrl+ F shortcut) behaving exactly the opposite way from what to expect?To illustrate, this screenshot shows what I am referring to:When clicking on the “down” chevron, I’d expect to go to the next search result (3 of 57). Instead, what happens is FigJam jumps back to the first search result (1 of 57).Likewise, when clicking the “up” chevron, I’d expect to get to the previous search result - instead, FigJam navigates to the subsequent one. I cannot see how this would make sense, as intuitively, I would associate a downward pointing chevron button with “next” and an upward pointing chevron with “previous”.It seems to be a bug - please fix!

Hello!My team is working in Dev Mode, and we have noticed that measurements and annotations occasionally can’t be deleted. The measurements are only removed after reopening the file.Is there a known fix or workaround for this issue?

I’m wanting to go live on my site, but before I do, I thought it would be a good idea to add some analytics to watch what happens. I’m new to doing this, but after doing some research it seems like I can easily include a line of code into the beginning of the code of my website. I don’t see where to do that in Figma Sites…. there’s apparently no Dev Mode. Is this right?

For example, im trying to attach arrow to the right side of a picture and the arrow refuses to stick to that side. It forces me to attach to other optionsThe snapping options change if i zoom out or in

I recently, or better, had since a year of trying to fix it, the issue that any font i downloaded did not work. (Exept for the sega logo font, which isnt on my pc.) draging in the file does nothing. Restarting, reinstalling everythinf including fonts and the desktop program / font-into-figma-shover in various ways, downloading diffrent fonts did not work, manualy installing fonts did not work, and yes, i did restart, shutdown and start, and updated figma in a year. So, since i now KNOW that the problem is not coming with a clean instalation of figma and is not caused by me. i recently also found out that a bot answers the questions after that by leading to a help article that explains you how to install fonts, not troubleshoot, just installing. the troubleshooting page for the issue that has been “solved” and the answer pointing this page out was “most helpful” (figma closed the thread by sending the user to an irrelevant page) was about Adobe fonts not showing up. i have the same issu

Hi, I don’t find the auto layout settings anymore, someone knows how to get it back please ?  

Both Figma library and site files are in the same project but can’t see the library I’ve just published as an available library to be connected in my site file.

When exporting Frames (that include text) to .pptx, the background or decorative shapes—such as rounded rectangles or masks—are often missing in the exported file, leaving only the text.This results in a significant loss of visual fidelity and breaks the intended layout.I strongly suggest that, at minimum, the entire Frame should be exported as a PNG image to preserve its original appearance.This issue has caused major difficulties when using Figma to design presentation slides, and I hope it can be addressed or improved soon.

Hey Figma Heads!I’ve noticed that some of my icons have holes in the circles where they’re not supposed to (e.g., in images). Does anyone know how to fix this issue while keeping everything in a single vector and maintaining a consistent stroke size?It seems like the problem might be caused by the stroke breaking into negative space when overlapping itself.The last image shows what it’s supposed to look like. Any help would be greatly appreciated! How the icon is suppose to look like 

Hi, recently I encountered very weird glitch while prototyping in Figma. I did simple drop down menu animation but for some reason it looks glitchy (pls see video). You can clearly see the drop down menu section itself all move by one pixel or something when clicked. And the bigger problem is the price slider also move! The slider has no animation at all, and it’s not connected to the drop down menu at all!Anyone know what might be the problem here? I tried to clear figma cache but it didn’t help.Thank you very much. 

Hello! I'm developing a plugin to switch between color modes (light/dark) for multiple collections at once, and I'm facing some challenges. I have several collections that control different aspects of the light/dark mode theming, and I need to apply or switch all of them simultaneously on selected frames (or the whole page if possible). Here's what I've tried so far:First Approach - setVariableModesAsyncTried using the setVariableModesAsync method to apply modes The code correctly identified collections and their modes Issue: Changes weren't applied visually, although logs indicated successSecond Approach - setBoundVariableForPaintSwitched to using setBoundVariableForPaint for specific colors Tried processing each variable individually Issue: Received errors related to paint type and properties not foundThird Approach - setVariableModeForCollectionAsyncBased on the latest documentation (Update 83), changed to use setVariableModeForCollectionAsync. Implemented logic to:Identify only COL

Hi everyone! I accidentally deleted all my drafts and slides while deleting team projects (all of it happened because of ChatGPT that’s said my drafts will not be deleted while deleting team projects and they will always appear in my personal files). Though the worst of all is I can’t restore any of them, they simply don’t appear there, it’s empty, how I get back my projects?

Hi! I am new to Figma and trying to make a drop down menu. I made a test frame, put the asset in it and presented it to try it out, There is a blank screen. What did I do wrong/how can I fix it?   

Hi everyone, I’ve noticed something over the past few weeks that feels like a UX regression, and possibly even a bug.Before, when working with elements like a button frame, I could add properties like Fill, Stroke, and others by clicking anywhere in the gray area of that section on the right panel. I didn’t have to aim precisely at the small + button or the label. It felt smooth and natural, and helped me move quickly.Recently, that behavior changed. Now, I have to click directly on the + button or the property label. Clicking the gray area does nothing. It may seem like a small thing, but over time it creates micro-friction. When you add that up across many interactions, and for many users, it becomes a noticeable slowdown.One reason I think this might be a bug is because the Export section still works the old way. If you click the middle gray area there, it triggers the export action. That inconsistency makes me think the change in behavior might not be intentional.If this is just a

Hey everyone!I’ve been working on a small side project at macropad.io to help speed up repetitive tasks in Figma. We designed a 16-key macropad with custom keycaps printed with Figma shortcuts — like "Frame Selection," "Group," "Detach Instance," etc. Basically, it’s like a physical layer of shortcut buttons.The idea is to make your workspace more efficient without memorizing every key combo or relying on muscle memory.Here’s a preview of the keycaps we madeWould love to hear your thoughts: Would something like this be helpful in your workflow? Am i missing out important shortcuts? Thanks in advance — genuinely curious how other designers approach shortcut tools like this!

Hi everyone,Previously in Figma, I could select multiple parent layers (e.g. instances with the same structure), press Enter, and then Tab through their child layers in sync. This was extremely useful for making consistent edits across similar components or groups.However, I’ve noticed that this behavior has changed recently. Now, when I select multiple layers and press Tab, it only highlights the first selected layer instead of allowing me to tab through the children of all selected layers simultaneously.Has this feature been removed or changed?Is there a new shortcut or setting I need to enable to restore the previous behavior?Any help or workaround would be greatly appreciated!

Hello awesome Figma makers, I’ve just upgraded to a pro account with full seat, but do not see the AI option in both iOS app and browser.  In browser, there is an icon which looks like AI, but it seems to be a menu navigator only. I’ve also enabled AI in the admin settings.  thank you 

I’m not able to select into the text layer to make text edits. I’ve read previous discussions from a few years where people have experienced the same thing. It might have to do with the mouse tracking speed change, but I tried adjusting that as well. Would anyone have updated solutions? Thanks!

Double-clicking a text layer won’t let me edit it. The layer is not locked. This issue seemed to be resolved in past for other users, but the solution has not been mentioned in the thread. I am first time coming across this issue. Please guide.

Yesterday I was bugged 3 times with a captcha task!Every 2-3 hours, today morning - the same. Is Figma out of their minds?WTF?Anyone else has had this idiocy? And it’s an organization account!!!!

Material theme builder version 20, released in May 2024, is not operational. The plugin generates theme colours but does not update them in any project files other than the original kit project. This means that if you had any work using Material 3 kit, you are not able to update the theme since May 2024. It is not possible to do any theme-related M3 work with a custom theme since May 2024. Themes in any project that people had done in Material3 UI Kit cannot be updated anymore since May 2024. There is no other Material theme builder plugin. We are hostages of the situation. There are tens, if not hundreds, of reports on the M3 DK page and on the Theme Builder itself page where it has been ignored since early 2024. It appears that version 20 of the plugin was released untested, and the development team was immediately reassigned or disbanded. Nobody from the Material team reads bug reports; nobody responds. Figma announced the category of UI kits but did nothing else; nobody tests anyt

Is there a direct phone number where someone will actually answer?

👋 Hi community – first post.I was able to quickly make myself a working prototype of an idea with great results immediately. But now I’d like to use components based on what I’ve built in my design files. Possible?

Can someone please tell, was is moved somewhere else or is it completely removed for auto layouts?

Hello Figma community, I’m encountering an issue with setting a fixed background image in my Figma project. Here’s a breakdown of the problem I’m facing: Background Image Overlapping Other Layers: When I try to set the background image as fixed by placing it under the fixed section of the layers panel, it ends up being displayed in front of the rest of the layers. This behavior is unexpected, as I would expect the background image to remain behind all other layers. Opacity Setting Issue: Additionally, the background image is set at 15% opacity. However, due to the aforementioned problem with layer order, the words and images from the scrollable layers are showing through the background image. This is not the desired effect, as I intend for the background image to remain fixed. Also, I tried to use the fix from a Topic from April 2021 from this forum, but it also didn’t work. Steps to Reproduce: Add a background image to the Figma project. Set the background image as fixed by placing
