After latest update, components in design system are broken size/scale wise.

Glad to hear it, ​@Stein Olav Pettersen & ​@Alex172!

Please do loop me in here, if you run into any further issues.

Hi again ​@djv, 
Similar constraint issues are unfortunately back. It happens when changing size-modes according to our token/variable structure. These are all instances from the same main component but the behavior is not consistent.
Weird thing is that the effect is pretty random as you can see from this example - and it seems to move around. Made a quicktime recording just a few minutes ago - then two other instances resized the wrong way.

Been running the regenerate action but no success so far …
 

Screenshot from recent quicktime recording:

Added another test with more instances to try and find a pattern but it’s still awkwardly random. Within the main component the size modes works perfectly fine. It all happens on the instances.

Before changing size mode (default medium size):
 

After changing to large size mode:

And after a while where I switched from medium to small to large size mode. Notice the difference in size-patterns from the screenshots right above here ☝️:

Also just found that the Regenerate instance action only work when using the default (medium) size mode.

 

Hi ​@Stein Olav Pettersen, thanks for letting me know! 

Was this working for you as expected earlier this month? And if so, when did you first notice this happening again? 

Is this happening in both the desktop app and the browser? And are they both up to date? Lastly, is this happening for all your files or just this file in particular? 

With a few more details, I can flag this over to our team to see if anything has changed since we pushed the fix. 

Hi ​@djv, it was working as expected earlier this month - and still works fine with the files where I had issues before. This is a new component I am working on and the issue seems to be only in my branch (so far …). This is happening both in the desktop app and the browser which are up to date.

Reported the issue to the support team and will send a screen recording and invite them in to the file.
 

Hi again ​@djv. Just a short update: The Figma engineering team has now updated this bug. Appreciating prioritizing this one - now it’s all smiles (correct in all sizing modes) 🤩

 

The scales have been breaking for the last few days, and it has spread across all the projects.

First, I have two files: one for designed screens and one for the design system.

All icons in the DS file are 24x24. When I want to use one in a button where the icon is 16x16, I scale it down to 16.

I've been doing this for years with no problem. But in the last few days, all these scaled-down icons are resetting in instance components. meaning, in the other file, not in the design system file. Everything looks fine in the DS file.
The only solution I found is to reset the icon size in DS and scale it down again. After publishing the DS, it fixes in the other file. Any idea why this is happening recently? 

Thanks!

 

We updated the component in the design system and published it, now it’s fixed. But I agree, there’s no need to do what you did to get things back to how they were. Figma needs to address this.

This bug started to appear again a couple of weeks ago on my side. I tried regenerating all instances and temporarily fixes the bug, but as soon as I pull a new instance and change a variant the bug appears again.
