AI agent COVERS UP SCREEN
I can’t resize objects without it getting in the way every time
I can’t close the prompt modal- it sits over my designs and I can’t even move it out of the way.

Hey
A couple of things that should help:
- Turn off on-canvas prompting. Go to Main menu > Preferences and click Show AI Chat on canvas to turn it off (it's on by default). Right now, selecting a layer surfaces an Agents button next to it. Clicking that (or pressing
Cmd/Ctrl+Enter) is what opens the prompt box on the canvas. Turning the preference off removes that on-canvas entry point entirely. You can still chat with the agent any time from Agents in the left navigation bar. It just won't pop up inline over your designs. - If a prompt is actively running, click Stop in the chat box to end it.
- If a prompt box is already open and doesn't clear after that, try refreshing the file.
I've also passed along your feedback about not having a clear way to dismiss the prompt box once it's open, that's something the team's aware of.
For more on how the agent works in Figma Design, here's our guide: Work with the Figma agent in design files.
Let me know if turning off on-canvas prompting gets you back to resizing freely. Happy to dig further if it's still getting in the way.
