“Copy design” is missing in one Figma Make file

Im using figma make and the Copy design option is missing in one of my Figma Make files, so I cannot copy the preview as editable layers into Figma Design.

I have a Full seat in a Professional team, and Copy design is available in other Make files in the same team. The affected file’s preview loads correctly. I also duplicated the file, but the option is missing in the duplicate.

Hey ​@Saurabha Prasad Mahapatra Can you try something for me, please? The new entry point to access this is by clicking "Edit" in the upper-right corner and you'll see a new toolbar at the bottom of the Make preview.

If that still won’t work for you, please let us know. — Jaycee

The Copy design button has disappeared from the top of the preview area in Figma Make. I have been using this feature regularly without any issues, but today it suddenly stopped appearing. In the preview area, I only see three options at the top right: Preview options, Comments, and Edit. The Copy design button is completely missing.

I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps:

  • Created a new Figma Make file — the button is still missing
  • Opened the file in an incognito window — the button is still missing
  • Added &disablepreview to the URL and re-enabled the preview — the button is still missing

Hi Figma Support,

The "Copy Design" button is missing from my Figma Make projects.

I have a Professional plan with a Full Seat and Admin permissions.

I've already tested both the desktop application and the web browser, but the button is missing in both.

I need to transfer my Figma Make UI components into Figma Design as editable layers.

Could you please investigate this issue or restore access to the Copy Design feature?

Thank you!

Hi Figma Support, the Copy design button has suddenly disappeared from my Figma Make preview toolbar. I only see Preview options, Comments, and Edit.

Hi, ​@Eduard Nesterenko and ​@vikas Ray! Thank you both for your posts - I’ve moved over to this thread where I just marked a solution for this particular question.

 

The quick answer, though, is click Edit at the top right of Figma Make and you’ll see a toolbar at the bottom of the screen that includes the Copy Design button. Let us know if you have any trouble!
