Copy Interactions not working properly

Since Friday 16th of July the way I copy paste interactions is not working anymore. I normally would left-click on my noodle and press Ctrl+C and paste it into another object with Ctrl+V. The behavior is erratic, but mostly the whole object gets pasted onto the Frame instead of the interaction.

 

I have already 

  • cleared Desktop Cache
  • tried it in new files
  • tried with other accounts
  • tried on another PC

It’s really annoying for complex prototypes with lots of if/else interactions.

Hey ​@Marc0, welcome to Figma Forum and thanks for your report. Appreciate you taking the time to troubleshoot before posting, too. 🙏🏻

To help narrow this down, could you confirm a few more things?

  • Are you seeing this in the Figma Desktop App, in the browser, or both?
  • If it's the app, can you check that you're on the latest version? Click the Figma menu in the top-right and select "Check for Updates."
  • You mentioned trying another PC — what OS versions are the devices you're using?
  • Was this working consistently for you before Friday the 16th?
  • If you happen to catch any error message with the unexpected behavior, please also reply with a screenshot or recording.

This'll help me dig in and escalate for further review if needed. Thanks again!

Hello ​@Tom Reem,

Just a quick side note, sometimes it seems like a clipboard error, since when I copy while on the noodle, and then paste it, it pastes the last text I had copied.

  • Are you seeing this in the Figma Desktop App, in the browser, or both?
     I see the behavior on both platforms
  • If it's the app, can you check that you're on the latest version? Click the Figma menu in the top-right and select "Check for Updates."
     
    Checked it today, it is up to date
  • You mentioned trying another PC — what OS versions are the devices you're using?
     It was on Windows 11 Version 25H2 (Build 26200.8655) Enterprise and Windows 10         (Can’t look that up rn)
  • Was this working consistently for you before Friday the 16th?
    Yes I was using it for a long time, I think it only didn’t work when I clicked on the wrong part or didn’t hit ctrl+c accurately
  • If you happen to catch any error message with the unexpected behavior, please also reply with a screenshot or recording.
    hm not really, is there a way to see some messages in browser dev tools maybe?

It’s happening to me too, since last week. I did everything Marc0 did too. It’s both on browser and platform. I raised my own topic too.

 

It copies even the component, frame, or whatever but not the “link” which worked perfectly before.
