Hi,
I want to report a critical issue with typing/input in Figma and FigJam on Windows.
Problem:
- Typing becomes extremely laggy or completely unusable
- Characters are skipped or input behaves unpredictably
- Sometimes typing only works correctly when holding Ctrl
- Scroll/zoom behavior also becomes inconsistent
Important observations:
- The issue starts after a short time of working (initially typing works fine)
- Affects both Figma desktop app and browsers (Chrome, Edge)
- Occurs across multiple accounts and different machines
Scope:
- This issue affects over 30 of my students
- It is not limited to a single setup or device
- Makes it impossible to conduct classes
Additional detail:
- Users on iPads do NOT experience this issue at all
- Other applications (e.g. OneNote) work perfectly fine on the same devices
- Resetting Windows and reinstalling Figma did NOT fix the issue
This strongly suggests a bug related to keyboard/input handling on Windows (Chromium/Electron environment).
Has anyone else experienced this?
This is currently blocking real teaching work, so any confirmation or workaround would be greatly appreciated.
