Question

Editing the presenter's notes with 'n'

Whenever I type ‘n’ in the presenter’s notes section, it bugs out by pushing me to the next slide due to the shortcut ‘n’ I guess. Is there a way I can patch this quickly / easily (other than avoiding ‘n’ in my notes….)

This is also happening when I try to move up and down words / sentences in the notes with left and right arrow and I’m pushed to the previous or next slide. It’s driving me crazy :(  

 

Thank you!

Hey ​@Geralyn Chong, thanks for flagging this. That’s frustrating, and it shouldn’t be happening.

I tried to reproduce it in my own Slides file but couldn’t reproduce the same behavior. To help me narrow it down, could you reply with the following?

  1. Where are you typing when this happens: in the editor (single slide or grid view), or in presenter view during Present + notes?
  2. Is anyone else in the file when it happens?
  3. Does it happen in the browser, the Figma Desktop App, or both?
  4. If you’re in a browser, are you running any extensions that might interact with your keyboard
  5. Does it happen in all your Slides files, or just one?

 

Once I hear back, I’ll use your answers to dig in further or flag it with the right team. Again, thanks for reporting and for your patience. 🙏🏻
