Hello! I’ve tried to find a related topic for this with no luck.

Our team is experiencing a bug that is becoming more frequent recently and impacting our dev handover. When opening a file some elements appear to be missing until you click or engage with them and they suddenly reappear.

We thought it may be that Figma needed updating or restarting but it’s quite persistent.

Is anyone else experiencing this? 

Run Regenerate All Instances command, it should help


Thanks ​@Nellya, so this worked and they returned but when I close and reopen the file they are missing again. I can’t expect a developer to run this each time they view a file just in case something is hidden, I need confidence it appears all the time if you get me? 


Hey ​@Darren_Williams - appreciate you bring this up. I touched base with our engineering team to see if there was something off here, and it does sound like this is possible.

 

Would you be able to share a copy of the file you’re seeing this on? If you can, please share edit access to support-share@figma.com, and let me know the name of the file. You won’t be charged for this, and only support and engineers will be able to review. No worries if you can’t.

 

Some details we’re looking for: does the file use a lot of instance / components, and/or a lot of autolayout? Just want to get a general understanding of how complex your file may be

 

Let me know when you can. Thanks!


Thank you, I’ll do that now! :)
