Granted full seat, but can only make specific edits

Hey ​@I8tg — welcome to Figma Forum, and thanks for flagging this. That does sound unusual. If someone has full edit access, they should be able to modify both elements and text without restrictions. I just tested this on my side and wasn’t able to reproduce the behavior, so let’s dig a little deeper together.

When you have a moment, please check in with them and confirm a few details:

• Can they review if any of the layers they’re trying to edit are locked: Lock and unlock layers?
• Are they seeing any error messages, or is the text layer simply not responding to edits?
• If they select the text layer from the left panel first, does that allow them to edit?
• Does this happen in the browser, the desktop app, or both?
• If they’re using the Figma Desktop App, can they make sure they’re on version 125.10.8 or later?

A few designers in the community have also surfaced similar scenarios and shared what worked for them. When they have time, could they take a look at the thread linked here and let us know if any of suggestions help: Can’t edit the text layer while double clicking the text layer, or any kind of text?

If the issue continues after that, a quick walkthrough would be helpful — either a screenshot or a short recording showing the layers panel and the steps that lead to the unexpected behavior. With those details, we’ll be able to zero in on what’s going on and move forward.

Appreciate you sticking with us on this. Keep me posted on how it’s going!
