Hi guys,
Sometimes certain constraints get disabled, and I don’t get the reason, it happens when I make that specific element FIXED in the prototype section and I simply cannot select the disabled constrain options, especially LEFT AND RIGHT, that’s what I mostly use. Anyone know what the issue is?
Thanks :)
Hey Cristian, thanks for bringing this up!
This is a known limitation in Figma when using constraints with fixed position objects.
Our engineers are still tracking this as a longstanding limitation in Figma, but I want to be transparent that we currently don’t have a timeline for a fix. Sorry for any interruption this may be causing!
As a workaround, we recommend disabling “Fixed position,” setting your desired constraints first, and then re-enabling the fixed position when you want to make any changes to the constraint settings. While the Top & Bottom, Left & Right, and Scale options appear grayed out/disabled when ‘Fixed position”, they should still work if applied beforehand.
I’ve passed your report along to our Product and Engineering team to hopefully give this more visibility. Thank you again for your patience as we track this further on our end!
Hi Celine,
Yeah, I have been using the workaround, but I figured I’d report it too :)
Thanks
