Unhide the distribute options

I just got the UI3 update and it looks like the distribution buttons have been permanently tucked under an overflow menu now. They’re really useful, though, and I’d love for them to be at the top level of the UI, at least when using the select tool.

Figma Slides – share a plain 'Audience' link, without the ability to open in Figma, view slide notes, or add comments

I’m wondering if this is a bug. Sharing a ‘Presentation link’ gives the recipient a view-only view of the working Figma file along with notes. Makes sense if there are other presenters and they need to see the notes too. Sharing an ‘Audience link’ gives the recipient a view-only view of the slides. However, it also allows them – who will very often be a client – to click a button at the top to open a view-only version of the Figma file along with all of the presentation notes. Unfortunately, it’s currently not fit for purpose to share a link with clients, as there’s no way to send it purely for viewing without all the additional UI options to open in Figma and view notes etc.} Ideally, there needs to be a sharable ‘Audience’ view of the slides where all that can be seen is the slides – no extras, no ‘sign in’, no ‘add comments’ (ideally this can be switched on OR off), and definitely no ‘open in Figma Slides’. Just a view of the slides, and that’s it.

Unexpected behavior for resolvedVariableModes

resolvedVariableModes is empty if the node doesn’t have at least one variable defined. This is also the case if the parent node has an explicit mode. Expected behavior: According to the documentation, nodes have default mode values, which should be returned regardless whether the node has a variable or not. resolvedVariableModes | Plugin API

Weird blur on UI3?

I often get a weird blur in the new interface. It isn’t part of content and doesn’t move with the canvas. Reloading the tab remedies this, but it’s really annoying.

Figma not listening to ui.html and code.ts changes during local development

I recently published a plugin, and since then, I have been unable to test new updates locally. Changes to the ui.html and code.ts files aren’t reflected in the local Figma plugin. Related: Hot reload not working with React

Variables not being copied between figma decks!

I had a Figma deck where I had used variables to control the component states and I was setting them using actions. I had to merge these views into a larger deck and copied them however none of the variables are appearing in the new decks variable panel or are they available to assign. Where they have been previously used they still appear as assigned variables but cannot be edited etc. How do I migrate the variables?

Updating properties with nested instances and variables through to the lowest level

When you change a nested instance of a component property’s variables, it doesn’t update the change to the lowest level. So you have to click all the way through to ensure there are no breaks in the component and inconsistencies. This somewhat renders the feature moot because you cannot rely on the UI’s tree. You have to fix everything manually

Self-made Figma slides template is not included in templates when creating a new deck

I want to reuse my self-made template, but it doesn’t appear in the templates list. Which is very annoying. What’s the purpose of custom templates when it isn’t made available for yourself/your team? Kinda a turn off to have to open the template first and click the tiny button in the top right to use it elsewhere (for which it has to be updated completely). I also noticed that somehow Figma wants me to update the slide deck template, whilst there were no changes made to it. Is that because of library (design system) updates I made?

Slides "appearance" design controls periodically disappear

I have noticed that, when I’m in design mode, certain settings that normally appear in the right-hand design panel sometimes disappear. It seemed random at first, but today I realized that it’s consistently happening whenever I toggle over to the animation panel and come back to the design panel. Specifically, my corner radius and opacity settings are disappearing. The only way I’ve found to get them back is to right click and refresh the whole file tab. The attached images show a comparison of the panel before and after I change the slide’s animation settings. You can see that the “Appearance” tools have disappeared. Has anyone else encountered this? I also filed a bug report.

Variant sorting [Again?]

Is anyone having any luck with sorting variant properties in this mighty shiny new UI? I am using components with icons that I like to sort using my own logic instead of Figma’s, and no matter how hard I drag them (from the side -yes, I know, I know) they are usually sticky? What in the actual sorting fail is this?? Often times -I genuinely wonder- if anyone from Figma is actually using Figma. This is beyond me, why they did away with the (very) old sorting that was in fact working - old folks will remember the one where variants were a different list with pill-shaped items and you could click anywhere to drag them around. Key word here is around, since if their names were short enough, you could even have two on the same line, and therefore it would take even less space compared to this abomination that in the new UI is not even working anymore. To add insult to injury, Figma is successfully unable to at least link the sorting of the layers with this abomination. Because you know, you

Interactive state doesn't reset after overlay is closed

Yes I know this topic has been raised before, but I would like to raise it again, since it is breaking the core interaction in my design system. Is Figma even aware of this issue? Since the last discussion about it is ~2years ago, and this issue still exists. Steps: Create a Button component set with 2 variants: Default, On Press Add interactions in the variant: “Default” → While pressing → Change to “On Press” Insert an instance of the “Default” button into a new Frame Add interactions to the button: On Click → Open overlay. Check the “Close when clicking outside” box. Test the prototype Results When you click the button, the button change to “On Press”, the overlay opens, but when clicking outside the overlay to close it, the button does not reset back to “Default”. Expected: The button should reset to “Default”.

Copy as Text doesn't work in last update

I’ve set up a custom keyboard shortcut in Figma for copying as text on my Mac. It was working great, but after the latest update, it’s broken. Please fix this issue as soon as possible. It’s making my work much harder. There are two text layers with different styles I select the first text, press the key combination (control+command+C) I expect that only the text will be copied to the clipboard, without styles (copy as text) in fact, the text with styles is copied macOS 15.0.1 (24A348) Figma Desktop App version 124.5.5

Shortcut Component Picker search is unusable

The component picker has always been a bit janky. However, the picker in the new UI is now almost unusable within projects that have many components. What I’m seeing The picker I’m talking about is the one shown when I hit SHIFT+I. I have the following issues with it: Search is painfully slow, sometimes taking up to 30 seconds to load the results In-flight searches prevent continuing to type in the search terms If I don’t type all the keywords in immediately, sometimes an in-flight search while I’m typing will clear new characters typed into the search bar I’ve emphasised the biggest issue I have with the search experience. Here is a short screen recording of the issue: What I expected The search input field is completely isolated from whether or not there is a search in progress. That means I can at least make sure I have the right search terms and wait for the results. This is pretty standard behaviour for a search input.

Can't open Figma macOS desktop application and workarounds didn't

I downloaded and installed the latest version of Figma for macOS running over the existing installation. The app didn’t launch afterwards. I followed proposed workaround on the forum - mainly clearing Figma cash via Terminal and removing and reinstalling Figma but non of these workarounds helped. This seems to be a common issue…

Component's prototype will disappear when project receive updates from library

I’ve been always experiencing this bug since the last update of Figma. I have these input fields with new updates. And these input fields are wrapped with a parent component called Signup Form. And this Signup Form is already used in my projects. Note that the CTAs are separate from the form (wraps all the inputs). Now, if these Input fields have updates, the Signup Form’s prototype will break. This is ready ridiculous. It happens many times. Please! Please! Please! Have a look at this.

BUG: Nested layer group name is truncating unnecessarily

The name of nested layer groups are truncating when there’s plenty of room to display the full name. Since we can resize the right panel, there should be no reason to set a fixed width on the text.

Issue with mask breaking when component resizes

I have a button component with a bunch of different variants. One variant is a Disabled state where I have added a color mask to make the icons look disabled. Our icons come in a variety of colors and this has been the only guaranteed way to make sure all of the colors appear the same when disabling and then returning to normal when enabling. The issue I’m running into is when we want to resize the icon within the button, the mask breaks. This is frustrating because icons in our software do occur in many sizes but for some reason I cannot use a mask in this component unless the icon is the default size. For reference on what’s occurring, here are some images. Expected behavior when our default sized icon goes from its neutral state to disabled: Buggy behavior when the icon increases in size using a nested component. The resize occurs like normal for all states except the one that requires a mask (Disabled). Instead there is no resizing AND the mask is now broken. This is how the ma
