Variable panel : bug when reorganizing section

When I try to reorganize different section in the variable panel it is alway buggy : Groups ungroup. Group are integrated into other groups instead of between groups. Groupss disapear Cmd+Z go back to multiples actions instead of just one.

Prototype overlapped buttons triggers button underneath (with lower z index)

I’ve noticed that my mobile app prototype’s navigation bar (fixed at bottom) constantly triggers buttons scrolled underneath. Visually the navbar is above the content, and it has its own triggers, but upon running the prototype the button below has higher priority, thus triggering its action instead of the navigation’s.

Interaction target reversed to none if layer has visibility boolean set to hidden

Interactions set to a frame/object while hidden (viability boolean) by a variable loses interaction target (set back to none, triggers remains). Workaround: unlink visibility boolean from frame, set interaction target, add visibility boolean back

Issue with hug content in preview mode (not in present mode)

Hey Figma, Encountered an odd little bug today. When previewing, sometimes the preview will not respect hug content. This is only true in preview mode, present mode works as expected. You’ll notice this behavior when hovering over the tool tips in “advanced settings” overlay: https://www.figma.com/file/6JOyp5GjrlqGYcdZDkJX5W/Export?type=design&node-id=15-16828&mode=design&t=4NfVjLzJpKZRL07Q-4 When presenting this file, you’ll notice the container hugs the text correctly when hovering. This is on a Mac, using the web version of Figma in the latest version of Google Chrome.

Unable to submit POST request because of CORS

Figma plugins run under iframe context with has no origin null So the documentation asks us to set * wildcard origin in order to make the extension work. let imageBytes = await image.getBytesAsync(); let response = await fetch(`${BASE_URL}/api.php?figma=true`, { method: "POST", body: imageBytes, headers: { Origin: BASE_URL, }, cache: "no-cache", credentials: "omit", referrer: BASE_URL, }); My PHP code to set the CORS looks like function cors() { header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *"); if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "OPTIONS") { if (isset($_SERVER["HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_METHOD"])) { header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS"); } if (isset($_SERVER["HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_HEADERS"])) { header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers: {$_SERVER['HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_HEADERS']}"); } exit(0); } } // do stuff here cors(); // send response here When

Drop list selections using component libraries and conditional button state

Hello, I’ll explain what I’m trying to do and what the problem is I’m running into, then I will mention where bugs seem to exist. Hopefully this won’t be too long or seem full of anger but I’m SO FRUSTRATED by this tool not doing the simplest variable handling and interaction logic. It’s a list. With one button that needs to react to a variable count… like… Use Case: User wants to modify selected items in a list and then SAVE when finished modifying their selection. The SAVE button must only be available when there is a change to the original state of the list selections. SAVE being in a disabled state lets the user know that no changes have been made. Setup: I am using a component library (Material 3 Kit) separate from the design file for the checkboxes, list items, and buttons. Because of this, these components are already setup with interactions to control states such as hover, pressed, disabled, and switching between selected and deselected, etc. I have configured the interactions

"Repair component connections" does not work

Original sin: component was moved to another file before publishing, thus not triggering the “move components” flows Later sin: replaced component instances by searching for that other published component. Current problem: Components within this component show “restore component” but the outermost one is good to go and being populated by the other file. What do any of the three “repair” functions do if not this? Praying for the rise of FigJam UPDATE: This all didn’t work because I replaced the component using the side-drawer. I got it to work by selecting all instances and replacing them with a copied version of the component. Anyways, this was terrible. I’ve got too much on my plate to be debugging files.

Node Id is not unique

The docs say: Every node has an id property, which is unique within the document. If the id is invalid, or the node cannot be found (e.g. removed), returns null. figma | Plugin API But I’ve found as I’m developing my plugin that this is not true. When you alt drag a layer, the children within it have ids that are not unique. Is there a workaround?

Color Styles (bound to variables) in Paragraph with Multiple Text Styles Display in Wrong Mode

I’m experiencing an issue when updating designs after publishing my Color Library with styles now bound to new variables I made to enable theming. Specifically with paragraphs that include multiple text styles the default mode of the variable is shown instead of the parent frame mode. This is only the case when using color styles (bound to variables) in a paragraph with multiple text styles (like text and hyperlink styles). I’ve found if I break the color style and directly use the variable then the correct mode of the variable is displayed in the same paragraph with multiple text styles. Here is some screenshots showing the issue and alternative.

Search results page loads scrolled down to the second result

When I search for files using the search bar in the top left corner, the search results page keeps loading scrolled down to the second search result, instead of starting at the top of the page. This means I keep missing the top result (usually the file I want) so I gotta remember to scroll up every time the search results load, which isn’t intuitive. Minor bug but still wanted to bring it up!

Make searching for all installed plugins in Quick Actions possible again

Ressurection of Make searching for all installed plugins in Quick Actions possible again It’s completly unproductive to limit Quick Actions… even stupid Even If I use keyboard maestro, I loose my shortcuts because of the limitation that remove the saved plugins You need to correct this… it’s so obvious

Why I am recieving the update from the library which I have not Included in the project

I have a foundational library (A) utilized for constructing the design system library (B). Recently, I implemented modifications in Library A and published the updates. Subsequently, I observed that Library B received the updates, prompting me to synchronize all the changes from Library A to Library B. Which I have synced. Now, Library B serves as the primary library for my team, and they have exclusively enabled Library B in their projects. However, an issue has surfaced wherein they are receiving updates from both Library A and Library B. I am uncertain whether this is an intentional behavior or if it signifies a potential bug. How can same changes be shown twice for update as they are already addressed in Library B. And other point is that why they are receiving the update from library which they have not enabled.

Prototype Hover States on Mouse Events Malfunctioning

This might be difficult to explain. I have a row of thumbnails with hover states and each with their own background image. Each thumbnail is then displayed in a carousel (component). The functionality is, Mouse Enter (over a specific thumbnail) and the hover state and background image appears; Mouse Leave and the thumbnail returns to it’s default state. This works well, however, when you move away from the component (Mouse Leave), all mouse enter/leave events previously activated, seems to playout. Example, all the actions are kept and rolls backwards as if playing through the history. Said it would be difficult to explain! I’ve uploaded a screen recording of the issue. Any advise/direction would be a great help. I’m not sure if this is a bug within Figma or using incorrect handlers.

Applying Color Variable to an Instance or Layer

Theres a ton of API’s im finding on creating variables, adding modes, etc. But I have a complicated workflow of: Importing a component (instance) Grabbing a local variable from a collection Targeting a layer and then applying that local variable to it Ive been trying to for hours use the boundVariableColor whatever method to accomplish this and keep either getting: copyColor.Type has to equal “SOLID” which it does, or “expected a node and got a string instead”. Am i missing something? Is this even possible?

Nested Components Prototyping Bug

Hello, been running into the same problem over the past few months. If using multiple instances of a component inside of another component, they’ll get confused with each other while in prototype mode, resulting in buggy behavior. I’ve had several people in my team come to me with the same problem. While I did find a fix (naming the components with unique names so they don’t get confused with each other) this feels like a bug that should be automatically handled by Figma. The first time I ran into this I think it took me almost an hour to figure out. File example Video of problem: A related thread, though the solution was the workaround, rather than Figma fixing the source of the problem

Person who is not the owner of the file is able to delete files permanently

I’ve created a file and I am the owner, but another person with edit permission was able to permanently delete my file if they try to do it just a few seconds after deleting the file. If they take a few minutes to try to delete permanently, the option doesn’t show up anymore and only the owner is able to delete ir forever or restoring it — as it should be.

Where is the locate button when update only 1 instances

When there are 2 or more instances need updates, it will show the “Locate” icon to quickly go to the instances. But when there is only 1 instance, the button is gone. How can I find that instance in the file? In this case it should have been renamed I can not use Find to find it by layer name.

New User Tutorial Bugs

I tried to do the new user tutorial to create a new file, but it’s very buggy. After the “create frame” step, I hit next, and the next step pops up on the screen for a half of a second on the right side of the screen, and then it goes back to the create frame step. If I hit X, the create frame step goes away for a second and then comes back. I can neither exit, nor complete the tutorial.

Text jumps up/down within bounding box when selected - intermittent issue

This has been frustrating me for a while now so I thought I’d finally get around to posting! When editing a Figma file, if I select a text element the text can jump up/down within it’s bounding box. The bounding box does not change height, it’s just how the text sits within it that changes. So if you have two artboards with the same header + heading/text for example and select those elements on one of the artboards, the text can move up. So moving between each the text won’t align. So you need to through everything and click so it all matches. Not ideal but everything is consistent again at least …until a few days later when the opposite happens and the text moves back down to how it was. I thought this was down to multiple users and maybe different versions of the same font file but last night I left something, no one else has been in the file but I’m clicking stuff and the text is moving around again. So can’t be down to the font file or another user. All the typography is setup and
