Unable to drag and drop entities on Figma web via self-hosted UI

Hey, we recently launched a plugin for FigJam (https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1220696620350131525) that exports notes as Stickies and clips as Embeds. This works fine for Figma Desktop App but doesn’t replicate same behaviour on Figma on web. We have followed the official guide for implementing drag and drop for self-hosted UI. Guide: https://www.figma.com/plugin-docs/creating-ui/#drop-events-from-a-non-null-origin-iframe Official Code Example: https://github.com/figma/plugin-samples/blob/master/icon-drag-and-drop-hosted/index.html We’re now left with the following doubts Is it not possible to implement drag and drop for self-hosted UI on Figma Web? If yes, what else should we do to ensure the same? Currently its not possible to test Figma plugins for web during development, could there be a way to test how plugins would function on web in the future? This would help us avoid unexpected behaviour after we launch or update the plugin.

figma.createNodeFromSvg can not create linearGradient with percetange x1

When I create svg nodes in figma.createNodeFromSvg, two different style nodes were create. However, these svgs have same style in browser. The only code diff were linearGradient x1,y1,x2,y2 as fellow image. It seems like Figma can not handle percentage type linearGradient right？ linearGradient with percentage type x1,x2,y1y2 in browser linearGradient with number type x1,x2,y1y2 in browser

Why does assigning vectorPaths concatenate data: values?

I create a variable: let iconVectorPaths : VectorPaths = []; I assign a path (pasted from copied Chrome inspector object): iconVectorPaths = [ { "windingRule": "NONZERO", "data": "M 4.989105701446533 6.993822125878069e-7 L 5.989105701446533 6.993822125878069e-7 L 5.989105701446533 16.013992309570312 L 4.989105701446533 16.013992309570312 L 4.989105701446533 6.993822125878069e-7 Z" }, { "windingRule": "NONZERO", "data": "M 16 5.024010181427002 L 16 6.024010181427002 L 2.1366776081777061e-7 6.024009704589844 L 2.636236331454711e-7 5.024009704589844 L 16 5.024010181427002 Z" }, ... And then later assign it to a variable of type VectorNode: iconVector.vectorPaths = iconVectorPaths; This last assignment concatenates values of many data: attributes of the original into every data: attribute of the VectorNode’s vectorPaths array. Why?

Update branch from main disregarding changes I've made

I’m working in a branch and have made a lot of edits. Normally I update from main every now and then to get things up to date and to get rid of the popup, but when I did it today I see that the page I’m working on is changed when opening the dialog. The preview in “Keep branch” is reflecting this and showing me an older version. In the background I can see that the view shifts into the “Version history” view which is very strange. It’s driving me mad. Please help

Library does not recognize when a new component is added

Sometimes when I add a new component and go to publish the change, the library file shows that it is up-to-date and there are no updates. I cannot copy + paste these components where they need to go either (the linking breaks). Occasionally, entire pages full of components become unlinked and do not appear in other files.

Error: Two rectangles with same property but look different

It seems that I have created two rectangles with exactly the same style property, but they look different. Even copying & pasting the style can’t solve this problem.

waitForTask + useSyncedState loop

When I use the example in waitForTask doc the widget doesn’t stop rendering const { widget } = figma const { Text, useEffect, waitForTask, useSyncedState } = widget function WaitForTaskExample() { const [textContent, setTextContent] = useSyncedState("text", "Initial") useEffect(() => { waitForTask(new Promise(resolve => { // Simulate async work setTimeout(() => { setTextContent("Final") // Resolve the task resolve() }, 1000) })) }) return <Text>{textContent}</Text> } widget.register(WaitForTaskExample) On the setTextContent the widget seems to restart and rendering again and again

When in a Branch, Main File Constantly Pushes Updates

Whenever we have a branch open from a main file and are doing work, we are constantly getting updates that the branch is different from the main file. This is to be expected, as I am working in the branch, but this is persistent and never goes away. The moment I start making changes in a branch, I am presented with a dialog stating there are changes in the main file, even if it hasn’t been touched. Then if I click Update and Keep Main, I will end up overwriting all of the work that has been done on the branch. Not sure why this is happening, but it is certainly frustrating as it negates the whole point of a branch.

The "documentchange" event does not fire on undo/redo if the instance's "name" property has been changed

If you change the name of the instance by calling the rename function, the documentchange event will fire and indicate that the name property has been changed, but if you undo/redo, this event will not fire. Steps to reproduce: Place an instance of any component on the canvas, or select an existing one. Run the plugin with the documentchange event listener. figma.on( 'documentchange', ({documentChanges}) => { console.log(documentChanges) } ); Change the name of the selected instance using Figma’s native rename function. Undo and redo the last action. Expected result: The documentchange event will fire and print an array of objects to the console. Actual result: The documentchange event does not fire.

Changing icon color in variants problem

If you have some problems with changing color while using variants in Figma, Here is a solution: All in all, you need to Flatten each layer of a variant, for this, as you know Figma doesn’t have the Flatten each layer option, so I suggest you download the Automator plugin. After that, Select all layers (you can do this by pressing Enter while selecting the parent layer) Run Automator > Object > Flatten selection, then click Flatten each layer. Done!

"An invalid image or thumbnail was removed" after updating component

I had a component with that had a Color Style layered in this manner: Image Layer (85% opacity) – just the Figma’s native placeholder checkered background #858585 Solid Layer (beneath Image) I recently updated this Color Style and added an image to replace the placeholder checkered version. When I publish the update and update my component instance on a separate file, the error “An invalid image or thumbnail was removed.” For now, I’ve been able to avoid this error by layering the Color Style in this manner: Image Layer (0% opacity) – the original checkered background image layer New Image Layer (85% opacity) – the image I intended to replace the placeholder #858585 Solid Layer Is there a way to fix this issue so that I don’t need to layer redundant image layers? Thanks!

Line arrow style not retained when updating branch from main file

I was working on a branch and was at a point I needed to update the branch with recent updates from the main file. When resolving the conflict between main & branch (it was the only conflict and was an entire Section that I had been working on in the branch) I chose Keep Branch, it kept everything as expected EXCEPT for all the arrow styles on lines that I had updated in that Section. I noticed the arrows weren’t displaying correctly in the branch window when viewing the conflict side-by-side, even though they were clearly a different style in the branch itself.

Local fillStyleId not matching library fillStyleId

In my colour library “Light Theme” I have a colour style called “contentDefault” if I create a rectangle in the library, apply this style and then run figma.currentPage.selection[0].fillStyleId I get the fill style ID S:1eab1fd8b8857bf87c862afd0590934a23ac0368, (key changed). If I run figma.getLocalPaintStyles() I can see this same key appears as a local paint style in my library. The library is published and up to date. In a separate local file I have 2 different text elements and they both have the style “contentDefault” applied to them, but when I run figma.currentPage.selection[0].fillStyleId they have two different values: One is S:1eab1fd8b8857bf87c862afd0590934a23ac0368,15:73 while the other is S:effba5ca507e1ec8b0b745807cfb2da2e0c3fcdb,2398:0. If I open the colour style selector it indicates that both of these styles are “contentDefault” and both are in the “Light theme” library and if I select “Go to style definition to edit” it takes me to the same library file.

Links are not clickable anymore when the frame is locked?

I have 10 public files and was quite happy about the possibility to lock frames/content but the insert links where still clickable. Has this option been removed? Is there a new way of doing this? Was quite nice for the user imo. Like within a readme file.
