I can’t see beyond a certain point in the Layers panel, the layers seem to be hidden by an invisible limit, which didn’t exist before the new update to the Layers panel. I can’t edit the layers because I can’t see them, and the focus interaction doesn’t work either.

Hi
I understand that you’re having an issue with the Layers panel. From your screenshot, it looks like some layers that should appear in the lower half of the panel aren’t visible — is that correct?
I tested this on my end, and the Layers panel appears to be working as expected.
Could you please check a few things for us?
Is this happening only in a supported browser, in the desktop app, or in both?
Does this occur in a specific file or across all files?
Also, to cover the basics, please try these quick fixes and see if there’s any change:
Close any Figma tabs you’re not using.
Browser: Force-quit your browser and reopen Figma in a new window. Desktop app: Force-quit the Figma Desktop app and restart it.
If the issue persists, I recommend contacting our support team directly so they can investigate further: Submit a request
When submitting the form, please include:
The URL of the file where you’re seeing the issue, and grant edit access to support-share@figma.com (granting access will not affect your billing).
A video recording of the issue showing the full Figma screen.
Any findings from the troubleshooting steps above.
This information will help our team reproduce the issue and investigate it more effectively.
Thanks,

Quick fix for Figma layers not showing:
1. Expand all groups/folders– click the arrows/carets.
2. Check filters – set the search/filter to “All Layers.”
3. Check visibility – make sure the eye icon is on.
4. Scroll / resize panel – adjust the Layers panel height.
5. Restart Figma – reload the app or browser.
6. Select via canvas– click the layer on canvas to highlight it in the panel. These steps usually restore hidden layers.
Check if your layers are inside collapsed groups or if a filter is active in the Layers panel — that usually hides some layers.
