My mouse cursor is "jumping" when I try to edit something

Hey everyone — Tom here, stepping in for ​@Gayani_S today.

Thanks for taking the time to share details and answer the troubleshooting questions — it's been really helpful. Based on everything reported here, this looks to be specific to Firefox 149 so far, and we've raised it internally for a closer look. We'll follow up here with updates as soon as we have them.

Thanks for your patience. 🙏🏻

Same here. Also Firefox

Hey everyone, thank you for all the reports here! 

The team has taken a look and this may be specific to Firefox. We’ve seen a few of you mention it happening on v149, which is really helpful. So far, the team hasn’t been able to reproduce it on their side (they tested on v147 and v149), so they’re digging in further to understand what’s going on.

If you’re running into this, it would really help if you could share your Firefox version (and anything else notable about your setup). The more details we have, the faster we can narrow this down.

In the meantime, please switch to Chrome, Edge, or work with the Figma Desktop App as a temporary workaround.

Really appreciate everyone flagging this! 

Same problem - firefox 149

Hi there,

Over the last couple days of using Figma, my Figma cursor seems to be having some issues with aligning with the element I’m trying to select. When I try to select a text box, shape, image, frame, etc. I can do so, but my cursor seems to jump above the area that I’m trying to select. 

Furthermore, if I try to resize an element, I can resize it, but I have to navigate my cursor to just above the side of the element I’m trying to adjust.

How can this be fixed?

Hi ​@eb_739 and ​@Snowdud — thanks for flagging this, and sorry to hear you're running into the same issue.

A few other designers have reported similar behavior, so I've merged your posts into this thread to keep everything tracked in one place. To help narrow things down:

Could you each confirm the browser and version you're using? A few folks have found that switching to a different supported browser or the Figma Desktop App resolves the issue — worth trying if you haven't already.

Running FFv 149, checked for updates, and nothing I can do. Have restarted FF a couple times to go avail. Good luck bug hunting, guys :)

Hi, having the same problem here, I’m using FF 149.0 (64bit), Win11 just like most of the other people. Working completely fine in Chrome, but the only difference is, that for me it happens also when I hover my cursor from the left bar (Name of the file, Pages, Layers etc.) to the workspace in the middle. Most likely not tied to the hardware. I’m using a custom cursor (Not the default windows one), so there might be some collision with the Figma cursor..? But I have no evidence to support this, just an idea.

Good luck resolving this issue, hopefully it’ll be done soon :D
Feel free to contact me whenever it is fixed ;D

Ever since like a week my hovers in Figma have been broken.

My mouse is dislocated from the actual location where the cursor is, that basically makes Figma unusable. When I click on something and try to resize it the cursor just jumps around wildly.

Is this fixable for Firefox, I couldn’t replicate it on any other browser.
