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

Hello!
I have been using Figma in the browser for more than a year on this PC and this has never happened before. When I try to move or resize a selected element, the mouse jumps diagonally about 5 mm away, so I can't move anything anymore. It happened after 20 minutes of working on this file without any problem, but now the bug affects every component.

(I recorded a screen capture to better understand this weird interaction.)

(I may have made an error and accidentally activated an option without knowing it?)

Hello,

The same issue occurs on Windows 11 and Firefox 149.0 (64-bit): the cursor keeps jumping.

The problem may be related to the viewport icon change. It is possible that, after the icon changes, the JavaScript calculates the wrong coordinates. This could be causing a positioning issue.

Hi ​@iqqqbbbal — checking in on this. Our engineering team is continuing to investigate the issue you reported. Have you noticed any improvement in Firefox, or is this happening on other supported browsers as well?

If it's still occurring, the following would help the team narrow things down:

  • The device and operating system you're using
  • The exact browser version where you're seeing this
  • Confirmation if this issue occurs with other apps or websites, or if you’re encountering it exclusively on Figma
  • A brief screen recording of the jumping cursor in action (if possible)

Thanks for your patience — I'll keep an eye out for your reply.
