I have been experiencing unusual behavior in Figma for several days. When I use Spacebar + mouse to pan, the canvas moves unpredictably in different directions while the spacebar is pressed. Refreshing Figma temporarily resolves the issue, but the glitch reoccurs frequently. I am using Figma Web.
Question
Spacebar panning glitch in Figma
Same here, issue still persists. When pressing the space bar to move around, it just starts moving randomly (down usually).
I don't know if this is related to any changes on the developers' side, but the issue disappeared when I switched from a wired Logitech B110 mouse to a wireless Logitech Signature M650L about 10 days ago. However, after the latest update, the custom commands assigned to the extra side buttons on the mouse stopped working in Figma, and a few days ago the spacebar panning glitch came back.
Yes, the issue resets temporarily when you switch from Figma to another application and back, but this can hardly be called normal or a comfortable working experience.
Hey everyone, really sorry you’re still running into this and that the previous fix didn’t resolve things!
Thanks a lot for sharing these details as well. I’ve flagged this again with the team so they can take a closer look based on what you’re seeing here. The team is actively working on this and doing their best to get it resolved for everyone.
I’ll share an update here as soon as I hear back.
Appreciate your patience in the meantime!
Just to add to what Alexander mentioned — this might help — I’m also using a Logitech mouse (wireless MX Master 2S).
