Did a mac OS update, seems like the issue resolved itself, happy to mark this as resolved.

Hey Jaycee,

It actually affects not just one but all our existing files in our organisation, but will do as suggested to move this discussion to “report a bug”

I have this problem after updating figma this morning. It’s ok on the beta. Noticed the “create component” icon has moved from he right toolbar to above the floating toolset. Mac is up to date so an update isn't available.
