Unable to use point and edit in Make

Hey ​@Paul Wagner, thanks for reaching out! I understand that blocking the entire prompt box, especially the Point and Edit option disturbs your workflow.

I checked with the team, and this is currently expected behaviour. That said, your suggestion makes a lot of sense, and you’re not alone in this feedback. I’ve added your post to our internal tracking so it’s captured as a feature request.

It would be really useful to understand your specific use case a bit more. For example, which actions you’re trying to take within Point and Edit after hitting the credit limit.

Thank you for flagging this! 

What I would expect to be able to do with point and edit even when I no longer had credits left would basically be the options allowed under the point and select’s Edit properties toolbar

1. Manually edit text or it’s style
2. Modify it’s margin or padding
3. Delete a selection
4. Select something and choose go to source where I am then taken to where that object lies in the code view

Hopefully that is helpful. I plan to make more of my edits this way even when I have available tokens now that it is a limited resource. But if I run out I would expect to still be able to make manual edits of this nature.

It appears that Figma is charging AI credits for direct edits. Since there is no way to commit the change unless you use the prompt box. I tried to change one word in a button and it wouldnt save the change. I used the prompt box and it charged me 44 credits. ​@Gayani_S  is this expected behavior?

Hey ​@Summer Derrick, I want to make sure I understand what happened correctly:

When you edited the button text using the prompt box, did the AI action run successfully but the text change didn’t actually save? Or do you mean you weren’t able to make the direct text edit without going through the prompt box in the first place? 

A little more detail will help me better understand the behavior you’re seeing and share more accurate info. Thank you for you help! 

​@Gayani_S I made the edit to the button text directly in the code. While in the code view a note popped up in the prompt box asking if I want to save or discard the changes I just made. When I hit save it charged me 44 credits. If I didnt choose save or discard my changes would be lost. 

Hey ​@Summer Derrick, thank you for clarifying, and apologies for the delayed response! 

I’ve reached out to the team internally and shared your case to confirm whether this is expected behavior or not. I’ll update you here as soon as I hear back from them.

Appreciate your patience while I look into this! 

Hey ​@Summer Derrick, the team hasn’t been able to reproduce this on their end so far, so just want to make sure we’re looking at the same thing. Can you confirm if the save/discard buttons were disabled unless there was text in the prompt box?

If possible, could you also share a screenshot or a short recording (Loom or Google Drive link works great)? That would really help us take a closer look.

​@Gayani_S The save/discard buttons show up after I make a change with the Point/Edit tool. Here is a video link. 

Hey ​@Summer Derrick, thanks again for your patience, and I’m sorry for the delay in getting back to you. 

Since this is tied to account-specific details, I’m not able to fully investigate it here on the forum. To make sure this gets properly looked into, I’ve gone ahead and created a support ticket on your behalf ( #1895726) and shared your screen recording along with the context from this thread. That way, the team has everything they need to dig into what’s happening.

Someone from the support team should reach out to you soon with an update. Thanks again for your patience while we look into this!
