Solved

For some reason, the design system component instances cannot be altered.I created a new project, added a page, gave a colleague edit access and added our design system to it so the components are accessible.Yet all properties are read only.What am I doing wrong?  

I am building a hi-fi iOS prototype in Figma. Trying to keep things as real as possible. Using the bezels to demo on desktop, for recording video. Important to be as real as feasible, as the people viewing would be used to seeing hi-fi iOS demos. So, I am desperately wanting to stop the status bar from pushing in on animated transitions and causing the effect seen in the movie below. But I also don’t want to remove the status bar and put it back in post (too lazy and then I can’t demo live), nor do tons of wacky magic animation or custom transitions to pull this off (seems like not worth the pain), nor stick to instant transitions (definitely will look fake). My question: Has anyone figured out how to pull this off in an easy way? Keeping the status bar always fixed when using out-of-the-box prototyping transitions.

My whole file is all over with measurments and its NOT dev-mode, not measurment mode, i tried turn on and off rules, pixel grids, layots, all hidden layers and objects and i dont have any measurments or pixels plugins to think at it. What to do? Every page of every project. 

Hello. I am looking for a way to copy frames with dozens of annotations attached to them into another file as they are. With regular copying, there's no way to copy the annotations along with the frame, so I have to manually copy them all.

Yesterday all the designs have got detached from the Jira tickets, is there any solution to fix this issue??Jira Version : Jira CloudPlugin we use : Figma for Jira Please we are a company and our business got affected due to this issue!

I’m creating a plugins project, but Figma updates its version, then I update Figma, and all my projects are gone, how do I find this?

Hey guys,I know there are lots of topics about this issue but none of them have solved my problem. It is very interesting because when I publish my variables from my Component Library, only ‘Primitives’ collection is accessible in other projects. And I see Tokens are hidden and Figma says these won’t be published. But I don’t know the reason. Because these Tokens are not selected as ‘Hide from publishing’  Can you guys help? Thanks!

Since the 25 March update to the file browser I can only view files in grid view, as opposed to a vertical list.Is this a bug or has this feature been deliberately removed, and if so why? Previous layout options 

it’s really really not convenient for me 

A video is added in a design, but there is no option to export it as .mov or .mp4 when my colleagues need the original file for develop

Currently, if we comment on an artboard and move it around the same page the comment bubble usually stays with that artboard wherever it goes. But when an artboard is cut/pasted to another page within the Figma file the comments do move with the artboard. This becomes a problem if I want to move my older designs into the archive page along with the comments for auditing. Any help?

I saw the update, “We updated the file browser to create a more consistent and seamless experience as you use Figma products.”I have too many files in projects -- I need the List View to skim them fast. This change does not make a more consistent and seamless experience, it’s slowing me down and making it much harder to find the files I need. Please bring this back, this is impeding my ability to find things.Is there a plugin I can use to get my list view back?

Hello there, I want to join 2 vector paths in Figma, but I don't know how to do it : Why I can't use Vector > Join Selection with my vector paths ? See attachment file above this line of text.Thanks for your help!

I've been learning Figma for the past six months. I came across this website (https://organimo.com/) and really liked the scrolling effect. I’d love to recreate something similar as a prototype in Figma. Could anyone guide me on how to achieve this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I upgraded to pro over the weekend so that I could add the Shadcn UI Kit for Figma. It’s a library of components. I’ve followed these instructions but I can’t get it to publish to my account. https://www.shadcndesign.com/docs/getting-started Every time I try to publish it a figma dialog asks me to upgrade to pro. But I’ve already upgraded my account to pro. I only have one account and it’s a pro account.  How can I add this UI library to my account? 

I found figma today, and i think this may be a useful tool, so I saw that figma offers students free access, but my school is not listed in their list. Can I still somehow get verified for student plan? Greetings Chris

Red: I added this file to the library, and everything worked fine. Blue: I added it the same way, but it’s not in the library list, and I can’t search for any components from this library. I tried removing and adding it again, but it still doesn’t work. Does anyone know why?

Hi there. Our team is much smaller than before, therefore we think about downgrading the plan from Organization to Professional. I saw that “Branching and merging” is not supported in the Professional one. But what does it mean in practice? We have quite a few ope branches at the moment. Does it mean that we will loose access to them, or won’t be just able to merge them?Would be grateful for any insights on that.

So basically I’ve got 418 different images(419 if you include the placeholder) that I want to have as variants of an icon component, and if possible using their file names as the variant names because they’re name numerically but there’s several gaps in the numbering so I can’t just batch rename the variants with incremental numbering.I am relatively new to figma as a whole though I’ve got a lot of component related things down now,But something like this is so massive that I can’t reasonable paste them all in manually and I can’t figure out a good way to do it efficiently 

Hi there,I recently upgraded my Figma account from Professional to Team Enterprise, and I noticed that all my drafts have disappeared. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I'm hoping to understand if there is a way to recover my lost drafts or if this is an expected behavior following the upgrade. Any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

How do I import CSS to my UI.HTML file? I’ve been trying forever but unfortunately with no luck. ui.css is linked in my project folder, not under any folders. Here’s what I currently have in my ui.html file: <link rel="stylesheet" href="ui.css"> Any help is appreciated. Thank you so much!! <3 When I try the same code in the browser, it links and the elements change but, when I open my Figma Plugin’s UI window, there’s no luck.

Hello Figma Community. I’m fairly new with Figma, and also with web interaction concepts, because I’m coming from the world of print design. I have a question related how this particular concept works with a 6 state button function. I’m confused why it’s set up the way it is, with the hover states being on 5 & 6, and not on states 3 & 4. One would think, the button by default is OFF, and when the mouse hovers over the button it would HOVER, then when pressed it would make some change of colour (button Background or text colour Change).  I have been assigned a task in my group, and this is the layout of the buttons, Can someone please explain how this works, and what would be a good example, by making a mock up I could possibly follow the layout.     Thank you.  

Hello.I have a lot of icons with different names and spaces in them. I need to remove the "Pixel/Solid/" in the name, leaving only the final name of the icon, and also remove the spaces where they are present.I read the information about renaming, and there was an option with variables, but after trying it, nothing worked for me.  

I keep receiving the following error message when attempting to run plugins: “An error occurred while loading the plugin environment.” I’ve cleared my app cache, restarted, and uninstalled plugins all to no success. When I open the console, it seems to stop at this point:

Why was I charged $80 for my account with only one site? Me alone, this is crazy
