Hi there I’m building popups for our mobile app. but I’m looking for a way i can show popups in full width in the prototype when i show them as overlay. is this possible without having to manually change the width?
Hi dear Figma community, Wanted to know if there is a hard rule between using layout and using component. When should I use one and not the other and why ?
Hello, i have a problem setting up components that are resizing on click. There is a left side behaving as i like. With auto layout it is pushing the right elements to the right and lower elements down. The right side should do the same only sides inverted, that it pushes left elements to the left and lower down. Can anyone please help me to make this happen and if it is not possible, maybe is there any idea to get something similar done? My idea is to get a bubble that offers further information on click. The most easy way would be an overlay hovering in, but i thougt about something thats different. https://www.figma.com/file/tsW87hYyQXGX0yxFVJFMGX/Untitled?type=design&node-id=0%3A1&mode=design&t=32YYEjl7dZfYMONy-1 thanks
Hello, I updated my Figma desktop app this morning. Unfortunately my MacBook Pro is a Big Sur Version 10.13.1 and now the new version doesn’t work because it needs MacOS 10.15 or higher. I want to know if I can revert to the previous version. I do have access to the online version, but my internet connection is unstable and its easier to work on the desktop app. Thank you!
I’m not sure this is doable in Figma. Looking either for confirmation of that and/or if there are workarounds. What I’m trying to do: I have a continuously looping animated component I’ve set as the bottom most element of a frame (the background) I want to animate elements on top of it and navigate between frames the problem: navigating from frame 1 to frame 2 using smart animation works for everything BUT the background looping animation. What happens is that the background animation freezes, the rest of the elements animated, and then the background animation ‘resets’ and continues on animating. It’s a very jarring transition. The only thing I’ve thought of (but haven’t tried yet) is redoing this looping animation in aftereffects and exporting as a movie, and then bringing that into Figma. But have a hunch I may have the same ‘reset’ issue.
When I edit a color gradient, a certain point in the color gradient cannot be deleted.
Hello 👋 One of my projects keeps showing this You have unsaved changes dialogue (As if I were offline). I can open and sync any other project but for some reason, when I want to close this project, the dialogue keeps showing up. I’m using the desktop app and when I make changes, they do reflect in the webapp. So not sure what’s going on. Anyone knows how to fix this?
Since yesterday evening, after I publish library updates, I am not prompted to update the components in the file where the library is available. I also don’t see the updates when going to libraries → updates. If I close and reopen Figma, the update prompt appears instantly.
I have pro account and I add one unused Figma design seat by mistakenly. And now for that unused Figma design seat showing monthly plan. And this extra seat no one is using. I want remove this. How can I remove this?
[FIXED] Hi everyone, I’m running into this weird issue lately, this wasn’t happening before. started happening about a day ago maybe… I’ve got a component, that has a couple of variants based on breakpoints. For some reason, when I switch from one variant to another, the newly applied Variant is flipped Horizontally. trying to figure out what is going. [FIXED]
Hi. Show / Hide UI shortcut isn’t working. Context: I’m on Mac OS Big Sur 11.6.7, Figma app with the last update. I’ve already restarted my computer and app. I’m sorry for this common question, I’ve looked for similar topics but nothing worked so far. I’ve tried a lot of possible shortcuts for “show/hide UI” (considering I have an azerty french keyboard) and it just won’t work. command + . command + \ command + ' I don’t get it, because currently the right shortcut seems to be command + . but it doesn’t work. However, when I click on “Show / Hide UI” in the menu or when I right click + select Show / Hide UI, it works. Can somebody help? Thank you 🙂
Hi, currently designing some high-fidelity wireframes for a mobile app I’m working on and I added some svg icons to the nav menu which aren’t showing up in presentation view. Is there a reason for this? And is there any way to fix it so they are displayed in presentation mode? I have pictures of the problem in case they are needed to further clarify what is happening. Thank you.
Dear community, the width of the sidebar is fix and the names of the styles are therefore truncated. How can I display the whole level? Thank you!! Ravid
Hi everyone, I am building a prototype for an app that contains a kind of reel-feed. I am super happy, that I am now able to use videos for Prototypes ( 🎉 ) but unfortunately in my Figma Mirror app the sound is not playing. Does anyone have an idea to fix this? Make videos smaller? User other way to display? The prototype needs to work on a phone. I feel like it plays a little bit smoother in the browser, but there’s still no sound and the search bar messes up the dimensions. I would be very grateful for any ideas and advice. Looking forward to hearing from y’all. Best regards from Germany Henriette
I’m trying to access the layers & assets panel but I’ve searched around and googled and can’t find how to view the layers and assets panel.
Hello everyone! I am trying to use the idea of component nesting but have encountered some nuances. Key aspects: A base (root) component is created which implements the layout details of the component, does not contain any styling; An instance of the root component is created and wrapped in another, parent component, which already implements appearance variations and other properties; Using the example of a button, I faced the following problem: I created a root (.Root Button) component that implements the layout of the button in different sizes and its children (icon, label). I wrapped this component into another component (Button) and created two button implementations - Default and Accent. The buttons have an icon and an associated property to replace the instance with another icon. When trying to use this button there is no problem exactly until the icon is replaced by another icon and a different size option is selected, in which case the icon colour is not overridden. On the on
Make changes to library Publish Go to other tab with open project No library updates detected Am I missing something? Should library updates automatically show up?
Hi. for a long time, we used a so called “Content” component, which contains a Headline, Text and a button. The button itself is also a single component, in 3 different sizes. With the latest Figma update, the height of the button it not changing anymore, if I change the button variant to “large” or “small” (if I use the nested “Content” component). The button itself works fine. Right side: Component with Button component Left side: Detached component (it works here). Top: Content with “default” button Button: Content with “small” button. Any idea if this is a bug or a (new) feature? Thanks!
Hi guys 🙂 I was wondering if there is a solution to my icon problem. We’re currently establishing a design system for a project, and we’re using the atomic design method (component in component). So we have these special icons that have a color circle and an icon inside. The eye icon is a component itself and I want to create a new icon (component) with the circle. I’ve tried to put in the fill in the original icon and fix the radius, but currently, it’s made out of an original eye icon and a circle. The problem is both of the solutions don’t work if I want to resize the icon (scale works, but we want to change the size in the frame section). The circle is resizing okay, but the eye icon stays the same size. Do you have any idea how to fix this? Creating size variants or changing size by scale is working, but it’s not the solution we’re searching for. We want it to properly change size by resizing the component. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
Hey guys, The text multi edit feature is absolutely grotesque, I am simply baffled. The number of errors and undos I have to perform because of accidental multi field editing is absolutely absurd.
Hi team, With the new multi select/edit text, when using this function across different breakpoints the fonts styles are being replacedto match the edited field. If the edit prompt field is in a desktop frame it will replace our mobile frame with the same desktop font styling. Is there a way to make edits to the copy without the styling being replaced?
Figma Prototype Issue: When navigating from Flow #1 to Flow #2 by clicking on the respective links on a frame of Flow #1, the left navigation menu does not update to reflect the change in flow (should go from #1 to #2 but still stay on #1 currently). This could potentially cause confusion for users, as the navigation menu no longer accurately represents the current flow being viewed. Already searched existing topics, didn’t find similar issue, please let me know if there are existing answers, thank you!
I have tried many suggestions. Images appear in Design and are well within the frame. Some show and some do not when in ‘Play’. Hope someone can help. Chrome browser.
I am making a website with different colour themes that correlate with different brands. There is a logo container in the header, and I have created a logo-component with logo instance swapping. This logo-component is embedded in the header-component. I want to know if there is a way to show the instance swap of the logo-component in the settings panel of the header-component. So that I don’t have to go into the header-component and select the logo-component to then swap out a new instance.
I think Im loosing the plot! Im new to Figma and have been able to search and find help on everything but this. Exporting image, still showing up grey on the border. Ive tried the suggestions in the forum, making sure frame is transparent, exporting as PNG, and making sure elements are locked in frame and NADA.
