Solved

I’ve discovered that if you create collections and up to 40 modes in a Figma Enterprise account, you can still use these modes in a free account (e.g., an agency account) even if the components were created in the enterprise account. I haven’t upgraded to enterprise yet, but I’ve tested this with the 4 modes available in the Pro tier, and it works. My question is: if I upgrade to enterprise and create more than 4 modes, will I still be able to use all 40 modes in a free account, even if I can’t create them there? Has anyone tried this yet? Edit: You’re copying the component from the enterprise file into the free file.

I’d love to be able to select 5 text fields and update them all to the same thing, without clicking into them individually. This is something that chews up a lot of my time when it comes to product or copy teams sending text updates.

A colleague of mine seems to have posted a lot of code into FigJam by copying from a Figma file (copy as code) and the file crashed. When trying to enter recovery mode it just tries to load but them gets stuck on loop and never fully loads so I can’t view version history. Anyone had this problem?

Greetings from a newbie! I cannot get a call to Figma.getNodeByIdAsync() to work. Could anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong? I have searched this forum and referred to a sample plugin go-to that uses this function, but I am still stuck. Below is my simplified code just for checking this functionality. When I run it as part of the plugin, console logs #1 and #2 are generated but not #3, and the console returns to the ‘>’ prompt. Thank you!

Hi all. The following arrow design was created. exportAsync() was used to retrieve the arrow image. The following image shows it. How do I get an image that is not missing?

I’m following along with the variant video, and I have made a basic component, but the “Variants” option is not available in my properties panel for some reason. My Figma is up to date (124.2.9). Do I need to do something to get it to show?

EDIT 2: on august 19, the problem still occurs EDIT: After updating Chrome problem seems to be resolved. Working with the browser app for few hours now and everything works fine. Since lately (3 days now) I experience shortcuts conflict when using Figma on Chrome. Using shortcuts like: cmd + shift + g; cmd + d; cmd + shift + h trigger Chrome actions instead of Figma actions, but only when my cursor is in the context of a sidebar, e.g. after expanding layer’s content and trying to expose a hidden layer found inside. This is HUUUGE problem since there is no other (simple) way to select a hidden layer without using the context of sidebar tree view. I havent experienced problems of this kind before and now its ruining my productivity. Please, help! I use Chrome and Mac Sonoma (14.4.1) on Macbook pro M1

Hello, I am encountering a difficulty that I had never encountered before the new version of Figma: I have a component (an image), which has 2 variants. It is integrated into another component which also has 2 variants (a default, and a rollhover). When I change my image (the variant), it cannot “keep the good variant” on the hover. I’ve never had this problem before. In image to explain better, sorry for my english 🙂 Here is my first component, a coin image, with 2 variant of it, one silver and one gold. Here is my second component, with my coin nested, it had also a variant, where i just move the coin position, and the relation between my two variant is just a simple hovering effect. If I try this, it works perfectly. But now if i change the nested component “coin” from silver to gold : it doesnt work anymore, because the over effect “load” my silver coin instead of the gold. I have never had this “bug” before. Any idea why the hover version doesn’t keep the gold coin

Hi community, i have a question regarding “selection colors”. Is it possible to access and change the colors of figma.currentPage.selection[0] in order to change all occasions of “color x” to “color y” with one change? So I don’t need to access every single child element and change its color there. Thanks in advance 🙂

Hello please, can i have the new updated Figma ui3.

I have a frame with three identical symbols inside: As far as I can tell, all three layers qualify to be “matching” according to this article. However, when I press either the button at the top, or the shortcut, I get the message below: I pulled out this frame as an example, but I obviously have a larger design I’m working on where I would really benefit from being able to select all matching layers at once. I feel like this used to work but doesn’t anymore. What am I missing? I’m still on the old UI. Can’t really tell when I received the latest update…

I m unable to find this control in the newer UI 3

I set the element width to fill in an automatic layout. When I change the direction of the auto layout, the element width becomes a fixed width. I have to set the width of the element again. I hope that switching the direction does not affect some of the settings of the original element, otherwise it will cause a series of extra work.

Hi everybody! I’m a teacher at the university and I’m helping my students in signing up to Figma with Educational plan. What kind of document/file should they upload in this form? (“Class schedule” is generic, especially dealing with differences in universities across the world 😉 )

I found “save .fig” but that saves it locally. I do not know how to save a file to the cloud. I am ready to share it but it’s currently “untitled” and there’s no “save” in the menu. Command+S does not attempt to save or add file name. I assume it’s currently saved and autosaves, but I feel like sharing an untitled document looks bad. Also I’m fery annoyed there’s no UI for a basic save, even Google docs lets you know when something is being saved

Unable to access a secondary account to retrieve files. The email address used for the account has been deactivated, I do not have access to it, or able to forward from the address or reset password to it.

I’m not sure if I don’t know how to use the ruler in the new Figma UI or if it’s a bug. I searched about it and tried a lot of ways and couldn’t get the ruler to work in the new Figma UI.

I am getting this error when I try to install Figma on my laptop. Please help!

I followed the tool’s suggestion to throw my drafts into a team/project and now I can’t find them, just over 1090 projects, what should I do?

Today I updated Figma desktop version and after updating I was not able to access the design files. The popup error was “YOU NO LONGER HAVE ACCESS TO THIS ORGINIZATION” switch organization to use Figma. But I am using free version. How to solve this issue. It would be great if someone help me out.

Ayuda, se eliminó de forma inesperada una archivo. Al entrar al link me sale lo siguiente: Es posible que este archivo se haya eliminado movido o no esté disponible. Es de mi propiedad pero nunca lo eliminé, tampoco esta en archivos eliminados

I have a set of variables defined in my design system and also published. When setting up properties in a separate project file, I’m able to bind component properties to those design system variables, but when I go into the prototyping area to set a variable, I only have access to local variables. Am I missing something, or is this just how it works? Maybe it’s a necessary limitation since multiple projects interacting with the same set of master variables could do weird/undesired things, but I’ve not found any documentation to indicate that published variables are intentionally not available in prototyping.
