Hiya new to Figma. Just wondering if say I have created a component set/variants and I want to adjust lets say the width of all the components within the set is there an easy way to do it? My understanding is that all variations within the component set can’t be an instance of it. I was just going to shift click all that I wanted to change but wondering if theres an easier way.

Wondering if anyone else has had this issue or knows of a solve… When I am trying to export frames as a PDF the color looks super orange and saturated. I have my color profile set to sRGB and occasionally when I’m exporting from photoshop in this color space I have the same issue. However, when I change my color profile to unmanaged I have the same issue in Figma. The color looks normal in the project but in the exported PDF is pretty significantly off. Thanks for any help!

Hey folks, I am currently working on a complex component that consists of nested components and Booleans. As the nested components have different states as well, I added variants to those. If I click on the surrounding parent component and want to swap the variants of the nested child component, it only allows me to swap the complete instance and not its selected variant. Please see this architecture sketch: Parent Component Variant 1 ** Child Component *** Variant a *** Variant b *** Variant c Variant 2 Variant 3 I find it much more comfortable to sort all of such similar components as variants. Is it still possible to swap them or do I have to make them separate components to do so?

Hello Figma Community, have anyone faced this issue, we have a library and colors in there, and one of colors accidentally appeared empty though other files using same library see this color asset fine

I have a checkbox component that changes to a “checked” variant when clicked. When I click on an instance of this component, I want to set a variable. But when I add the “on click” interaction to set the variable, it overrides the component interaction, so the checkbox doesn’t get checked anymore. Is this possible to do in Figma?

It is possible to create alias variables for Numbers, works great. Why not also for Boolean and String variables?

I have the issue where my variables are displaying twice in any menus when I have ‘All libraries’ selected. They’re listed once as local variables (no title) and then a second time as library variables under the files name. I thought perhaps I had some how turned the file on as a library for itself but if I had done that I would also have text styles and components being listed twice which I do not. The list of variables that are being presented as though they’re from an external library only update when I publish the library (which I guess is expected in an odd way but it mean if I mistakenly choose a variable from the wrong list it won’t update instantly, I’ll have to publish the file first before I see changes despite those changes being made in the same file).

Copying and pasting a component into two other components has unpredictable results. Both instances paste with “Fill” horizontal resizing (component has “Fixed”) One loses “Fixed” vertical resizing and has overrides to reset immediately upon paste Resetting those overrides recovers “Fixed” vertical resizing, but loses “Fill” horizontal resizing The other has no overrides, which means “Fill” horizontal resizing is not an override I can’t make sense of it. See video at Loom

I was given a .fig file: (The Weekly Picnic - Mobile.fig - Google Drive) and when I follow directions found here: Figma Help Center (basically creating a new design file and dropping the .fig file) I get the error: Files failed to import… Drop .fig or .jam files into the file browser to import them I’m on a Mac using the Figma application version 116.7.103 I was just given the file, made by someone else and I have no idea what version of Figma they were using. Any ideas on what might be causing the import issue? I searched all over the forum and none of the proposed solutions worked for me.

How to fix this? Turn off the snap or something?

As the title suggests, when attempting to change the background color of an overlay by selecting from my local colors, the cursor changes to the color picker and I’m unable to select the color. Is this a bug or am I missing something here? 😂

is it really still not possible to get a font preview when a text element is selected and I want to compare how a different font fits to it 🙈

when I change a property on a component in the DS and then I update the DS on a specific file, that same component will reset all the overrides for example: the names of a buttons, or the number of buttons… I have 5 in the DS but use only 3 in the design… why does this happen?

Hi all. Check the option “Plugins > Development > Use Developer VM”, but “Use Developer VM” is not marked with “ㇾ”. Does this mean that the Developer VM is not working? used ： Figma Desktop App version 116.14.9

what should be the width pixel value in Figma, if i want to show hero image 100% width and height on auto. I keep on mentioning to dev team in each meeting that we need hero image span the entire width seamlessly on any device. So, Instead of keep repeating this what exact thing I should mention on Figma, so they understand it without asking me?

Is there another way to format the green stroke on the left edge of the “Option 3” box so that it is rectangular like the stroke on the “Option 2” box but still contained within the rounded black edge?

I am trying to simply do basic prototyping but it doesn’t work anyone help where I did mistake?

Hi guys. I need help with creation of a component. I want the component to behave like this But, on different auto-layout options, I am getting the following results: Fill container: The text box is expanding to it’s limit even when the text is not enough to fill the space and the download button in the component is moving away from the visible text. But on adding more text, it is showing ideal behaviour. Hug contents: The download button is near the text, but on adding additional text the text box is expanding beyond the frame. Fixed width: The button is staying near the text, but the text box is not expanding it’s width on adding additional text. I need a way to apply both hug content and auto-width option at the same time for such cases.

I have a prototype for a user to click on an input field, enter an input with a keypad overlay, and close the overlay by making use of the close when clicking outside property. I would like to trigger a set variable interaction when the user closes the overlay. Is this currently possible? I have also tried applying a close overlay interaction to the parent frame on click along with the set variable interaction, but this doesn’t seem to allow the user to close the overlay by clicking away from it.
