Hi all I’m running into the problem of my text not changing if I change my component. Let me run you through the steps I’ve taken: I have a component ‘Wizard step’ with 2 variants for a step indication. Tested this, if I change my text and then change the variant, it remembers the text. Awesome so far. Now I make a component ‘Wizard flow’ with 4 of these steps, because I will use the steps on different frames and I want the texts and prototype noodles to be the same from all these frames. Now I use the ‘Wizard flow’ on my 4 frames. I override the variant of the ‘Wizard step’ to indicate which step is done or not done. Again, so far, so good. But now, if I want to change the naming of my steps in my ‘Wizard flow’ component. What happens is that it only takes it over in the steps where I did not change the variant of the ‘Wizard step’. In the frames where the variant was changed, the old text is still visible. I had a complex setup for making wizard steps with many more variants and nest
We’re experiencing a random problem with component overrides in our design system which consists of multiple library files. Our components use an atomic structure, where small individual components are combined (sometimes with overrides) to create larger components. The problem we’re facing We’re using some components in a design file and they have overrides applied to them. When a new library update is published, taking the new updates in the design file breaks our overrides. The component properties/variant selection is intact, even the value of the overrides are intact, however the instance would either loose border radius, or have its alignment changed or the layer name resets to the original name from the atomic component. This happens to some specific components, and not others. And this also happens randomly, sometimes some components break, while others don’t. We tried recreating the whole library from scratch with a few components to see if the problem persists, and unfortunat
i am creating a codegen plugin to generate code from Figma design. i would like to write some unit test cases for it? how i can do this using jest?
I want to make an animation where an user taps on an item, and it opens a slide-in with the item details like the pics I attached, but I don’t want the slide-in to come from the far edge of the screen, I want it to appear from the left of the “Order Details” frame. I tried making an open-overlay with move-in animation, but I can't figure out how to make it appear from anywhere other than the very edge. Also here’s a video of the problem with the prototype I made: Does anyone know how to solve this? Thank you!
Hi, I have been trying that cursor move(without clicks) makes video in background play/stop .Although I tried to apply mouse enter/move out in tiles covering whole space, but video keep playing once stop in a tile. It would be great to hear solutions. Blue tiles with mouse enter/move out interaction
I’ve been playing around with calendar-style UI designs lately and wanted to bring in an iCal-inspired layout. I found this use ical template free resource, which is technically for CapCut, but I’m curious if anyone has tried adapting that kind of layout or style into a Figma design. I’m hitting a few snags trying to recreate the spacing and structure visually without it feeling cluttered. Has anyone here tackled a similar challenge or have tips on clean calendar grid design in Figma? Appreciate any input!
We are having a persistent issue where our files look all messed up after merging a branch. A branch is reviewed and approved. All looks fine. It gets merged, and then whatever was in that branch suddenly looks terrible in the Figma file it is merged into. The components and layers appear resized and cut off, which can only be fixed by temporarily resizing them then undo-ing that action. However even after trying that, sometimes it renders incorrectly again and looks like a big mess. Is anyone else having this issue? Is the Figma team looking into this bug already? Thanks!
Has anyone had the problem lately of making design changes, but they aren’t updating in the prototype view? This doesn’t happen all the time, but when it does I need to refresh the prototype tab for the changes to appear. For example I just added a banner to one of my frames and the banner didn’t show up in my prototype until I refreshed the tab. I’ve also noticed it with smaller changes such as adding borders to elements, and the borders don’t appear. If this is a bug it could be affecting viewers of my prototypes too, who won’t always be seeing the latest version and won’t know it. Or there will be missing elements and the prototype will look broken to them. I use the desktop app so haven’t confirmed if this is a problem in the browser as well.
I can’t seem to figure out how to allow my component to scroll. The ! says it needs to be bigger than the frame which it is and no matter how many times I try to make it larger than it already is, the ! still doesn’t go away. I’ve tried restart starting the app and my computer but it still doesn’t work. Any help would be amazing, thanks
can anyone let me know
Hello, I’m preparing a presentation and wanted to use prototypes inside of the presentation, When working with it it all looks fine, but once I present a black outline appears. Can this be removed? In work When presenting, Best Regards
Hey Figma Heads! I’ve noticed that some of my icons have holes in the circles where they’re not supposed to (e.g., in images). Does anyone know how to fix this issue while keeping everything in a single vector and maintaining a consistent stroke size? It seems like the problem might be caused by the stroke breaking into negative space when overlapping itself. The last image shows what it’s supposed to look like. Any help would be greatly appreciated! How the icon is suppose to look like

How to change position of annotation. It would be better to show/hide annotations from context menu (right click, Same as hide/show comments)
In my team of designers & as a leader, I am the only one, who still haven’t received any Figma AI feature till date. Also, I have paid plan for my account.Perhaps all the other latest features like Annotations, measurements and FigPal is activated in my account. But I am so frustrated waiting for sooo long now.
a fractional value appears in the height of an autolayer when there are more than 5 components in the autolayer. The components themselves do not have fractional values. Binding to the grid in the file is enabled. What can be the problem?
Hello dear community, I’ve created a 30-sec prototype in Figma using smart animation. As I’ve seen that there’s no way to export any of that as a piece of JSON file from Figma directly, I had to re-create all those “smart animated” parts manually in Jitter, where I could export it as JSON. The problem began when I realized that Android and iOS couldn’t play those animations because I used SVGs for some graphics. Jitter offered to convert all SVGs to PNGs, and this workaround works only for the same viewport, which is not ideal, to say the least. The ideal solution for me will be to have the ability to export a smart animation from Figma directly in a JSON format. The second ideal solution will be to discover whether there is a motion design tool that supports Figma’s smart animation and is able to export the animation as a JSON format. The third ideal solution will be to discover a motion design tool that a) gives the possibility to re-create manually what I did with the smart animatio
I have shared our my presentation according to these instructions. The logic behind it seems totally lost: Client can’t open it through the direct URL (stuck as black loading screen) I can open it in any browser (in which I’m not logged into Figma) I can open it in an incognito window (in which I’m not logged into Figma) I can’t open it in on my phone (stuck as black loading screen) A colleague can open it in on his phone A colleague can open it in on his phone in an incognito window I’ve shared the presentation in Present Mode through the Share Presentation button. On ‘who has access’ I’ve selected Anyone. It is not password protected. I then proceeded to send the client the URL from the 🔗 Copy Audience Link button, with no luck. What’s happening here? Need to get this out asap and I’m quite lost.
Hello! With last update, it’s pretty difficult to select a branch from doc preview.When I try to do it, the list option disappears the most of times. 😅 It wasn’t a question… Just saying 🤗
I have a problem with the Type settings. When I click on the advanced options a blank widget appears. Do you have experience with this problem too? Thank you for your advice
Looking at the license types, two dev licenses have been assigned that I have never used and that I cannot cancel. I have a monthly subscription and I already have two users with full licenses. I have no option to cancel them and they appear on my billing. They have not been used nor will they be used
Добрый день! При генерации нового токена, кнопка Generate token неактивна. Как создать токен?
I created a slide deck template, added a 'table of contents' in the parent and attached links to individual title slides to individual sections of the presentation the idea is to have a ready file structure with a working, clickable 'table of contents' after adding all the slidesunfortunately, after creating a new deck and implementing the template, the links do not work I wonder if there is a way to achieve what I intended? RegardsJoanna
Hi, Im a single designer, with no team, and I have few files of UI Kits, so to be able to use them and for the instances to get component updates do I need the Pro plan ? isn't there a way in the free plan ? Or just the copy and paste way ? -- Kind Regards
I believe I first created an account on Figma for [redacted by forum admin/moderator to remove PII] about 2-3 years ago. Until recently I didn’t really use it, but now I urgently need it to start work on a client project that is quite time sensitive. However for some reason my account is not functioning properly and I cannot start any new projects. I keep getting the error: Limited access: To create new files, switch to a plan where you’re a full member. I went to my email to see if I could use the verification email from Figma I received in 2022 but this obviously wasn’t working anymore. I tried deleting the account so that I could recreate it with the same email but that didn’t work as I could not verify my password and I also cannot change my password as I don’t even remember it. So this basically means I”m logged into the account and cannot do anything. When I log into another account using my gmail [redacted by forum admin/moderator to remove PII] it does seem to work normally. Ho
