SOLVED - Preserve Scroll Position (please roll back the feature)

Hey, i face a bug since there has been an update on the preserve scroll position behavior yesterday. By now the former preserve scroll position, which i had to set manually before is now set as default. So i don’t need to tick the box anymore.

But, in my protoype, although i expect now that the scroll position is preserved by default, it is not working correctly. From screen to screen my prototype is jumping to the top. I need to ship my proto today to the client and this is super annoying.

Anyone faces the same issue since yesterday? @Figma_Support can you roll back the feature? 🙏

I am seeing the same issue, very annoying, has broken prototypes that were working perfectly.

Tried the same naming of frames as suggested and it still doesn’t work!

Please, please provide a fix asap!!

Same issue here. Frames have identical names and highlighted. But scroll position does not preserve.
Please fix it or roll back.

Only works if EVERY frame is the same. And I don’t like using frames within my designs (ie: button, dropdown, etc). Only for screens.

Why would you make this functionality only work if every frame is the same? What if I have 100 screens/frames in a prototype and instead of. wanting to link the screens on the design board, I’d rather choose the screen name in the prototype dropdown. I can’t do that because EVERY SCREEN HAS THE SAME NAME!

Try this.

  1. Artboard should same file name.
  2. Uncheck reset scroll position
  3. Link your page
  4. Good Luck!

@Figma_Support This is a disaster!! Roll back “preserve scroll position”
This new feature is not working at all. Have tried all kinds of tips and trix.

Honestly, this bug really sucks. Prototypes in general are buggy recently (noticing this over a month). I would really appreciate fixing this as soon as possible.

@Design Yes, if every page in my design is in a frame and has the same name then it works but that doesn’t make any sense to have it function that way.

Agreed, there’s clearly a bug here, no scrolling state is preserved with the new state management feature despite naming frames the same.

I’ve tried everything, as it seems everyone else has!

Please fix asap
