Hi, I duplicated 2 files, a library and a design file. The new design file is obviously still attached to the previous library. I want to attach it to the new library. Everything is still exactly the same. I open the library panel in the new design file, add the new library to the file and detach the old one, then I click on “swap library” in order to replace components and styles in the file, but I get this error ID: ba6fb6fe90044b46a5917a85bf89e636. Did this happen to anyone else? If yes anyone found a solution? How am I supposed to swap my libraries if this doesn’t work, I tried more than 20 times over the week end.
Hi everyone, since the last update I’m experiencing issues with the copying of images into other frames. It seems like the image isn’t stored in cache. Does anyone know how to fix it? Best, Finn
In the current implementation of Figma’s Version History, timestamps are displayed in relative terms such as “25 days ago” or “1 month ago.” While this provides a general indication of when a change occurred, it falls short in scenarios where users need to locate a specific version tied to an exact date or time. Proposal: To enhance usability, I propose the addition of a tooltip that reveals the full date and time when hovering over these relative timestamps. For example, placing the cursor over “25 days ago” could display “17 June 2025, 14:43.” Although this solution may not be exhaustive, it would significantly improve the user’s ability to identify and retrieve specific versions with greater precision, all without disrupting the existing user interface.
TL;DR: Changes highlighted in version history snapshots. Scenario: I am working on a file with other designers and want to know what someone else did in the same file. I can pull up older version history, and see that someone else worked on the file on any date, but other than doing a visual comparison against a version that I worked on before to spot differences, I don’t know what they did. That leaves lots of room for missing something… As a collaboration tool, it would be very helpful if Figma did something similar with the history snapshots that a certain company (that rhymes with “poodle”) does with their Docs free online document editor. In the the case of Figma, when a collaborator looks at a snapshot in the version history it would highlight things that were changed in that version. It does not have to be every minute change so much, but things such as highlighting a layer that had changes made to it. Highlighting new frames that were created. Then bringing the screen focus to
It would be really nice if I could just search the version history to find specific saves, instead of having to scroll through the entire list. This becomes especially annoying if I have a lot of versions saved and am searching for a very old one. Search / Filters that would be nice: text search date filter creator filter
Hi, I have this issue in multiple Figma files. If I move frames with comments to another page, the comments still appear on the original page whenever the file is opened. The comments only disappear when navigating to the “moved” page and navigating back. This is really cumbersome because often the page in which frames with comments are moved to is a very large page which takes a long time to load. Also, engineers who are working off of the original page get confused about the comments that were moved and are not relevant to them.
In Figma’s playground file for the (beta) AI features, there’s a hands-on example for the AI feature called Replace Content. It sports a (vertical) auto-layout frame with two similar objects. When you select the frame, a wide handle appears on its bottom edge (in the instruction called the Duplicate Bar) , offering the option do drag up and down and add multiple instances of the same object(s). It looks and works a lot like the Repeat Grid of Adobe XD – the only featured I missed now and then in Figma, so I’m a happy camper now ! 😄 The feature works very well, and the obvious next task of replacing the repetitive texts for uniquely generated dummy texts, also works very nicely BTW. But how did they get this Duplicate Bar to appear ?I can’t find anything about it in any Figma Help resources. Just this tidbit in the beta AI example. So I tried and tested it a bit, and it seems to me that you need at least 2 by 2 elements: 2 elements in one group or auto-layout, copied or duplicated into
I’m sure that the page is extended to include the entire design content of my pages, but when I publish, some of them are fully viewable and others I can’t scroll to the bottom of them! Sometimes it’s just a little bit, and other times it’s a good 200px worth of content. I’ve tried different browsers and it’s consistent across them.
It would be a great idea to add the ability to move annotations (сhanging the place). Right now, they’re fixed in place and can overlap other elements. And you cannot change it.What I mean is the ability to reposition an annotation freely while keeping the link to the target object intact.Annotations are a really useful feature—thank you! Previously, I had to create similar functionality using my own objects. Please do not move this offer to another discussion. 🙏 Can we move the Figma Annotations (in dev mode) from one Figma project to another? These are different questions.
It’s just very bright, and I’d like to get some work done at night without killing my eyes. Please add dark mode. FigJam especially, but it’d be nice throughout. Yeah, just remember the user likes a dark mode, and make dark mode the default for everything: your website, this forum, Figma, …
I have text styles defined inside a library file. All my components are using these styles. When creating the designs using the components and styles in another file I always make sure to use the text styles and if I paste text I use Shift + Cmd + V to esnure I’m pasting text without any formatting (verry annouing tho). Recently I was just going thorugh already done designs to check something and noticed that all the text layers in some of my pages are with the correct color variable, correct size and etc but they have no text style attached to them. Now I have to go layer by layer, copy the text, click Reset all changes (if it is a component) and paste the text. This is rediculous. So few questions: Is there any way to make the default pasting of text be without any format? Is there any bug that caused this dettachment? Is there any way I can only reset the style of the text layer inside component instance and not the text color and etc?
The recently introduced fill patterns do not seem to be correctly saved in styles: They are not editable (cannot select a new pattern object, and the toolbar does not show the pattern tab) When exported from a library, using them in another file results in displaying dots (presumably the default pattern)
I’m not able to select into the text layer to make text edits. I’ve read previous discussions from a few years where people have experienced the same thing. It might have to do with the mouse tracking speed change, but I tried adjusting that as well. Would anyone have updated solutions? Thanks!
Very low performance speed in Figma Make when the thread reaches large sizes (currently 230+ iterations). All actions in the chat area occur with a significant delay (typing, scrolling, etc.), making it impossible to work. However, the prototype itself works well within FM. Has anyone encountered this? What could be the cause? Could it be related to the power of the laptop?
Double-clicking a text layer won’t let me edit it. The layer is not locked. This issue seemed to be resolved in past for other users, but the solution has not been mentioned in the thread. I am first time coming across this issue. Please guide.
I created a new Slides template, but I’m still only seeing the default stock slides in the “New slide” dropdown. I’m not sure how to remove those and add my own custom slide layouts. I’m also unclear on how to create or edit a template style, including setting custom colors and text styles. The deck defaults to the “Light Slides” style, but I don’t see any options to edit or add a new template style. I’m on a company plan and appear to have full access to Figma Slides. Any help appreciated.
