Hi all, I use video in my projects. Today I noticed no videos play in any prototype so I did some troubleshooting. Here’s what I managed to find: Issue Prototype does not play video in Figma app or Chrome but does play in Firefox. How to reproduce issue I’m using a 1.8mb video (1920x1080 MP4 xh265) in one frame in a new figma file. Example https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gNkH0iXg1_vJC8BLKVSW8UJdh_qQD5NJ/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gPncM4LRiKnSWtlHvehVpGRtSyFBB0xw/view?usp=sharing Actions taken to remedy issue which did not work Deleted APPDATA DesktopProfile cache. Updated NVidia Driver to latest video driver. Uninstalled NVidia and clean uninstall of video driver. Checked for latest version of Figma Restarted computer numerous times. Reduced size of video file. Hope someone can help me with this one!
Call me blind, but… Where in UI3 are the Boolean operations? i.e. Union, Subtract, Intersect, Exclude These used to be on the main toolbar.
Lots of posts about copying variables between files…but how do we copy variables between modes? I have a thorough set of variables with light and dark modes. Figma recently made it possible to apply variables to shadows. So now I added the variable set for shadows. However, it seems that I have to manually set the variable for each of the items in BOTH the light and dark modes. 🤬 Am I missing something? Does someone have a better process that I am skipping? How can I duplicate from one mode to the other without ending up with a whole third mode? This feels like missing functionality to me.
Hi there, I currently pay annually for four full seats on Figma, so I rarely check the billing section. However, I recently reviewed our billing and noticed a recurring £6 charge that’s been appearing for over two years for Figjam? I’d really appreciate some clarity on this, especially given that we already pay for full seats and should have access to the complete suite - including FigJam. At one point, we did briefly add a viewer, which temporarily brought our team to five, but they only accessed our boards a handful of times and didn’t interact with FigJam or other features so I’m confused as to why we’d be charged this. Could you help me understand the reason behind this charge and whether we’re eligible for a refund? Thanks in advance,Chansey
Are there any plans to enable communication with other tools / API’s etc. in Presentation mode? It would be super interesting to see such possibility e.g. using a new Action type, or just an extra “Open Link” parameter like “API”, “Open in background” or something like this. If that would be ever possible - it should be doable to communicate two different Figma prototypes with each other using kind of a Bridge app.
I want to integrate tiers into a my design systems model to provide a framework for managing the evolution and maintenance of design system components. Currently everything is under 1 master but I want to use the following information architecture for the tiering process: The top level is "Design System Library."The second level has two branches: "Core" and "Product."The "Core" branch has three sub-branches: "Stable," "Beta," and "Vision."The "Product" branch has a sub-branch: "Experimental." How can I create the second level branches using the top level? See attached IA. Please help. Thank you!
When I need to create a mask with the command CTRL + ALT + M in Figma UI3, the shortcut doesn’t work, I’ve already checked the keyboard, the shortcut itself, but it doesn’t work, I can just go manually through the properties panel on the right. Furthermore, when I do it manually, there is a kind of green demarcation where the mask was made. Does anyone know why, or if this is due to a beta bug?
If you go to the Edit variant property panel and try to grab one of the variants at the bottom of the list and drag it up, you will sometimes get the grab icon appearing in between items: Example of bug
I just restarted my Figma application and something weird is happening in a project that I’ve been working on for months. So in the first photo, it shows a screenshot of the button in the hover mode, but when I hover over the button in preview, it comes out as a square (second screenshot). It wasn’t like this ever and was perfect just an hour ago, but all of a sudden when I closed and reopened my application, it started glitching. The third screenshot is the screenshot when I changed the state to hover (which shows up how it should), but the hover animation next to it in preview mode shows up as a square. The fourth screenshot is the master component which shows the 3 states so I have no idea how it’s possibly showing up as a square in preview mode.
Hi. I’m having an issue with issue with frames that are meant to expand or “hug content” when switching between variants of different sizes. I don’t know what technical issue is causing this probably but I was able to verify it is something happening with Figma itself, and not my prototype, auto layout settings, etc. This is happening across multiple different components and only started happening today - however reverting my file version back to when I knew the prototype was working correctly did not correct the issue. B ut a developer that had never signed into Figma before opened the most recent prototype (without any changes) and did not experience the issue. For these particular designs it seems almost like the drop shadow is expanding like it should but the frame itself just isn’t. I have tried changing my components both to hug content and to fixed width and height just to further confirm it wasn’t something I was doing, but neither changes the outcome on my end or the developer
Maybe it’s just me, but I noticed something odd. If you have a component with two variants and connect them using Prototyping with the trigger set to “While pressing,” then preview the prototype—pressing it with the left mouse button works as expected. But if you also press it with the right mouse button while holding the left, the component gets stuck in that state and doesn’t revert back. As far as I know, that’s not the intended behavior.
Hi everyone, I just used Figma. I have a question about text, it doesn't show up on my screen while I’m typing. I've confirmed that the opacity was 100% but it still doesn't show up. I've also reopened the page but still doesn't work. Can someone tell me why??

Despite an extensive search coming up short, I am trying to determine if interactive components (like check boxes, dropdown menus, etc.) are available for use in Figjam. I have successfully created a dropdown menu in Figma Design but copying/pasting into a Figjam board doesn’t seem to permit the interaction with the component.
