Just switched to UI3 and everything feels so foreign. Vague icons, lower contrast, confusing UX on old features, weird placement of things...I could go on… I used to be an expert with auto layout and now it’s just a nightmare to use... Please let us stay on UI2...
The “other” slides (those not displaying to the audience) should be larger in the speaker mode. Using it for interviews, it becomes really difficult to see the content of the next slides – what question / slide is next, when a specific question / slide sits in the deck.
Hello I,ve been recieving Figma montly payment on my credit card, I have not signed the premium pland and I have checked in enach figma account I have (all of the are free) what sould I do? I would like to request refund.
Within the past couple of weeks, I’ve had two design files where portions have started breaking, for lack of a better term. As you zoom in on the affected sections of the design, it blows up into square grid pieces over and over, rendering it unusable. This behavior does not affect the entire file, only parts of it. Some portions look/behave fine when zoomed in, but the affected portions do not. I work with two designers, and this only happens with one of them (so far, at least). I’m on Windows 11, designers on Macs. Latest release of Figma for everyone. What is going on?! ` What happens when I zoom into a design
Hi! My team exclusively uses Figma as the source-of-truth for implementation across various verticals: product, design engineering… We heavily rely on deeplinks to cross-reference other relevant files, flows, screens or resources to make the hand-off files easier to navigate for engineers. Our problem is, after clicking a link that leads to another frame in the same file, there’s no way to go back to the previous page: People need to manually navigate the file hierarchy and sections organisation to retrace their steps. Easy when you’re the person who came up with all these flows and know the file org by heart, but hard for anyone else. 😅 A floating action similar to the “Return to instance” button we have when shortcutting to a master component would be ideal. A keyboard shortcut to do that would be good enough. Any thoughts here?
I’ve built a component, added a bunch of instances of said component to my layout, and now decided to change one of the font styles in the component. So I go back to the main component, make the change and…nothing. I can’t get all the instances of the component to reflect the change. I also tried changing font size. Same thing. No changes to the instances of the component. Tried color. That works! I can change the color! But not anything else. Is there a way to force these font size/style to change throughout the instances?
I’m wondering if this is a bug. Sharing a ‘Presentation link’ gives the recipient a view-only view of the working Figma file along with notes. Makes sense if there are other presenters and they need to see the notes too. Sharing an ‘Audience link’ gives the recipient a view-only view of the slides. However, it also allows them – who will very often be a client – to click a button at the top to open a view-only version of the Figma file along with all of the presentation notes. Unfortunately, it’s currently not fit for purpose to share a link with clients, as there’s no way to send it purely for viewing without all the additional UI options to open in Figma and view notes etc.} Ideally, there needs to be a sharable ‘Audience’ view of the slides where all that can be seen is the slides – no extras, no ‘sign in’, no ‘add comments’ (ideally this can be switched on OR off), and definitely no ‘open in Figma Slides’. Just a view of the slides, and that’s it.
Hi, The addition of annotations and measurements to Design mode is such a great decision. However this is rendered almost useless if the annotations and measurements can’t be made visible to View Seat users. Often annotations are used for communication with a range of stakeholders, not just designers and developers. It’s not viable to upgrade every stakeholder to a Full or Dev seat to engage with this content.
Maybe on confused on how the feature works. If the team is using for ideation and keeping the master branch clean for devs and clients. When it comes time to push elements from a branch to the master file, currently it pushes the entire branch. This is pointless. We don’t want all the ideation, all the options, all the throw away work, just the version that we moved forward with. Currently we need to make a new branch we call “to be merged” and we need to copy just the artboards that are approved into the new branch then merge from there. This feels like to many steps and is complicated on a team of 4 designers. Shouldn’t there be an option to select just the artboards, components, styles, etc that we want to bring forward and leave all the other work in the archived branch incase we need to go back and grab something from it in the future? Pushing everything makes the feature feel useless because you’re either deleting all your ideation or creating “merge” branches to make sure you do
I like the new annotation feature on the design mode to add detailed changes, behavior notes, and even capture some question. However, I just realized some people didn’t see the annotations. It seems it’s because they have view access and not edit access. Or is it because this feature haven’t fully roll out? Can we let users who have view access of the file see the new annotation feature? It’s useless when adding those notes and people on the file can’t see those. Thanks!
Hi, I was given that I can add templates and various resources to the figma marketplace. At the moment, if I want to publish, I don't have the option to enter a price. Why is this happening? Oh, classic mistake, mine account is under gfwroom@gmail.com
Hi there, Is there any solution to this, what seems like a persistent problem of component instances not updating properly when there’s a color change in the main component. I’m seeing a lot of issues people are having with this. My context is, I have an icon button component with a nested icon component. The properties for the icon button have a dark variant, where the icon color is changed to white. The problem is, when using an instance of the icon button and switching to a dark variant, the color of the icon (white) is not following, but is shown as original icon component color (black). I have updated my nested icon component so all of the icons are in a single component with proper layer names and structure with only one flattened vector layer as instructed in many of the comments. The issue still persists. Thanks for looking into this issue and thanks for all your help!
Hey folks, I’m running into an issue and curious if anyone else has had the same issue. I’ll put it in a list just to keep things orderly: First, I make a change to my library, then publish the change Then I check the document it’s linked to, and check for an update. I see an update, but it’s actually a previous change that also didn’t go through. If I go back to the library and make one other change and publish, then return to the linked document, now I can see the previous change. This isn’t the worst thing, I can just be-bop things around and fake a second change to get the first to go through, but it is a little silly 😅 Has anyone run into this? Would you happen to have a solution?
Hey Figma community, I’m working on a project where I need to update text in my Figma designs programmatically and export images using APIs. Could someone guide me on how to achieve this? Here’s what I’m aiming to do: Update Text: Modify text elements within a Figma design using api or something else. Export Image: And export the updated design as an image file using api or something else. Example: Lets say there is a business card design in Figma and i want to update the name of customer in the card and export it as png using api call or something else.
APIs, guides, plugins, and more.
