While using UI3, after selecting multiple instances of the same component, properties controlled by a toggle do not indicate that there are mixed values within the selection, but instead show as “all on.” Switching back to UI2, the same selection shows the “mixed/partial” selection state for the toggle.

According to the below articles, it appears that it’s not possible to build a plugin that auto-runs and runs headlessly (no visible UI) without showing a running progress bar spinner, is that correct? Article Reference https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042532714-Use-plugins-in-files Running message when trying to run operations after running figma.ui.hide() If this isn’t possible today, I think it would be a really useful feature that would unlock a lot of new workflows interacting with other apps and hardware that doesn’t necessitate having a UI dialog up and running.
Hello everyone, I’m having some issues with Figma Slides when trying to present both in presenter and audience view. In particular, the “smart animate” slides transition doesn’t work in the audience view but seems to work fine in the presenter view. I already tried to restart the presentation, open it in the app and on different browsers, I just can’t find a way to make it work. It’s driving me crazy, I’d 100% prefer to not view the smart animations in the presenter view rather than in the audience view.Do you have suggestions for solving this? It’s for my graduation presentation, I need to use 2 screens, one external for the audience view and my macbook screen for reading the notes in the presenter view:(
Hi F i g m a Team, I’d love to request support for N a t i v e M a c O S N o t i f i c a t i o n s in the Figma desktop app. Currently, notifications only appear within the app itself, while the mobile app does a great job of utilizing native OS notifications. This creates a bit of a disconnect between platforms and can make it unclear where users should expect important updates. Supporting MacOS’s native notification system would bring the desktop experience inline with the Figma mobile app and allow users to receive alerts even when Figma isn’t the active window. More importantly, MacOS provides robust notification preferences, giving users full control over how those alerts are displayed—whether silently, persistently, or not at all—based on their individual workflows and needs. Native support would significantly improve visibility and responsiveness to things like design comments, file updates, or collaboration pings. It’s a small change with a big impact in terms of usability and
Alright, guys FigPals were the best (and weirdest) thing to come out of April Fools’ this year. They follow your cursor, help you design, and love you unconditionally… maybe too much. 👀 But here’s the problem—they’re only available for April Fun Week! 😭 We can’t let this be just a one-time joke. FigPals deserve to be a permanent feature (with a toggle for those who don’t want constant companionship). That’s why I made a Change.org petition to show Figma how much we want to keep them! 👉 Sign here: https://www.change.org/p/make-figpals-a-permanent-figma-feature Let’s make sure our tiny, slightly obsessive design assistants don’t get deleted forever. #KeepFigPals 🩷🐾 mr bonky mr bonky
I'm facing a strange issue. As shown in the link below (just an example), the hover state of the icon is not working in the bottom-right corner (inside the red dotted box). Everywhere else, the component behaves as expected. What could be the root cause?
I can't believe Figma is forcing this change on us. UI3 is, without a doubt, the most unfriendly design possible. It has made my workflow painfully slow and incredibly unproductive. What’s the harm in letting people CHOOSE which UI works best for them? I always thought switching to UI3 was a HUGE mistake, but I never felt the need to comment on it because UI2 was still an option. Now that you're FORCING this change, I have to speak up. This is NOT an upgrade. It’s a downgrade in usability, efficiency, and user experience. Figma was supposed to be about flexibility and user-centered design—so why ignore the feedback of those who actually use the platform every day? Give us back the choice. Let people stick to UI2 if they want. This forced migration is a slap in the face to long-time users who built their workflow around UI2.
We are on Organization plan. We need to transfer a team to another external Professional plan account. Do I need to transfer the projects one by one from the team? Thanks!
Like with Google Slides, the canned animations that one can apply in Figma are not particularly useful in making more complex or impressive animations. Powerpoint is the gold standard there, allowing for path animations and timing based on a real (ish) timeline. Since it seems to allow some animation in the non-slides interface already via Lottie, (and would be nice if one could use embedded animation-commands inside the SVGs like with JS or SMIL) It seems as if this might be able to be ported to slides. Then, I could make complex lottie animations via BodyMovin in AE, animations in Rive, or directly in Figma and be able to ditch GSlides and Powerpoint both.
Please correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t believe there’s anyway to disable the snap to grid with a keyboard shortcut. Typically in programs I’ve used, you can disable snapping by holding CTRL or ALT. Since ALT has the functionality of duplicating the selected item, it would be nice if holding CTRL then could be used to prevent items from snapping to the grid when dragging them. Thank you +1
Hello. I am having a huge problem getting a very basic function of Figma to work properly. No one has answered my question on here, Reddit or anywhere and it’s holding up my entire case study/portfolio/career! I would be willing to pay someone to help me with this one problem but I don’t even know where to go for this. Has anyone else had luck getting paid professional advice?
This screenshot shows a split-screen view. I often work with different Figma files in split-screen mode, and it gets frustrating when I open the Variables panel to edit something, only to find that the “Close” or “Cancel” button in the top-right corner is not visible. The panel doesn’t resize to fit within the split-screen or other adjusted window ratios, making it cumbersome to close or navigate without manually resizing the window each time working with variables panel.
Same issue here, M3 Pro mac / desktop app. Never had lag like this in Figma. Cleared cache to no avail. Seems to have started after a recent update in the past week or so.
This is the first time I’ve encountered this issue, but for some reason my hover effect isn’t working as it should. I’m creating a navigation sidebar (icon + tab name) and created a component with a default, hover, and selected variants (very straightforward). But for some of these tabs, only the text name changes and not the icon. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? In these screenshots, it shows the home tab working properly, but when I hover over notifications and all the other tabs beneath it, it only changes the color of the text.
