Figma breaks the font width. Why does it happen? When you click on the font itself, it becomes wider. The file was created a day ago, new fonts were not installed or downloaded.

Probably Figma didn’t find the first font you used before and replaced it to another on click.
Make sure you still have installed it on your computer. If you use Figma in browser, make sure Figma font installer is running.

It may happen because of font conflict mostly. For example, font in your PC system was replaced, or you installed another version of this font, or Figma stopped seeing it for some reason.

What font is it? Can you show screenshot of how it looks like before and after?

Definitely looks like a font version conflict. The higher one is an old version of Raleway, but the lower one is new, which you can find at Google fonts and in Figma as well now.

Probably you downloaded and installed the older one some time ago and used it yesterday, but today Figma somehow didn’t load your local version of Raleway, but replaced it with the new one from web.
