Figma Slides - Slide dimensions wrong when presenting

Ask the community

Hi!

I’m experiencing an issue where the slides won’t display at the full 1920 x 1080 dimension when in present mode (both when presenting just the slides and in audience/notes mode). We also can’t change the dimensions of the slide itself, so not sure why it’s presenting at a size that don’t fit the default dimensions? The biggest option seems to be the “Macbook Pro 16” at 1728 x 1117px which cuts off a lot of the slide.

I’ve already tried troubleshooting (closing tabs, quitting and restarting Figma, and restarting my laptop) and still can’t present at the full dimensions.

Included a screenshot and video - would greatly appreciate any help/insight! Thank you!!

Thank you! I have the same problem. The dimensions Allison_Woo mentioned are 1920 x 1080, which I suppose is the MacBook Pro.

I am using a MacBook Air with the dimensions 1440 × 900. And real size becomes much smaller in Slides full screen presentation mode. For example, iPhone 12 screenshots that have real dimensions of 340 x 735 become 254 x 552 in Slides full screen presentation mode.

Would love it if this could be fixed as soon as possible! Thanks. :slight_smile:

Hi @Allison_Woo @CJ_S ,

Thanks for the patience! Our engineer confirmed it wasn’t expected and this is resolved yesterday. Could you reload the tab and check if it’s back to normal?

If the issue persists, please feel free to let us know!

Thanks again!

Hi again! Hmm I don’t see how it is fixed? A screenshot from my iPhone, imported into Figma, get the 100 % dimensions of 340 x 735,79.

But when pasted into Slides it becomes much smaller, only 254.5 x 551.74.

Best

Hi! Im also having this issue when presenting in presenters view. the dimensions get smaller and you have to scroll around the slide which is unusual. Has anyone found a cure?

I’m having the same issue. Here is a screenshot. This only happens when trying to present with notes.

Making a completely new slide deck and copying over the slides solved the issue for me now. Creating a new slide deck by duplicating the “bad” slide deck did not work.
