Previous highly conveinient way to resize an element into grid increments (multiple of 8 for instance), is to click and drag on the “W” and “H” of the dimension settings, while holding shift. This is not possible anymore?
I’m currently building a website using Figma Site, and I’m trying to make a button redirect to an external URL (e.g., https://google.com). I’ve set the link properly in the button settings, but when I preview or publish the site, clicking the button does nothing Has anyone experienced this? Is there something I might be missing, or is this a bug/limitation of Figma Site? Would really appreciate any insights or solutions. Thanks!
Recently, I develop a figma plugin to use with my system and service. I need request api of back-end which requires cookie that stores in figma. But when I try set “Cookie” in header of a request, I get error that chromium dose not allow javascript to do it. So now I have no idea to send cookie to back-end, what can I do? I do not want to change my back-end suck as jwt for auth.
Hey Folk. I’m trying to export a frame in Figma which has noch images, just text, forms, blurry layer…When I export this frame, the file size is around 18MB and I don’t get why? I’m creating presentations with Figma and when you’ve 50 Slides… Do the math… Any help here?
Some quick context: I recently created a basic Figma slides template. After using the template & theme to create an actual presentation, I identified some new slides that I would like to include into the original template. When copy pasting the slides that used the template into the original template file, it created a duplicate template with the same name for the slides that were pasted in, even though they used the original theme of the template. The main issue I have here is that when swapping the template to the original, it randomly shuffles the colors. So I have to adjust the entire slide. I feel like updating templates over time based on real usage is pretty common, and the current behavior makes it rather awkward. Thanks!
We have build are own design library. We use this one for all our prototyping. If i use the library there are style variables that i don’t reconize. The file i’m working in, doesn’t have any style variables so it isnt ‘created in this file’ . I think there is an component in the library that doesnt uses our variables but variables from an other library. How can i find that component, zo that i can fix this?
Hi guys, Figma didn’t really used to be like this, but now it feels very laggy and has a huge delay between the user’s action and the result. Even a simple drag has a huge delay, I attached a video, check the time distance between the mouse dragging and when the dragging actually occurs. It’s ridiculous. Is there a way to solve this? EDIT: the lag is not actually in the movement itself, it’s in SELECTING THE ELEMENT. If the element is selected, it moves nice and smooth while dragging, but after clicking an element it literally takes almost a second for it to get selected. I’m not sure how to show that in a video, but it’s insane how annoying this is becoming. Thank you :)
Hey guys, I don’t use masking too often, but everytime I use, I am baffled about the lousy UX :)) I mean it’s like nobody gave a flying !@#$ about it :)) The mask has to be underneath the masked object. Totally opposite to any form of logic, especially since the mask is alwas smaller than the masked object, so selecting those two has to be done by clicking/dragging over the area to make sure both are selected. That can be a pain in the butt if you have many elements on the frame, and then you have to rely solely on finding the elements in the assets panel. Good lunk with that :)) If you mask an object, you have to probably group it afterwards? Otherwise, if you wanna move it, you’re just moving the masked object behind the mask, while the mask stays in place. Makes perfect sense????!!!! If you wanna edit the mask you have to find it in the assets panel, no click/hover will help you in that situation. I can probably come up with more, but overall it’s such a crappy experience, in total
I’m trying to use Figma MCP But keeps getting server error 500 when using get_image
I know that I can export as SVG from draw.io and then drag and drop in FigJam but this does not allow me to edit. I would like to import a flowchart from draw.io in an editable format. Thanks.

Our team is part of a larger organization, and all our Figma files are in one Figma Team for which I am a team admin. We have some Default Libraries set for the entire team, but need the additional ability to set Default Libraries for specific project folders. I’m not seeing the settings to do this right now.
Im working on a plugin which sends data back and forth using postMessage’s between UI components and the Figma API. Im essentially sending entire frames and their design elements. I’ve seen when I choose a design with many elements, that it’s running very slow and freezing up the UI until the work is done. How can I optimize this? Any and all inputs are greatly appreciated.
Hi folks, I’m trying to create a prototype which allows me to toggle a layer visibility on and off using a ‘Hide’ checkbox which sets a boolean variable (applied to Blue box layer appearance ). In the file, I can hide the blue box when checkbox toggled on, but I cannot show the blue box when toggled off. Here is prototype: Show hide layer Am I missing something really simple here? Any advice appreciated…
