Strange Figma bugs. The right menu does not respond. You change 1 color, and all the project colors change to red. It is NOT possible to change the fill, transparency and dimensions and much more. The desktop and online versions do not work the same way.

I’ve experienced these recently as well. I will also add:
When you’ve changed a type style or a variable that effects a type style’s values, when playing a prototype it randomly displays the older type style, even though it’s been fully updated in the file. The only way I’ve found to get around this is to delete the frames that aren’t playing properly and duplicate a frame that is playing properly, but this is time-consuming and tedious.
Restarting the prototype or restarting Figma haven’t helped.
Hey there!
Thanks for flagging this. This looks odd. Is it happening in a specific file or any files? Do you see this issue on browser, desktop app or both?
If this is happening only on desktop app, can you please try to clear out the cache?
Mac OS
You can clear the desktop app cache on a Mac in the Help menu under Troubleshooting. If you’d prefer to manually clear your cache you can:
- Quit the Figma desktop app
- Open Terminal.app and enter the following command:
rm -rf "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Figma" - Try opening the desktop app again
Windows
You can clear the desktop app cache on Windows under the toggle-arrow at the right of the top toolbar under Help > Troubleshooting. If you’d prefer to manually clear your cache you can:
- Close the Figma desktop app
- Open the Start menu, and paste in this, followed by enter:
%APPDATA%\Figma - In the window that opens, delete the
DesktopandDesktopProfilefolders if they exist - Launch the desktop app again
If this doesn’t help I’d suggest you to reach out to the support team with a quick video recording when you encounter the issue and please mention the steps you have done by filling this form: here
