Hi, why can I not change the shape of a picture anymore freely without using a mask? It was so easy to do before, where did that design option go? I would really love to use it in THAT simple manner (not masking pls) Also can we turn back the previous UI maybe?
I just upgraded to Profesional (full seat) so that I can, among other things, take advantage of the video feature — adding one to the workflow — and despite FIGMA taking my money and my profile now showing the blue “Professional” badge, the feature is NOT working. It’s still saying I need to upgrade. I tried the browser version and refreshed that at least 12 times, closed and re-started the desktop app at least 6 times and finally shut down and re-strted my Mac once...NOTHING! Worst of all, I submitted a support ticket (##1380952) and when completed, it showed me a summary at the end that said “Status: solved”. How can it be solved without anyone even looking at it or contacting me. So you take my money and then instantly tell me that my problem is solved? What a complete RIP-OFF!
When I use Figma Sites, fonts in the build view looks fine. But when I use Preview, some fonts default to arial. I’m using the latest version of Figma Desktop for Mac. Authoring View - Montserrat Semi Bold Preview - Changes to Arial Bold The fonts are loaded on my system.
I am stuck with UI in dark mode and Figma background in light mode making the sections all dark but background ssuper light. It is jarring to say the least.
I’m struggling to configure projects in a way that lets Figma keep components synced between designs and the design system without destroying its performance. Is there any way to improve Figma’s performance while working with components? I watched their video, and they didn’t mention anything about addressing this issue. It feels like we’re being pushed into a setup that will be costly to change later on.
We work in a large company with over 100k employees and have very strict rules on how to share content with clients. What we are missing are advanced sharing options for “only-view”. Sometimes, we want to share content as a ‘view-only link’ with the client to receive comments and feedback directly on the artboards. Other times, we want to share as a ‘view-only link’ but without the possibility for viewers to leave comments. This crucial option is currently unavailable for us, and it would be great if this feature could be added to the sharing options. Thanks! 👍
Problem: I love annotations, but having to select a category and property each time with my mouse is painful. It’s the main reason I have stopped using them - by creating my own annotation, I can just option + drag to create a copy of an annotation that has the category or property I’m looking for, and skip a step. But this is also not ideal. Solution: Let me add annotations without having to take my hands off my keyboard after I click on what I want to annotate! Suggestions: Default categories and annotations based off of what I just did Smart suggestions for annotations or categories Shortcuts for assigning categories or annotations Slightly more complex shortcuts for initiating annotations (such as: 1. Shift+t to go select the annotate cursor 2. Press and hold shift to duplicate last annotation category, then click 3. Press and hold option to duplicate last annotation property, then click 4. Press and hold shift and option to duplicate both ) After Shift + t, Click + hold to see cat
I have a foundation figma file with unpublished and published variables and collections. I am trying to apply such variables to another file with two ways: Importing the foundation file library to the file i am working on. With the command await figma.teamLibrary.getAvailableLibraryVariableCollectionsAsync(); i do get only the published collections so i do not have access to the unpublished ones. Using figma rest api endpoint GET /v1/files/:file_key/variables/local i get all the variables and collections but i cannot import the unpublished ones in my working file, so i cannot apply unpublished variables to the working file’s nodes. Is there any way to apply unpublished variables to a file through figma api? the weird part is that through figma ui the user can apply unpublished variables. Something goes wrong when trying to do so via code.Thanks in advance!
I have searched for this answer in the forum, but haven’t been able to my situation represented yet - so here goes: I am a design manager who needs access to all projects in my company, but do not want the notifications for all projects. Currently I am unable to find, either within the Mac desktop app or the we app, where within a specific project there is an ability to turn off notifications (currently getting both a pile of emails, as well as Slack notifications in our generic Slack integration- not channel specific). Any help to turn off one project notifications would be greatly appreciated!
We have a library of tokens with subgroups. token has a scope setting (like text tokens shouldnt appear in the list when user tries to select background color token etc) Scope setting works however empty groups are shown in teh dropdown (see screenshot, border tokens are not available): This behaviour is pretty annoying! Can you please hide grouping when no items available in teh group.
I just updated Figma today, and for some reason. in some frames that I work in I cant Drag select the objects anymore. None of them are locked and I can still click select them one by one.in other frames I can sometimes still drag select. If I rebuild the ‘broke frame’ in a new frame it becomes broken aswell. here is a video of the issue *Edit*There is a Huge Section just above these frames, when I zoom out more, I can select again. when the frame is too close to the section and zoomed in very close. issue happens again When moving the Fram further away from the frame everything works again
Right now in Buzz if you give someone a template and want to let them swap out an image, they can only Upload an image from their computer to “replace” the image, OR drag in an image from a library from scratch, but it won’t replace the existing image. Uploading an image from your computer is a good way to replace, but we want to give content editors a library of images to choose from that we curate. Ideally in this view there would be a Library icon, and then we could choose a photo from a Library to replace the image. This feels like a big miss compared to Express, which handles this much better.
Hello! I'm experiencing an issue with a component that includes a right-aligned gradient frame. The gradient has a variable applied to its width and is set to fixed positioning. When the component is resized for a different breakpoint by switching to a different mode, the gradient’s width updates correctly based on the variable. However, its position shifts inward and it no longer stays aligned with the right edge. It appears the resizing is anchored on the right side of the gradient, causing it to shift inward rather than staying aligned with the component edge. Steps to Reproduce: Create a component with a gradient frame aligned to the right edge. Create at least two modes and add different width values in these modes. Apply the width variable to gradient. Set the gradient to fixed positioning (right). Resize the component via mode switching. Observe that the gradient shifts and is no longer flush with the right edge. Expected Behavior: The gradient should remain fixed to the right e
Around 2–3 months ago, Figma links to slides and frames used to be shorter and cleaner. Now, when you copy a link to a slide, frame, or object, the URL is significantly longer and more complex. 🔍 Example: Before: https://www.figma.com/file/abc123/My-Project Now: https://www.figma.com/file/abc123/My-Project?type=design&node-id=44%3A2920&t=abcd1234&page-id=44%3A2919&mode=design Can I copy the shorter link?
