Text function suddenly not working in Figma Design

For some reason, the text function in both Design and FigJam suddenly stopped working. I can’t seem to edit and write any text nor even change the font styles.

Please Help! It’s interrupting my workflow

Hi there - thanks for reaching out to the community!

I’d like to get more context to help troubleshoot. Is it happening on browser, desktop app or both? And does the issue occurs in a specific file or any files?

To cover some basics, I’d recommend you to close any Figma tabs you’re not using

  • Browser: If this is happening on Browser, can you specify in which browser? Please try to force-quit and open Figma in a new browser window. (More information on the browser configuration)
  • Desktop App: If this is only happening in the desktop app, we suggest that you clear the cache on the Desktop app. Here is our guide to do it: here, then force-quit the Figma Desktop app and restart it.

If this still doesn’t help, I’d suggest you to reach out directly to the support team by filling out this form: here
Be sure to use your Figma email account, including the URL of the files affected, and please share a video recording of the issue you’re encountering so the support team can better visualise and understand your issue. Thank you!
