@figma CHRISTMAS CAME EARLY Y'ALL!!!!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Some updates to variables! You can now bind variables to: - Individual corner radius - Effects - Layer opacity - Layout grid - Nested instances - Stroke weight Join our Q&A next week (Dec 13) to learn more → bit.ly/3tdjoRH

@arronhunt @figma Should be back up/live now!

@figma Has this rolled out? I’m seeing the other 3 updates but not this one yet.

#4: A new component modal and playground ✨ Clicking on an asset opens up a modal showing more component details and links to the main library. Users on paid plans will also see larger interactive previews. #LBUWeekly

@slava_uxd @figma It's a repair path for when you see bugginess w your instances. Once we have a fix rolled out usually it means newly inserted instances will be ok there on out, but this command can be help fix previously impacted, existing instances.

@figma What does repair component connections do exactly?

@figma @infin8x @james04321 Love this guide and how @figma works to make API integrations more accessible. Super like that it includes bi-directional guidance.

Step up your design systems game by using our variables REST API to sync changes between your Figma files and codebase (and vice versa). @infin8x, @james04321, and our extensibility team created a step-by-step FigJam file to get you started. bit.ly/3qFOr7r

@misaac85 @figma For #2, the link should be fixed! Tysm for flagging help.figma.com/hc/en-us/artic…

Hi @figma found some issues in your documentation for Variables. 1. In the documentation I can see there is a property in the number scoping for stroke width, but it doesn't appear on the platform yet. 2. There is a broken link. Screen-recording in the thread.

@dev_rolandi @figma Yes! You should be able to do this via the API (plugin or REST). We also have a basic import/export plugin code sample that you can use and get started via the Figma Github repo: github.com/figma/plugin-s…

#Config2023 launches bridge the gap between design and development, all in Figma. → Dev Mode, a new space for developers → Variables → Advanced prototyping → Auto layout updates → Font picker → File browser redesign Plus, we previewed the future of Figma with AI and announced the acquisition of @diagram. figma.com/whats-new

@incontrast @katiecooperco @figma Thank youuu! And we're working on all the missing features you listed #Coming_soon" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">help.figma.com/hc/en-us/artic…

@katiecooperco @figma seriously over delivered on this. I can live without text, grid, image/gradient and effect variables for a while. I'd take the prototyping enhancements over just plain old tokens any day of the week. Bravo Figma 👌

I don’t understand the tokens community complaining about the variables launch on Figma. Y’all have been begging for this and it’s a huge first step. Of course it’s not going to have every single bell and whistle but progress is being made. You’ve got to test and refine.

@elliotnolten @daniel__designs @figma Yay! Check out our variables in plugin API doc: figma.com/plugin-docs/wo…

I'm really excited about our new @figma feature, variables. So, I built a new plugin I call "Find Variables" to help you find where they're being used across your design. It will be free and open source once it's published to Figma community!

@ulrikstoch @figma We've shared plugin code samples on the Figma repo to help get you started with style to variables conversion! github.com/figma/plugin-s…

Is it me or is there not a way to create color variables from existing styles? I need to make primitive variables first manually and then use those in a token collection? youtube.com/watch?v=1ONxxl… @figma

@radley @figma You can also access variables via the plugin API (avail to everyone, but # of mode limitation will still apply depending on plan)! figma.com/plugin-docs/wo…

I’m a little confused about how to access variables in @figma. They’re available in any pricing plan. But to sync them in Github with development (like design tokens) we need to use the REST API, which is only available for Enterprise subscribers…? #variables" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">figma.com/developers/api…

@alexiadanton @figma Ding ding ding!!

@pseullah @figma This clue means that all times are good times to eat ramyun.

Solving the puzzles is one thing, but what do the clues mean???? Wrong guesses only @figma

@AndyHeyAdams @figma LAWL yes #2 we're launching a 24-hr noodle shop

Config is in 1 WEEK! Curious what features we’re dropping? 🧩 Solve 5 puzzles, get 5 clues– each clue corresponds to a feature we’re dropping at Config. 🧩 Click on any piece of the logo to begin >>> configteaser.fun

@vyshnav_xyz Any guesses? Wrong answers only! 😛

Solved the puzzle, but I don’t have any ideas on the features 😝

@figma Hohohohoho CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!!!

@HonzaTmn 😏

It’s kinda funny to see how smaller things like this are starting to bubble up in Figma’s UI progressively in last weeks before Config, preparing the tool UI for a (hopefully) some major improvements in prototyping features 👀

@andrei_iancu_ @figma @nikolasklein Wahoooo! FYI: We are gradually rolling out over the course of the day, so in case others don't see it don't fret, should hit you by end of day :D

I decided myself to check the @figma release page exactly today when they released the ability to reset the state of an interactive component. 🤯 For me, this one feels like is the config day - waited for it for so long. 🤭 @nikolasklein and the team 🙏 help.figma.com/hc/en-us/artic…

@rogie @miggi why wouldn't i know the name (all the names) of my speed-talking idols??? JK ROGIE I'M NOT THAT CRAZY/OF COURSE I GOOGLED

@pseullah @miggi omg sules...did you know the name off the top of your head, no googs?

Watching meeting recordings at 2x are the life-hack I didn't know I would get so much value out of. Also makes me super impatient during real life meetings, expecting folks to speak at the same speed.

@rogie @miggi John Moschitta Jr. FTW!!

@miggi @pseullah Sula reminded me of the micro machines dude from the 80s/90s
