I have updated my figma local but its still not working :( what do I need to do....

[Striffly]

3 options :

• Check the package that @Tanza3D built in their PR.
• If you're on Arch, you can also install https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/figma-linux-dev-git.
• Or just build the dev branch by yourself

Make sure to completely close Figma and then restart it for the bug to be resolved after installation (I didn't do that properly yesterday haha).

Thanks a lot @Tanza3D For those using nix, I've created a very minimal flake which builds the application from source with the fix https://github.com/adityarsuryavamshi/figma-linux-nix/.
It's a very bare-bones version, but hopefully is useful for someone who is stuck.
After the release you can switch back to the official version in nixpkgs.

@Striffly Oh my, this is very technical... still couldnt have it worked. I have updated it and selected the edge version as it is the latest one on the app center for figma, and still no success.. I will just wait for the official updated package release from @ChugunovRoman
