John A. would you be able to provide any kind of screen recording of whats happening? Hard to know what the issue is without a visual. Testing it out and things appear to work fine.

it worked last week so not sure why its doing this now. Did you update something? Did Chrome or Figma update something? Its part of our process now, so having this issue effects production.

John A. yeah we made a major update to everything earlier this week to support style guide builder export. You can read more about it here: https://www.relume.io/resources/faqs/why-can-i-not-use-the-webflow-app-with-my-style-guide-version And we have some updated videos here: https://www.relume.io/resources/series-videos/introduction-getting-started But basically you have to start your projects from the figma kit - the last thing in your video that you opened - was the kit - all you had to do was open that open then open the plugin, in that file and you would have been golden. Starting from an empty file is no longer possible.

Nvermind, I figured it out. man that UI is terrible

yeah so in that file, open the relume figma plugin, and then import your sitemaps/wireframes

yeah its backwards now, kinda. Always hated how Relume imports to Figma very clunky. To be honest if your product was shit I would of left long ago. I really like the site map functions as it saves me so much time.

glad you are still providing support, I was loosing confidence.

we had to drop support for importing screens into an empty file, to support style guide builder export - we needed more predictable results but yeah I understand your frustrations here

all good, just needed to know how the new process works. Glad this is resolved, like I said I really enjoy using your product
