How to remove / manage document colors?


Tim2

Hi, I’m new to Figma.

I’m searching for at least an hour by now, but there doesn’t seem to be any documentation for this simple problem: How and where can I remove or at least manage / change my document colors? I have some default colors in there, but I’m really struggeling to find any settings or library for them.

And where is the difference compared to local colors?

Best answer by Tim2

Ok it seems to have something to do with my component frames / groups? The dashed outline was somehow violet?

Can you show the screenshot of what colors exactly you want to edit/remove?

Here you can see the color violet for example. I’m not using it at all in the document and I have no clue where to delete / remove it.

Yes, variants container uses a stroke which is not some kind of special property but a regular customizable stroke.


document colors are those we place outside of the frames. Remove color from there and it will be removed from the document colors also

Is there an easy way to change the document colors without opening every frame?

Select all and use Selection Colors in the right panel

Hi! I did that previously to clean up stray/extra colors. But when I look at the document colors there are still random colors that are used. They are turned off or nested. Is there a way in Figma to select the document colors to recolor them easily? I found a plugin called Find and Replace colors that I am trying out right now
