I’ve had some luck by adjusting the name of the original component in the library and then repushing the update.
I came back to give everyone an update. The bug described went on for another week or two after I posted this but my workload changed and I didn’t use Figma or the component library for a few weeks and when I reopened it last week the issue is now gone.
I don’t really know what the disconnect was. I see throughout the comments above some have found workarounds with renaming or believe there is a connection with hidden layers or when there are conflicting properties. Maybe all and any of those situations cause this issue? I hope others who posted here (that are in their files more often than I was) can come back and let us know what they found to be helpful so new people can have a set of things to try and resolve it.
Thanks for sharing everyone.
Same frustrating issue. Successfully publish the library but no updates in the design file available.
Not a solution, but having some success with closing/re-opening Figma…even then only works intermittently
Same issue here as well @Figma_Support
The issue appears to be a visual bug. I discovered that all my changes come thru; I just don’t get the snack bar with the Review and Dismiss CTAs. If you have the same problem, I recommend you create a test component or style in your Libary file and push/upload the change. Go to your design File the Libary is linked to and search for your new custom component. I did exactly that and discovered that not every change gets a snack bar notification.
I have this issue today September 1st, 2022.
Is there a way to force uploading the library?
Same here – can’t publish update changes.
@Figma_Support it still seems to be happening to others. Is there any more information about this bug or how to fix it from Figma’s side?
I just updated the category - I think I selected the wrong one because there isn’t a general bug one. It’s been moved to ask the community for now unless I should put it elsewhere.
Any updates on this? I’m struggling to publish an update to my design files from my library.
Same here. Library Update is successful, but in design file no notification to Review/Dissmiss-CTA shows up.
Has anybody found a possibility to pull the Library-Update from the design file instead of pushing it from the Library to the design file?
The strange thing is that it works normally with two out of three files, but with one this problem occurs. I can not trace what the reason is.
It seems to be an inconsistent issue that is difficult to reproduce but is happening broadly enough that it’s impeding work. I wonder if there is any known bug for this? @Figma_Support - are you tracking?
Same issue here, really frustrating
I was changing the hex codes on a main color component, but keeping the color name the same, when I published the library, the colors were not updating elsewhere.
Troubleshooting:
changed the name of the color neutral-1 to test-neutral > published it > accepted it in the new files > the color & name updated accordingly
i went back to change the test-neutral to neutral-1 > published the hex value under the proper name > accepted it in the new file and voila!
It is concerning on this thread, as well as others reporting fairly major issues / flaws with the software, how little response there is from @Figma_Support
For what it’s worth, I was able to remedy the issue by force quitting Figma. Annoying but it worked after reopening for me.
These few days are the same for me here – can’t publish update changes.
Same here - this is uber frustrating. Basic expectation, no?
I had the same problem and was now able to solve it by chance. For me it was that I had unlinked labels in the “properties” channel. After I deleted them, the components were displayed in the assets panel. Maybe this helps you.
