Hopefully someone can help me. For the last several days I have been having an issue with one of my components in my shared component library. I have been actively making changes and publishing them to the shared component library to use in a separate Figma file. Both the Library file and the separate file have a blue icon under Assets > Updates for this one component. The grey update button doesn’t work. When I click it nothing happens. The blue “update all” button simply dismisses the window, but the component update notification is still present.

asset button issue


I have tried



  • deleting and restoring the component

  • renaming the component

  • updating other components and publishing all changes to the library

  • closing and re-opening Figma

  • restarting my computer


Any thoughts on how to resolve this?


Also, another weird thing I observed… most of the components in the Library file are in the “Local” component list. Why are some listed separately when they are from the same file?

TIA

Thank you! Problem solved!

I had unlinked properties as well. I solved all of them but the problem still occurs. At the moment, the only “workaround” is to restart the Figma app. After the restart the dialog for review and update of the component (small black box at the bottom right of the UI) pops instantly up in the design file, like the usual behavior we all know. By the way I use the desktop app on a MacBook Pro M1 with macOS Big Sur 11.5.1
