Might be similar to:



But in my case it can be reproduce in a very very small context e.g. a draft thus it is not resolved (at least not for my situation).


I have a button component (created via cascading component style - link to an article of this style is within my draft)


When using the Button anywhere in my project all is fine, but when I use it within another component the hover interaction resets the label value, thus instead of showing e.g. “Add to Basket” it shows “Button” while hovering.


To understand the Problem or to see the issue I created a draft where everything can be inspected. The issue is critical within our project since the component where we have this behaviour is critical for the application (and thus critical for many usability tests that have been planned)


Here the link to my Draft. Bug reproduction


I hope anyone has a solution for this or a workaround since I am unable to fix this in our project or the draft.

Hi Marcel, Thanks for flagging this! I appreciate you sharing the file and providing detailed information.


I’ve tested it on my end, but so far, I haven’t been able to reproduce the issue. It would be great if we could diagnose exactly what’s happening here, so would you mind contacting our technical quality team directly from here?: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360001744374

Please include the Bug reproduction file for our team to investigate further.


Thank you,


Hey Junko3,


Thanks for investigating the issue.


As you suggested I used your link and contacted the team directly. I have also added a video of the Bug in action within the prototype.


Hey Marcel, Thanks for reaching out! I confirmed that we received your ticket in our system (ticket#: 891738). Appreciate your patience in the meantime.

Thank you,


Update here:

Figma Support has looked into this and gave me an solution. I haven’t been able until now to verfiy whether the proposed solution works - but it did.


So in my case I had to select the Button component’s “Base” Layer which was the very first component in the cascade. And then use (through CMD+P) “Select all with same variant”. Then I clicked on the “…” menu next to the component icon in the design panel.

There you can find the option “Reset Label property”, which I used then.


After that I was not able to replicate the issue so this approach solved my case.


Thanks again for the Help!
