Imagine a Figma page with thousands of text layers inside many frames. It will take half a day to select all those texts individually and Cntrl+A works only for a single frame. Is it possible to select each and every text element in that page. Im asking this because, all the text got strikethoughed and we dont know how it happened.

Just had the same thing happen to all the text within multiple instances and components within a specific parent frame on a page.

This is surely a Figma bug.

Okay, wondering if it might be due to this shortcut on Mac: CMD+SHIFT+X which applies the strikethrough text decoration. You find it under the menu in Figma > Text > Strikethrough

Easy to do when thinking you are using CMD+X to cut something.

I selected the parent frame and then did CMD+SHIFT+X again, and all the strikethrough formatting disappeared from the text elements within that frame!

So, not a bug, but a feature after all 🙂
