Multi-selection doesn't work anymore ever since the "Multi-Edit" update was released

add opportunity to select all same layers in frame where layer is, with multi edit we cant select same instances in frame, only selected layer in other frames

this is because you, the same as i, tried to find all instances in one frame by clicking multi select option, but this option work only for selected instance if it is in any other frame, but do not find same layers that is inside frame where selected layer in. this is a flaw in the Figma

Hi!

Same here, I can’t use the " Select matching layers" within a frame (which I think is something expected and I’ll love to be able to do it).

ah. Yeah, I completely misunderstood the intention of multi-edit. I was anticipating that the new cmd+opt A shortcut would just select ALL occurrences. I don’t know why we wouldn’t want that. That said, “Select with same variant” still does the job.

I’m a bit confused. What kind of fix was launched for this? I haven’t noticed the behavior change.

Please bring back the old functionality. This has massively slowed my productivity.

Holding and dragging Command + Shift to select nested components within different frames no longer works. Massive disappointment.

Hey @Jon_Thomas, sorry for the confusion!

The fix was for the issue flagged in the original topic:

“I’m trying to select multiple difference objects within a frame. Previously I could hold shift and click on the different elements I wanted to select. Ever since this multi-edit feature came out, I’m no longer able to do that.
Does anyone know how I can get my “multi-select” back?”

The team launched a fix to bring back multi-selection.

Hey @Shawn13,

When was the last time you refreshed your tabs? The team launched a fix for this two days ago.

I refreshed my tabs and restarted the app entirely yesterday and I’m still not getting a fix for this.
