Hi,

we changed from color styles to variables recently. We did this by creating a new library containing the variables and integrated a dark mode there. I manually exchanged all old color styles to the new variables out of the new library.

When I want to switch the appearance to dark mode I see two options:

I double checked that I don’t use any color styles out of the “Tokens (deprecated)” file. My components only use the new variables from the “Tokens” file. I actually don’t even understand why I can switch between “Light” and “Dark” within the “Tokens (deprecated)” set as there are NO variables in that file. 

To put it in a nutshell: There shouldn’t be two options to switch the appearance. Is that a (known) bug or did I miss something here?

Thank you for your help :)

Hey ​@Lucas_Hubner - on my end, I’m not sure if this is a bug, or if something is being inadvertently missed between old<>library. Unfortunately, I don’t have much visibility in terms of reviewing your files to pinpoint any problems, but I can get you connected to our support team who can.

Can I ask that you file a support ticket here?

If you could include the following info, it would help expedite the review process:

  • The name of the team that the libraries (both old and new) live in
  • The name of the filehs you use your variables in, that show the list options you see in your screenshot
  • IF POSSIBLE: edit access to the said files with support-share@figma.com. This is the official support email, and you won’t be charged for doing so.

Let me know once you’ve been to fill out the ticket form. Appreciate your patience!
