Question
Bug Report: Component marked as modified after entering Vector Edit Mode without changes
Summary
A published component is marked as modified and available for publishing after entering and exiting Vector Edit Mode, even when no vector points or properties have been changed.
Environment
- Product: Figma Design
- Library Components: Yes
- Published Library: Yes
- Platform:Desktop App
- Browser/App Version: Figma Desktop App version 126.10.13[please insert]
- OS: MacOS
Steps to Reproduce
- Open a file containing a published component.
- Select the main component.
- Enter Vector Edit Mode so that the vector points become visible.
- Do not move, add, delete, or modify any vector points.
- Exit Vector Edit Mode.
- Check the component's publish status.
Expected Result
The component should remain unchanged and should not be marked as modified since no actual edits were made.
Actual Result
The component is marked as having unpublished changes and becomes available for publishing, despite no vector geometry or properties being changed.
Frequency
100% reproducible in my file.
Impact

Additional Notes
The issue appears to be triggered solely by entering and exiting Vector Edit Mode. No vector point
