When switch modes (‘desktop’ to ‘mobile’) all ‘link’ text resets to the default. Im using a text string to control the modes.

These things are taken into consideration:

  • Layer names and hierarchy match
  • All elements have a text property 

🧩 Table
       ↪️ list row
              ↪️ Label ✅
              ↪️ Value ✅
              ↪️ link 1 ❌ text resets
              ↪️ link 2 ❌ text resets
       ↪️ list row
              ↪️ Label ✅
              ↪️ Value ✅
              ↪️ link 1 ❌ text resets
              ↪️ link 2 ❌ text resets
       ↪️ list row
              ↪️ Label ✅
              ↪️ Value ✅
              ↪️ link 1 ❌ text resets
              ↪️ link 2 ❌ text resets

Does anyone know why this happens?

Hi ​@Carioca_Andre, thanks for reaching out! 

This is a known feature limitation that our engineers are working on. I'll add your details to our open bug report, so they can take note of the ongoing impact.

We don't have a timeline to provide for when this might be resolved, so we apologize for the effect this may cause in the interim. In the meantime, we've found that this is less likely to happen if you use fewer layers of nesting, or remove text properties from the main component.

To be transparent, it may need some trial and error to find an approach that clears the issue. If you’d like our technical quality team to take a closer look at your file and provide more specific guidance, please feel free to reach out to the team here: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
