Sorry, the title is wrong. I can’t update it.

I have a problem where the text in the component and its instances doesn’t update when I change the font weight in the text styles.

styles does not update to reflect changes made to the component.

 

Steps:

 

- I created a button component, and the text in the button uses text styles

- The font in the text styles is linked to a variable

 

Issue:

When I change the font weight in the text styles, the button text in both the component and its instances doesn’t update.

Note: this issue only happen when the font is linked to a variable.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I'm checking with our internal team. I think I could reproduce the issue, so I passed this along with our internal team. I will get back to you when I have anything I can share with you. 

 

Thanks for your patience.

Thank you for the feedback. I hope it gets fixed soon, as many of us are using variables for the font name

@y_toku cool thank you for the updates! but, I got another issue. When I detach the text styles in the component (the text styles using Variable font) and change the font weight, the instance doesn’t reflect the update.

After detached
