The period still works, but the underscore doesn't?

It does work with sets of variables, so why isn't it retained?

Hi ​@David Riveres, thanks for reaching out! 

To hide an entire collection of variables from publishing to team libraries, you can still use prefix the collection name with _ or .

To ensure that I understand correctly, you’re only having issues hiding a collection of variables using the underscore? If so, do you have an example file you can share with our team, so they can investigate this further? https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
