Variable are inconsistent when copying style


Mohammad_Amin_Zamani

we have used variables to style an object in figma (e.g. colors as fill, or numbers as auto layout and radius properties). when copying properties using ctrl+alt+c, its expected to style new object with variables, not static values. but figma uses detached variable values to style new object.

This behaves right when using styles, but variables cannot be copied correctly. so its annoying to set each value manually.

I’m also experience this as disturbing. Expecting the variables copied with the style.
