How is this even possible, and why is it happening?


I have about 5 files, and 2 of them serve as the main sources for components and variables. For the past 3 days, Figma has been randomly deciding which variables to export to other files and which ones not to.


As a result:



  • From one file, I can only see 2 out of 40 necessary variables.

  • From another file, no variables are being exported at all.


This morning, I created 4 new test variables, and guess what? They immediately appeared in all the other files. But the critical variables I actually need are still not updating!


Where is support? Why hasn’t this issue been resolved after several days? This is paralyzing the entire team’s workflow!

If you copy your Variables across the file, they automatically hide…

Figma, please change this, if I want to hide my variables, I want to make it manually, not automatically.


You have 0 support level. No thanks
