I’d like to hide(with the eye icon in the Layer panel) styles of a layer(such as fill or stroke), but Figma only supporting hide layer styles which detached from style library.

I hope we cloud hide styles without detaching them.

Why I need this feature?

such as normal/hover/click with differ bg color, I’d like to hide or reopen the fill/stroke style when needed with out detaching them from created styles.

Once a color style is used for a fill color, you cannot toggle its visibility. The only option is to delete the fill entirely or detach from the color style.

Figma is all about linking and keeping styles up to date. The way this works actually prevents that from happening if one needs to turn off a background on a component. Anyone else? Saw one other post with no responses.

Suggestion: When an element has a fill that utilizes a color style component, one must detach the fill from that color style in order to hide it.

Proposal: Simply add the show/hide eyeball next to the color style in the fill section

Why: When build out components and refining designs, it’s very common to hide and show fills based on the context of components. Breaking the fill out of the predefined “color styles” then creates problems down the road if another designer begins working. The fill should always stay linked to the fill.

Attaching a quick GIF to illustrate.

It’s intensely annoying having to detach a color style for visibility toggling.

Adding to this thread – this is a simple but important addition as there is currently no way to toggle visibility while maintaining color style connections, it’s one or the other.

This should be voted more. It’s a repetitive task having to unassign the style just to hide and having to reassign when you want to unhide the fill/stroke again.

Hi. I opened a topic because it also does not work for variables as well… I find it quite limiting too. If you could take a look at it and vote as well so it works for both styles and variables Ability to toggle visibility for styles and variables. I would appreciate that, thank you so much!

This would be really useful.

It is frustrating having to detach a style just to hide a fill or stroke.

This has also been documented in these posts:

Fill color styles: allow us to show/hide color styles rather than detaching/deleting only

Show/hide function for color styles & variables

@ Jon_Landis

Yes please!! This would be very helpful when trying out whether a style is suitable or not. It’s much more annoying to have to go and search for that style again, especially if you have an extension library.

An update has not been done yet but we still would like to have this option. It’s very unpleasant to always detach a variable and apply it again if it suits.

I find this also incredibly annoying not to have, especially as I experiment with different styles. We should be able to add styles, toggle them when testing, and delete unused when happy with the design. This is particularly an issue when using design systems with a huge library of styles that you have to search through every time you want to reapply a style

Я даже не знала о том, что у Figma существует форум по обсуждению функционала. Однако, когда я стала чаще использовать стили в своих проектах, я осознала всю сложность и абсурдность ситуации. Мне, как и неоспоримо, большинству других дизайнеров, просто необходимо иметь функцию для скрытия параметров, заданных стилем. Хотя бы возможность скрыть/отобразить цвет обводки и заливки элемента, когда этот цвет задан стилем
