To effectively manage variables we need a way to search and highlight where they are used. It’s very difficult to keep track mentally where they are used while testing different options.

Yes! please add the search! Why is it missing in the first place?

A big yes for that feature. I can’t imagine that Figma won’t offer this feature in its very next releases

Hello, can you add a search bar in Variable, because it is now widely used for naming tokens, so there are many variations. It’s very difficult to search and edit without a search bar.

I wish there was an easy way to sort local variables alphabetically per mode instead of manually moving them around one by one.

Are you able to apply a search function under the selection color of a file. Below is an example where we have like areound 50+ colors in a frame/mockup and no way to search fast the color/s you want to replace or update.
