Reorder variable collections list

my god this is killing me, i recreated collections, and it randomly sorted itself again. FML i really need this feature. 😡

Fix this please, broken feature since release.

+1 i need this, my team needs this! (;

I am not using some of the collections just because of this. Come on guys, fix this please.

Honestly this is so annoying. Figma started as the design tool that preached ultimate freedom but when it comes to adding basic features the disadvantages of closed source software show. 314 upvotes and counting but people can only scream against a walled garden for a feature that takes less than 10 lines of code yet would strikingly improve the UX for a small yet growing audience of people working on design systems.

How is it possible that such an important basic functionality like sorting is still missing… 😭

I need this also. Please add it.

How is this still not solved? The original post is over a year old and this would be such an important feature improvement. It’s incredibly tedious adding colors to elements atm. Logically, if you are working with variables / tokens, you will create your primitives first and then assign them to the specific color tokens. Then, in the product I will almost always exclusively use the color tokens, to enable use of light and dark mode, etc… So what would be the point of sorting the color variables by order of creation?

OMG more than a year and this bug has not been fixed. How is it possible that the collections can be sorted in the variables board but when they are seen in the library panel they cannot be arranged because they follow the order in which they were created? Please fix this once and for all.

Came here hoping to find a solution to the annoying ordering of color variables in the styles panel, but it appears this problem has been around for over a year with no solution. I will echo what many others here have said: there needs to be a way to manually adjust the order of color variable libraries in the library panel (which you can do with styles right now). Or at the very least, the variable libraries should appear in alphabetical or numeric order. Having them appear in the order in which they were created doesn’t make any sense and is down right frustrating. My team will not be able to use variables in the library panel until this is resolved.
