Best way to swap applied styles with variables

Hey, I’m stoked to see variables in Figma and immediately recreated our color style system as variables (the Styles-to-Variables-Converter Plugin worked like a charme).

So far so good, but how do I swap the applied styles with the new variables in my component libraries? Do I have to go through each page and swap them manually? Like so:

Is there a way to swap applied styles with variables for an entire file?

Any help is highly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Hi @Freddy,

While a few plugins currently allow you to convert styles into variables, I can confirm you will have to manually assign these new variables to the right elements/layers if you want to fully swap them from styles to variables. There is currently no automatized way to do this (just yet).
