Hello everyone,
Since the last Figma update, I can no longer copy the text of variables (such as color codes) and paste them elsewhere on the page while keeping the variables panel open at the same time. I have to close the panel if I want to paste the text. As far as I’m concerned, this is a bug.
Thanks for pointing this out. Our internal team is aware of the issue, but we can’t guarantee when it will be fixed. For now, you can right-click and select “paste” as a workaround to paste onto the canvas.
I’ll merge this into the existing topic so we can track it together.
