Cannot Apply Boolean Variable to Variant

I was following this video tutorial and it seemed to have exactly what I needed. However, now that Figma has been updated to a new UI, this section of the tutorial no longer applies. How can I do this in the latest version of Figma?

Simply changing the variant’s appearance with a Boolean value is not a viable solution right now.

Hi @Preston1

I’m not entirely sure what you’re looking for, so I have a few questions to better understand your issue:

  1. I watched the section of the video you linked, but I didn’t catch the part that no longer applies due to the new UI. Could you clarify what’s changed or no longer relevant?

  2. From what I understand, the tutorial demonstrate how to update a component’s state using variables. If that doesn’t align with what you’re looking for, perhaps this might not be the right tutorial you need. Could you share more details about what you’re trying to achieve, maybe with some screenshots, so we can better assist you?

I had the same issue yesterday, but creating a regular variant property did work. If you just give it boolean “values” it should turn into a boolean automatically.

For more details on the issue :

Then it’s impossible to find in the actual component/variants, you can’t apply it.

Also doesnt work in UI2 if I revert back.
