I’ve got a large document in which I need to find and replace a particular phrase. However, when I go to use to use the find and replace feature, it says the text has been replaced without updating the text.
I have to double-click on the text frame again or select and hit return for it to update.
Is this a bug, or am I missing something obvious? Better hitting return, it reads the text as though it’s been updated even though it shows the previous text.
I’m having the same problem right now. I realized that the replace feature is only changing the name of the layer to match what you put into the “replace” field, but it doesn’t change the text in the UI itself. So that’s why it doesn’t show up again in your search results. Sounds like a bug to me.
I need to update a prototype with 20 pages with a text that needs changing around 4 times repeated in a page - quite annoying to find out now that it’s not working and I need to manually go update all these texts.
I find this weird because just few days a go find and replace worked fine. Was this after the Figma update that this started bugging…?
Having the same problem! So frustrating, as I have over 40 instances of this issue and will have to go through double clicking them all. Could be worse, I suppose. @Figma, this is a bug!
