Globally disable content clipping

Hi, I just had to move a BIG Sketch project to figma, and it all works just fine, symbols are components etc.
BUT the Clip Content Option (I really like it) in this case drives me nuts. This project has so many symbols that are basically grouped elements that I really don’t look forward to go into every single one of them and uncheck the option for every group there is.

Is there any option to have this unchecked and applied globally? Didn’t found it yet…
Here’s just a small example of components I have to “unclip”:

And thats the problem:

This is really frustrating when importing large Sketch files.
I don’t think an option or plugin exists yet to solve this issue quickly.

Maybe you could edit this thread and move it to #product-ideas with a suggestion so folks can vote the topic.

I need this feature badly. Since i moved a very big file from Sketch.
Its frustrating to remove clip content manually

Here’s a quicker way to do it:

  1. Press CtrlA or ⌘A to select all layers.
  2. Uncheck clip content.
  3. Press Enter to select next level in hierarchy.
  4. Repeat step 2 and 3 until all layers are unchecked.
