Option to duplicate/copy styles, not just cut them

I have also done this trick. However, when you do this, there is a chance that when you reload the original Figma file, the style will be missing. This has happened to me several times.

Haries, this also happened to me several times, it was precisely the reason I opened this topic, I lost several styles and had to recreate everything again, I contacted Figma support about this but received a response that they were unable to reproduce the error, so I came here

how is this not a thing already???

I couldnā€™t believe that this feature is missing, given how much Figma advocates its ability to help us create and manage design systemā€¦ Likeā€¦ seriously?

Please add this to your next software update. Thanks!

The solution is this plugin to copy/paste style between files.
Works with any type of styles. Colors, typography, effects and even grids styles!
