When updates to components with text in them come out, it wipes out all the custom text! If I restore from an earlier version, screenshot images that are fundamental to the design come back at low resolution making it a multi-step process to restore the text
. Either do a fiddly re-insert of new screenshots or copy the file, go to an earlier version to access the text and then copy back to the original file. Ugh.
Wish I could at least detach all instances with one command. Currently I select all the frames, command+option+b to detach, enter to go down a level, command+option+b to detach, repeatā¦
To avoid this, I need to detach all instances in every file.
Check out the plugin named āInstance finderā it will help you select all the instances on a page, then you can use Cmd+opt+b to detach them all
or try the plugin called āUnused componentsāā¦ I found it just now, so not sure of drawbacks & limitations
const detachAll => (node) {
if (node.type === āINSTANCEā) {
node = node.detachInstance();
}
if (node.children) {
node.children.forEach(c => detachAll(c));
}
return node;
}
Hi,
Let me give you some context.
- I perform most of my work in a āWorkingā Figma Page in a Project,
- I tend to end a week with a UX review of the Working Page. Gather Feedback.
- I duplicate the page I was presenting,
- I Rename the duplicate with the date, and it becomes a cut, (I donāt want to automate this process).
- I would like to disconnect all components from the duplicate page I just cut. making it a locked file that will not be changed when I update the components.
- I have hundreds of elements pointing to my local components and find it difficult to select all when I have components within components.
So I would like to disconnect the duplicate page from the design components. I am not using a library because things are changing.
Anyone have any idea?
