Selection colors swapping

[Jasper_Van_Der_Kamp]

1. Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this
   ‘Selection colors’ are very usefull for quick changes in the whole component. What I miss, is the option to swap 2 colors. For example: I made an primairy button with a pink background and white tekst and now I want to make a secondary button based on this style. I just want the background to be white and the tekst to be pink (and a pink border). I just want to swap these 2 colors in one click instead of changing both.

2. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.)

3. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation
   (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc.
   What do you guys think about this idea? Anybody also ‘struggling’ with this?

I too wish we could do this !

This one would be so helpful!
There’s already a swapping option between a border color and a fill color.

Hey there,

I’ve been working with a lot of icons and tags in my designs recently and many times I find the need to switch two colors in an object. Let’s say, for example, I have a grouped object composed of a black rectangle and a white icon inside of it. When i select this grouped object, if it is composed of only two colors, it would be great to have the option to switch the colors with one action; have the rectangle be white and the icon black. It’s a small thing but I found I’ve come across this case several times and it wouldn’t hurt to try to suggest it!

Thanks in advance!

1. A lot of time, I want to swap colour text and background, and current we need to swap the colors by reselect a colour.

2. In Figma Design, what if we can add a swap colour between the two colours?

3. Something like in photoshop, able to toggle the colour between background and text. what do you think?

This ‘tip’ is getting more and more popular Would be so handy. Thanks for this great example. Hope Figma will see our comments

I’d love to see this as well. Actually mocked it up myself before searching and finding this topic but here’s my take for good measure anyway

Good idea. I’m swapping colors quite often and thinking about making a plugin that could make it easier. But native features are always better.

This would boost productivity a lot!

I want it to work in a little bit more advanced manner:

I want to be able to match and swap styles based on a part of a style name, for example:

Match all: “primary”
Replace with: “success”

Match all: “dark”
Replace with: “light”:

Sometimes I need to replace many selected colors, but the difference is only one segment of the text style name.
