Hey! So, I have buttons in my design system file, where if I can the icons in a button, and then change the variant for the button (filled > outline etc), then the button preserves the icon overwrite.
But when I used the same button in a product file from the design system library, the changes are not preserved.
The structure of the button is this:
- Variant
- Icon-size
- Text
- Icon-size (a variants, with the same icon, but in multiple sizes)
- Icon-instance
- Vector
- Icon-instance
I think the issue here is when I change the icon in the button, Figma changes its name to the instance’s name, so when after I change it to another button variant, it sees it as an instance conflict, and resets the overrides, but then I don’t understand why is it working in the design system file.
I’m still investigating different options, structures, but so far I didn’t find a solution. Any ideas?
ps. I wanted to share screen records in the post, but the forum doesn’t allow me to share media as I’m a new user. Figma, really? I mean, I have a team subscription and everything, what do you think what I’m going to share that can’t be allowed, cat videos? Mehh.
ps2. nor links. great.
