👀 Announcing a big change for Figma Tokens users: I’m rebranding my plugin Figma Tokens to "Tokens Studio for Figma". It’s been in the works for a while, and I’m excited to finally unveil that change.

Work in progress here at @GitHub on a new way to render core views, tables, and lists. Got ideas or early reaction? Reply here.

@juergengenser @figma @TokensStudio As for two people working on the same report: should not be a problem, but if they are performing changes at the same time they might want to work in branches to make sure they dont override each other's work. How would your ideal experience look like there?

[Jan Six @six7]

@juergengenser @figma @TokensStudio Yes the current optimized flow is to treat TS as the source of truth, not Figma. There is an Import functionality but it's not meant to continuously import things into tokens. Is your prime use case to just have your variables synced to code, but manage with Figma's UI?

Graph Engine breaks you free from tool restrictions. If you can imagine the logic, you can build it in Graph Engine.

@efedorenko I learned a ton from listening to @syntaxfm and doing a few of @wesbos courses - the biggest learning comes with building and iterating on your own projects though. Being curious helps.

[Jan Six @six7]

@pururin @rogie Ah yeah I remember that was an issue in UI2 as well. Forcing me to go find my mouse to select a style

[Jan Six @six7]

@rogie bit of UI3 feedback: My favorite shortcut no longer works 😔 I used to use Shift+I to replace an existing instance with another component by typing the name and then pressing Opt+Enter. Opt+Enter doesnt work anymore in UI3's instance picker

[Jan Six @six7]

@rogie Awesome, thank you! ❤️

I like to use the keyboard as much as possible so dragging isn't an option 😅
