Move Variables Between Collections and Files Without Breaking Alias Connections

https://www.figma.com/community/file/1529641539336941505/move-variables-tutorial


What you can do with this plugin :


  1. Move variables between files and collections without breaking alias relationships
  2. Update / relink all elements in the file to keep using the variables after they were moved - so it can be safely used by design systems maintainers
  3. Control the moving algorithm - e.g. how to handle collections with different number of modes, how to handle duplicate variable names etc..



Note that the plugin is paid, with 1 free trial for every file. Moving variables to other files is available only for the paid version.
