About this plugin
Can’t seem to locate that one layer that’s using variables from another file?Just select your frame or artboard and open the plugin. From there you can locate, select, and swap out any layers that might be giving you troubles.Locate:Use to identify and pinpoint layers for further investigation.Swap:Will let you change out the selected layer(s). The plugin looks for identical naming conventions (helpful for when its an old copy of the same file/template) first, otherwise you can search for an existing variable from your file to swap with.
