Description:

Tired of manually updating variables one by one? Wish you could seamlessly move your design tokens between projects and libraries? Variables Pro is the powerful, all-in-one solution for advanced variable management, built to save you hours of tedious work and supercharge your entire Figma workflow. Whether you're managing a complex design system, creating dynamic marketing visuals, or building data-driven diagrams, Variables Pro gives you the power to automate and scale your designs like never before.

Features:

### 🚀 Swap Entire Libraries in a Click

Effortlessly migrate your designs from one variable library to another. Whether you're updating your design system, switching themes, or adopting a new token collection, you can do it in seconds, not hours. Variables Pro supports swapping variables that are already applied in your current file. You can swap between:

  1. Collections within the same file: Switch between different variable collections in your current document
  2. Collections from different files (libraries): Swap from your current file's collections to collections from external library files
  3. Total Control: Apply swaps to your current selection, the entire page, or all pages in your file with precision.
  4. Smart & Seamless: The plugin intelligently maps variables from your source collection to your target collection, whether it's in the same file or from an external library.

### 🔄 Powerful Import & Export

Bridge the gap between your code and your designs, ensuring perfect consistency across your entire product.

- Export to JSON: Convert your Figma variables into a clean, developer-ready JSON format. Captures everything: modes, aliases, scopes, and code syntax.

- Import from JSON: Bring your design tokens from any source directly into Figma. Variables Pro intelligently handles complex structures, creating collections and variables for you automatically.

- Complete Color Format Support in Import: Import colors in any format you use: 6-digit hex, 3-digit hex, RGB/RGBA, HSL/HSLA (with or without percentages).

- Selective Sync: Choose exactly which collections to import or export, giving you granular control over your tokens.

_To see how to structure your data, you can download a sample JSON file from within the plugin._

### 🔎 Find What You Need, Instantly

Our advanced search helps you pinpoint the exact variables you want to work with across all your libraries, ensuring you always have perfect control over your import, export, and swap operations.

### Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I transfer my license to a different email address?

No, licenses are tied to the email address used for the original purchase and cannot be transferred.

A License to use the Plugin remains strictly non-transferable and is primarily associated with the email address used during the original purchase.

For technical validation within the Figma environment, the license key is immediately bound to the specific and unique Figma User ID (Account ID) linked to the purchasing email address at the moment of first activation.

This means that even if you use the same email address, the license will not automatically validate if you switch between different Figma Workspaces, Teams, or Organizations. The license functionality is tied only to the original Figma User ID where it was initially activated.

2. How can I learn to use the plugin?

We have a couple of great resources to get you started:

- Playground File: Explore our interactive Figma playground file to see practical examples and get hands-on experience with all the features.
