NO BUG: Variables manager doesn't replace renamed variable instances

Hi Valentin,
Thanks so much for your report!

Yes, this is the expected behavior. There’s currently no code that would do the job. See: Global Variables Manager – Bricks Academy

  • Bulk actions: …such as renaming and duplicating. … However, it’s important to note that renaming a CSS variable does not automatically update its instances throughout your site.

 

This is a similar limitation to this one:
WIP: CSS variable picker (dropdown) we cannot search for dash ( "-" or "- -" )

However, in my opinion, it makes perfect sense for „numbers", as it can always happen that you don’t want to select a variable and instead want to enter the value, the variable picker would still always pop up - which could be annoying in the long run (the logic is identical for every input/RAW value field).

But there’s a simple “workaround”: search for --900. This should work (at least in 1.10beta).

Best regards,
timmse
