Setting global variants from code not working?

Developer Support
1

Having an issue with Global Variants - I’ve set a dark mode option and changed the style tokens and PlasmicRootProvider:
globalVariants={[{ name: "theme", value: "dark" }]}

can’t seem to get it to work am I missing something?

2

can you try it with name: "Theme" :pensive:

3

any tricks on bubbling up a background color to the body tag?

@chungwu this would be great to know!

5

hmm there’s no way to style the body tag from within Plasmic right now…

6

@chungwu do you have any suggestions on how to implement this?

7

Hmm not with loader, no… There’s no way right now even for code components to read the currently active global variants. We should make this possible.

@chungwu any chance we will have that soon?
