👩🎨 🎨 Second screen enhancements
Our community is using Second Screen as a visual way to see more information about their tokens in a grid-style display, and they have requested some enhancements:
Resolved values for color modifiers need to be accurate
Today, the values don't match what is being shown in the plugin when references are a part of the color token
Modifier value doesn't appear in the UI as expected.
When viewing the JSON of my tokens in Second Screen, each token includes a system generated ID kvp. This is an issue because:
It's not accounted for in our transforms
because it is system generated, duplicating or creating tokens in JSON view makes the value impossible to work with
If two or more tokens contain the same ID value, changes to the tokens will not save and an error is presented
Remove the name label from the token name property, as it triggers password keepers to assume it is a name input field.

😬 The reality
Color-modified tokens were added after Second Screen was launched, and these features weren't included in the scope of work.
💭 How might we...
Ensure that new token types and improvements on existing token types are supported in Second Screen as a part of our project planning?

Feature Request
Shift+Click and Ctrl+Click for Batch Selection
While using the second screen feature, it would be beneficial to have the ability to use common selection shortcuts like Shift+Click and Ctrl+Click to select multiple tokens for batch operations. Currently, only a “Select All” option is available, which limits the flexibility of selecting specific tokens.
