Identify unused symbols

It would be great to be able to see which symbols are not used on any of project's artboards.

Sometimes this kind of feature is needed to clean up symbols library.

    Please can we get this feature for all document assets.. files are sooo laborious to maintain compared to illustrator (select all on artboard toggle feature) and InDesign select all unused swatches.

    I know you can do it Adobe!! :)

    Still waiting for a better solution to this problem. Please provide better tools for managing components and unused objects etc..

    Locating and deleting unused assets would definitely be a great addition to the features.

    Especially when using another project or a UI kit as a template, there will be lots and lots of symbols / components / character styles / colors in the assets menu that need to be deleted!

    I often end up having a very bloated asset/component library.

    Deleting unused symbols would help a lot.

    Please add this feature!

    I waste so much time having to hover over each component trying to find out whether its being used. We definitely need a way to search for unused assets. If we can search for them it will be easy to highlight them all and delete them in one hit.

    I absolutely agree with this statement from thomasbricker:

    "Yes, there should definitely be a way to "clear" all unused Assets and Symbols from a document.
    Its too confusing to wade through all of the Assets and Symbols that build up."

    Hovering is not an efficient way of solving the issue of many unused or orphaned components and elements etc..

    Also, a function along these lines: If any given component registers no instances used on canvas, have the option to delete it and thus reduce asset clutter. When dealing with dozens of artboards and prototypes, the asset clutter becomes barely manageable.

    yes this would be helpful, maybe adding an option to delete unused ones.

    I want to weigh in here.

    FYI, If you hover mouse over symbol in assets panel, the tooltip shows how many instances are in the document.

    Would be really useful to search for unused symbols

    This would be extremely helpful!!!! Often I use existing files to build new stuff and this would be a great way to do house keeping

    I'm surprised this has yet to be implemented. You can never delete a symbol for fear that it's being used somewhere
