prototype connection gets lost when updating asset
When refreshing an external asset (for example from a design system file) the asset looses its prototype connections.
We have a 2 file setup:
A design system files that delivers styles and icons and a protoype file where we import the design system file..
As soon as I for example update the menu icon in the design system file, all connections in the prototype of that icon get lost, which is kind of annoying when you have 40 screens that you have to link once again each time.

I have a related issue. Version 20.1.12.4:
I use a xd file "master styles" which I refer to in a xd file. When I make changes to the "master style.xd" from another computer ( Homeoffice ... ), I cannot save the "master style.xd." An alert tells me, there is an issue. Then 2 hours later, I was able to save the "master style.xd". Then I tried to reopen the master style.xd from the original computer all my changes to the "master style.xd" were not saved at all. Nothing is there. -

I am experiencing a similar issue. I am in prototype mode and none of my draw wires are visible. When I add new draw wires, the draw wire menu doesn't display.

I am having the same issue with the liked assets. In my case I have a parent component with several components as children that I use as a master template. As soon I update the parent, every wire from a child get lost. However, one thing I've noticed is if I draw a wire from the content inside the child, the wire doesn't get lost.
