How to find locations of components

Hi,
I have the following question regarding Design Systems. There are two cases of using previously built components. In the first case, everything is clear; I’ve created five different icon variations, and I know where they are located on the mockups. However, in the second case, I’ve built a component, but I no longer remember its exact location on the mockup.

My question is, is there a way to quickly check where these components are located? Something like selecting a component and having it jump to the Design System but in the opposite direction.

Hey @Martin68 - if I understand correctly, you should be able to use the search function to find this component (and all instances of it).

Then, if you search the name of the component, you can click on it, and it will take you to where it’s located.

Let me know if I misunderstood.

^^ these screenshots are probably not the best to demonstrate, but try the search function 😅
