When attempting to swap the instance of a nested component (e.g. changing the icon in a button), I get the following error.




“An error occurred while retrieving the component or state group”



First time I’ve ever come across this error in all my time working in Figma, so I wanted to find out whether anyone else has experienced this error and, if so, what can be done to solve it?


Thanks in advance!
