How to create component text field to appear?

I’m working on creating a lot of components with text fields in them and I can’t figure out how to get the text fields to appear for an instance of a component within the Design menu. See the screenshots below of what I’m trying to recreate for an instance of a component. 

 

I can set the properties so that it shows/hides the labels, but I can’t seem to figure out how to set the property to also allow me to change the text from the Design Menu like in the screenshot above.

Hey! 

  • Select the text layer
  • under text settings (right panel), select the input and then click the icon next to it (apply variable/propriety)
  • Hit the plus icon button
  • set your propriety, hit create propriety

Thanks so much!  I was using the appearance properties, not the text properties. Duh!
