I took a design in the Figma community. And there are many instances that I want. But there is no a main component for rewrite.
The only way I found is create a component above the “community component”, but it’s not the same.

Is there a way to have the real/export “real” component to my file? Or convert the instance to the parent component?

Hello @Norman_Jaimes, Thank you for getting in touch about the community design file! I understand that having access to the main component would be helpful.

I reviewed a design file that was duplicated from the community, and I could access the main component by clicking on the [go to main component] icon in the instance properties after selecting an instance.

Could you please verify if this is applicable in your file from community as well?

I hope this information is useful! If I have misunderstood anything, please let me know.
