Question

Missing Variants option in right sidebar

I no longer have a variants option in my right sidebar. I select a component with or without variants, and nothing. This is a very big problem. Has anyone encountered this glitch?

Me too. I guess we’ll have to get used to it as well as the other changes. Yesterday I was confident about auto layout, today not so much… hahaha
If you ask me, I think they should add a variant shortcut as well. In cases with lots of variants it would really come in handy! 🤞

All this supposed helpful updates are not well thought out in my opinion.

I can no longer see every and all variants at a glance. How is this helpful? we have to instead dig through more clicking after clicking after clicking…

Yeah, they should surface the variants a bit more. The properties are much improved, albeit a little more complex to grasp.

I also am having this issue. I can still create variants and add properties. This still shows the components panel, but the variants panel seems to be completely gone for me and will not show. Hoping to see the panel return in the next update as the experience was superior in my opinion.

How can Variant option be removed from the right panel, it’s available when you right click and on the top bar but once created, I am not able to delete any of the property/…Strange 😦

Stuck here too. Worked through the tutorial file and creating a text property only creates a boolean. Does not work as advertised. - Was hoping this would be flagged and patched quickly, but it’s been over a week. Am I the only one?

there is an option called properties in sidebar when you create a component. when you click on properties , the variant option is there.
