Hi, my problem was the same like here: “Change Variant of a component from a different component”

Change variant of a component from a different component

@tank666 sent me a very helpful visual step by step video for this solution after i asked for that. BIG THANKS FOR THAT!!!

So far, it works. But it don’t works with nested instances within a component. It seems that Figma has no solution for that at the moment. Is there a smart workaround to bind a variable in a nested instance within a component or to have the same effect to swap a state of different component?

Best regards

Hej, could you send that step by step tutorial to me? 🙂
I’m stuck and can’t find the solution, as I don’t really understand what I’m supposed to be doing…

Best regards
