Question

Cmd+Z does not restore cut elements inside slots of component instances and breaks the sidebar

It seems like like if you cut (cmd-X) an element inside a slot inside an instance, and then undo it, it gets in this broken state where it doesn't bring back the element. The sidebar also odd too with a broken Position and Layout elements.

 

Please see video attached.

 

Steps

 

  • Create a component with a nested slot inside
  • Make an instance, and add some elements inside
  • Cut one or several elements with Cmd-X
  • Undo with Cmd-Z
  • The item(s) don’t show up, and the sidebar enters a bugged state (0:22 in the video)

Expected behavior: the elements should restore properly, just like outside of a slot.

Thanks for your post, ​@Bookie0!

 

That does seem pretty weird! I was able to replicate what you demonstrate in your video, so I’ll take this to our team and create a bug ticket with them. One thing I noticed when testing was that undoing with CMD + Z works if I use Delete rather than CMD + X. I did still see some weirdness in the Design panel, but it did bring back the layer. 

 

Cheers, and thanks again for letting us know!

hi ​@adamsmasher ! thank you for your response.

 

glad you were able to replicate and thanks for sending it to the team. ANd yes, undoing indeed works if i press Delete instead of Cmd X. However since i did use the Cmd X feature, my work seems lost which is a bit sad :(

 

hope the team can fix this soon !
