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 !

    Hey again, ​@Bookie0! That’s really unfortunate that you lost some work in discovering the bug. 

     

    I’m happy to report that this has been fixed, so it shouldn’t be an issue going forward. Let me know if you have any trouble!

    Hey there ​@adamsmasher ! Another bug i found that seems related to Slots and undoing

     

    • Inside an Instance’s Slot:
    • Have several Frames
    • Select all of them
    • Un-frame them with Cmd-Shift-G
    • Undo the action with Cmd-Z 
    • Land in this awkward position where the sidebar is broken on the right (the Frames are correctly restored, no data loss)

    Expected behavior: Cmd-Z returns the Design panel on the right to the initial state

     

    Let me know if you need more details! :)

    Thanks for your reply, ​@Clement_Roze1, and for reporting this! Glad this is display issue and that there’s no data loss.

     

    If you refresh the page or select another layer then reselect the slot, does it then display the properties panel correctly? I wasn’t sure if it remained in that state or returned to normal on a refresh, and I want to include that in the report I make with the team. Thanks so much!

    Hi ​@adamsmasher ! Correct, – refreshing the page or selecting another frame (and then re-selecting the original frame) does make the properties panel show correctly.
