Figma Motion Breaks in Component

Please enable Figma motion to work for “Change To” interaction in components. I use it in specific sections that change on click / mouse enter interactions but can’t use it because of this obstacle.

Example: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd variant has animations. When I proto click → change to variant 2, the animation does not load. However if I have it looped, it starts after the full loop time length finishes for some reason.

It works when using “Navigate To”, so for now I have to fake it by creating multiple frames of the full page instead of it simply working within the specific section.

Hey, ​@platinumlove 👋 This is great feedback. Are you able to share a quick not-zoomed-in screen recording of the workaround in action? I’d love to add that to the feedback I share internally. If not, no worries. Talk soon! — Jaycee
