Change the order of exposed nested instances

It doesn’t look like there’s an obvious way to change the order of exposed nested instances. Right now the order seems to be based on reverse layer order. It’d be great if the order can be manually adjusted.

Hi all, Thanks for sharing your thoughts about nested instance properties! I will make sure to bring this up with our internal team for future consideration.

Thanks,

Yes, it would be SUPER helpful for our team to be able to reorder the nested instance properties (without changing the actual order layer of the instances in the component-- with autolayout, the actual layer order matters a lot!)

+100000. Plus it would be nice to be able to select which properties of a nested instance are being leaked. I’m building complex design systems for clients, so they are able to quickly export customized versions of a template. But sometimes i need to restrict the client to being able to change all of the properties.

+100, yes it would be so great to even pull apart the items, so that a nested item’s property could be placed anywhere, or hidden if needed.
