Component in figma

Hi there! Welcome to the community and thanks for your feedback.
As a workaround, if you have accidentally created a Component, you can turn this back into an Instance.

This allows you to keep the object(s) you created, without having them as Components.

• If you just created the Component you can undo it right away using the shortcut:

  • Mac: ⌘ CommandZ
  • Windows: ControlZ

• If you want to revert something that’s been a Component for a while:

  1. Create an Instance of the new Component.
  2. Detach the Instance from the Component.
  3. Delete the original Component.

I hope this helps!
