Lock Mirror on Frame

I would like to have the mirror feature be locked to a specific frame so that i’m able to see direct changes on the device of choice.

What happens today; I select a frame that i want to view, go to edit another frame ( this could be a component ) and mirror switches aautomatically.

All i want is a way to hold the focus on the one frame until i say so. It would make life so much easier especially during meetings where changes are requested on the spot and the test device will then switch between too many different items which ends up distracting the stake holders. So much pain!

Thanks.

I have no idea why such mundane features are missing from a product that boasts about and is literally meant for designing user experience.

Figma, you can implement this in like 2 minutes. I am looking at a mirror frame and need to adjust a component to see the result, and my mirror keeps getting switched to that component. Very annoying , need to go look for that main frame and click it again just to preview my tweaks. PLEASE ADD THIS FEATURE, all it takes is a switch button in the app for locking the mirrored frame.

Two years in and 299 releases later, they still haven’t addressed this feature. Come on, guys! It’s a small fix that would lead to a significant improvement in quality of life. I feel like I’m shouting into the void here. 😤

I went looking for this feature because I also wanted to lock the view on to the current frame whilst I tweaked a component. This seemed like an obvious feature to include
