Been playing around with the “expose nested properties” feature currently in beta.

One of the great uses of variant properties is the ability to batch edit property values on multiple selected components. That use doesn’t carry over to exposed nested properties (yet I hope).


Demo file to help


When selecting one component instance exposing nested properties, said properties display fine. Add another instance of the same component to your selection (using Shift+Click), and the nested properties outright disappear from the right panel.


I haven’t seen this issue raised elsewhere! Do you experience it too?

Just replying again to keep this thread alive… 🤞

+1 need this so muchhhh!!! bumping this.

Need this feature. Would save tons of time!

+1 We are doing bulk edits to a design which uses some checkboxes and toggles, and it’s a huge time sink to have to manually select and edit dozens and dozens of components just because the nested properties cannot be multi-edited

Same issue here, would be great not to have to go through all instances or copy-paste the proper one each time…

Bump.

If performance is a concern, is it possible to mitigate that by making the nested properties visible only if the number of selection is below a limit?


Similar to this auto-spacing function that currently has an upper limit for selection, beyond which it’s not available / disappears.

+1 This is quite annoying to deal with
