Hey, all my project’s instances detached from parent’s component with no reason. I don’t understand how it could happen. I don’t have any instance remained currently in my file. Just the main components in my Components section.
Already happened to someone ? Any idea to fix it quickly ?

Thanks a lot !

Hey there, sorry to hear this happened!

Once you detach an instance of a component from its main component, the only way to “reattach” it would be to immediately undo the action by using the shortcut (cmd/ctrl + z) or by restoring to a previous version of your file(s). There isn’t an easy way to reattach an instance to a different main component, but there are plugins in the community that may help. Here’s a couple of examples:
