Cannot set thumbnail when element is a component instance in FigJam

Hi all, I’ve been using covers in FigJam as well. I created a variant in Figma that has a variety of file cover types (project, flowchart, process, etc.) and can access them in FigJam after I load the component library using the Libraries feature . Then you can select whatever cover you would need for that FigJam file (they provide a drop down to select the variant type, even in FigJam). However…it appears the “Set as thumbnail” command in FigJam is not available for added Figma components (apparently because it is considered an instance and has no top level frame). So what I have to do is cut it out of FigJam, drop it into a Figma design file, give it a frame, then cut paste it back into FigJam - not ideal. This is something Figma should consider adding; seems like it just a missing feature. Cheers, Ben
