Dropdown component within master component doesn't work in instance

[Jacob34]

I made a dropdown component and placed it within a datepicker component where you first have to open the calendar mode, then choose year and month.
However, the dropdown wont open properly. Only the open/close chevron sign will rotate.

How will I fix this?

1. Check Component Layers

• Ensure Proper Layer Order: Make sure that the dropdown component is placed above other layers in your datepicker component. It should be at the top of the stacking order so it’s not hidden by other elements.
• Adjust Z-Index: If using Auto Layout or constraints, ensure the dropdown isn’t being constrained in a way that prevents it from being visible.

2. Verify Interaction Settings

• Check Interaction Triggers: Make sure the interactions or triggers for opening the dropdown are set up correctly. For instance, ensure the dropdown opens when the chevron is clicked.
• Test in Prototype Mode: Switch to the prototype mode to test interactions and make sure they’re set up correctly. This will help you identify if there’s an issue with the interaction logic.

3. Component Overrides

• Inspect Overrides: If you have used overrides in the dropdown or datepicker components, ensure they don’t conflict with the dropdown’s functionality.
• Reset Overrides: Try resetting any overrides to see if this resolves the issue.

4. Auto Layout Settings

• Verify Auto Layout Configuration: If the dropdown is using Auto Layout, ensure that the settings are correct and allow the dropdown to expand properly when triggered.

5. Interaction Testing

• Test Dropdown Separately: Test the dropdown component outside of the datepicker component to confirm it functions correctly in isolation. This helps rule out issues specific to the datepicker integration.
• Review Prototype Settings: Make sure that the dropdown component is correctly set up in your prototype and that the interactions for opening/closing it are properly configured.

6. Check for Overlapping Elements

• Inspect for Overlaps: Ensure that no other elements or components are overlapping or blocking the dropdown. Sometimes, overlapping elements can prevent interactions from working as intended.

7. Debug and Rebuild

• Rebuild the Dropdown: If the above steps don’t work, try rebuilding the dropdown component from scratch to see if that resolves the issue. Sometimes, starting fresh can help identify and fix underlying problems.
