Return to instance button gone

Hello. not sure what happened, but the Return to instance button disappeared.
just to clarify my process is:

  1. created a component.
  2. duplicated it
  3. once insitu I realized I want to make changes to the main comp.
  4. click go to the main component
  5. then realize the Return to instance button is not showing up.

would love a shortcut for sure. I could not find any info about the topic either.

Yes, Iā€™m experiencing this same problem and itā€™s really slowed down my work. Interesting how such a seemingly small feature is so important.

UPDATE:

Right-click on an instance and click on ā€œgo to main componentā€ the return to instance button is enabled.
Click the ā€œgo to main componentā€ button on the right-side panel it does not show up

Bumping this issue, it randomly disappeared for me over the weekend!

Yes, this only works on right click.

I find it doesnā€™t even do that reliably.
