Figma interactive component (overlay) doesn't work across pages?


Does figma do not support overlay prototype components in different pages? Or I am doing something wrong? I created button component with hover overlay effect (prototype) of listed menu items, hoverver If I use same component button in different PAGE drop down menu overlay doesn’t work. Is this a bug or figma doesn’t support prototypes across the pages?
I use firefox, it doesn’t work on app either

Hey All, sorry for the trouble!

It currently isn’t possible to create a prototype across the pages of your file, but this is already on our radar for the future.

I am facing the same issue. Overlays attached to interactive variants don’t work either

Same problem here…

I need to call an overlay from my component

and bring this component with the overlay interaction to my main prototype page

Right now I have to create multiples prototype switch case pages to call the same overlay interaction one by one

My case is an overlay dropdown menu - would like to call it in the component prototype not in the main prototype page

How we can make this a feature request?
