Changing component properties

Open elcicneha opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

I have a use case where I don't have multiple rows for each kind of data. I've placed my data in a specific place and I just need to update certain other values related to it. So right now, how I'm doing it is name the layers for each of them like date1tag data1desc data1tagname and same for data2, data3 and so on.

The problem comes when I want to use components. I have a component set called 'tag'. There are 5 variants of tags, and the data1tag determines the variant. Now, there's also a text inside it, which I'm setting using data1tagname. But the problem is every time the instance switches to a different variant, the name of the text layer inside it resets (data1tagname to Text) and so the data doesn't get synced.

I've created a text property inside the component but I can't find a way to change the property of the variant using the Google Sheet Sync. Is there something I'm missing, or can it be done?
