SOLVED! Move components between root frames and modals in tree

UPDATE, minutes after posting: Cut (not Copy) and Paste actually works as expected :smiley:

An option to Move components between root Frames and Modals. This could be through:

  • Drag and drop
  • Cut (not Copy) and Paste ← This actually works
  • Contextual menu "Move to > Frame1, Frame 2, Modal1, Modal 3"

Figma and other UI design tools have all three. One would be great.

I'm optimising some app where the option to Create or Edit elements were dumped on the page directly. I'm creating separate modals for these, and would need to move some components from the Main canvas to a new modal. There doesn't seem to be any way to do this.

NOTE about the Copy feature: When the components are Copy/Pasted, the new duplicate components get new id's assigned, i.e. button2, jsonEditor2, etc. This breaks the scripts and defeats the purpose.

So glad you got this working with Cut/Paste!

Thank you for coming back to share the solution with the forum community, I was worried we had a major functionality issue :sweat_smile:
