Question

Moving Item Within Component in XD changes elements not tied to that object. [example in post]

Hello!

 

I am currently working on a document using a component to change content on an artboard instead of having it go to a new artboard so that I can have it return to the last artboard for prototyping.

 

Anyway, when I move a specific element within the component it changes other elements within that component not linked to the element I moved as well as snaps the element I moved to a specific area of the page. It is hard to verbalize the issue, so I included a link to a video showing the issue.

    I am so glad you posted this, I thought I was going crazy! 
    I have a very similar issue. 
    In a component, not in the master state, trying to move basically anything causes pieces not related to what I am moving to go crazy. Sometimes I can't move the piece that I need to at all!
    It's made component states essentially useless for me.

    Here's a video showing me making changes in the component master state (which works), and then in the child state (which makes other objects in the component go crazy).
