Question

Components with hover states should automatically go back to default state when previewing

Hi there,

when i want to to test my component states in prototype mode, i have to put every single one in the standard component to test them, otherwise they stuck in hover mode. Shouldn´t XD put them automatically back in standard?

    Hey Guys,

    Is there anyway when previewing your work, have your components default back to "default state" automatically?

    There are some components that I have hovers or other states and I usually forget to select default state before previewing and its quite annoying to keep going to all my components to select default state then preview.

    Thanks!

      That never happens in my workflow. But if that really happens... you can enter that idea as feature request

        Hi there! Just to be clear, states are set up so that you can use any variation or state as the default, and it's sticky. However, you can also set up interactions between them so that you can either have hover states or click through states. Here's a simple example: https://twitter.com/elainecchao/status/1193970397177356288?s=20

        Hey thanks for the explanation,

        of course its great that Components behave like this, but when i have tons of component states it can take a while to set them back to default, to show the prototype.

        Example: I design a button with a hover state, now when i set the button to the hover state in design mode and press play, i can not test the hover unless i choose the default mode in design mode. If i forget to do that with multiple components, it could be very time consuming. Maybe we could have a "default component button" that sets all the component back to default when i want to play my prototype.

          When you say "Standard" mode, are you referring to the "Default mode?"
