Nested components

[Aliza5E78]

Hey, I'm quite a beginner here. So little help would be much appreciated.

Actually I'm stuck at the part of placing a component within a component ( nested components). I will explain my problem here more by inserting few pictures below. My problem is that whenever I try to place this icon as a component in the master component it instead replaces all the components and this icon become a component itself. Whenever I try to place it inside the main component's box alongside the email text, it instead replaces it into the icon.

Hello Aliza5E78,

In addition to Harshika's reply, I would like to add to this, actually your dragging and dropping a component from the document assets panel, thats why the component on canvas  replacing with the dragged one, you can try this , double click on the main component drag the componentfrom the document assets panel which u want to add to the main component..

Hope it helps,
