I love the new padding feature but the components appear to have been broken in the process. (I've only tested this on Mac.)
To reproduce the bug:
The only way to get these links on the pages is to copy the component from the Prototype tab and paste it on all the pages. Then if you make any changes to the master component you have to delete all the instances and repaste the component. And if you changed each of the buttons to an "active" state on each of the pages, you have to redo that, too.
This is a real pain and worked perfectly in the last release.
Please fix ASAP.

Hi there,
I went through the document you shared and had the follwing observations for which you are facing the linking issue.
Observations: You have created button1 as the master component and for all other components you have created instances of the same button. Also you have created the button bar using the instances of button 1(component). Due to which, when you are linking the buttons (of the button bar which is also a component) to their respective pages it is not working for the button bar

We will try our best to help.

I tried reproducing your issue but couldn't. Would it be possible for you to upload your file to a shared location and share the URL with Harshika over a private message for investigation. If the file isn't confidential, you can reply to this post by sharing the URL so that the experts here can also investigate this for you.

Hello Preran and Harshika and thanks for your help.
I can't believe you are not able to reproduce this issue. I just set up a test this morning which definitely illustrates it. Here is the XD file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/t178yzxfql3mxij/XD%20Navigation%20Test.xd?dl=0
In this file, you'll see that I have 2 components. The first is the button component. The second is the button bar component which included the button component. The master button bar component is linked to all the pages, but when it was copied and pasted onto all the pages, all of the prototype links were lost.

Hi Preran and Harshika. Have you guys had a chance to investigate my project and see what may be the cause of the issue? Thanks so much for your help!

Thanks for sharing the file with us, Palenpointe. This is the screenshot of your interactions. It looks like you have connected Page1 on canvas to the Page1 Artboard. When I preview it, it gives me hover effect on all the button bars of the Page1 but I am unable to see the other pages as the pages aren't connected to any of the button bar.
The file has 4 pages instead of 5 pages. If want page 2 to be displayed when click on button bar page2. You need to give another interaction to the Page2 bar and connect with Page2 Artboard.
Please let me know if this is not what you are looking for. I will try my best to help.
Thanks,
Harshika

Thanks for the feedback. The master button bar component has links to all 4 pages, but when I copied it to each of the 4 pages, the link was lost. This works fine on PC as the links are maintained, but does not work on Mac.
Can you see each of the links from the hover state of each button in the button bar on the master component?

Any further thoughts/acknowledgement of the hover state links not being maintained or propagated?

Why have you dropped this? Have you tried to understand and reproduce the bug that I pointed out since I've provided more clarification for you?

Hi there,
I went through the document you shared and had the follwing observations for which you are facing the linking issue.
Observations: You have created button1 as the master component and for all other components you have created instances of the same button. Also you have created the button bar using the instances of button 1(component). Due to which, when you are linking the buttons (of the button bar which is also a component) to their respective pages it is not working for the button bar in the pages.
Solution:
1. Create 4 components of the 4 buttons (as all four will be linked to different pages)
2. Create the button bar using the instances of the four buttons and make it a component
3. Create 4 artboards
4. Add instances of the button bar to each of the four pages
5. In the assets panel, right click on button1 and select edit in master component
6. It will get directed to button 1, in the prototype mode link button 1(master component) to page 1 and do the same with all other buttona and pages
7. Now, you will be able to see that all the buttons in all the pages are linked to their respective pages.
Hope it solves your problem.
Thanks & Regards,
Jagriti Kashyap
