Groups explained (Overlap, Stack, Komponent)
#
Overlap Group
#
The “Overlap” group is a container for other modules, the layer size will increase based on its contents so it will basically “wrap” the items inside it. As the name suggest the “Overlap” group will place the items one on top of the other, you will then need to use the padding or the anchor to move them inside, the anchor is relative to the Group so if you anchor something “top left” in an Overlap Group it will be the top left of the group itself.
...How to link komponent and root global variables
#
There are instances when you need to access your root global variables from a komponent. To do this, the two variables needs to be linked. The steps below demonstrate how this is done.
- Create a Text global variable (
rootVar) in your root directory with some data
- Create another Text global variable (
kVar) in your komponent and leave it empty
- Tap on the check box next to your list
kVar - Tap on the “globe” icon from the top right
- Tap on the “globe” icon that’s appended to your
kVar variable
- Select
rootVar from the list
- Add a Text element in your komponent with the following formula:
$gv(kVar)$
