Variants

What are variants?

Variants allow you to group multiple variations of a component, such as different styles or states of a button, into a single container. For example, dark, light, and green versions of a search button can be grouped into one variant set, simplifying asset management and usage.

Creating a variant set

• Select a group of components.
• Go to the Design panel and choose Create Component Set to group the components into a single variant.
• Use slashes (e.g., button/dark/default) to organize properties like style (dark, light, green) and state (default, hover).
• Rename property labels for clarity, such as changing "Property 1" to Style and "Property 2" to State.

Managing variants

Instances of variants can be created by copying any one of them. Properties of each instance can be adjusted from the Design panel, allowing you to switch between different styles or states. To add more variants, use the plus icon under the variant set to include additional variations.

Creating interactions

For interactive prototypes, connect a default button to its hover state in the Prototype tab. Set the Trigger to "While Hovering" and Animation to "Dissolve" with a 500ms duration. Use the Preview button near the flow starting point to test interactions directly.

This streamlined structure makes the process easier to understand and follow. Let me know if you need further adjustments!
