I’m approximating a version of Material Design’s text fields. In this case it drives a repeater of tag chips that I want to use in a lot of different areas. (Channels, Tags - metadata, basically) I may also end up using it for product variants and the like.
In order to add spacing to cover the field’s border, there are 8px of padding on the left and right of an otherwise “fit-to-text” label. This works well outside a master, but when I use the override styling on the master, it ignores the padding of the label.
Ideally, the label padding would work with override styling - this is the assumed functionality.
It looks like this issue may be occurring due to the size of the fit to text widget in the master not updating to a size that fits the text of the master override. Master overrides do not currently update the sizing of the master’s widget when the widget is set to fit to text, but I can see how this functionality could be very useful. I’ll be filing a feature request regarding this with our respective teams.
Additionally, it sounds like you would be interested in being able to override the hint text for a text field widget using master overrides. I’ll be happy to file a feature request in regards to this functionality as well!
Thanks Chelsea, that sounds great! And yes, anything I can override would be great, since I tend to pack a lot of functionality into re-usable widgets. The fewer control points I have to edit/manage the better.
An option to tick to “pin inside master” or something would be great too, so that I could resize the master and have certain things set to stretch and other things set to remain place relative to the bounding box of the master. Sketch does something similar and it makes their componentized masters incredibly powerful.
