Quick summary
To undo a component in Figma, you select the component on your design canvas, open More Actions from the right-side panel, and choose Detach Instance to convert it back into a regular editable object. This process removes the component link without deleting the element, giving designers full control over individual layers.
Steps
- Inside your Figma design canvas, find and click the component you wish to undo.
- Navigate to the right-side panel and click the More Actions button.
- Tap Detach Instance from the dropdown menu that appears.
- The selected object will no longer be a component and is now a fully editable element.
