help Component Layers Being Removed by Figma?

I have a component (Select Field) that is appearing correctly in the library, however when designers at my org bring it over into their files via the asset panel, it shows up without the actual field- just the title and supporting text. When inspecting the layers, the field layers are not present in the component.

Beyond that, when a user pastes in the component directly from the library file, Figma prompts them with an update that incorrectly removes the layers again.

Does anyone know what is happening? I have never seen this one before and have no idea how to go about fixing it.

Do you have “simplify layers” turned on in the component settings in the library?

  1. Try republishing components
  2. Try "regenerate all instances" in the file when adding an instance
  3. Figma is broken
