Perspective component not interactive on Designer View

Module Development

Hi,

I have a relatively simple custom perspective component that consist of a dropdown at the moment. However, once I drag the component to a view, even though it gets added, it's not interactive at all, i.e. i can't select an option from the dropdown, i can't select the component to update it's position, even if i update the position in the perspective property editor it doesn't get adjusted as well.

Any idea what I'm missing here? I can provide more implementation detaills if needed but just wonder if there are any simple reasoning behind this before I post all the code.

Are you using the style emitter on the top level of your component?

This will help.

Added the style emitter and it resolved the issue.

This is probably more of a ignition question but I still can't click on the dropdown to select options, is this a normal behavior in the designer view? If so is there a way to go to a view that I can test the dropdown from?

Does anything different happen in preview mode?
I think mouse events are default disabled in design mode.

Again that works just as desired. Thank you!
