Every release, improvement, and fix to Instancer — in reverse chronological order.
Custom drag-and-drop layout editor. Drag properties between COLUMNS and ROWS zones for custom table arrangements.
Live Layout Preview panel. See column/row distribution and total combination count before generating.
Auto-Optimal uses golden-ratio scoring (1.6:1 aspect ratio) with penalties for tables over 12 columns or 20 rows.
Layout direction toggle resets custom drag layout automatically to avoid stale arrangements.
Fixed a bug where disabled properties could still appear in the layout preview after toggling.
Fixed missing property groups when custom layout references properties that were subsequently disabled.
Bracket header style: vector bracket lines spanning column and row groups as an alternative to box headers.
Custom color theme: pick any hex and Instancer derives secondary, stroke, and accent palette.
Spanning headers merge adjacent cells with the same value. No repeated labels per column.
Column and row header labels are now CENTER aligned within their spans for cleaner visual hierarchy.
Fixed bracket spacing rendering at very small span widths (less than 12px).
Nested Instance (Exposed Instance) support. Traverses the full component tree and includes exposed sub-component properties.
Path-based property naming for nested instances (e.g. Icon/variant) to avoid name collisions.
Property Documentation Table: companion frame listing properties, types, and accepted values alongside the grid.
Exposed instance properties are now resolved asynchronously using getMainComponentAsync() for reliable variant option discovery.
Fixed crash when a nested component set had no variant options defined.
Boolean property support — includes true/false states in the combination matrix with dedicated global toggle.
Per-property toggle switches — enable or disable individual properties without changing global filter settings.
Smart positioning — generated tables are placed to the right of the selected component, with fallback to left or below if off-screen.
Progress reporting — generation progress (0–100%) is streamed to the UI during large batch operations.
4 built-in color themes: Purple, Ocean Blue, Forest Green, Sunset Orange.
Batch instance creation in groups of 50 with async yielding — prevents Figma UI from freezing on large tables.
Uniform cell size calculated from the largest variant dimensions — instances are always centered in their cells.
Fixed instance positioning when column and row index lookups returned -1 for partially enabled property sets.
Combinations Grid generation — renders every Cartesian product of selected Variant properties as live instances in a structured table frame.
Spanning column and row headers — header cells automatically merge adjacent identical values just like a spreadsheet.
Three-layer frame structure: Foundation (locked headers), Instances (editable clones), Text Labels (locked labels).
Layout direction: Horizontal (all properties as columns) and Vertical (first property as column, rest as rows).
Viewport-aware positioning — tables scroll into view after generation.
Freemium model — 10 free generations with a one-time upgrade for unlimited access.
Analytics integration for usage tracking and payment flow.
