I guess many people have encountered the same problem: set a focus group menu in the repeating group, and use this focus group menu to control the specify cell.
I have tried many solutions for this problem, including using a plugin to call the RG data, or turning the focus group into a reusable element, but in any case, these methods are always accompanied by complex logic and are not intuitive.
By chance, I found another easy way.
step1: Create a focus group and set a parent group for it.
Step2: Drag step1 to RG
Step3: ungroup the focus group of step1
Step4: The focus group can be linked to a specific cell, and the value can be called at any time.
I recorded a video for this. You can check the effect and hope this helps.
I would caution against relying on this behavior, since I think you’ve actually stumbled upon a bug. I don’t think a Group Focus (GF) is supposed to be nestable within another container. It’s my understanding that a GF should only ever reside at the root of the hierarchy (just like a Floating Group).
Anyway, I have reported this issue to the Bubble team, so I guess we’ll know soon whether or not this behavior is intended. (I suspect it’s not.)
