why When i create a reusable element the elements within the reusable element do not stay. The only thing that shows is the group, nothing within it. What it should look like: ![Screenshot (165)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/bubble/original/3X/1/2/127502c4c8f333d3a5451f3c3990a743418d4137.png) What it looks like:: ![Screenshot (166)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/bubble/original/3X/b/7/b7419b50d8f975ee84b73a12f7256b5a38b3aa77.png) Please explain because so far my experience with Bubble is the absolute worst. I’ve dealt with multiple no code platforms and Bubble definitely has the worst UI/UX ---

Hi! Bubbler with 3 Bubble apps under my belt. It takes a while to get used to the UI/UX of Bubble but by far it’s the most flexible among it’s peers. It will look like that in the editor. Have u tested if the reusable is working as intended in Preview? ---

Hard to pinpoint the issue but it does look like a visibility issue. Some things to check: . Is there another element in front that is blocking it? . Check the boxes for both Fit height/width to content . Is there a workflow or conditional that is triggering it to disable visibility? ---

haven’t added any workflows, still designing it. Everything is good with width/height no additional groups/elements covering it ---

no but if i copy and paste the element instead of converting it into a “reusable element” it shows in the editor ---
