Creating trait with Style Manager property UI
Unfortunately, it's not yet possible, but there is a plan to add soon a new UI module that should allow the reuse of UI elements
Read full answer below โQuestion
I have a component using the background-url Style Manager property: I would like to reuse this UI that is shown in the Style Manager for a background URL trait that shows up under "Settings": Is it possible to make a Style Manager property behave like a trait and show up in the "Settings" section, or would I have to create a new trait with this UI? Thanks.
