Matching Override

While Frontier's automatic matching is highly effective, there may be instances where you need to tailor the suggestions to better fit your project requirements or design nuances. Frontier provides an easy-to-use override feature that allows you to manually adjust the component matches.

Benefits of Using the Override Feature:

  • Customization: Tailor component matches to perfectly align with your specific project needs and design requirements.
  • Control: Maintain full control over the automated process, ensuring the output is as you intend.

How to Override a Component Match:

  • You must first access the Override Options by navigating to the Component List located in the right panel

  • The next step is to select a Component to Override, once you click on the component you would like to Override, you will notice a “Nested Components” tag, by clicking on it you will be able to jump to the first nested component of your selection

  • Click on the “Auto Match” tag to open the Override dropdown menu, which displays a list of automatically matched candidates along with a search field for exploring alternatives.

  • On this list you will be able to review potential candidates for an override, Frontier will display the top 3 candidates that had the highest similarity score.

  • If the pre-selected match isn’t perfect, it is possible to choose a better suited existing component suggestion, it is also possible to use the search functionality to select another option from your codebase.

  • To confirm the changes, click on the “Update Code” button. Frontier will then update the code suggestions to reflect your manual Overrides, which you can review to ensure they meet your expectations.
