I use objects in my lists a lot. Whenever I want to add a new property to the objects, I have to add it by hand for all the items in the list. Instead, whenever I add a property, could Thunkable identify whether it is in a list and give a popup/alert to ask whether I want to add that property to all…

I went through a similar situation. I ended up saving my objects to Firebase and then used a similar block that I shared to add new properties. You could do the same with stored variable, too.

Please my workaround Thunkable When the app starts, it creates 3 objects with name and gender as properties. The middle object has an extra property, age. When the button is clicked, the property age is added to the other two objects. I added a list viewer to see the properties of the first objec…

Please don’t apologize. Yes, that’s what I meant, see the example given above.

Thats a great approach! It’s not absolutely necessary at the moment, but the next time I’m in this situation, I’ll do it this way. Thanks!

@jane would it be possible to add this feature? No hurry, it just helps me thunk quicker.
