# Fix Properties Panel Element Detection (COMPLETED)
To fix the element detection issue, reread CLAUDE.md first.
## Problem Analysis
The properties panel has timing issues detecting rendered elements because:
1. Elements are rendered asynchronously via lit's `render()` in the dashboard
2. Properties panel tries to find elements immediately without waiting for render completion
3. Element search only looks at direct children, missing nested/shadow DOM elements
## Implementation Plan
### 1. Add proper synchronization ✅
- Add a delay or await render completion before element detection
- Use MutationObserver or lit's updateComplete promises
### 2. Improve element search algorithm ✅
- Search recursively through all descendants, not just direct children
- Handle shadow DOM boundaries properly
- Support elements wrapped in containers
### 3. Add retry mechanism ✅
- If element not found, retry after a delay
- Add maximum retry attempts to prevent infinite loops
- Clear error state when element is eventually found
## Code Changes Required
1. Modify `wcc-properties.ts` createProperties() method ✅
2. Add element search utility function ✅
3. Improve error handling and user feedback ✅
# Demo Wrapper Implementation (COMPLETED)
## Created DeesDemoWrapper Component
- Location: ts_demotools/demotools.ts
- Allows wrapping demo elements with post-render functionality
- Provides runAfterRender callback that receives ALL slotted elements as HTMLCollection
- Uses display: contents to not affect layout
- Handles timing automatically with 50ms delay after firstUpdated
- Supports both sync and async callbacks
- Exports available at @design.estate/dees-wcctools/demotools (lowercase)
# Documentation Update (COMPLETED)
## Updated readme.md with:
- Comprehensive overview with feature highlights
- Quick start guide with code examples
- Detailed feature documentation
- Advanced demo tools usage
- Best practices and guidelines
- API reference
- Browser support information
- Complete examples for all major features
# Enhanced DemoWrapper (COMPLETED)
## Modified runAfterRender callback:
- Now receives HTMLCollection of ALL slotted elements instead of just the first one
- Allows access to complete slotted DOM structure
- Updated documentation with correct import path (lowercase 'demotools')
- Examples show how to work with multiple slotted elements
- Maintains backward compatibility by accessing elements via index
