Sharing knob values across stories #8
Description
I've scoured the forum here as well as resources online, but can't seem to find an answer. How would I go about sharing knob values across different COMPONENTS? (ex. User navigates to a button component in Storybook and chooses to make it green, they then navigate to a form component -which includes the prev button as a subcomponent- and the button in there appears green).
I do not wish to use Storybook Controls as they do not support groups and thus make the interface very cumbersome for components with many settings.
Thanks so much guys!

FYI, we’ve released
addon-controlsin Storybook 6.0. Controls are portable, auto-generated knobs that are intended to replaceaddon-knobs, which are slated for deprecation.Please upgrade and try out controls today!
Regarding your question, controls are based on something called args: https://storybook.js.org/blog/introducing-storybook-args/
Args are designed to be re-used and composed across stories: https://storybook.js.org/docs/react/writing-stories/args#args-composition
