$set TextInput value outside a Repeater Component

[tangjh]

Is it possible to set a TextInput field that is outside of a repeater in the same form?
I tried $set but it is for that repeat component.
I tried $livewire->data and the data is updated but it doesn't update the UI TextInput field.

Hey, you can $set or $get outside of a repeater component by setting the final parameter to be true. This enables "absolute" state paths instead of those relative to the current component.

Imagine we had a component with the state path data.repeater.item1.first_name:

• $get('last_name') would return the value of data.repeater.item1.last_name
• $get('data.title', true) would return the value of data.title, not data.repeater.item1.data.title

So in your case, you probably want something like $set('data.FIELD_NAME', $value, true).

Thanks! I could have miss the documentation.
