Components Double Click

I have a component for a button it has a hover state and a tap state which changes it’s size. Now when I go back to parent and set a tap animation on that component I have to double click it fast to trigger the change. Anyone having a similar issue or a workaround.

Thanks.

I’d say to use messages, so the tap on the parent sends a message to the component to change to the expanded state, check the attached file.
