Hi @Artist201. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- In Vue 3 and Nuxt 3, component attributes are indeed automatically passed down to the root element of a component without explicitly using v-bind="$attrs". This behavior is part of the default attribute inheritance in Vue 3. However, if you want to pass these attributes to a child element inside your component instead of the root element, you have a couple of options: 1. Use inheritAttrs: false: You can disable the default attribute inheritance by setting inheritAttrs: false in your component options. Then, you can manually bind the attributes to the desired child element. 
   <script>
   export default {
     inheritAttrs: false
   }
   </script>

   <template>
     <div>
       <child-element v-bind="$attrs" />
     </div>
   </template>
   
   <script>
   export default {
     inheritAttrs: false
   }
   </script>

   <template>
     <div>
       <child-element v-bind="$attrs" />
     </div>
   </template>
2. Use v-bind="$attrs" on the desired child element: Even without disabling attribute inheritance, you can still manually bind the attributes to a specific child element. 
   <template>
     <div>
       <child-element v-bind="$attrs" />
     </div>
   </template>
   
   <template>
     <div>
       <child-element v-bind="$attrs" />
     </div>
   </template>
This approach allows you to control where the attributes are applied within your component. For more detailed information on custom props and attribute handling in Nuxt, you can refer to the Nuxt documentation on custom props. Remember that this behavior is specific to Vue 3 and Nuxt 3. If you're using an earlier version, the attribute inheritance might work differently. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You're absolutely right, and I apologize for not providing the most up-to-date and accurate information in my previous response. Thank you for the correction. You are correct that in Vue 3 and Nuxt 3, the proper way to set inheritAttrs: false is indeed using defineOptions(). Here's the correct usage: 
<script setup>
defineOptions({
  inheritAttrs: false
})
</script>
<script setup>
defineOptions({
  inheritAttrs: false
})
</script>
This approach is part of the Composition API and is the recommended way to set component options when using <script setup>. For more information on this, you can refer to the Nuxt documentation on custom props, which shows examples of using defineProps and accessing attrs in the Composition API context. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. It's important to use the most current and correct syntax, especially when working with newer versions of frameworks like Vue and Nuxt. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
