At the moment, if I update a Grid, and that Grid is part of a scene, and that scene is used across numerous Workspaces, the process is way too slow IMO.

1. Update Grid and Export
2. Change Workspaces
3. Import Grid
4. Open Scene Editor
5. Assign New Grid to Scene
6. Back to Content Manager
7. Delete Old Grid
8. Rename new Grid (remove ‘import’ or ‘copy’)
9. Repeat for all Workspaces

It could look like this:

1. Update Grid and Export
2. Change Workspaces
3. Import Grid
4. Swipe right ‘Replace Grid’

Result: The new Grid named ‘xx import’ or ‘xx copy’ replaces the Grid with the name ‘xx’ and gets renamed. The ‘xx’ Grid is deleted. With a prompt ‘This action cannot be undone’.

OK, thanks for the tip - totally makes sense. I have added this to the To Do list.
