Before you start
Before setting up Global Edits, please ensure you meet the following requirements:

- You are working on a template where you need to apply consistent edits across multiple screens.
How to use Global Edits
- Open up your Walnut template.
- Make an edit to any element: text, image, variable, or interaction.
- When prompted, choose whether to apply the edit to similar elements on other screens.
- For newly added screens, Walnut will automatically suggest applying relevant shared edits.
Migrate from Smart Objects to Global edits

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with Global Edits, try these common solutions:
Edits not applying to all screens:
- Ensure the elements are similar enough for Walnut to recognize them as the same.
- Check if you've accidentally skipped the prompt to apply edits to other screens.
