Updating Blueprints #
When there is a new version of the blueprint released you can simply follow the same steps as improting a blueprint.
The files will automatically change. After importing the new verison of the blueprint you need to apply it on the card/page where you are using the old version.
Therefore you go into edit mode and edit the card/page. Wait a moment and the new version will be loaded.
Then submit changes and the new blueprint is used.
