Enhancement: Update a StyleBook definition inline

Updating a StyleBook definition inline allows you to modify the StyleBook without upgrading its version. You can now update the custom StyleBook definitions that are imported from a StyleBook bundle. And, you can also update a StyleBook definition or StyleBook bundle that has configuration packs with it. Earlier, you were only able to update StyleBook definitions that are imported as a file.

Note

Before you update the StyleBook definition, ensure it is backward compatible. So, all parameters can be retained in the updated StyleBook. And, the newly added parameters appear as optional.

For more information, seeUpdate custom StyleBooks.
