Allow to review component updates of a specific page only

When I have library updates available for my file, sometimes I just want to apply them to a specific page – not to the whole document.

The Updates panel lets you select Current page, and as a result you only see which components of the current page have some update available. All good so far.

Now if you want to review changes of a component rather than blindly click Update, you select the component in the list and end up in the second-level, Review updates panel. The trouble is: At this point the Current page filter is forgotten and you can only review all the instances of the document.

How can I review one by one the instances of the current page only?

Motivation: I would like to always review and update stuff on the local components page of my file, because if I update this first, a lot of updates will propagate automatically to the rest of the file, saving me a lot of work.

Thanks for the insightful suggestions! It would be a great tool if we can implement that. Let’s see how others respond to your request.

Agreed. Our entire design community could really use this feature at our company. Please.

I’m also having this problem. I don’t want to go through every instance of a component on the page I’m on when I want to update only the components on a specific page. Because I use versions and I want to also have the old designs available.

It would be acceptable if I could go through the instances and update them in the “Review updates “ panel. But here it’s even worse because the instances aren’t in order… Instance 1 of 34 could be on the 3rd page, that instance 4 could be on the 1st page...I’d have to go through 34 instances to find the last 4 on a specific page…
 

A feature like “Update on current page only” would be much needed.

The solution I found is to detach the instances on the pages I’d like them to remain unchanged.
