What do you guys think?

My current workflow is that I have one page for all components and I have one page for all frames that are used directly in preview. So now, if I want to use some components as overlays, I have to move them from my components page and into my preview-frames page. I’m just wondering what is the recommended workflow… Should I keep my components in my components page and make instances to be p…
