Description

To update a Style Variation, I tried: Editor>Create a Style Variation. Name is the same as the active style, (the one I just updated with headings are now Camel Case). Get message 'Style Variation Already Exists'. Is there a way to update and overwrite a variation? Or should I just create a new Variation with a new name, and delete the orig. from the Styles folder?
Many thanks,

Research direction

Reproduce the workflow described in Editor > Create a Style Variation, using an existing variation name after changing headings to Camel Case. Determine whether the requested behavior is an update/overwrite feature or whether guidance should explain creating and deleting a variation; done means the expected behavior is implemented or clearly documented.
