### Replace Selected Layer

You can replace a selected Layer in your document by searching another Symbol and holding `option` / `alt` when hitting `return`.

### Search in Libraries

To filter a certain set of Symbols, type `/` and select a Library or choose `Document Only`. When a filter is applied, you can undo the filter by clicking the `×` icon, or hitting the `delete` key.
