Been playing around with Canvas and ran into issues with saving the form. The program seems to be designed only with auto-save. I have made changes to a form and moved over to a separate machine and my changes were not present. I have closed the form only to loose my changes. Is there any thoughts to adding a "Save" similar to the dashboards? ---

Can you please elaborate further - version, steps taken , screenshot, logs etc ? Thanks Rashmi ---
