What happens at import or export if a word has 2 different spellings, one in Sign Puddle and one in SignWriter studio? More generally, how does SignWriter studio manage if the same signs are imported more than once?

Hi all,
The Suggest Sign Spelling feature is easy to use but just a few
tips just the same.
Open a sign from the Dictionary in the Sign Editor
Click on each of the hand to make sure that they are entered as
right or left. In the Chooser you can see whether it is a right or
left hand. If it isn't right, then correct it in the chooser, you
may need to fix the rotation after changing the hand. Then click
add replace to replace the symbol in the sign with the one from the
Chooser. The sign should look exactly the same as before.
Then click on suggestion. If a symbol's characteristics cannot be
determined by the symbol itself or what it can get from the context
of the sign, it will ask for clarification. Click either yes or no
as appropriate.
And the symbols will be added to the Spelling area in the suggested
order.
Make any adjustments necessary to the spelling and click Accept to
save the changes.
If you don't want the suggestion to take into account all symbols in
the sign, drag a box to select the symbols that you do want taken
into account.
The suggestion feature does well with simple signs with fewer
symbols.
Please let me know if you find any areas where there can be
improvement.
Thanks
