Don't change the way to transfer information

Please keep the visual of "sliding" information from left to right. This is consistent with other functions (i.e. Source Linker) and I think it gives the beginning user a feeling for where the information is going.

    @CherylMillerBlack can I get your thoughts on the three column suggestion here?

    The three columns are better than the "improved" version. Currently, I can't really tell what's being kept and what is not. I assume it's whichever has the radio button, but that really isn't clear. And I can't tell what's going on as far as families. Showing what your final profile looks like is REALLY important.

    However, I think the three columns is overkill. I think it's enough to say "Whatever is in the right-hand column is what you keep." That works for Source Linker, and it's familiar so it's not overwhelming. (Three columns might actually be more overwhelming than two.)

    @CherylMillerBlack Thanks for the feedback!

    While it is familiar to have just two columns, our user testing has shown a lot of users really like the three column layout for clarity.

    We are adding some documentation to add clarity around the new radio buttons for selections

    Thanks again!
