Viewing and editing content variations in communications
When you open a communication that contains multiple content variations, the Message Editor toolbar indicates which variation field is currently enabled in the communication and it lists the variation values available for the field. Selecting a different variation value simultaneously changes the variation value for every content element in the communication that uses the variation field. Content elements configured to use other variation fields display their default variations.
