Replace or Quick Replace - no option to select from files

I set this as a bug as I'm sure I used to be able to do this a few weeks/a month ago?

When I select an image in a timeline, I can select replace or do this through the batch quick replace option. However, in the list of sources that are available to select from, there's no files or uploads option. So there's no way I can now see to replace an image with something already uploaded. Am I missing something or has something changed? There NEEDS to be this option. Why would I then have to find a previously uploaded image, upload it again (wasting mine and your bandwidth and storage space). Can you please bring this option back ASAP.

This isn't OS or browser dependent - but here are my specs:

Firefox 146.0 (64 bit) OR Edge 143.0.3650.80

Windows 11

This behaviour is by omission I believe - there isn't a files or uploads option in the list of replacement sources.

Hi @Silicon Pixel,

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We completely understand your frustration 😔—being unable to select previously uploaded files during Replace or Quick Replace clearly disrupts workflow and causes unnecessary re-uploads.

To help our engineering team investigate this further, could you please provide:

Your platform and app version (Web, Windows, Mac, iPad, etc.)
Whether this happens on all projects or just specific ones
A screenshot or screen recording showing the missing option

We’ve shared your case with the engineering team, and your input will help prioritize the restoration of this functionality.
