When a resource from the Library is updated/replaced, it is also automatically updated in the Layer stack (in the project).

I'm hoping for a way to see which resource is connected to which layer/mask.

Sometimes when I update SP, a few of my blur and warp effects get corrupted. And when some don't, it gets extremely confusing knowing which effect (resource) to update without corrupting a good one.

For instance below. I know the bottom two blurs are not apart of this texture set, however, which blur effect is associated in my "Seam Line" layer? Of course I can see in the main properties tool, the blur is outdated, but when I manually replace it, all settings are reset....unlike when using the updater, the settings usually transfer over.
