How do I edit the email templates in an Email Drip Campaign?

Along with  editing and creating email campaigns individually, by template  you can also edit the email templates already in a drip from the Email Drip Campaign editor. This helps streamline your edits so you're not switching back-and-forth between pages. 

-If you'd like to edit emails in a Drip as you're about to run it for just that one-time change, you'll use the Campaigns tab.
-If you need a more permanent edit saved to a template for future use, go to the Setup tab to change a template.
