I might be misunderstanding globals but I have made a Standard component into a global so I can drop the same menu on every page but it looks like I can only create 3 pages with that menu on it?  
Also, out of interest I dropped the same Standard component on a page twice. Now if it try and delete it I get the error attached

and I can’t delete it again.

I had another play with this.  
I already have a Standard menu on my page. If I drop another one on the page (Some may say why would you but I have not tried other components) and make it Global I can then not delete it from the page. I have to remove it as a global and I can then delete it off the page.

Hi @RussOggi255,

Thanks for the bug report and yes, we’ve managed to reproduce the issue here — We’ll get it fixed in the next couple of betas.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
