If you want to experiment with changes to a running route, you can make the edits directly from JMX Navigator. The tooling opens the context file containing the route in the route editor. When your changes are saved, they take effect immediately.
The changes are made to the in-memory model of the running context, but are not persisted in the original project or anywhere else.
