This is a great improvement on the original.
I've made some more suggestions, but it is always a balance between how far you go with changing things and the amount of time it will take.
As always, many of the comments are subjective - there is no right or wrong answer.
I feel that this is a really difficult thing to document - the UX seems to be inconsistent in where actions take place and whether they are icons or words. It surprises me for a newly designed UX. I think that we are doing the best job we can in explaining it - and your changes make it much clearer. Thanks.

Perhaps to make it clearer that this is an icon you could say something like:
"Whether this is the Studio Pro target"? Otherwise the customer could be looking for this particular text (at least that is what I did 😀)

If you are the Technical Contact, you can use **Environment Settings** to choose the default target for the deployment package. If you do not select a target, the .mda package is built and uploaded without being deployed. |

It's not clear to me how to get to this bit. Have I just missed it?

I think that there should probably be links to these package manipulation sections from the Deployment Package Actions section.
But I understand why they are separate sections and we don't try to describe them fully within that section.
3. In the **Select Revision** tab, select the branch revision. | ||

1. On the [Deployment Packages tab](#deployment-packages-tab), click **Create a Package**. This launches the **Create a Package** wizard. | ||
2. On the **Select Branch** tab, select the branch on which to base the build. |
