Change stencil for existing form

I have an existing form that was created with the default form stencil.  I now have a requirement that calls for a custom control.  I have created a new stencil with this control.  Is there a way to update the existing form to use the new stencil or do I have to recreate the form?

Thanks,
Daniel

I don't think that the feature to switch between stencils is currently available in the product. However it will be a very useful feature, I agree!

As of now, the options that I can think of are
Option 1 -
1) Download your existing form
2) Edit the downloaded form json file and change the "stencilSetId" value to your new stencil id (SELECT * FROM STENCIL_SET)
3) Import the modified form json file and continue working on it.

Option 2- Recreate the form from new stencil

Option 3 - Modify the form JSON data directly in database and set "stencilSetId" to your new stencil id. ***THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDED OPTION ****
