What is version history?
Every time you make significant changes to a spot, RangeSharp can save a snapshot of the range data. These snapshots form a version history that lets you go back to a previous state if needed.
Viewing version history
- Select a spot in the strategy tree.
- In the detail panel (right side), look for the Version History section.
- You’ll see a list of saved snapshots with timestamps.
Restoring a previous version
Find the version you want
Browse the version list and find the snapshot you want to restore.
Click Restore
Click Restore next to the version. The grid updates to show the restored range data.
The current state is preserved
Restoring a version doesn’t delete your current work — it creates a new snapshot of the current state before applying the restore. You can always go back.
When versions are saved
Version snapshots are created:
- When you import data over an existing range
- When you restore a previous version
- At other significant change points
Version history vs. undo
| Feature | Undo (⌘Z) | Version history |
|---|
| Scope | Individual cell changes | Full range snapshots |
| Depth | Up to 100 levels per session | Persisted across sessions |
| Persistence | Lost when you leave the page | Saved permanently |
| Use case | Quick “oops, wrong cell” fixes | Reverting to a known-good state |
Use undo for small mistakes during an editing session. Use version history when you want to revert to a completely different state of the range — for example, after an import that didn’t work out.
