History and Version Control

Get back on track after unintended changes in your project.

Overview

Flux provides two main ways to reverse changes in your design. For recent edits, you can use Undo or Redo. For more substantial modifications, you can revert the project to a previous version using the Change History feature.

Undo and Redo

Use the Undo function to revert recent changes in your current session. Use the Redo function to restore actions reverted by Undo. Redo only works after using Undo and before making any further changes. You can only undo or redo your own actions from your current browser tab. You cannot undo or redo the actions of collaborators.

You can access Undo and Redo in the interface or with keyboard shortcuts. Here's how:

In the interface:

1. Click on the Flux menu in the top left.
2. Click on Undo or Redo.

Using keyboard shortcuts:

• On Mac:

  • To Undo, tap ⌘ **Z** .
  • To Redo, tap **⇧** ⌘ Z .

• On Windows:

  • To Undo, tap Ctrl Z .
  • To Redo, tap Shift Ctrl Z .

The Change History

Use the Change History to revert more substantial changes, or when you want a visual interface to browse changes.

Restoring a Previous Version

When to Use Undo, Redo, or the Change History

Here are some example scenarios where you might want to use Undo, Redo, or the Change History:

• You accidentally delete your layout. Use Undo or browse versions in the Change History.
• A rule you knew was there is missing. Browse version in the Change History and restore a version where the rule is present.
• A collaborator made a change you don't like. Use the Change History to restore a pervious version which you do like.
• You're not sure you like a change you made. Use Undo and Redo to toggle between the changes.
