New to version control? Start with What is version control?, then Getting started. Everything after that is short, one-topic pages: a page per feature, a page per plugin panel, and the guardrails that keep your work safe.

Using each feature

Seeing exactly what changed

Pick any two versions and see them side by side, or drag a slider across the canvas to swipe between them.

  1. Open History.

    Pick any two versions to compare.

  2. Choose a view.

    Side-by-side, or the swipe slider. Both keep zoom and pan in sync.

  3. Click a layer.

    See its type, visibility, opacity, and blend mode.

Changed pixels are outlined for you, layer by layer, so you never have to guess what moved.
