Alternate Futures

[Trinity]

Sorry cannot locate

" Alternate Futures for Document history have been added. Traditionally, if you roll back the undo history then do something else all your changes after that point have been lost.  Photo will now display a small branch icon in the history tab when you do this. Pressing that button will   cycle between all the different futures after that history entry.-- meaning you will never lose any work you have done."

Where is this branch icon?

1. do some stuff (say 14 things)
2. undo some of it (say 4 of them)
3. do something else (like 7 more)
   (note an icon appears at the point #10 you had gone back to)
4. in the undo history switch between them using the icon tin the history tab at position #10.

You will see the document can be toggled between the original 14 actions or the alternative 17 actions. Any number of alternative histories can be used at the moment. Alternative futures cannot be forgotten yet.

These multiple histories can even be saved, if you save your document with document history.

This needs a lot of thrashing.... Please report anything it does wrong.

So far so good on Beta 188. I haven't managed to fault it yet. Very useful function, thank you!
