Once you’ve located the earlier revision, you have some options with how to use it. I like to keep the local copies of my project file in the same place as it helps me stay organized. You can then move this file to another location on your local device. You can right-click on this previous revision in the file and click Explore to locate it on your local machine. Once you open up this earlier revision of your schematic, it will appear in the Projects panel’s Free Documents section. Comparing two revisions of a schematic in Altium Designer. As you can see in the Comment section of the Storage Manager panel (see above image), one of the LEDs was removed from the schematic. The current revision only has two indicator LEDs. The earlier revision of the schematic contains three indicator LEDs in the zoomed-in portion of the schematic in the current revision. You can then tile the windows so that you can compare the two revisions side-by-side, as shown in the image below. To access one of the revisions, simply double click on the earlier revision, and it will open in the Schematic Editor. Revisions of your previous files can be seen in the Storage Manager panel in Altium Designer. This revision is currently open in the background window it is the current revision of the schematic attached to my project. I’ve outlined the current revision of this particular schematic file in a red box (see below).
When I open the Storage Manager panel, I can see local and online revisions of my schematic sheets. In the image below, I’ve opened one of my Altium 365 projects in Altium Designer. You can access these different revisions in the Storage Manager panel in Altium Designer. When you open an Altium Designer project, you can access older revisions of your design files stored on your local machine and online. Whenever you make changes to a schematic, PCB document, or another file, a previous revision will be stored on Altium 365.
So this begs the question, where can I find earlier revisions of design files? Everything you see in your Workspace web instance is the most recent revision of your design files. When you open your Workspace web instance on Altium 365, you won’t see your previous revisions of your schematic files. If you’ve never used revision control for PCB design, here are some guidelines for local and server-managed revision control in your Altium 365 Workspace. If you need to revert to an earlier revision of a local file, you can include this previous revision in your Workspace web instance on Altium 365. You can revert to copies of design files within Altium Designer. You can easily roll back to earlier revisions of a design, clone a current project, and access a previous revision. Altium 365 enables the same capabilities for revision control.
