Your drawings never change. What changes is your reading of them, and that deserves a record. A phase is where the team works. A version is the moment you all agreed, kept exactly as it was.
Nothing to configure and no workflow to design. One glance at the top of the sidebar tells you whether work can happen.
The working state. Draw, label, connect, parse, review — everything is live. Every project starts here, and comes back here after each version. There is only ever one, which is why it is the phase and never phase 3.
Everything stays readable and nothing can be changed. Signed-off work cannot be edited later, not even by accident.
A phase becomes a version, the version starts the next phase, and on it goes. Each version is a complete snapshot of the project at the moment it was frozen — not a diff, not a partial save.
Enough to reproduce the moment. Not a note about it — the thing itself.
All the boxes, relationships and parsed text exactly as they stood. Locked, so the snapshot stays true.
A copy of the label set as it was. Rename or reorganise your labels later and the old version still reads the way it was reviewed.
Files are never duplicated and never deleted by versioning. A version costs you the annotations, never the drawings.
This is the whole idea. Work moves forward and labels get renamed, corrected and reorganised — and every version still reads the way it read on the day it was frozen.
While a version holds the project, you choose how the next round of work begins.
Bring the frozen work forward and continue from where you stopped. The version stays untouched behind you, so you can always compare.
A blank layer on every drawing. For a second pass done independently, or a different reading of the same set.
This is the part people worry about, so it is not left to careful reading. Before anything happens, the system checks whether the work exists anywhere else — and tells you which of these two it is about to do.
A locked layer opens like any other. Read every box, every relationship and all the parsed text, follow the links, filter and inspect. The controls that would change something are simply not there.
Open the drawing, browse the components, expand the relationships, scroll the parsed text. Review a finished phase in full, any time.
No drawing, no editing, no deleting, no re-running the parser. What was agreed stays exactly as agreed.
Work in an open phase for as long as you like, freeze it when the team agrees, and the frozen copy stays readable and unchangeable while the next phase moves on.
