Version history: find any scene you've cut, and see what changed.

  • Deleted scenes. A new tab lists every scene that's in an earlier version of your script but not in it now, newest-deleted first. Each one shows when it was last there and a preview, with Show text and Put back. Put back returns the scene where it used to be, between its old neighbours, and one Undo takes it back out. You can filter the list, and the palette finds it if you type "show all versions".
  • Show changes. A Changes toggle on the Script pane marks what you've added and removed on your live pages, compared with your last save or a version you choose. Added lines get a + bar, and removed lines become a "− 2 lines removed" marker that opens to show them. It never prints or exports, and it's off each time you open Drafter.
  • A GitHub-style Changes view in Compare.
    • Removed lines are red with a −, added lines are green with a +, and the exact words that changed are struck through or underlined.
    • Unchanged stretches fold away, and changes are grouped under their scene with Go to scene.
    • Choose one column or side by side.
    • A blue and orange color choice in Settings helps if red and green are hard to tell apart.
    • Compare's Pages view keeps its asterisks in the margin, as before.
  • History of this scene. Open it from the Outline, Cards, the Structure strip or the palette to see every version of one scene, even through a renamed heading. Each version shows as a diff. Use this version takes a snapshot first and is one Undo.
  • Private and quick. Your versions are read in the background on your device, and what Drafter learns is kept in a cache that's removed with the script. A 120-page script with 300 saved versions is read in about a second.
