As for The Versions Window for the COMSOL Desktop Model, the Versions window in the Model Manager workspace is used to visualize how one version has progressed to the next by going upward in the table until reaching the latest version on the selected branch. Versions saved on a parent branch after the selected branch was created are not included in the table by the assumption that they correspond to independent work done in parallel and whose changes are not reflected in the latest version.
|
You can see all versions of an item, irrespective of branch, by adding the item to The Maintenance Window in the Model Manager workspace. From the window, you gain a complete overview of the full footprint of the item in the database, but may lose a sense of how the item has evolved over time.
