Snapshots & versions ​

Every artifact you edit in MotherFluxer keeps a history. The Snapshot menu (the clock icon in the editor topbar) is where you save versions, jump between them, revert, and export. This guide walks through each action.

Save your work ​

Open the Snapshot menu and choose how to save:

  • Save as new — Commit the current state as a fresh version in your history. Use this when you've reached a result worth keeping and want to move forward from it.
  • Save draft — Stash an in-progress state without promoting it to a full version. Drafts let you step away and come back without losing changes or cluttering your history.

Saving creates a point you can always return to. Save often — there's no penalty for keeping many versions, and each one is a safe place to jump back to later.

Browse version history ​

Open the Snapshot menu and look at the version history list. Each entry is a saved point in time, newest at the top. From the list you can:

  • Preview a version to see what the artifact looked like at that point.
  • Switch to a version to load it into the editor.
  • Edit a prior version once you've switched to it — your next changes branch forward from there.

Browsing is non-destructive. Looking at or switching to an older version never deletes the newer ones; they stay in your history.

Revert to an earlier version ​

When you want to undo a direction entirely and go back to how things were:

  1. Open the Snapshot menu.
  2. Find the version you want in the history list.
  3. Switch to that version, then Revert to make it your current working state.

Reverting brings an earlier version back as your active version. Because every version is preserved, you can always move forward again to a later one if you change your mind.

Undo and redo single steps ​

For small, in-the-moment corrections, you don't need a full version. Use Undo and Redo in the editor topbar:

  • Undo steps back through your most recent individual edits, one at a time.
  • Redo re-applies a step you just undid.

Undo/Redo are for fine-grained, per-step changes within your current editing session. The Snapshot menu is for saving and managing whole versions you want to keep.

Export from the Snapshot menu ​

For most artifact types — images, video, documents, 3D, Apps, and more — export lives inside the Snapshot menu. Open it and choose the export option to download or share your work in the available formats.

Audio is the exception. Audio artifacts have their own dedicated Export dialog rather than exporting from the Snapshot menu. Open that dialog from the audio editor to render and download your track.
