Someone asked me a question if the File menu > show history command could be restricted to show only certain parts of the saved history of the RVT project. Typically a Revit project keeps the history of all the saves along with the comments (if any). Here is chart that shows the RVT behavior in various scenarios.
File type | Show History | Backups |
Central File | All STC info since its beginning | No of backups based on the number entered while doing the first save as. (default 20) |
Local File | All STC and local save info since its beginning | ditto |
“detach from central” option while opening a file | copies history from original file | all backups lost from original |
“save as” | Retains only STC history info. | all backups lost from original |
“save as” with “Make this a central file after save” option | Loses all history | all backups lost from original |
