Comparing and opening snapshots in the desktop Process Designer (deprecated)

You can compare previously created snapshots in the Process Designer desktop editor. You can see information about the snapshots, such as the time they were created and any processes that were added to them. You can also open a snapshot to view the contents at that particular point in time. For example, if you want to see a BPD or service diagram in a previous snapshot.

To compare snapshots:

1. Open the process application or toolkit in the desktop Process Designer.
   The current snapshot (tip) opens. All the snapshots of the process application or toolkit are listed under Revision History.
2. To view new or changed library items in each snapshot, click the circle icon in the Revision History header.
   Note: To return to the list of snapshots, click the snapshot icon in the Revision History header.
3. To view the state of an entire process application or toolkit as of a particular snapshot, click the icon next to the snapshot in the Revision History.
   The snapshot opens in read-only mode. The Designer displays a message in the toolbar to indicate that it is showing the contents of the entire process application as they existed when the snapshot was created. While this message is displayed, you can examine the library contents, but you cannot make changes.
4. To get back to the current state of your process application or toolkit, click the icon next to the message.
