Object History

Changes made to the object tree can be automatically recorded in the object history. The history is visible in the main window on the right on the Journal tab, or in the journal at the bottom of the window on the Properties and Objects. The Diary and Properties tabs display only the records related to the object that is currently selected in the tree. On the Objects tab the journal displays entries related to all objects that are selected in the top part of the window on the Objects tab.

When a new object is created or an object is copied, an entry is made in the history of both the created object and the object in which the new object was created.

When moving object A to another location in the tree, a history entry is created for the following objects:

  • in object A
  • in its parent object (i.e. where it was removed from)
  • in the object to which object A was moved

Some records contain information about the related object, e.g. when an object is moved to another location, the record "Moved to name of the target object". You can find the target object in the tree by right-clicking on the record and selecting Mark in tree. This will display the object in the tree in bold font.

Note:
History entries older than 3 months are automatically moved to the archive. Archived records do not appear in the object history. If you want to view the archive as well, enable the Table - View Archive option in the local menu, or press the button in the bottom right of the table.
