How To Name A Version?
You probably noticed the dropdown on the Version history page that said “All Versions”. Here:
Yes, you can name a version.
Just click the three dots (â‹®) on any version you want.
Click on “Name this version“.
Name it anything you want …
Btw, you see that strikethrough I made in the document, you can learn how to do that here.
Things To Know
•••
The edit history timeline in Google Docs uses color-coded bars to distinguish between different types of edits and the collaborators who made them.
Before restoring a previous version, you can preview it to ensure it is correct. Click on the desired edit bar to open a preview.
The edit history feature is particularly beneficial when multiple team members are working on the same document. It helps in avoiding merge conflicts by providing a clear timeline of changes.
Summary
Go to the File menu and select Version history, or use the quick keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+Shift+H. This will open a pane on the right side of your screen, showing a timeline of all the edits made to the document.
