Saving & versions

Boards save as .rmic files, and every board keeps a version history.

  • Save (Ctrl + S) and Save As (Ctrl + Shift + S) write the board to a .rmic file. An unsaved board stays “Untitled” until its first save.
  • Open (Ctrl + O) loads an existing .rmic, and New (Ctrl + N) starts a blank board.

The Canvases launcher is a thumbnail gallery of your boards so you can pick up where you left off. It opens at launch when you start without a specific file, and you can reopen it any time from the Home button in the top bar. It stays open alongside the canvas rather than blocking it.

Down the left side it lists three sources:

  • Recent: the boards you opened most recently.
  • Favorites: a separate, pinned list that survives clearing Recent. Click a card’s star (or right-click it) to add or remove a favorite.
  • Folders: your own folders, added with + Folder and scanned one level deep for canvas files. Group them under headings with + Category.

A search box filters the gallery, and a toggle switches between thumbnail grid and compact list views (your choice is remembered). Each card shows a file-type badge (rmic, prmic, or imc) and when it was last modified.

Every board keeps a version history. Open Time Machine (Ctrl + H, also the button in the top bar) to scrub back through earlier snapshots and restore one. The same snapshots provide the thumbnails shown in the Canvases launcher.
