P: Add Snapshot creation to History Pane

I have often found that it would be helpful to know which edits happened between different snapshots. For example: I make 10 changes to the original photo and create a timestamped Snapshot A. Then, I make 5 additional changes to various settings, and create timestamped snapshot B.

 

Currently, no "Snapshot [A/B] was created here" step shows up History pane. This means that I have no idea what changes I'm actually reversing if I go back to snapshot A from snapshot B at some point. I don't know what stage in the History I'm going back to.

 

It'd be helpful for snapshot creation to just show up automatically as a step in History—as it does already with an "Export" action.

 

A workaround (below, h/t @prbimages) basically involves creating a snapshot and then applying it immediately afterwards. Applying a snapshot does show up as a step in the History pane, which is why this works—but it'd be nice for snapshot creation to automatically show up!

 

  • Create a snapshot.
  • Make some editing change - any change at all will do.
  • Click on the History step just before the change you just made.
  • Right-click on that same history step, and choose "Clear History Above This Step".
  • Click on the snapshot in the Snapshots panel.
